With several serious Batman movies now in the mix, and with more on the way, a bit of campy adventuring is a welcome respite. In this regard, the films were a success. After a two-movie delay, Robin finally joined Batman’s side in Batman Forever, but with Chris O’Donnell instead of Wayans in the red-and-green outfit.
Schumacher's Batman movies were designed to reorient the franchise towards a younger, 1990s audience, while still honoring the aesthetic and tone they inherited.
Carrey might not be today's choice for the character, but he was perfect in the 1990s.īatman Forever and Batman & Robin might not hold up with a modern rewatch, but it is important to remember their purpose at the time. Carrey's performance provides children with a villain they could truly love to hate, while also detailing the character's downfall and descent into madness. Carrey's Riddler matches the cartoonish tone which permeates Schumacher's Batman movies, offering a Riddler much more animated than before, and certainly not a Riddler as dark as in The Batman. The Warner Bros franchise was in a tough spot following Val Kilmer’s exit from the role after Batman Forever, so Joel Schumacher, the other filmmakers and the studio decided to go all in with a huge ensemble, including the likes of Pulp Fiction actress Uma Thurman really going for it as Poison Ivy.Jim Carrey is often lauded for "stealing the show" in Batman Forever, in a performance even more memorable than Tommy Lee Jones as Two-Face. At the time, Arnold Schwarzenegger was the main draw for Batman & Robin just following his still iconic ‘90s roles in Last Action Hero, True Lies and Junior. Whoa! $25 million to be blue and tell Batman to freeze in hell isn’t too bad at all. And we never even worked together, we never saw each other They paid Arnold $25 million to be in it, they paid me like one. I wasn’t the guy who could green light a movie.
You’ve got to remember at that point I was just an actor getting an acting job. Here’s the latest that had the actor/director reveal Arnold Schwarzenegger’s big Batman & Robin paycheck: What would Michael Keaten and Val Kilmer and even Christian Bale say when they see that Batman has turned charming Chris O' Donnell looked uncomfortable, and in almost every movie where he is a hero, this includes the 1993 version of the Three Musketeers, he is rather lifeless. And Clooney has been sent to the cooler a number of times while promoting his latest film The Midnight Sky. Earlier in 2020, the movie’s screenwriter, Akiva Goldsman (who went on to win an Oscar for his A Beautiful Mind screenplay), apologized for the movie all these years later. George Clooney and much of those involved in Batman & Robin still get asked about the most kicked-at Dark Knight film even today.
