The scene where Vicki tells Bruce that her feet are killing her

Am I the only one who is weirdly turned on by this scene:

Kim Basinger back in the day (and especially in this movie), really rocked the dark nylons and sharp heeled pumps (especially in the scene in her apartment, where she walks to open the door, not knowing that the Joker is at the other end). She was after-all, a spokeslady for the Golden Lady's pantyhose products. I'm guessing that Kim had such incredible legs in no small part due to her dance training.

Shout out to Bruce Wayne in the three-piece suit and wool peacoat. It’s the first time in the movie he wears something outside of the Batsuit that actually fits. All that pouring is heart out with a G.Q steeze was about to work until joker came and fuck it all up. Vicki chose to go with a long sleeve, boatneck, LBD. Showing off Basinger’s long legs and black pumps.

Kim was gorgeous in this movie. I was disappointed she didn’t come back for Batman Returns, even though I loved Michelle Pfieffer as Catwoman/Selena. They both should have been in it.

It's kind of super hard to find recent photos of Kim because she's kind of elusive now:

Trying to picture KB as VV in Returns looking like she did in 1992 (see Final Analysis or CoolWorld or maybe WaynesWorld 2).. it'd have to been Selina v Vicki over Bruce for abit.. then maybe Vicki gets killed by the Penguin while investigating Shreck/Penguin at about the 30minute mark (in some beautiful gothic/christmasy death with VV entombed in an ice sculpture or something). Batman wants revenge etc and teams up with Catwoman.

KB in 92

I like it. Only Burton could pull off a "beautiful gothic/christmasy death".

Somebody on Reddit made a theory that sometime in-between the events of Batman '89 and Returns, Vicki Vale died and Tom Petty is Jervish Tetch:

I don't think Vicki died.

I think she just couldn't handle Bruce's duality, and so she ran off to do something, or be with someone, more normal.

Maybe she joined Knox to investigate sightings of a super-powered being in Metropolis, or she travelled to the other side of the world to investigate a strange terrorist network led by a character called Ra's al Ghul and his daughter.
