As someone who is losing at both ends, I would prefer to know what is happening to me today than what happened to me in the ever-increasingly distant past.
I also choose Batman because of a BBC program in the series called Only Fools and Horses where in one episode the two main characters dress up as Batman and Robin. Will never forget the scene where they run across an empty parking lot!
Traditionally, I have always preferred the Summer Olympics but I do have to admit I thoroughly enjoyed watching the Snowboarding events with their spectacular crashes!
