Nah see, the Batman THEY grew up with was a dark action drama. Most likely late silver age stuff, Frank Miller, yadda yadda. Batman's early adventures were a lot more PULP than dramatic, murder mysteries yes but rather campy ones. Also they'd write EVERY action Batman did, like in old Radio Shows where it worked because that medium didn't have a visual aspect, but HERE it comes off unnecessary and awkward. And for a while Campy Batman was the norm, until Marvel came around and introduced character development to the medium, FORCING Batman and the rest of DC comics to have real character driven arcs than heroic driven ones. And let me ask you, do you think there weren't people who complained about lack of camp and got darker? Of COURSE there were, and had the same arguments as you "Its not my Batman".

And dude, there's a LOT worse with the new movies than them mimicing the 87 show. Honestly they're kinda terrible in their own right.
