I dont think that was the real trailer for 1989 Batman, but if I am wrong, christ help us in the hunt for creativity.
Trailers for movies back then were pretty short. And they got even shorter.. Trailers were the only thing that made me go out and BUY DVDs vs. buying VHS tapes back then. I never got to see the trailers or forgot and Dvds usually have them. In any case, old movies that had trailers that I never saw cuz I wasnt born yet, were usually pretty darn short in length and quite horrible.
It made me wonder what invoked people to see certain movies on opening night.
