THE SUMMER OF 92: BATMAN RETURNED

It has been 30 years since Batman Returns was released. It took over the world by storm in June, 1992..

Lines for the movie at the Schuylkill Mall even stretched back far beyond the Bonanza steakhouse..

A trigger warning on this post: You will feel the nostalgia if you lived through it.

We are hardpressed to say that any JOKER since 2003 has been as cool as ALL of the Jokers prior to that time frame.. Especially amazing, of course, is the Mark Hammil voiced Joker from the 1993 animated show..

In Huntington Beach, California, one theater cancelled two screenings Thursday night after receiving a threat, police said. Friday showings have resumed as scheduled.

In New York City, police responded to a screening after one audience member sparked fears by spitting on others and clapping loudly every time the Joker killed someone.

Fearing he had ill intentions, police escorted the man out of the theater. A witness reported that the man had poured a bottle of tequila into his slushie before the movie began.
