Batman Forever

"Holy overcrowded and unenthusiastic performance filled Batman movie, Batman!" We move past the Burton movies, and explore when the 90's started to take The Dark Knight off the rails. Is Val Kilmer a decent caped crusader or an emotionless wimp? Why is Jim Carrey's performance so much better than this movie deserved? Despite being a beloved two-faced villains, why is Tommy Lee Jones a one dimensional neon fart in this film? Find out as we revisit "Batman Forever" and make sure to subscribe wherever you're listening! *Disclaimer: This episode was recorded a few days prior to Joel Schumacher’s death on June 22, 2020. Out of respect for his successful career as a visionary director, we would like to dedicate this episode to him. We poke fun and criticize his work at times, as novice critics do, but we will not deny that he contributed much to our childhood memories. For this we are thankful and fortunate to have his legacy of films to remember him by. May he rest in peace. IN MEMORY OF JOEL SCHUMACHER (Aug. 29, 1939 - June 22, 2020)
