BATMAN FOREVER MOVIE SCENES WINDOWS
From the terribly boring, Windows 95 screensaver-esque neon credits sequence at the beginning to Alfred’s opening line fussing over giving Batman a sack lunch as he’s on his way out (“I’ll get drive-thru,” Batman mutters.), it’s very clear that if it weren’t for the fact that Michael Gough still plays Alfred and Tim Burton has taken on the role of producer, Batman Forever is tonally, aesthetically, and dramatically divorced from the prior two films, thanks in large part to the series’ new director, Joel Schumacher, and the always meddling corporate execs.
To put it simply, Batman Forever not only undid much of the goodwill gained by critics and audiences with the releases of Batman and Batman Returns, it very nearly laid the groundwork for the death of the genre as we know it.įrom the moment the film starts, you know that Forever is a whole different animal than what came before. To say that Batman Forever fails where its predecessors succeeded is to undermine the severity of the film’s existence. Make no mistake about this: Batman Forever is one of the worst superhero films out there, and it even lacks much of the so-bad-it’s-good qualities that its more ridiculous sequel possesses, making this almost more unbearable than that infamous stain of a film. I get that, compared to its sequel, it’s almost competently plotted out, but this in no way implies that this is a good movie.
