It would be low key hilarious to have a Gotham major movie featuring only the least recognizable DC characters, somehow never interacting with Bruce Wayne, Comissioner Gordon, or anyone else.
Nah he's too underground for the mainstream. They'll never stop making Zippy the Pinhead movies to do something out of the ordinary like a DC comics film.
A quick google tells me there was a Weekly World News special on USA in 1995, and Bat Boy had his own segment.
Oh, and there was a musical at by Actors Gang in 97.
maybe he could have a secret identity named John T. Batman and have a job where he works at an office. he wears the bat ears to work but no one recognizes him because he's also wearing a shirt and tie
They could make a story about John Batman, the 18th century Australian explorer who exploited and killed First Nations people and died of syphilis. He founded the city of Melbourne (originally called Batmania). He spent his final years being pushed in a wheelbarrow and his nose had dropped off.
Ooohhh. That’s what *that* was about.
I went to Perth once and saw a train going to Batman. I wondered how it got its name, but didn’t wonder quite hard enough to ask anyone or Altavista it.
Only fun thing about him is Australian Federal electoral districts all have names, usually after something or someone to do with that area. So every federal election has a fun part where the TV coverage shows you who won the seat of Batman
My son’s number one purpose in life when he was 3 years old was to ensure everyone knew about Batman. His opening line to any conversation with a stranger would be “You know Batman?”. He did well.
I had to google this as I had never heard of it. I think it's too obscure. Not sure there's much of an audience for it. Maybe A24 or some other indie studio could get away with something so niche?
I'm not sure that's a good idea. Batman is a deeply complex character with a rich history and themes. Reducing him to a movie could oversimplify and misrepresent the essence of the comic book series.
After waking up from a crazy dream of turning into a fly when he was a younger man, Dr. Brundle (Jeff Goldblum) slowly turns into a bat after a botched experiment.
I'm not sure that's a good idea. The character of Batman is deeply rooted in comic book history and the movies have been faithful adaptations. Changing his origin or story could alienate fans.
So far, they've only made one*, but they HAVE made a bunch of "American James Bond but wearing a bat costume" movies, right down to the Q/gadget guy, lady du jour, one-off monologuing villain, exotic car, & tuxedo/casino scenes.
*"The Batman" was the only film in which he was an actual detective.

Those comics caused confusion and dismay and were quickly abandoned.
Later the gay community brought back “the bat man” as a gay costume which reignited the comic
I'd watch the hell out of that movie.
*Multiple* bad guys.
Now, this "Green Lantern" thing, on the other hand...
Also, can you give me your thoughts about this $100 bill, taped to the resume of my brother, Gabe?

Worth a try? It worked for ‘Supersonic Man.’

Heads up, not a good guy.
Ironically, "The Bat" was a villain in that movie, while "The Man Who Laughs" was the hero of his movie.
Or George Clooney?
That would be CRAZY!

It'd never make any money.
Better to make one about a serious comic like "Morbius".

YOU FOOL!
I'M BEING SUPER SARCASTIC!
