This dictionary seems to be more comprehensive than Google.
It helped me come up with "Modiste Folle" for "Mad Hatter" (literally, "Insane Milliner"). Hilarious.
This guy has an excellent 1966 Batmobile rendered in Lego; might be able to get some ideas for our own version here.

Things to keep in mind, these from reading I've been doing:
1) In all the scenes of the villains' hideouts, the camera filmed at an angle, almost "crooked" (the shot is known as "canted"). This was because all the villains were also crooked.
2) Each main villain had their own theme music. (Remember to pull out samples for Jackson.)
Some good lighting ideas on a budget. link
Basically, whack together some 2x4s and get some clamp lights. They suggest floods from Home Depot, but I would look into getting some temperature-balanced photo flood bulbs and see if they're affordable. I think that's what Robert Rodriguez used on "El Mariachi".
At least at this early stage, one of the main reasons I started this blog was to keep track of the scraps of information and online resources I come across for the project. Hopefully I'll remember to label the posts appropriately as well with codes such as "Lego", "1966Batman" (for posts that refer back to the 1966 show and its assets), "French" (for language resources), and "fanfilms" (for general reading about fan-made films). This particular post has 'em all.
