To this day, I still cry every time I see Penguin's death scene. Of Tim Burton's Batman films, 'Batman Returns' is definetly the darkest. This movie taught me the hard way that sequels always get dark, specially if it is the second installment. Even so, despite having some issues with the plot, I love Danny DeVito and Michelle Pfeiffer's performances, for me she is the best Catwoman in live action to date. Hope you enjoy 'Batman Forever' next, keep in mind it was helmed by a different director and with a radically different approach to Burton's. Still, I consider it an enjoyable movie. 'Batman & Robin' too, but for all the wrong reasons😂.
I feel like Batman Returns is a rare exceptional sequel that tops the original because it completely avoids the pitfalls of most sequels. Instead of trying to copy and paste and double down on the success of the original movie, which was a series of action set pieces and Jack Nicholson doing a lot of scenery-chewing with Joker being pure evil, Burton instead opted to go a completely different route in the sequel having multiple sympathetic villains with tragic backstories and noble motives for committing their evil acts. It makes Returns more relatable and deeper than Batman89.
I actually think Catwoman’s “origin” in this film is perfect. Sure, it definitely isn’t shooting for Nolan-esque realism, but there’s something really compelling about a super repressed character who suffers a traumatic brain injury and freakish resurrection only to have a complete spontaneous breakdown and go “yep, I’m a superhero now” complete with bizarro multiple lives that would make even The Crow envious.
Sooo...the cats nibbling on her didn't turn her into cat woman. Being pushed out the window caused her brain damage, which in her case made her Cat Woman. She loved cats already anyway....the brain damage turned her into what she loves. She now thinks she's a cat.
Michelle Pfeiffer trained for three months to use a bullwhip, and took all four of those mannequin heads off in one take, the cast and crew gave her a big round of applause when she did that. The jump rope part after she knocked heads off wasn’t scripted either she did that on her own.
Back then, the word "cringe" was just dialogue in the movie. Now we use it to describe most modern movies! lol Danny Devito was monumentally underrated as Penguin. For different reasons, I think he was just as good in Returns as Nicholson was in Batman. Both funny, but Joker was completely unsympathetic, while Penguin had a tragic backstory so you kind of felt for him.
FYI: the couple that play the Cobblepots at the beginning of the movie are Paul Reubens & Diane Salinger. They previously appeared together in Pee-Wee's Big Adventure (1985) with Paul as the titular Pee-Wee Herman & Diane as Simone, a truck stop waitress who dreams of visiting Paris.
Paul Reubens also played Oswald Cobblepot's/The Penguin's father Elijah VanDahl on _Gotham._ Which, for all it's flaws, I consider one of the better non-comics bits of Batman media, second only to _Batman: The Animated Series_ and _Batman Beyond._
If you haven't already seen it then you guys should watch the Animated Movie "BATMAN - MASK OF THE PHANTASM". It came out in Movie Theaters back in 1993 and out of All of the "BATMAN" Movies (Both Animated and Live Action), I think that it is 1 of the Best.
Regarding the "super long intro for no bloody reason," at the time, Hollywood's guild rules required the movie credits to be at the start of the movie. George Lucas famously got into a feud with the guilds by placing his credits at the END of Star Wars (specifically The Empire Strikes Back), and left the Director's Guild over it. In the years since, that's become the standard, which is why you don't see long opening credits sequences much anymore.
"it doesn't make any sense" You know this is a dark but cheesy comic book movie right? Like it's not a documentary about NASA astronauts.. things will probably not make sense in a world where a dude gets raised by penguins and is born with flipper hands and stuff. Besides, she was just ejected out a window and woke up to cats eating her, she most likely had a psychotic break.
I liked joker in the first, but I think this movie had a better drawn out story. The penguin doing the speech to the penguins before they go into the city with the missiles, was a reference to general Paton. A former ww2 general.
I think in the comics Selina had a black cat named midnight and the cat when Selina gets pushed out the window breathes into her making her come to life again with 9 lives.
They should watch "BATMAN - MASK OF THE PHANTASM" next. I realize that it is an Animated Movie but it still came out in Movie Theaters before "BATMAN FOREVER" did.
Robotnik was a name the localizers made up for us in the UK. It was always "Eggman" originally. It eventually got so bad with this mix up that they had to retcon it so his full name was Dr Ivo Robotnik and "Eggman" is just a nickname/title! Just to make both parties happy!
For the next batman movies, I sugested you to skip batman forever and batman and robin, because those 2 movies are realy realy bad, just go and watch directly the Nollan Trillogy or some batman animated movies
this was a great video! this is one of my favorite movies and it's what made me fall in love with Michelle Pfeiffer for life. can't wait for you guys to do Batman & Robin! ;)
I loved your first viewing of Batman 89 so i was so happy that you guys did Batman Returns! Michael Keaton is the best Batman and he is finally reprising his role in 2022 The Flash!
Batman Forever is the next one. I actually kind of like it, but yeah, the one after that (Batman and Robin) is awful. But then you get back to some really good ones after that 😁
This isn't the usual version of Catwoman, this is just Tim Burton's BDSM version of Catwoman. In the comics and other media, she's more like Black Cat from Spider-man and is a jewel thief/catburglar. And Batman vs Superman wasn't that bad.
53:12 except batman v superman is one of the best adaptations of the comics in a movie. I suggest you do rewatch but watch the extended version. I understand it used to be cool to hate on DC just because people just wanted to follow the crowd... but i have seen so many reactions of people giving it a fresh watch with no prejudgment and loving the movies after. Btw the order to watch them is Man of Steel, Batman v Superman and then wait next year for Zack Snyder's Justice League coming out on HBO Max. Thats just for the batman related movies, then there's the other character movies in the same universe like wonder woman, aquaman, shazam and others also coming out soon.
Fun fact: Catwoman's origin here is loosely based on an early (retconned) origin; she was a stewardess who basically hit her head in an accident and afterwards thought she was a master jewel thief.
I would imagine your reaction for Terminator two judgment day in the movie but imagine you’ll be like freaking out because managers need to just save John Connors SN wait now a SS and he save them before Quies button with the word or do you 1000 screws
There was some CGI, like the bats, the Batmobile armor, some shots of the army of penguins and Catwoman as she was lifted into the air by Penguin's umbrella. Almost everything else was practical.
I like the old Batman and Superman movies except a few exceptions but now I am sick to death of Batman and Superman movies put someone else on for the love of god if it even exists.
Batman Returns is my favorite Batman movie, and I love he Joel Schumacher films, I don't care what anyone else thinks. They are ludicrous and amazing and wonderful and full of cheesy shit that I love I look forward to watching your reactions if you post them. I do like Batman & Robin better than Batman Forever, I only like Batman FOrever for the villains honestly. All these movies made me the nutjob I am today haha
@@SuzyLuOfficial the gun used against this incarnation of Catwoman in this film is a 6 round cylinder fed Smith & Wesson Model 66 .357 Magnum which's 1 of the strongest/most deadliest/most powerful Pistol rounds (bullets) in the world due 2 the size of .357 Magnum bullet in other words when it comes 2 physique you'll have 2 be incredibly/insanely strong/durable/tough fighter 2 take getting hit in the chest torso/back torso by a single .357 Magnum round (bullet) - all 6 .357 Magnum rounds (bullets) - more than 6 .357 Magnum rounds (bullets) without a bulletproof/bullet resistant armor vest & survive just like how this incarnation of Catwoman somewhat did!

