  • Six Batman Scripts -the good,bad,ugly!

    Read only parts of them.

    But I plan to study 6 of them this September 2009.

    Just doing a survey before I get started --

    I know, I might be asking a lot, maybe Script Shadow could do a special on this question.
    Okay, I know, I might be pushing it. I apologize in advance.

    How would you rate the the 6 Batman script from Best to Worst (or not so good)?
    • Batman (1989) by Sam Hamm and Warren Skaaren
    • Batman Returns (1992) by Daniel Waters
    • Batman Forever (1995) by Akiva Goldsman, Lee Batcher, Janet Scott Batcher
    • Batman and Robin (1997) by Akiva Goldsman
    • Batman Begins (2005) by David Goyer
    • The Dark Knight (2008) by Jonathan Nolan and Christopher Nolan
    Thanks.

    Nolan is also a writer on BATMAN BEGINS. Goyer only worked on the first draft and then Nolan did extensive rewrites, which is why it is a vastly better film than anything else that Goyer has written.

    Also, you're missing BATMAN: THE MOVIE and BATMAN: MASK OF THE PHANTASM.

      What about Aronofsky's "Batman: Year One" script?

                Well I believe the BYO script(s) is on LIMAMA's Mediafire account

                http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=5...a39ce5bd69a7b4

                But I just checked (haven't read it myself) and the ones uploaded there only have Frank Miller's name in the byline.

                Are you looking for the later draft that was written by both Aronofsky and Miller? Cause I don't know where to find that either.

                It'd be neat if someone organized all these so we could all participate with Ben in this grad school "Batman Seminar."

                And lastly, anyone else play through the XBOX360 (or PS3) game Batman: Arkham Asylum?
