Good evening, Happy Friday and welcome to Last Call where, tonight we’re raising a glass for Joel Schumacher’s Batman films—yeah, those ones. Look, Batman Forever and Batman & Robin get dragged harder than a villain in a Gotham alley, and honestly, some of it’s deserved. George Clooney in a bat-nipple suit? That’s less a costume than a cry for help.
But let’s be real—the hate’s overcooked. These movies are like neon-drenched fever dreams with villains emerging from a rave floor. Uma Thurman as Poison Ivy? Campy sexy. Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze dropping ice puns like it’s his full-time job? Iconic, in the worst way possible.
Here’s the thing—they could’ve been better with just a little restraint. Less neon, lose the bat credit card, maybe give the villains actual menace instead of one-liners. But you know what? There’s something charming about how unapologetically dumb they are. They’re not trying to be The Dark Knight—they’re trying to be a comic book camp, and Schumacher commits.
Were they bad? Yes. Were they fun? Also, yes. I mean, “Why so serious?
So top off your glasses and we’ll roll this bat-Canarble wagon, right now…
Canarble Wagon rolls at 9C/10E
