Funny you should say that. Blinko & Minty was a code name for This flick during production.

I still recall a conversation I had with a friend about this movie. He is a massive comic book fan. He mentioned that in the letters pages of the Batman comic it was said, "There are Batman fans who love the comics. Others love the 1960s TV series, and never the twain shall meet." Taking the franchise in a different direction, Shumacher was supposed to have said that "Bruce Wayne has had plenty of time to get over the deaths of his parents." Yet if this did happen, it would mean that Bruce Wayne would lose his motivation to be Batman.

In fairness, I kinda liked making Batgirl into Alfred's niece for this canon, as it kinda helped make his illness more tragic for her, and give her more reason to why she was partaking in underground motorcycle races to raise money for his cure. It's a shame the movie didn't focus more on Afred's illness.

I'm on Schumacher's side regarding his apology. The movie spun out of his control due to the drive to make it more toyetic. It's not simply an issue of people hating his vision, since his vision sounds like it got binned. Hearing an apology helps put what happened with the movie into perspective, considering Schumacher has been shit on for decades over it. It also means he took ownership for its failure and his failure to stop interference into the production. I have a bit more respect for him hearing that. As an aside, Batman and Robin was where I first learned about film licensing costs. A video store I rented from a lot posted the replacement costs for damaged or stolen movies on the rental covers, and they were often quite high (if I remember right, around $200 per copy). This is because video stores, like theatres and even special event screenings, needed to acquire distribution rights for the films. These rights meant each copy a store got costed far more than the consumer retail cost for private viewing. Batman and Robin was apparently such a failure that Warner wasn't too concerned with the higher licensing cost, and the replacement price on the rentals was around just $30.

There is also one scene that was kept as important to the film role when you first met George and Elles characters, George constantly keeps putting his head down because Celine was keeping an eye on them. She was eventually taking off set, which caused of set arguments for the couple.

3:13, Clooney looking more Batman than he did in the entire movie while being directed by Joel S.

First movie we recall seeing in theaters as a kid and say what you will about it, it was pure magic at age 4 haha!

I worked at WB at the time. Several things I heard about. Steven Seagal was filming a movie at the time. He complained about having a headache because of paint fumes on the set. His trailer was moved to America St, an outside set. When Batman moved in, Arnold was put on the street between America St and the set. Arnold had his trailer and his gym trailer, frequently enjoying a cigar after working out and every once an while you could see him in the blue paint. Long story short, Arnold and his peeps noticed Seagal and his perps walking through. The rumor was Arnold noticed him and said "look it's Steven Seagal, the big action star." Another story I heard was that Clooney won the role by game of horse. The basketball court was in front of the gym which was by the rear of the commissary. I think that other player was Leon di Bonventura. It seemed that the female assistants took lunch right as the extras from the party scene were taking a break. One of the cast members of a popular show made the comment "they certainly do like the sparkly men". Of course, these were rumours and should be taking with a grain of salt.

This was probably the second time Batman disappointed Minty after that stunt show guy.

Thank you for having a different attitude and perception on this movie. It's pretty refreshing. As a hardcore Bat-Fan, I appreciate and respect your unique perspective.

Mark, one of the things I really appreciate about your videos is that you don't troll anything. I hate troll videos and people that try to get attention by bashing a movie, etc, just because they didn't like it and capitalize on perceived public opinion. Batman and Robin is a classic case of a notable cast trapped in a bad screenplay and direction, with camp. That is a good point about "toyetic", even George Lucas sold out in some cases to sell toys as he owned the Star Wars merchandizing rights. You're not going to hear many directors get humble and admit they made a bad movie, good for him. The positive outcome of this movie is that it stopped this series of Batman movies, and Christopher Nolan made his iconic "Dark Knight" trilogy.

I actually love it. Arnold's Mr. Freeze is my favorite Bat-villain. It's colorful, mindless FUN, just like the comics I read as a kid. I have nothing against more serious versions. I think there's plenty of room for all interpretations.

If James Cameron started working on a Spiderman movie in the 90s, then it might still be in production. Any decade now.

Minty I got to say I’ve loved watching your videos over the years and I’m still finding ones that were done a while ago. Ya always have great things to say about movies and your Proverbs are priceless. Really stellar brother, keep up the good fight.

Would've been better if they'd just made it "Mr. Freeze: The Movie," with Arnold kicking ice and delivering cool one-liners the whole time.