feel the same way to be honest. I feel the Penguine is a very depressing character here.
@@drlee2 Very nicely put - totally agree.
I LOVE this Batman movie so much. Catwoman and Penguin were PERFECTLY cast.
I actually think Catwoman’s “origin” in this film is perfect.

Cops: Don't hurt us lady!! Our take home's less than 300!
Catwoman: You're overpaid!! Hit the road..
Love it.😂
wish my take home was anywhere close to 300 lol

Saying something is “so 90s” doesn’t make it true you don’t have to say that because it’s a 90s movie... this movie is purposely of a nondescript age
I believe the stray cats come up and give her one of their 9 lives each... so she comes back to life, and she has 9 lives, and she's like a cat lol
Selina made her costume out from a leather jacket and didn't already own a suit
Michael Keaton was the best Batman by far.
Wait until you see how funny he is. He began as a stand up comedian/ taxi driver.
If you haven't already seen it then you guys should watch the Animated Movie "BATMAN - MASK OF THE PHANTASM".
It came out in Movie Theaters back in 1993 and out of All of the "BATMAN" Movies (Both Animated and Live Action), I think that it is 1 of the Best.
That’s absolutely is not the way it was in the 90s at all:( I was there.
Dude your a savage man 😉😉😉😅😅i noticed that you both love saying "im batman"

