I don't remember the Bat-mania. I was only five. However, I think it's kind of funny that, even though I was half your age, you weren't allowed to see Batman and I did. Should I have? Probably not. Oh well. Batman was the first fully live-action film I had seen in theaters. My first theatrical experience was Who Framed Roger Rabbit and the second was Oliver & Company (if my vague memories serve me). I remember liking this movie despite the fact that the joy buzzer part frightened me and I had to cover my eyes. It took me a few years to gain the bravery to watch that scene. Regardless, we got the VHS tape rather soon and I watched it many times.
