Batman sure has come a long way since the 1940s.

“The Evolution of Batman In Cinema,” a cool supercut by Jacob T. Swinney, takes us on a quick tour of the Caped Crusader’s big-screen adventures — from the crude serials, to Christopher Nolan’s lavish spectacles, and, yes, Batman’s appearance in “The Lego Movie.”

Holy history, Dark Knight.
