Don't get me wrong, the new Batman films are better written than the old ones, but I still prefer the earlier stuff for style. I loved the sickly-green neon-drenched style of Gotham and its deliberately over-the-top and exaggerated people and architecture, like someone got the set design and costumes for a Cirque du Soliel performance mixed up with a Frank Miller script. It was weird, borderline alien, and FUN in an intense comic style. I loved Michelle Pfeiffer's insane (literally) Catwoman for just that reason, and next to that, Anne Hathaway may be more realistic, but she's certainly way more vanilla. Just a matter of personal taste, I guess.
