You forgot that in the 90s, fans also got an excellent animated series that was on every afternoon after school that the campy movies were up against.
-
I'm with ya on Jim Carrey and Uma Thurman's performances.. over the top, chewing the scenery, a lot of fun.
-
RIP Joel Schumacher. He really did make some amazing movies and I’m glad this video is here as...a bit of a eulogy to his filmography.
-
RIP mr. schumacher 😓 Your movies weren't masterpieces but they still were entertaining. And that's something to be proud of. Batman forever is my guilty pleasure.
-
Another point: it's quite clear that the Lego Batman games are inspired by the Schumacher films and those games are incredible
-
Patrick in February: I need.... Hotter Takes! Everyone in July: Well... it's not like he didn't warn us
-
They improved with age because they are not formulaic. They are very original takes and the production design is freaking beautiful.
-
Thank you for calling him “Bill Finger’s Batman.”
-
If movies ever needed a defense lawyer, it would be Patrick H. Willems
-
They're the perfect movies to get drunk too.
-
Schumacher’s Batman and the 90’s Spider-man show jointly cemented my enduring love of puns. Even the groaners (like, everything Mr. Freeze says) make me smile. These movies knew exactly what they wanted to be, and I love them for it.
-
My biggest problem with these movies: the titles. The third movie should be titled “Batman & Robin”. The fourth movie should be titled “Batman 4Ever”
-
To me, Wesley Snipe's Blade was the true catalyst which truly influenced future comic book movies.
-
The Crow and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were both excellent comic book - film adaptations from this time period.
-
Today is a sad day. R.I.P. Joel.
-
The Riddler has always been my favorite super villain and it's all because of Jim Carrey's performance. God I love that version of the character.
-
“The villains aren’t misunderstood damaged outcasts” said with a shot of Mr Freeze who actually was a misunderstood damaged outcast as he was doing everything for his sick wife. I know this video is in defence of Batman and Robin but I feel dirty doing the same thing
-
the "how about slippery when wet" line made me laugh out loud tbh
-
I do love this idea of many different versions of Batman. I love how there’s a Nolan version, a Burton version, Schumacher, Snyder, 60’s, the animated series, tons of comics, lego Batman. It just goes on and on and never ends
-
I was obsessed with B&R when I was little. I loved the sets and the crazy colours and remade Ivy's lair for my barbie dolls. As for Batman Forever I still think it had the best film introspective to Bruce as a character. Val Kilmer wasn't the most convincing Batman but he's the best Bruce IMO.
