Answer :

I liked all of those hokey “BIFF”....“BAMM”.....graphics when they were fighting. And the great Burgess Merideth as The Penguin. Also, when they made the first Batman movie in the late 80s, and it was announced that Michael Keaton would play the lead role, Mr. West was quoted as saying: “They didn’t even ASK me…..” Anyway, RIP, Adam. It was fun. Thanks.
