This Bat symbol was everywhere that summer. This movie changed everything and imo still holds up.

So iconic, I recall attempting to draw it when I got home after seeing the film at the theatre.

So, is it just me, or does it look like an open mouth with a few teeth?

I got this movie from my neighbor when I was little, it was on VHS which had no subtitles.

I'm so partial to this movie! My family didn't go out for movies much but my mom bought a few VHSs and brought them home. This, along with Ghostbusters and Aliens. Thanks Mom!!

My older brother took me to see this when I was a young kid. It was one of the first movies I had seen in a theatre. Good times.

My older brother had the t-shirt from it. Then I wore it while wearing chicken pox and it became mine. I also remember begging my mom to buy me the cereal that was basically overpriced Captain Crunch.

I was the older brother who took my 5 year younger brother to see it. Also had the T-shirt. I'm not really sure where the t-shirt went.

If I didn't take him to the movies, we'd go down to the video store and get a couple bags of chips and rent cheesy B horror movies, like the Puppetmaster series or House "Ding Dong you're Dead."

It's still my favorite Batman movie by far. I miss those days.
