Believe it or not, I actually got some good laughs out of the toy commercial that is B&R (and even the director was jaded enough by what the execs did to it--that's right, it was no more Joel Schumacher's fault, if that, than it was Bob Daly and Terry Semel's--that he made a point of reminding everyone that they were shooting, in his very words, "a toy commercial"). Being a completionist, I was hoping to do the complete Burton-Schumacher quadrilogy myself at some point. Only, I would do a more thorough comparison between the fullscreen and widescreen versions and use widescreen shots where the fullscreen appears to be cropped from the widescreen.

Oh. But I must say, if I remember correctly, I noticed a closeup of the Batman himself in one of the earlier screenshot comparisons where it seemed the fullscreen was cropped at the left and right from the widescreen. IF I remember correctly.

The matte varies per shot and I posted that shot since it was the most cropped but it's still not worth replacing since it's not like a bttf or up situation.

Wow, the B&W regrade is such a great idea; it really does appear to amp up the film noir quotient, an element that I've always identified in Burtons take on the Caped Crusader. In addition, I think it may amplify that gothic, almost German expressionist vibe of those macabre cathedral scenes near the end.
Somewhat related, has anyone viewed Mad Max Fury Road: Black and Chrome edition? I know it was screened here in Toronto (at the Royal Cinema), and now is available for purchase on BD. Haven't viewed it yet, but looks like a worthwhile second (or my case 3rd) viewing.

Hey man, may I ask why it says cancelled?
If it was only the PCM sync, I might be able to help you out.
