The Original Batman

Yesterday was watching the end of an old Batman and Robin movie. It was in black and white and they were driving a '40 Ford in one scene and and '49 or '50 convertible Ford in another. the movie had some cars from the late 40's. It also involved a plane, a train full of explosives and and a wizard who lived on an island which they needed a sub too get too. Any of you remember this one? I didn't find much here on the H.A.M.B but a quick on line search reviles it was called Batman and Robin .vs the wizard. anyone remember it?

 

This looks like it!

 

yeah. sat morning here. i record them because i have work to do.
watching some of the old movies are funny.
seen early superman, different early versions of perry mason.
think there was a green hornet also.

 

@gsjohnny I saw that one too, The case of the stuttering bishop IIRC.

 

Here's the full length film.

 

Oh, and BTW it was a '49 Mercury convertible not a Ford.

 

If you look on YouTube, there are the various episodes from the 40s. I watched Episode 1 of one, can't remember which one. It was interesting comparing it to the 60s tv show (which I watched when it was new each day.)

{Note: if potential racial/ethnic "slurs" from the 40s offend you, avoid these serial movies. Keep in mind, these were made during the war years.}
