        Well then it can’t be the worst… Hmm we will have to do some digging for worst Batman movie but let’s start by accepting bat nipples and giant bombs that say “boom!” on them automatically elevate the movies.

        I think that’s Batman Forever. Batman & Robin is the one with Arnold Schwarzenegger as a very punny Mr. Freeze.

        It’s arguably one of the best movies ever made.

        !Arguable in the sense that the statement is likely to cause an argument not that there is an argument to defend the statement.!<

      Batman & Robin, though terrible, at least looked nice. Good colour palette and cinematography. Good set design and special effects. Decent acting all round. It’s clearly harking back to technicolour Batman. It was schlock but that was clear from the outset. There was no hope of it ever being anything but a movie to kill an hour and a half. I’d watch it with my 8 year old gladly.

      This travesty was made by one of the (supposed) best directors of his age (not evidenced by his largely awful movies, which are pompous style over substance) but it was a mess from start to finish. Poor casting, poor dialogue apparently written by a 12 year old, numerous ridiculous plot points. Batman was barely in the movie, apart from the lengthy and ridiculous broken back scenes. It was basically a movie about Joseph Gordon Levitt’s character.

      It was the stark opposite of the classic that preceded it.
