Tim Burton, director of the 1989 version of “Batman,” still can not accept the “Batman Forever” in the Batsuit on the “too real” design elements, while scolding Warner Bros.
In an interview with Empire, Tim said, “They went the other way, and that’s what made it so interesting. But then I thought, ‘You complain about me saying my movie is too weird and too dark, and then you put nipples on a Batsuit? Fuck XX, go shoot it yourself.’ So that’s why I didn’t do a third one.”
“Batman Returns” raised concerns at Warner Bros. that the sequel to the critically acclaimed “Batman” was too dark, so they didn’t want to make another sequel under Tim Burton’s leadership.
But the talk of “Batman Returns” being too dark got Tim thinking about “The Batman”: “It’s funny to think about it now, because all the memories come back and “The Batman” is ‘too dark. ‘, which makes me want to laugh.”
“I’m not just too dark, in a sense, it represents myself …… it’s the way I see things. Not only that but it’s not meant to be pure darkness, it’s a mix.”