I was in my early 30s when this movie came out. I liked this movie because of the colorful scenes and campiness. I knew it was going to be more like a comedy than a serious, dark movie when it became available on pay-per-view, so there were no surprises. I enjoyed the Batman movies with Michael Keaton, but I also liked the one with George Clooney. My least favorite was the one with Val Kilmer. Jim Carrey was perfect for the role of Riddler.

iced that guy, to cone a phrase.

All the actors said that they felt like they were shooting a long toy ad

Basically one of my favorite "so bad it's funny" films.

I remember seeing B&R in the theater. Disappointment in the movie was lingering as well as the ringing in my ears because this movie was LOUD. This was a time when projectionist’s control over a films showing was starting to be taken away from them and the studios and distributors had specific guidelines for theaters to follow one of which was the volume. Serious, my ears hurt after seeing this in the theater.

"Ice" to see a review of this movie 😁 I'll see myself out. But I do remember when Clooney said he'd pay back anybody who bought a ticket to see the movie. Hey I'm a need that money George 😂

I agree with your mum, I loved the film and Batman Forever with the introduction of Robin/Dick Grayson. Off topic, I love the collectibles you have in the background (and how you swap out a few that have a connection to the film you are currently reviewing) but I have to ask: you have the classic Tim Curry IT in the back so I was wondering if you will ever (or have ever) done a 10 things on either, both, or will possibly do a comparison of the two with which you liked better and why

Yeah? How did they predict something that authors like aldous huxley and phillip k. Dick were writing about as early as the 1930s? Even Jules Verne wrote about using a mechanical television as a communication tool in the 1860s. Just saying

I very rarely comment but I feel this is worth it. First and foremost I would like to say I very much enjoy your content, as a whole. Articulate, a good laugh here and there, and a nice, 'look behind the scenes,' roll in the background. Length of segments, spot on. Right, I liked soundtrack...that's bout it. I still agree with your assessment. So, thanx again and keep on keeping on. Cheers.

Hey Minty! How’s things going? Your one of the original channels I subscribed to and now several years later Still one of my favorite. I really love your style and narration and just the way you give your perspective and opinion and knowledge about different movies most of us have seen. I also appreciate your extensive knowledge about not only the movie’s but the different posters and alternate casting choices and alternative . Also who would have ever imagined mr. freeze aka Arnold Schwarzenneger would become the future governor of California a trend that would later reach the U.S. presidency. I don’t think it worked out so well for the latter. Thanks for the time and hard work you put into your research and your channel I truly appreciate it. Take care and stay safe and healthy!

I definitely liked the suit Mr. Freeze wore. It made him look a lot more menacing, and ready to take on any superhero, even Superman.

"Forever" differed, because Carrey's zaniness kind of worked, Jones is a lot of fun to watch as he hams it up; and unlike its sequel, still had a KIND of darkness to it .... even though Two-Face's henchmen carried guns that .... had neon lights on them. Similarly, the game on Sega Genesis was dark and difficult, retaining an air of ... not for kids. For me, anyway. I was about 14, then.

I love your videos man..keep up the great job mate😁👍🇨🇦

I'm with your mum, I like these movies. The colorful iconic costumes, the cheesy similar to the original style not at all serious like the newer ones, some fun gadgets and references that really fitted the 90s, and especially the ice puns :D I LOVE PUNS. Sure there were many things wrong with it but I liked it as a kid and it's nice to have that style of batman movie as I don't like the overly serious cold nature of the newer ones.

I love this movie, Even though It’s kind of campy. Also, I loved freeze

This movie was a good one because we found out how important Alfred was to Bruce and Dick. He was their surogate Father. And you found out how much they loved each other. A good message to put out.

The Amazing Spiderman (both films), Catwoman, Daredevil, Captain Marvel, and some others are indeed worse than B & R. Still, if there are lessons to be learned from this misguided endeavour, they are, never let the film be drastically changed by a particular cast member, and never let the essence of the film be dictated by outside interested parties.

As awful as Batman & Robin is, it is still massively entertaining and I will still watch it many times in the future.

What a COOL video, definitely something to listen to when you wanna CHILL and sit back.

That's a good way of putting it, me too. Not loved, but just fun. My dislike is Robin, he's a little bitch, haha.

I like that they got Arnold because he was the world's biggest actor and then had to rewrite all of his lines because he couldn't act. I think that says a lot about how the studio execs were the true villains of this story. Even so, this is one of my favorite campy movies to watch now. Not everything has to be gritty and moody to be enjoyable.
