Synopsis:

To make a family friendly, obnoxious, out-dated, 1980s version of the first Batman movie by adding more Pop Songs and upping the color to be big and bright. What the Red Book Edition of Batman Forever and the De-Assified Edition of Batman & Robin did to those movies, 1980s Edition should do the opposite to Batman ’89.


Intentions:

To make a family friendly, obnoxious, out-dated, 1980s version of the first Batman movie by adding more Pop Songs and upping the color to be big and bright. Many of the creepy or overly violent scenes have been removed including Jack Nicholson as the Joker taunting a burnt corpse. The Joker’s killings are now limited to very few rather than many. What the Red Book Edition of Batman Forever and the De-Assified Edition of Batman & Robin did to those movies, 1980s Edition should do the opposite to Batman ’89.


Change List:

- Added the following songs: “Like A Virgin” – Madonna “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” – Tears for Fears “Burning Down the House” – Talking Heads “Bat Dance” – Prince “All Along The Watchtower” – Jimi Hendrix - Added the VHS Diet Coke Commercial and Warner Bros. Catalog Commercial to the front of the movie. - Now there is a “Kiddie Friendly” WB Family Logo - Heightened the color, everything is now at it’s brightest rather than being dark and gloomy. - Cut Bruce sleeping upside down. - Cut any sexual reference of Vicki and Bruce spending the night together. - Grissom is no longer seen, but only mentioned here and there. - Cut Opening Sequence of Batman introducing himself - Cut the death notice of the Candy twins - Cut the close up of dead Joker and his laughing bag. - Many more cuts, too many to count.
