Acknowledgement
We wish to express our gratitude to the enemies of crime and crusaders against crime throughout the world for their inspirational example. To them and to lovers of adventure, lovers of pure escapism, lovers of unadulterated entertainment, lovers of the ridiculous and the bizarre...to fun lovers everywhere this picture is respectfully dedicated.
If we have overlooked any sizable group of lovers, we apologize. (edit) This is the first time that the villans, The Penguin, The Joker, Catwoman & The Riddler, gather together to go up against the Caped Crusaders. (edit) According to The Official Batman Batbook guide to the series, Burgess Meredith ad-libbed the line at the end of the scene where the Penguin dehydrated the pirates: "Careful! Every one of them has a mother!" (edit) Much like Aunt Harriet, the series' narrator has a very limited part in the movie. He appears only at the beginning of the movie after the title credits. (edit) People rarely died over the course of the Batman TV series, but, the movie scored a whopping body count of six! The Penguin's pirate who meets his end at the hands of the exploding octopus and the 5 dehydrated rehydrated pirates. Also in a rare turn, Bruce threatens to kill each member of United Underworld if they harmed Kitka. (edit)

(Batman and Robin stick to the buoy)
Robin: Holy gluepot! What's going on?
Batman: The fiends. They've converted this buoy into a giant magnet. Pinning us by the metallic objects in our utility belts! (edit) Joker: Riddler. Where are you going?
Riddler: To fire off some more of my riddling clues, of course!
Catwoman: Riddler. You're mad! Penguin's finished Batman by now!
Riddler: That miserable waddling mountebank of a bird? He couldn't finish a bag of popcorn!
Joker: So, say Penguin failed! All the more reason not to hand them your crazy clues!
Riddler: But, I must. I must! Outwitting Batman is my sole delight. My joy. My heaven on earth. My very paradise! Hee hee hee hee hee! (exits)
Joker: Riddler, come back!
(edit) (In lair after Joker, Riddler and Penguin stopped fighting)
Catwoman: United Underworld. We're about as united as the members of the United World Headquaters on Gotham East River! What's the matter with you all?
(edit) Riddler: You and your trained exploding shark.
Penguin: How should I know they'd have a can of Shark Repellant Bat-Spray handy? Why you snivelling sardine?
Riddler: You pompus, puffed up Penguin! (edit) Robin: You risked your life to save that...riff raff in the bar?
Batman: They may be drinkers, Robin. But they're also human beings and may be salvaged. I had to do it. (edit)

It is claimed that the Penguin's submarine purchase was a pre-atomic model. The first atomic sub was put into action in 1951. The Peguin's sub sure looks far more sophisticated than something built for WW II. Also, the sub fires POLARIS missiles many times over the course of the film. These were developed in 1960 for the express purpose of launching nuclear warheads. These facts together make it rather odd that such an old sub would have the capability to do submerged to air or surface to air launches of any missile. Any sub made before 1950 would not have been designed to launch missiles but to fire torpedoes, horizontal tragectory based projectiles, only. (edit) During the final Batboat sequence, when the Riddler fires off one last POLARIS missile to take out the Dynamic Duo, someone inverted the stock footage film when it was fed in. This results in a mirrored image of the word POLARIS printed on the side of the rocket. (edit) When the Penguin slides down on his umbrella handle and tackles Batman on the deck of the submarine, there is some kind of smudge on the camera lens in the upper right corner. It only lasts for this sequence, but, it is present the entire time. (edit) During the fight sequence aboard the submarine, there are several instances where Batman is seen from the back. Look closely and the seam that runs along the back has started to tear open in several scenes. (edit)

Bruce Wayne: And all my days are trances, And all my nightly dreams...Are where thy dark eye glances, And where thy footstep gleams.

Bruce Wayne quotes Edgar Allen Poe's To One in Paradise to Kitka in her borrowed penthouse apartment--except he replaces the word gray with dark. (edit)
