Guilty Pleasure
For those of us, who have yet to build our replica 89's (summer 06 start for me if my finances hold true, and I can get the mold.)I must confess this sordid, guilty pleasure of mine. I'm guilty of loading Danny Elfman's Score to Batman into my car's CD player and playing "Decent into Mystery" while I floor it on the open roads at night.
Gives me goosebumps when the fanfare hits.
Also I must say this,after much thought, is there a way that anyone can offer a larger 89 to people than the 1:18. After looking fondly at it for so long, and then seeing the size of the TYCO RC Tumbler, I wan't a larger 89 now. Sadly also the standard Hotwheels plastic light plugs are really a problem. Dave, I love your car, I do... but I now want at least a 1:6 or 1:7 model. I can't afford to bid on the Gary Kurtz car, if I bid on that it would demolish any hope of my replica project.

RE: Guilty Pleasure
Keaton Car I called Tyco last week to air that same concern.The guy who is in costumer service said if enough people do ask for a product it is listened to by marketing. It could have been a nice way to say F--- O-- like our Webmaster does.

RE: Guilty Pleasure
Don't forget about this...
Yes I still have it but only one car that will actually play a cassette tape. I guess I should buy the CDs.

RE: Guilty Pleasure

RE: Guilty Pleasure
For my money, the Prince CD is a waste, the Elfman Score is the better cd from the first movie, but overall I prefer the Batman Returns Score. Selina Transforms is a sad, lonely piece that really feeds you the birth of Catwoman well. The strings are used strongly in this track, also the death of Penguin is a standout as well.
From the first score, Decent into Mystery is best. I would like to have the last few moments of the finale track playing as my Replica's hood slides away on each side of the central beam, into the car's engine bay to reveal a shiny chromed and blue neon lit V8 and just as the engine canopy stops the final chimes strike and the fanfare pops. Awesome, very unlikely to happen due to cost, but I would like people to see the actual engine used without using a liftable shell.

RE: Guilty Pleasure
reveal a shiny chromed and blue neon lit V8 I'm sorry I thought you were talking about the 89 Batmobile. You should change your name to KilmerCar or ClooneyCar.

RE: Guilty Pleasure
I love the Prince soundtrack. Nothing brings me back in time quite like music does. I played that soundtrack over and over and over that summer.

RE: Guilty Pleasure
no don't think I will be doing that just yet. I just wanted a way of showing that there was a thing of beauty under the hood as well, and The Batman Score playing as the engine bay opened was one way to show up the Fast and the Furious wannabe's.

RE: Guilty Pleasure
You can never show the engine. It would kill the whole jet engine aspect. Now you wouldn't want to hurt any kids feelings, do you? BATDANCE.....

RE: Guilty Pleasure
Another guilty pleasure for me was the first time I saw the Keaton Batman Trailers in the movie theatre. Now that we have DVD and Pc / Mac editing tools, I would love to see someone here cut a new trailer for the Keaton films. Sort of an anniversary re-release dvd trailer, anyone up for that??????
It could be club CLTC exclusive trailer. To be only shared with people here. I nominate Tim's Blue go-kart icon as our official club icon.

RE: Guilty Pleasure
Seem like good idea.
Except I don't know how to do video editing. I'd love to put something together with Descent into Mystery playing in the background

RE: Guilty Pleasure
That is an EXCELLENT IDEA! Both of them are, actually. It will take me some time, but I will chisel away at it.
