THIS is what all my Burton and Schumacher ideas have been building up to. What if, Joel Schumacher got to make his idea for a fifth and final Batman film with Tim Burton? Batman Unchained! This film will be inspired by what we know would've happened in the film, my own ideas, and this one LEGO fan film based on it that I remember watching on YouTube YEARS ago. After saving Gotham countless of times, The Batman Family must now face their greatest challenge yet, The Scarecrow, a masked villain who uses a special toxin that makes anyone infected by it experience their deepest, darkest fears. Not only that, the Scarecrow has assistants. Man-Bat, a dedicated scientist by day and an unknowing monster who serves Scarecrow by night, and Harley Quinn, a dangerous and colorful villain who reminds Batman of someone from his past all too well. Now, Batman, Nightwing, and Batgirl must journey into the darkest corners of their minds, face their fears, and come out stronger than before. Poster by TheBatAsylum2018 on Deviantart
