I recall reading somewhere when they made the “new” Batman movie with Michael Keaton there was some legal thing which basically banned Adam West from wearing his Batman outfit ever again.

I never heard about that happening to West, but that absolutely happened to Clayton Moore when the Lone Ranger Movie came out.

Really? Yeah I definitely remember hearing that because I remember always thinking how sad that is. I sort of understand wanting to rebrand the whole batman franchise into something cooler and wanting to distance it from the rather camp tv show, but still a shame nonetheless.
