In his honor, there should never be another Batman movie made. Ever. Ever.

Really.

Shining the Bat signal in memory of Mr. West.

Very sad news.

Adam West made that part what it was. He could be in on the camp, and yet brought a gravitas to the part that the kids picked up on and admired. Like all good fantasy, the larger characters showed us parts of ourselves we need to be aware of and guard against, such as pride and avarice. In Batman and Robin we saw goodness and comradeship, delight in helping others, and true humility. Yup, they don’t make even good camp anymore. RIP Adam West and thank you for giving us a character to remember and love.

I wouldn’t mind a complete moratorium on all superhero movies for a while, but then Hollywood would go bankrupt in short order. (I mean monetarily bankrupt, as they’ve already shown themselves to be creatively bankrupt for some time.)
