> The cast navigated the chaos of filming only to enter a press tour that quickly turned sour as it became clear the movie was not well-received.
> „All of a sudden, you were starting to get the feedback, and you realize it was just going sideways,“ O’Donnell says. „There was so much hatred of the film when it came out. It was like, ‚Oh my God.‘ And you want to do your job and promote the movie…. I remember at one point [director] Joel Schumacher just threw up the flag. He’s like, ‚I’m out. I can’t do it anymore.‘ He was so heartbroken and kind of bummed out about it.“
> O’Donnell admits „it was a tough one for us to all do digest,“ but feels „we were lucky to be in the movie, and it was fun to be a part of it. It is what it is. Some work out and some don’t.“
Wasn’t Alicia Silverstone like mocked for being “fat” or something by the press
Bat crotch, bat credit card etc. Clearly was going to fail
It was too much, maybe it would’ve been better if it was presented as a comedy.
We just weren’t quite ready for bat nipples
I never “hated” Batman and Robin, Especially as a kid, I never will. Honestly I think it’s cool….as Ice.
11 year old me loved it. Even now, as an adult, seeing its many, many flaws, I can’t hate it. It’s very committed to the bit, and there’s a lot of effort on display. Is it my ideal Batman representation? Obviously not. But if you think of it as its own thing, a continuation of the 60s series, but more-gay, if you’ll pardon my lack of a better word-it’s kind of fun.
I was 11 at the time so I was who the movie was targeting and I was disappointed. I grew up on Batman The Animated Series so for them to completely botch the Mr Freeze origin and character really sucked. Poison Ivy was not good at all, only helped that at least Uma Thurman looked nice. Bane became a literal mindless brute.
Summer 1997 blockbusters let me down with this and Lost World: Jurassic Park. Then 1998 had Godzilla, 1999 Star Wars Episode One The Phantom Menace.
It was a circus comedy. Lots of fun, and not too far off the Batman TV show from the 1960s. The public wanted the more serious Batman films of Michael Keaton. Even the earlier one with Val Kilmer had a more serious tone. I do not know why Joel Schumacher decided to make a left turn into camp, it is difficult to believe it was an accident.
I loved it as a 9 year old kid when it came out. Easily one of my fav movie of the 90s. The toys were sick too
