Finally, a Batman movie I think I'll like.

Everyone has their own idea of who Batman is. Some grew up with Michael Keaton. Others Christian Bale. Now we've got Ben Affleck. Hell, I'm sure there are a few who have an affinity for Val Kilmer and George Clooney even.

But then there are Batman fans who go old-school, all the way to the Adam West days of the BATMAN television series. This new feature film from Warner Bros. Animation and DC Animation is perfect for them.

BATMAN: RETURN OF THE CAPED CRUSADERS takes the Dark Knight animated once again, only this time he'll be in Adam West form (and voiced by the Batman legend, too) as he battles the criminal masterminds of the Joker, Catwoman, the Penguin and the Riddler... and I'm talking Cesar Romero Joker, not Heath Ledger or Jack Nicholson. Julie Newmar is back to voice this yesteryear take on Catwoman with Burt Ward also participating as the Boy Wonder sidekick Robin.

He who is tired of Adam West is tired of life.

In other words, I look forward to enjoying this immensely.

And even an animated Julie Newmar Catwoman is better than NO Julie Newmar Catwoman.
