The Inebriated Animated Batman
A few years ago, my brother Tristan and I decided, for no particular reason, to try and make an animated Batman short. This is as far as we got.
I say, "my brother and I", but really he did most of the work. He did go to school for that sort of thing, after all.
We had a batcave toy from when we were kids, and a Michael Keaton Batman figure with a detachable costume. I don't remember if we set out to make something goofy, but once we realized that his knees were not posable, we decided to make him a drunk.
After about an hour or three of work, this 12-second clip was as far as we got, and as I've come to accept over the years, the furthest we ever will.
Below is a slightly longer director's cut of sorts. Tristan took all the footage (including what precious few seconds I cut from the one above), added some post-production, and made it fancy.
For more bizarre projects that me and my brother have done together, check out this amazing piece of music I created. Tristan snapped the photo above of Bruce "Michael Keaton" Wayne looking awesome with his single boot.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
