Here's my 2 cents...

Jim needs to stop thinking that what is needed is some big spectacle. The show should be about story and music. Not about flying motorcycles and Russian acrobats. Spending $15 million didn't make DOTV a success and spending a huge wad of cash to put a noisy load of flash on stage won't make Bat a success... it will just make it harder to make back enough investment to make it a successful show. People will go see a show with a great story and music even if it doesn't have a lot of special effects... but a crappy story with a bunch of flying Russians and motorcycles doing acrobatics won't draw crowds...

That's how I see it anyhow.
