Good evening Gaf,

I was going to rent Green Lantern when I heard how awfully dull it is, I went with something fun.

so..

I'd like to tell you today about a movie a misinterpreted movie, and hated movie, a scorned movie, a mocked movie, a shumacher movie.

This movie opens with two super heroes getting the call that a giant man in a power suit is wrecking a museum then they proceed to catch him in the act which begins a large scaled fight with the giant man in said power suit with his amazing freezing ray gun freezes dinosaurs and sends out ice skating goons to try to stop said heroes and steal a priceless jewel, said heroes then go all out fighting the goons toe to toe, as well as the power suited villain whom then blasts off! On a freaking Rocket and then mister lead hero goes following on said rocket and gets captured, villain escapes on a amazing flying wings, then both heroes escape said rocket and kablammo it blows up since they put a bomb in it and then they have to Surf! on debris as they go down to catch the villain!

IS THAT A OPENING OR WHAT?

This movie is hilarious , those Ice puns get me every time, truly one of Arnold's last great roles.

keep your nolan movies, this is fun fun fun.

it's on a level of street fighter movie goodness(almost) and it's surreal like a modern day remake of a adventure from the classic batman tv series.

It's hilarious and stupid, that's why I have always liked it and never really got the hate, it's much better than begins that's for sure. Also the batsuit got nipples.

Batman & Robin is not a great movie.

I love it for being stupid and unintentionally hilarious.

But it's a bad movie. It's just so terrible, it manages to loop around and become amazing.

Awesome film.

I enjoy it more than Batman Begins.

Note: I'm being 100% serious.

It had it's appeal, but an appeal Batman 89 and Batman Forever did better.

I really do miss that gothic over the top Batman.

It's a fun flick, I've always loved it for just being flat out old school Batman wacky. Sure, Clooney is the worst Batman ever but damn was Arnie awesome as Mister Freeze lol.

As am I. More than begins though?

I'm going to have to say yes. But that's just me and well apparently you.

G-Fex, I don't hate Batman & Robin. I don't even dislike Batman & Robin, I like B & R a lot more than most Batman movies.

What I hate is this idea that Batman & Robin is the best. Because it's not.

The one with Tommy Lee Jones as Twoface is also great.

Edit: And Jim Carrey as The Riddler.

At least Jim Carry made a good Riddler. Would of been interesting to see how Riddler be portrayed in Nolan world.

I just wanted to jump in here and say JarJar Binks was the best Star Wars character ever.

Which one is that, btw? I get mixed up with the 90s Batman films.

I feel that new Arkham City game is modeled after Batman and Robin. Poison Ivy actually looks a bit like Uma Thurman.

EDIT: Even Arkham City's Robin has the same shaved head as B&R's Robin.

I'll never forget the ancient Greece / dinosaur / giant diamond exhibit.

Or when freeze burst through the wall in his car, on the top floor of a high rise building.

You truly are a weird one


The Burton and Nolan ones are the only ones worth talking about
