Notes:
(1) Barbara Gordon isn't a redhead, but a brunette. Her look's probably based on an actress they intended for the role at the time.
- I can't put my finger on who though.
(2) Robin here's a new character named Drake Winston.
- I like that. I'm the sort of person who gets annoyed by drastic departures from source material.
- No changes here: new character, new origin.

Notes:
(1) This doesn't feel like a continuation of the Tim Burton films.
- Possibly it's the coloring. There's a lot of pink and purple lighting that I more associate with the subsequent Schumacher films.
- Gotham doesn't look gothic either.
(2) The story drags in the middle, focusing on the Burnside slum and its locals.
- I don't care. I want colorful heroes and villains.

Notes:
(1) Once again, I need a break and palate cleanser from my slog through "Futures End" to finish DC's New 52.
(2) Supposedly, this is what the "lost" third Tim Burton "Batman" film would have been, with Billy Dee Williams as Two-Face and Marlon Wayans as Dick Grayson.
- Guess it's doing a "Superman Returns," which similarly ignored all the movies after Richard Donner.
