Video Flagged Dead

Reasons why Batman & Robin was the worst comic movie... EVER

From Cracked.com: Attempting to pick out just one bad scene from Batman & Robin is impossible, and it certainly wouldn't do justice to just how painfully awful the rest of it is. The film is so dreadful that director Joel Schumacher actually apologized for it on the DVD commentary. That's right, the man who proudly made 8MM, The Number 23 and Cousins thought Batman & Robin was so bad that it warranted an apology.

t's like a virus of awfulness, in which one ridiculous element leads to the next. The ice leads to the X Games charm of Bat-Skates, which leads to Bat-Skyboards, perfect for all your falling-through- the-stratosphere needs. The movie is the primary example of what can happen to even the most respectable comic book series when you start injecting it with sequences that could be described as "slapstick," "campy" and "directed by Joel Schumacher."

The lighting in this movie made no earthly sense and everything was so bad I found Arnolds roll (and lines) the best part of the move. Yes you heard it right, his one liners where amazing compared to the rest of this movie

Ah, nothing like ripping off TMNT... cowabunga... seriously? Did the comics mate or something? Also youd think by now theyd have come up with a way to properly dub over AHHHnolds speech so it actually matches his mouth...

I remember the first thing I said after seeing this in the theater. it was "This is dollar for dollar the worst movie ever made". I stick to that statement. Sure, there have been worse movies and more expensive bad movies, but this is the worst combo of the two.

LOL at all the comments, as betrayed by my string of comment upvotes. Ah, the joy of watching something horrible. I too stirred a repressed memory of seeing this in theatre.

The theatre has since been converted into a bookstore, no doubt because of shock incurred from showing this bomb.

Wait. 2:50: If it's a security cam, why does it pan with him?

Oh and to paraphrase family guy: "All I want is a few inches of metal rail between me and the potentially fatal object I work with on a daily basis."
