We never noticed that we were too busy wondering how Batman and Robin changed into their costumes while sliding down the bat pole back then that was the biggest mystery 😂

@KVNDV1 Год назад

In the BATMAN (1966) movie, this is “explained” by Adam West’s Bruce Wayne pulling down an “Automatic Costume Changer” lever which presumably puts the Bat-outfits on him and Burt Ward’s Robin as they slide down to the bottom and leap out towards the Batmobile. It can be reversed as when Bruce/Batman gets on the bottom cushion and rides it up towards the sliding bookshelf in the study at Stately Wayne Manor. Alfred uses a service elevator but it is never shown where the entrance door is at the Manor. Presumably it has false buttons so that Aunt Harriet wouldn’t accidentally ride down into the Batcave🦇

Television and movie productions repeatedly using “stock footage” to save a few bucks….SHOCKING!

@majorneptunejr Год назад

This was one of the first things I noticed about this show. Especially since the show was on every day when I was kid. They could have film several versions back to back, to be used later. That would cost, more but not a whole lot. I think they didn't care if people noticed. It added to the charm.

@ricknineg Год назад

Did girly, the show had a mega charm

@kevin10001 Год назад

They probably reused the shot of hubie and Burt leaving the cave in many episodes cause it saved money and they could put the credits over it for the episode telling who the villain/villains were and written by stuff like that and not have to shoot different ones for each episode

@Octoberfurst Год назад

I wondered the same thing too. When they were filming the original scene of the Batmobile arriving they could have done a number of different takes that same day. Just have different people walking around and have Batman getting out of the vehicle first and then do one with Robin getting out first. You could have like 30 takes of it and even if you used the same one more than once no one would notice.

@francisdhomer5910 Год назад

@@kevin10001 I think it would have been fun to have them slide down the wrong pole. In the Batcave Batman would be dressed as Robin. Yep, I would totally have done that as the director.

@TRealDC Год назад

@@Octoberfurst I'm an actor - trust me when I say that 30 takes, even of this simple 'arriving' section, could take a half-day, possibly more: You're resetting 15-20 people & rechecking the heavy, cumbersome lighting, resetting props etc. You're using up 'miles' of physical film (not video tape). Who knows what the Batmobile itself needed between takes. There would have been numerous outtakes where someone stumbles, the Batmobile stops in the wrong place, Adam gets his cape caught, etc. Shows like this would have tight timelines. I've worked mostly on budget shows where we've done 18-page days, as opposed to a more regular 8-12! This stuff is knocked out as fast as possible! Finally, the budget on this would have been small; you simply can't afford this kind of indulgence. Check out almost any TV show - even more modern ones. That X-Files 'outside the FBI' establishing shot, that (pick a show) 'THE CAPITOL - DAY' shot... Lucifer's aerial shot of his club at night - they're usually the same in their particular series, for exactly these reasons.

@YAZZYUTUBE Год назад

I never noticed that it was the same scene being repeated, but I do remember asking my dad after seeing that in different episodes how was it possible there was always a parking space available in front of police headquarters just when Batman was arriving.

@willjackson3432 Год назад

They probably keep that space available just for Batman. Or maybe the Commisioner tells O Hara to go out and move his car every time he calls Batman just so he can get there quicker. Even if the Mayor was parked there, his car's getting moved.

@outsider238 Год назад

They also use the same scene over and over of Batman and Robin exiting the Batpoles and getting into the Batmobile. You can tell because of the way Robin opens the door of the Batmobile.

Another giveaway. Robin's wearing the Kelly Green suede gloves he only wore in the pilot.

It wasn’t reused that much cause the show did get complaints of Adam and Burt not wearing there seatbelts so after the complaints they reshot the getting into the batmobile where they put on there safety batbelts as the show called them

@lelandframe1029 Год назад

Sometimes they would change the star field background, but they used two of those REALLY often! One has three stars arranged to look like Orion's Belt in the real-life constellation of Orion, and another is usually used at the end of the episode, with the Enterprise (from the second pilot) "sailing off into the sunset", as it were, but off to the right-hand side is a constellation that I call "The Cosmic Coke Bottle"--because that's EXACTLY what it looks like! (At least to me!) 😆

@chefskiss6179 Год назад

Nice catch. One big reason for reusing scene(s) was because COLOUR film processing was sooo expensive at the time. Let's remember, tape was so expensive that Dr Who would tape over existing tape used for the show. Some episodes don't even exist because of this. Even the old Battlestar Galactica show in the 70's did this, they used the same pre-shot fighter ship scenes from the movie and kept using it over and over...

Certainly I noticed that the beginning of all the part ones of the two-part Wednesday Thursday Batman show in the first two years were the same. From the hop from the bat poles into the Batmobile and to the Commissioner's office, it was the same. And definitely exciting and enjoyable and very superhero-y! I loved it, especially the Batmobile"s atomic battery. "Battery to power, turbine to speed," Rnobin said. I'm sure things changed in the third season when it was only on one night a week and with the coming of Batgirl, but I much recall this fine footage, even as the credits rolled. Thanks for the 1966-67 flashback! Keep up these deep dives into the Caped Crusaders' world. And let's be hopeful.