I like when Phifer says "IM A WOMAN!" so seriously in the character switch but like Suzy said she had to have had amazing confidence
I thought she said "IM CATWOMAN" i watched this many times and my whole life was a lie! 😵
"it doesn't make any sense" You know this is a dark but cheesy comic book movie right? Like it's not a documentary about NASA astronauts.. things will probably not make sense in a world where a dude gets raised by penguins and is born with flipper hands and stuff. Besides, she was just ejected out a window and woke up to cats eating her, she most likely had a psychotic break.
Batman Returns is the best Batman movie I think we can all agree.
38:87 Actually the real disguise is "Bruce Wayne" deep down he's real self is Batman, same thing with Catwoman..."Selina Kyle" is just a mask.
I liked joker in the first, but I think this movie had a better drawn out story.
The penguin doing the speech to the penguins before they go into the city with the missiles, was a reference to general Paton. A former ww2 general.
According to Rotten Tomatoes, "Batman Returns" - 80%. "Batman" (1989) - 71%.
I think in the comics Selina had a black cat named midnight and the cat when Selina gets pushed out the window breathes into her making her come to life again with 9 lives.
That’s the 2004 Halle Berry Catwoman (Patience Phillips)
Hahaha, the song is “Superfreak” by Rick James not “Cant Touch This” by MC Hammer when they’re at the Christmas Masquerade Ball but fun reaction.
I had so much fun watching this reaction. Thanks Suzy and Steejo!
P.S. You are going to watch Batman Forever next and after that Batman & Robin.
They should watch "BATMAN - MASK OF THE PHANTASM" next.
I realize that it is an Animated Movie but it still came out in Movie Theaters before "BATMAN FOREVER" did.
Oh god
Kept me waiting for this one since I heard u been watching batman...
Awesome waiting for more....
That was a capsule of napalm that Batman threw at Catwoman's arm
Fun fact joker and Penguin have the most Villian team ups in Batman history
At the beginning of this video📷 awe so cute😀.
So Father Ted is popular in Scotland?
My favorite of the OG Batman

@@Sir_Szymon_II thanks!
@@xGhostCat No problem
For the next batman movies, I sugested you to skip batman forever and batman and robin, because those 2 movies are realy realy bad, just go and watch directly the Nollan Trillogy or some batman animated movies
The next one is Batman Forever than its Batman and Robin
What about "BATMAN - MASK OF THE PHANTASM" ?
I realize that it is an Animated Movie but it still came out in Movie Theaters before "BATMAN FOREVER".
Thats a different storyline.
Selina said set my heart when she's dancing with bruce
this was a great video! this is one of my favorite movies and it's what made me fall in love with Michelle Pfeiffer for life. can't wait for you guys to do Batman & Robin! ;)
Penguins dad was played by Pee Wee Herman! Lol
The mother was also in the Pee Wee film as well
Nice job watching my favorite Batman movie of ALL TIME EVER 😀
After Batman and Robin the new ones appeared wit people like Christian Bale who couldn't act with a gun to his head
Did batman throw water at catwoman then she screamed? Lol been a while since i seen it
im pretty sure it was acid, there's this scene when catwoman is alking to the penguin and she says "batman napalmed my arm"
@@william678910 oh i remember now
Hang on.....Bruce Wayne mounted Bat-Repeater signals on the outside of his house? So like...wouldn't that tell everyone he was Batman?
I think it would just show that he's supportive of Batman. Plus, no one ever goes to Wayne Manor unless Bruce throws a party or he brings a lady home.
@@passionsquietrage I can buy that - it just goes in the "who did Bruce hire to install that" bin which is already spilling over anyway haha.
@@ColinPoole Maybe Alfred installed it or Bruce did it himself.
I loved your first viewing of Batman 89 so i was so happy that you guys did Batman Returns! Michael Keaton is the best Batman and he is finally reprising his role in 2022 The Flash!
I like your pet bear.
Batman Forever is the next one. I actually kind of like it, but yeah, the one after that (Batman and Robin) is awful. But then you get back to some really good ones after that 😁
9:41 Joker laugh
I recommend the Hallie Berry "Catwoman"
The kitchen looks amazing suzy.
great reaction can't wait for the next one

Another stella score by my boy, Danny Elfman.
I would imagine your reaction for Terminator two judgment day in the movie but imagine you’ll be like freaking out because managers need to just save John Connors SN wait now a SS and he save them before Quies button with the word or do you 1000 screws
amanda mom🥰 Miss you too
"Pussy power" was in the comics, they transferred cat life-force to her!
Cops in America!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
“Abandoned child ride”. DAMN chill, chill.
You have to watch third one it was in my opinion the best one out of all of them.
Why does this have so many dislikes?
CGI? No, there was no CGI in this movie.
There was some CGI, like the bats, the Batmobile armor, some shots of the army of penguins and Catwoman as she was lifted into the air by Penguin's umbrella. Almost everything else was practical.
Batman Forever is next, after that it's Batman and Robin.
