Long shot thinking maybe a -70+ year old might be here posting...

If you did and were a @10 year old kid, what did you think back then: was it great or lame.. as a teen was the 1949 better... in your 30's was the 1060's Batman Groovy?
How was Keaton's to Bale's Batmans.?

Were there 'ratings' back then, not for content, but how popular a serial was. If it made money and second was commissioned albeit 6 years later it must have been the bomb back then...

I saw this in the cinemas in the 1960's. I was disappointed as I was reading the comics back then and the characters just didn't look the same, and the show wasn't dark enough. I just thought the costumes were silly. Batman does not have big ears. (I wasn't very old)
