Taken from Titan Books' The Art of John Alvin (which goes on sale later this month), the following sketch is a never before seen poster design for Batman Forever. The acclaimed artist painted stunning posters for a number of big movies, and his designs, finished versions which were never used, and much, much more will all be included in the book. What do you guys think?



John Alvin’s movie poster art is among the most iconic of the last 40 years, from Disney films such as Beauty and the Beast and Pinocchio, to Empire of the Sun, Gremlins, Blazing Saddles, Predator, and Star Wars 30th anniversary posters. This book not only collects some of Alvin’s finest work, but also includes previously unseen comprehensives and in progress sketches.

This is probably a sacrilege but this is the most Batman of all Burton/Shumacher Batman movie's I'd even go so far to call it the best off that whole bunch.

Good find dude. I also do enjoy this movie fairly well. No where near my favorite, and not the best in the series.

Woah, some people are going to be confused cuz they think Batman got his start with Christopher Nolan.

That poster actually looks pretty cool. Don't see why they didn't go with it. I use to love watching this movie as a kid, but looking back, I would've liked any movie that gave me comic book heroes.

Which one was this one? Whatever. I don't think I saw it. I only saw the ones with Keaton. I still haven't seen the ones with Clooney or Kilmer.

This was probably my favorite of the Burton/Shoemacher films. I would've said Batman 89', but that movie really doesn't hold up.

Saw it in the theater. Jim Carrey was SOOO HUGE at that time, he could do no wrong

Clooney's Batman was just really terrible. Kilmer's batman was at least a bit tolerable

I think this is the one with Kilmer. This is not Bat nipples!

Yeah, the suits got nips on them, WTH? It's a Schoonmaker film.

Glad someone else caught that… Tim Burton would've made a much better Batman Forever movie.
His Batman movies are still my Fav live Action DC movies. Dark Knight is 3rd.

The problem with this film was just the overall designs of everything. Give it another design, keep the story as is and Batman Forever would probably have been a pretty awesome batman film.

I remember going to see this movie when I was a kid and being so disappointed in the tone change from Batman and Batman Returns (which were 2 of my fav movies). Must say I still feel exactly the same today as I did then. I think time has proven that a darker Batman is a better Batman and this light hearted foolish crap just doesn't work on the big screen for this character. The Burton films were great, Nolan films were Epic but the more cartoon like crap that reared it's ugly head in Forever, then went full on in Batman and Robin just sucked.

Batman forever has to be the 2nd best batman movies of the 90ths.

Don't care what anyone says, this is still the best live action Batman film to date. Jim Carrey was great in this movie, I don't care if he didn't play The Riddler, his performance was still entertaining.

"90ths"?

That Two-face blood writing on the wall is real? crazy

Neon Gotham City? Ugh. It's shocking anyone could have thought that was a good idea. Jim Carey playing the same cartoon character he plays in every movie. Batmobile driving vertically up the side of a building, oh, and the most cringe worthy evil plot imaginable, the brain wave sucking TV service thing. Wow this movie was terrible. It's been so long since I've seen it, all this horrendous crap is coming back to me in pieces... Ugh...lousy movie.
