We all know that Batman & Robin can't be fixed, but here is an interesting video clip that attempts too.



The film is PERFECT the way it is - it's Batman Forever's "mean twisted soul" revealed without "dark Wayne moments/Dick Grayson character scenes" pretensions.  ;D I would remove ONE thing, just ONE thing - the bad saxophone music that is heard every time Poison Ivy appears. This sax is even worse than the music heard in "erotic" scenes of bad B-grade DTV cop thrillers of the 90s.

The video was actually pretty good. Even though there's no way on Earth to fix all of Batman & Robin, it's nice to see people give it a try at certain scenes. 8)

You know what's one thing that bugged me about this film? Besides all of it. lol.
Was that they used what's her face to play Batgirl. >_<  I have a dirty name for her but I wont say it here as hilarious as I find it to be in my own childish mentality.

And I really didnt understand what the point was of giving her a cool Batgirl cowl, when she only used it in one small clip that lasted seconds before she ended up using the robin-like face mask. UGH!!! KEEP THE COWL ON YOU FREAK!
lol... ok, rant over.

Yeah, the costumes made me want to say "Good Lord, man!" I think Freeze had it the worst, though, butt plate & all. :P

(Why bash Ms. Silverstone? She's hawt! 8))

Not to mention his wonderful lines.  "Stay CCOOOUUUHHHLLLL"  "CHILL OWUT"

I won't dare watch it again. It's been years since. I recently saw Batman Forever. It wasn't as bad as BandR but those bright greens, yellows, pinks purples and blues were a bit much for me. And Jim Carrey was too Jim Carrey for me as well. lol  :P

At least Batman Forever could be watched without your brain rotting, unlike the drug trip that is B&R!

Thats true  ;)

True, but one could say that something outright BAD (B&R) is more entertaining compared to something that's simply lame (Forever) ;D

I don't find Forever to be lame. True, I definitely would prefer to have seen Burton's third, but I actually find Forever to be quite entertaining (even though it has scenes that could've been expanded, increased character development, etc.).

Some of you might be thinking, "WHAT!? This guy is a Burtonite, yet he likes Schumacher's Batman Forever?" But hey, that's just me (besides, I've seen worse). :)

One thing I cannot do, is watch Forever, let alone Batman & Robin, right after watching BATMAN and Batman Returns. Those last two totally raped the feel and structure of the first two. The tacky stuff becomes really obvious when you try to follow up one after the other in one sitting.

You really have to watch the latter films with a different mind set for any type of enjoyment to emerge and in individual time frames. ie. Watch BATMAN today, watch Batman Forever next week. lol  :P

The last 2 are just silly as heck. There's some silliness in Batman Returns, but the flick was so dark, it needed some of that to balance out.
This is why Im such a fan of the first BATMAN film.  :)
