Adam West will always be the only Batman in my book. He was there for the kids, he wasn't part of some multi-national corporate conglomerate pumping out cookie-cutter CGI-laden flicks for mass audiences, he seemed like a genuinely nice guy, and his batman didn't have some sort of weird speech impediment that required him to whisper all of the time.

There is no point at which Disney's Cinderella wears a royal cloak of kingfisher feathers to the Spring Festival either, or even a scene in which she calls all the birds under heaven to gouge out her stepsisters' eyes.
