Another Entertainment Tonight segment from 1989... This one focuses on the booming business of movie merchandising. Batman is of course mentioned (albeit briefly). And sorry Leonard- Even though I LOVED Dick Tracy, it didn't come close to the Batmania of '89. *Credit to "Ghosthead" Alex Newborn (AKA youtube user LexTheRobot) for this great clip!

The Joker Parade Sequence Storyboards
Part 2
Another special feature brought to you by 1989Batman.com and Batfan Thorsten Lehmann- The Joker Parade Storyboard Sequence! Over the next few weeks, we will be posting a collection of storyboards detailing an early version the Joker parade float sequence from the film. These storyboards were created from an earlier version of the script and differ quite a bit from what ended up on the big screen.
Since there are a large amount of storyboards for this pivotal scene, the sequence will be broken up across multiple posts. Today's post features Vicki and Knox discovering Joker's hidden plot. Enjoy!
