Adam West may have made some Batman movies, I don't know since the
last Super Hero movie I saw was one about Superman that had a scene
that I didn't appreciate the movie makers having in that movie.

Since then I haven't paid to watch any of the recent Super Hero's flicks
because the portions of those movie(s) I've seen Advertised on Television
have turned me off.

To me, these Newer movies have ruined the Ten Cent Comic Book Super Hero's
I read about when I was a youngster.

When I saw the phrase 'is the only "real" Batman' my mind drifted back
to going to the Crescent Movie Theatre in Saint Matthews (Louisville),
Kentucky in the mid-1960's.

The Movie was a Black&White Batman Serial made around 1938 and they
showed every one of the Episodes from the First to the Last.
And Yes, I sat and watched them all and enjoyed it too.

I haven't checked imdb.com to see if that was the earlist Batman movie
made.
There may be a Batman movie prior to that Serial, I don't know........

Did You go to the Crescent on Frankfort Avenue and watch Batman back then?
