Found this matte painting on ebay of a Gotham that looks a little more like 89



Batman Returns Script (not sure which revision)

I found this catalogue of movie props that were on display for an auction a few years ago. We get a good look at the Batmobile discs that were used to strike against the some of the Red Triangle Gang members.

Christopher Nolan: He breaks it in...

Jonathan Nolan: ...the first two.

This video shows concept art that was never used. The only pictures I hadn't seen before were the sketches of Batman gliding with his cape and having yellow eyes, and a Catwoman mask made for Annette Benning.

I don't remember this photo of Michelle Pfeiffer in make-up was seen before, but it's the first time I've looked at it. Naturally, she looks great.

Holy crap, Penguin as a kid was shot on film with the parents. I never knew this was planned, nor did I know these film dailies even existed. But unlike the shots of Batman driving the Batmobile, the frames on the left appear to be screen tests.



All I could find out about the actor who played young Oswald was her name was Nitko Botelho, and she played one of the Penguins who discovered him as a baby at the end of the opening credits.

Now I'm curious to know if there were any actual scenes of this deleted concept got filmed at all.

Great find!

That's new to me. Pretty cool to see these images though. I don't recall reading about anyone associated with the film speaking about extended sequences involving baby Oswald, but who knows? Maybe? I guess there could've been a sequence where we see the Cobblepots loading Oswald up for the sewer trip, but was eventually nixed due to redundancy. As we already get the idea that the Cobblepots, clearly, find their son to be an abomination.
