Line 20:
** In Daniel Waters' original treatment, the initial attack on Gotham Plaza is a lot more elaborate, with the thugs invading before the tree-lighting ceremony begins and infiltrating Max Shreck's penthouse office, taking Max, Chip, the Mayor and Selina hostage. Batman has to fight his way up to the penthouse level to save them, in the process leaving the Batmobile behind in an alley... but forgetting to put the shields up on the car. Even more of the Penguin's thugs then approach the exposed automobile and take photographs of it (thus providing an explanation as to how The Penguin got the blueprints to the Batmobile). The novelization indicates the Penguin got the plans from a disgruntled engineer who helped design it.
** One early script describes Penguin as a tall, dignified-looking man.
** [[Dustin Hoffman]] was reportedly interested in playing the Penguin. It was actually [[Jack Nicholson]] who suggested to [[Tim Burton]] that he cast [[Danny De VitoDeVito]] (whom Nicholson had recently worked with in ''Hoffa'').
** Burgess Meredith (who played Penguin in the 60's ''[[Batman (TV series)|Batman]]'' series) was considered to play Penguin's father; however, he was unable to appear due to complications resulting from lung cancer.
* [[Working Title]]: ''Dictel''.
