I’m watching every offering in the Batman canon so that I can discover my favorite Batman and unfortunately I hateeee Tim Burton movies but I am a completist so I prevailed. And it was terrible. That being said, Michael Keaton was a GREAT Batman.

Something I really like about the older Batman movies is how much Gotham City doesn't even look like a place people can live. In Batman (1989) it looks more the inside of a factory and in Batman & Robin (1999) it looks like the fucking Guggenheim

Call me crazy but I think the canceled Tim Burton Nicolas Cage Superman film, Superman Lives, could've been something special. 

Do I think it would've changed the world or been on the same tier as Batman '89? No, not really. However, it's hard to not think of the potential that this film would've had. Tim Burton always had stellar visuals, design, and set pieces for both Batman '89 and Batman Returns, along with stellar scores that elevated both Batman films. And since those things are consistent across both Burton films, I think it's fairly reasonable to say that this canceled Superman film would've had the same strengths. 

What would've made this film special, though, is Nicolas Cage himself. People love him, man. He's effortlessly cool and he manages to be the best part of almost anything he's in, regardless of how good or bad those projects are overall (i/e: The Ghost Rider films). I think regardless of dark, gritty, or even how campy this movie would've been, there would've at least been a collective opinion of "the overall film leaves a lot to be desired, for whatever reasons, but man, Nic Cage's Superman was so damn cool".

So, yeah, it may be an unpopular opinion and a small thought but I think that the canceled Tim Burton Nicolas Cage Superman film was a missed opportunity. It might've not changed what Superman films should be, but it definitely would've had an impact on the superhero fanbase and superhero genre all these years later. The creative duo of Tim Burton and Nic Cage probably would've introduced some insanely cool ideas that although they shouldn't work on paper, they absolutely did work regardless of the odds against that film. And on top of that, due to the likely brave decisions they would've made, it probably would've had an impact on what Superman films could be today. It's the cult classic film that could've been real special.
