In a behind-the-scenes clip from the 1989 Batman set, Tim Burton and Michael Keaton comically debate the logistics of the Caped Crusader performing the mundane task of using a normal phone. They conclude it's funnier for Batman to maintain his intense persona, making the act of holding a phone "kind of weird" but a necessary part of a "normal" moment for Bruce Wayne.
