The Ultimate 1989 Batman and Batmobile Are Here

Everyone has their Batman. The Batman they grew up with and made them fall in love with the character. Maybe it’s from a specific comic book artist: Jim Lee, Frank Miller, etc. Or maybe it’s from a specific series: Adam West, Christian Bale, heck, even Robert Pattinson. I know this is true because, well, it was a joke in the movie Neighbors, and also because my Batman has always been Michael Keaton.

The star of Tim Burton’s two Batfilms released in 1989 and 1992, Keaton is the actor I associated with Bruce Wayne more than any other. Even when I went back to watch the Adam West TV show, or bought a ticket to the Christopher Nolan films, it’s Keaton’s take that has continually given me the nostalgic wonder.

Which is why I freaked the heck out when I saw him in The Flash trailer this week, and apologized to my credit cards when I saw what you’re about to see.

Hot Toys just revealed brand new 1/6th scale collectibles of both the Michael Keaton Batman and his trusty Batmobile. As with most Hot Toys, these are not cheap ($279 or $349 for the figure depending on which version you get, $715 for the Batmobile), but even if that’s understandably way out of your price range, you can still bask in their glory. Check ‘em out.

The Only Version of Return of the King Worth Watching Missing From Max After Streaming Bug

Screenshot: Warner Bros. Bad news for Max subscribers who’ve made re-watching The Lord of the Rings extended editions an annual New Year tradition: the third film in the trilogy, The Return of the King — which just celebrated its 20th anniversary! —is only available to stream in its theatrical version. No ancient evil is to blame, thankfully; it’s an unspecified “tech issue,” according to a Max spokesperson who responded to a comment request from Vulture after the issue was noted by dismayed fans on Reddit . The fact that The Return of the King extended edition is merely temporarily unavailable is actually good news given Max’s track record for removing content in the past, and the explanation makes sense considering The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers remain available in both their theatrical and extended editions. The Max spokesperson assured Vulture that The Return of the King extended edition will be, ah, returning soon to the service, though as of this writing i
