I read about this on Newsarama and the second and third commenters did make a good rebuttal that I too agree with.
They go as follows:
2. I think it’s pretty safe to say that any film featuring the characters Batman and the Joker will feature: Batman putting on a costume, Bruce Wayne with some hottie, the Joker taunting said hottie, Batman driving some kind of vehicle, the Joker with some weapons, the Joker smiling in an evil sadistic way, some cheesy one liners meant to inject some ironic humor, some shots of a city… i don’t know, I guess since Batman operates in a CITY… shall i keep going?
The thing that will be majorly different about this new Batman film? It’ll be ten times more awesomer. It won’t make Batman fans cringe 19 years later.

9:33 am3. This would make sense if the Batman 89 footage they used for this was the actual theactrical trailer .Since it’s an edited trailer, that was on youtube first about 4 months ago, it sort of negates it.(They also did a version cutting together Cesar Romero footage from the 1966 movie
It’s like comparing Telly Savalas and Donald Pleasence as Ernst Blofeld. You can make comparisons, it doesn’t mean it’s going to be remotely the same.

10:36 am You can find the true 1989 trailer
here.
I say stop with the remakes
How is it a remake?
'Batman' (1989) was inspired by '
The Dark Knight Returns.'
'Batman Begins' and 'The Dark Knight' are inspired by and
closely follows '
The Long Halloween.'
Harvey Dent wasn't even in the Tim Burton film. Oh, wait. Harvey Dent
was in the Burton film, played by Billy Dee Williams. Nonetheless, Harvey Dent will have a much larger role in this one.