Hey Rick, great episode, as always! And yes, I have noticed the stock footage in the opening scene of the first episode of the 2-parters, where the Dynamic Duo arrive @ Gotham City Police Headquarters. Admittedly, though, I think I have an unfair advantage, because I literally just binge-watched the entire Batman '66 series (finished around June this year). And I must say, I watched it with "R9G-eyes;" that is to say, I watched it for things like bloopers, costume and prop re-uses, and other fun facts. More Batman, please!

I love all the Batman show trivia! It was my favorite show as a kid and I still get a kick out it 40 yrs later! I noticed recently that in an early episode, Batman has to prop open the trunk on the Batmobile to get something out but later the trunk stays open by itself, so things do change during the show. I also wonder why sometimes they show Robin doing the pre-drive checklist in the Batcave and sometimes they don't. They also later added a scene where they put on seatbelts, so was that an effort to promote safety? Seatbelts only became standard in US cars in 1964.

That is common in MANY shows. Sometimes during the one shoot they might have taken 3 or for different angles, but more often it is just the same exact shot inserted at a huge $avings. It is amazing how expensive such simple shots can be. "Little House on the Prairie" used the same train over and over--Sierra #3 as well as the train station with a water tower you can recognize from "Petticoat Junction". The same shots pulling out of the station, whatever city was portrayed, would show the same little mountain in the distance. Studios would accumulate a collection of various stock footage ready to use like menu items in any films they made or sell to other studios. This was smart business.

I remember it being a reused scene, though I do think the way it was used makes sense --having a familiar scene that the audience didn't have to pay too much attention to makes a good background for what's really being shown: the title of the episode and the credits for the guest stars. Even if the real reason was to save money, I still think it's a clever way to reuse something to draw attention to what made each episode unique in their own right.

The Brady Bunch did this with a reuse of dog Tiger's bath in two different episodes! If you read Eartha Kitt's biography she mentioned that the show wanted her to drive a special "Catwoman Car" and asked her if she could drive a standard transmission car. To get the job she just said she could and went on to say that she and a friend rented a Volkswagen Beetle and stayed up most of the night before the filming practicing in an empty parking lot until she got it down! Then as she said and what you can see from the scene she and The Joker are only in it for about 20 - 30 seconds as they drive away! Hahaha!

@toddmccreary4579 Год назад

I know in the two episodes with Tiger's bath one was when Jan was allergic and he ended up with four baths but they did reuse the one where Alice gave him the bath to set up the later joke when Tiger after the bath and still wet rain past and got the trading stamps Alice gave the kids, stuck to him when the boys thought the girls took them and the girls thought the boys took them.

Except for certain close-ups or scenes of the Batmobile arriving at a destination, Adam West never drove the car. It was only Hubie Kerns, Adam's stunt double and stand-in, who drove it. Good thing, too, as the Batmobile's steering linkage had a tendency to break. Kerns could also be seen driving the Batcycle in head-on shots taken from a truck rolling in front of the cycle.

Yes it is noticeable and I suppose as a child growing up I might not have noticed or even cared. I now have been rewatching it on tubitv.

saving money by reusing footage was a common thing back then. it was the reason in westerns for example that the actors always wore the same outfits so they could reuse footage of them riding instead of shooting it for every episode. the budgets were really small for tv shows back then, for example the budget for star trek the motion picture was more than all 3 seasons of the show

It has been rumored that the Joker stole each of the unique footage and substituted the same footage in each episodes that is why he is laughing throughout his episodes. Laughing at his secret inside joke. He is so dastardly evil!

I did notice that after a few episodes. I was always into detail since a young age.

There are a LOT of " re-used" scenes-- like the arriving in front of the City Hall in the Batmobile-- and more..

Took a WB studio back lot tour 2 years ago and they actually let us get out and take pictures on the steps of the building (still looks exactly the same). I geeked out because I loved this show as a kid. the tour guide also told us it was only filmed once but used in almost every single episode.

They Did it all the time back during the 60's to save money like you said.. several tv shows did it.. including adam-12

Oh yeah, how about background on 'My Favorite Martian' and the antenna special effect? I watch the reruns from time to time and each time he raised his antenna I looked for the trick.

I was always aware it was the same scene over and over. What puzzled me and still does is what is causing the cloud of smoke that comes drifting in.

Yes I've noticed it many times, unless you watch the episodes back to back you really wouldn't notice. I find it fun to look for bloopers and things like this 👍🏼

I love your videos, Rick, especially the "deep dives" like this one. Sadly, though, I have to say I had noticed this one before. Not as a kid, but at some point years ago I noticed it was re-used footage.

@ricknineg Год назад

Def not a sad thing. You just happened to notice, sharp eyes you have. It’s such a great show! 😃

There was a Saturday morning cartoon about a motorcycle stunt man where after every jump they cut to the same crowd cheering - I noticed that but never noticed this multi use in Batman...
