Batman: Arkham Knight - Ranking All Batmobiles From Worst To Best

2. 1989 Burton

Everything about this car is just perfect. It's long, it bears a hot-rod type feel, it's gothic, it sounds great, and it's topped off all with a hauntingly beautiful theme penned by the great Danny Elfman. It doesn't really get more iconic than this. It's only suitable then that this iteration of the car got its own turn in Rocksteady's magnum opus, complete with Elfman's theme and the batsuit sported by Keaton in his entrance to the franchise. The racetracks cover Burton's first two films as well, most notably the Joker parade and the final sequence from Returns. Better still, you can also take the '89 car into the game's main story, but only once you've dealt with the copious amounts of drones that occupy Gotham at the time of Knight's events.
Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
