The Batmobile is arguably the most iconic vehicle in the history of entertainment. Batman historian Glen Weldon (Pop Culture Happy Hour) takes a look at every Batmobile that's appeared on television and the silver screen. Glen gets into Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher's takes on the vehicles, why Christopher Nolan transitioned from the Batmobile to the Tumbler, and why the 1966 Batmobile remains so iconic even to this day.
Glen Weldon is the author of The Caped Crusade: Batman and the Rise of Nerd Culture, and Superman: The Unauthorized Biography. He’s a culture critic on the NPR Arts Desk, and a panelist on the NPR podcast, Pop Culture Happy Hour.

The TUMBLER version I like the best. Never could figure out why they could not figure out how to get rid of the squealing tires on take off as it is Jet Propelled. Nothing to do with tire friction.

I've always believed the only point of the Snyder Batmobile was to show how impossibly strong Superman is. they just stuck fins on a battering ram and then made it plow through anything and everything you could think of with relative ease and then get crumpled like a tin can when hitting one man.

IMHO Most iconic Batmobiles 1. West's Batman Version: Mid century aesthetic meets cartoony/pop art. It's a big toy car. 2. Burton's Batman: Such a beauty. SR 71 in car form. 3. Nolan's Batman: A beast of a machine. Very intimidating. The other cars seems to be a mish mash of these iconic designs. But im liking the new Matt Reeves Batmobile. A muscle car is a fun choice. Hope it's as awesome as it looks

Nolan & Snyder both made sure that the audience could barely see the batmobile on screen. Either the camera only showed the batmobile for 1/2 second before cutting away, the angle was so extreme that you couldn't see its proportions, or there were deep shadows on the car and bright lights shining into the camera. And then they were trashed at the end of their scenes. The only reason I know what those designs look like is due to the publicity photos that were taken to actually show off the car. Say what you will about the 1960's show, or the Tim Burton films - at least you got to actually see the car for more than a second and got to know it a little on screen.

I own the massive hot toys model of it, the 1:18 Hot wheels elite and numerous small versions. I absolutely adore it. The 1989 Batman phenomenon, wow, remember it like yesterday. Even hearing a snippet of the Prince soundtrack album brings up mental images of that movie.....a masterpiece.
