Batman and Robin...a Review?

[The Dark Knight]

I think Clooney has been quoted that he would reimburse anyone who paid to see B&R in theaters.

This is true. I just wish the film was never made. I could take having Forever, but Batman and Robin is just too much.

You really have to appreciate his good humor and candor on the matter.

Yeah at least he can laugh at himself and admit it was bad, i even remember him making fun of the Batnipples once on I.S.T.A.S.

Same Forever i can stand but this theres just no way. Sad there was so many ways this could have been a good movie.

Then i demend to be reimbursed first for when i saw it at the movies and second for when a little after it came out on vhs and i had to watch it in 12 grade history.

Something Ive noticed over my years of being a Batman fan is that most of all the B&R bashing comes from the internet fans. I have spoken to several people about the Batman movies, and alot of them say they liked B&R and Forever. They think they were fun movies. The "general" movie watchers dont read into films like the majority of you do. They watch it for entertainment. Thats it.

Yeah, but several other people that have an opinion about movies don't necessarily see them as "Bad Batman Movies" because (of course) they don't care for Batman, but they still see them as dumb and loud dated blockbusters with bad acting and boring action.

I can stand a bad Batman movie i like the 66 movie and tv show and i even still watch and injoy Forever i admit that it's far from the best movie but even with it's sillyness i can still watch and injoy it. But Batman And Robin is just a plain bad movie movie i can't even injoy it as a turn off your brain movie.

There was also a game based on this "film", released for Playstation 1. It was bad, but not as bad as the game, and had a location called "Axis Chemicals". Some scenes are here:

I actually quite enjoyed the game. Although I never got far in it.

[THE BAT-MAN]

I don't really care about Joel schumachers campy batman films or the 60's tv show, even though I was a fan of the tv show when I was a Kid.  If you ask me Batman and Robin is nothing more than a PG-13 version of Sylvester Stallones  "Demolition Man" Go rent it and compare it with Batman and Robin.  Even  Elliot Goldenthal's score uses the same themes.  For example when Mr. Freeze goes to see his wife Nora encased in her freezing chamber the music that is playing is actually the theme used for John Spartan.  It also seems to me that the best way to view a Joel Scumacher batman film is not to view it as a  batman film but to view it as a Robin film.  Joel Schumacher's designs and colors for a pop  gotham city seemed to be better suited for Robin rather than batman, even robins costume can blend in better than batmans, and if you watch carefully you will see that Chris O'donnell portrayed Robin and Dick Grayson quite seriously take a look at Batman Forever and Batman and Robin.  Schumacher himself even said," I never known Batman without Robin".  As for the worst movie ever I would have to say "Battlefield Earth" and if that doesn't suffice I can name a whole lot more.  I do have respect for everyone's opinion, but I hate it when someone does not have all their facts straight.

I am referring in general. I feel that it is important to show respect when listening to someone's opinion.  This does not mean that you have to agree with them.  Respecting and Agreeing are two different things.
