"Gentlemen, we will steal an advanced prototype aircraft. Oh no, that didn't work. We will steal the plans for it instead. No? We will seize control of a radium mine then. No? I know, we will rob the local bodega, that will surely succeed. No … ?"

I love this serial.
1.) The narrator is unashamedly racist.
2.) Bruce Wayne is a dick.
3.) Batman uses Robin as a decoy constantly, getting him beat up.
4.) Because it's a serial, Batman gets his ass kicked at the end of each episode.

The serials were the great-granddaddy of just about every form of movie and television show that nerds like me hold dear.
By the way, I saw JUSTICE LEAGUE last night. I know some people were disappointed. If you grew up with Frank Miller and... Yeah, I can't name a second one, it must suck for you. I grew up with Adam West and George Reeves. Try to think of it as a 21st century serial.
The Avengers battle over a cube-shaped object that represents unlimited power. The Guardians of the Galaxy battled over a sphere-shaped object that represented unlimited power. Redundant? I prefer to think of the geometrically perfect macguffin as an "archetype".
