Batman (1989 film):
(Batman dangles a mugger over the side of a building)
Nic: Don't kill me! Don't kill me, man! Don't kill me! Don't kill me, man!
Batman: I'm not going to kill you. I want you to do me a favor. I want you to tell all your friends about me.
Nic: What are you?
Batman: I'm Batman.

(Jack Napier is confronted with Batman for the first time)
Jack Napier: Nice outfit!

The Joker: I have given a name to my pain, and it is Batman.

The Joker: Never rub another man's rhubarb.

The Joker: Tell me something, my friend. You ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?
Bruce Wayne: What?
The Joker: I always ask that of all my prey. I just... like the sound of it.
(shoots him)

The Joker: Have you shipped a million of those things?
Scientist at Axis Chemicals: Yes sir!
The Joker: Ship 'em ALL! We're gonna take 'em out a WHOLE NEW DOOR!

The Joker: And now, folks, it's time for "Who do you trust!" Hubba, hubba, hubba! Money, money, money! Who do you trust? Me? I'm giving away free money. And where is the Batman? HE'S AT HOME WASHING HIS TIGHTS!

(the Batwing is flying at The Joker)
The Joker: Come on, you gruesome son of a bitch! Come to me. Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Come on!

Batman: I'm going to kill you!
The Joker: You IDIOT! You made me. Remember? You dropped me into that vat of chemicals. That wasn't easy to get over, and don't think that I didn't try.
Batman: I know you did.
(punches him again)

batman arkham knight

The most Badass Batman game in the Arkham series by far.

This game brought many things to the table that the other games didn't.
Example: Bat-mobile, a new villain The Arkham Knight, interaction with many villains, a new Bat-Suit, and badass Bat-mobile/tank combat
Have you seen the new Batman game???
Oh you mean Batman Arkham Knight?
Hell yeah!

holy inflatable shark, Batman!

Interjection, similar to holy cow!

From the classic, campy Batman: The Movie starring Adam West. Robin (Burt Ward) had a habit of making strange exclamations (Holy Polaris, Holy Sardine, Holy Captain Nemo... you get the idea.

At one point in the movie, Batman is attacked by--you guessed it--an inflatable shark, against which he must defend himself whilst the faithful Robin runs to get the shark-repellent bat spray.

Should be exclaimed loudly and dramatically, for maximum campy effect.
Holy inflatable shark, Batman! Some days, you just can't get rid of a bomb.

When LOL is a bit too much, but you still thought it was funny, BATMN aka "breathing air through my nose" is a great response.

Batman Begins

Starring Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne / Batman. As of 2006, this could very well be the best Batman film to date. The term 'Batman Begins' is used in association with film remakes or restarts (within a franchise) that exceed their predecessors.
Casino Royale could be the 'Batman Begins' of the 007 franchise!
