George Clooney jokes about his Batman shame

Ойын-сауық

George Clooney jokes that if actors campaigned against each other like politicians do, rivals would quickly roll out pictures of him in the rubber Batman suit from the much maligned 'Batman And Robin'.

    I wouldn’t even say he was the worst Batman. He was just in the worst Batman film. He played the character as well as he could with the material he had. I don’t hate the film either. It was the last campy superhero film we got until they started taking themselves more seriously. What people forget is if this film wasn’t so atrociously bad we wouldn’t had them reviewing themselves and rebooting the series. You could tell it needed just that in Batman forever. I wasn’t a major fan of that film but at least this film marked the end of an era of slapstick superhero’s: Tim burton’s were darker but still had an element slapstick in some of the scenes. Without this film being that bad, we would have had another Schumacher film which would have possibly meant no Nolan

    @@VillaBoys123 that's the writer's job cuz he's the one who wrote the script. Clooney as an actor is just simply following orders from the director and the script. Imagine if Heath Ledger played Joker with a terrible dialogue to say and a bad direction for his acting, he would've sucked ass as Joker if he gotten both of those. He wouldn't have trained his Joker voice if Nolan didn't told him to do it. Ledger's performance worked because of Nolan's script for the character and direction his acting. Clooney is a great actor and him, under the right director and script, he could've been a great Batman

    The mythical "dark grim tone" of the Batman comics of long ago is a bit over-dramatized. The first dozen or so original Batman comics from the 30s contained the dark adventures of a solitary Batman, but with the introduction of Robin (1940), the comic became considerably more lighthearted. It returned to its dark roots in the '70s, not '80s, thanks largely in part to writer Denny O'Neil. If anything, the Adam West show helped to make Batman as hugely popular as he is today.

He delivered such powerful lines extremely well. He and Michael Caine were amazing. The emotion and relationship between Bruce and Alfred were very sentimental.

They were aimed solely at children and the Adam West show was NOT straying too far away from the Batman comics at the time. The only difference being that the Adam West show was hilariously tongue-in-cheek about it all.
