Behind the Bat: 23 Behind-the-Scenes shots from 1989's Batman Movie

1989 was a lot of things. Big hair, neon colors, and cassette tapes - but it was also the year the world was swept up by an unshakeable fever, commonly diagnosed as "Batmania". Before the days of the cinematic universe, Tim Burton's "Batman" swooped into cinemas and captured the imaginations of fans globally, introducing them to a darker, quirkier vision of the caped crusader. It wasn't just a movie; it was an all-encompassing obsession - from T-shirts to cereal boxes, the bat-symbol became an emblem of pop culture coolness.

Now, journey with us to the shadows of Gotham's alleys, the corners of Arkham's spookiest cells, and the heart of Burton's unique vision with these 23 behind-the-scenes shots. They're not just photos, they're a time machine back to the epicenter of "Batmania"!
