Just for fun really, they don't need to be exact. Onetime I used an analogy that Star Trek: Nemesis was like Batman & Robin and Star Trek (2009) would be like Batman Begins. So I went with that, and stretched it out all the way:
TMP = Batman (1966) - Go ahead, take that out of context.
I'm not talking about camp. It's related to the series by showing what happens after the five-year mission, is a result of the popularity of the series, and is produced by Gene Roddenberry. The movie's script was also originally meant for television.
TWOK-TUC = Batman (1989) and Batman Returns
The Bennett/Meyer/Nimoy era is like the Tim Burton era, particularly with Nick Meyer where you know if he's had a hand in the movie; literary references, blood, heavy use of red, and nautical detail. Tim Burton's movies are heavy on atmospherics and mood.
GEN-NEM = Batman Forever and Batman & Robin
Glitzy, flashy, not as much substance, at first these movies aren't so bad, some of them were even popular such as Batman Forever and First Contact but eventually they go down the wrong path and end up halting the series for several years.
ST2009 = Batman Begins
Starting over from the beginning (despite involving Leonard Nimoy), after a long absence, and directed/produced by those with far greater ambition for the scale of their movies.
