    It's funny how none of the criminals in this serial fear The Batman. Well, of course they shouldn't.

      GearGades It’s not even the Batmobile - that doesn’t exist, yet - it’s *Bruce* *Wayne’s* *car* . Vicki even asks at one point (I forget which part of the serial it was) if Bruce knows that Batman’s driving around in his car. 🤦🏻‍♂️

      You'd think that having the most famous masked vigilante driving the Car of the most well known Millionaire Playboy in the city people would start to notice and make the connection.
      Specially considering Batman and Robin would appear with Bruce's car in HIS own neighborhood ... in HIS OWN PARKING LOT.

    i don't remember the exact quote but the rifftrax guys making the joke about the office door leading directly outside all of a sudden. how much did you have to stretch to try to make jokes for this one? it was in an office in an office building. how many offices have doors that lead directly outside? so how would you get outside? should they have jumped out the window?
    said it inmy other comment, but i'll repeat, by far the weakest effort by rifftrax i've ever seen.

    • @wileyschmitt
      @wileyschmitt  4 года назад +2

      Interesting take, your opinion is welcomed. I thought it was pretty good overall, and they had a lot of episodes to do, but there have been many times where it seemed that the writing was a bit lacking, and I always assume that it's because Mike didn't write for it, which is perfectly fine as we can't expect him to write for all of the hundreds of possible content they've done thus far.

  • @steveswangler6373

    I love the 40's serials, they were meant for young kids, I think many people here don't realize. they were campy and ridiculous, but they were just meant for entertainment.
    the style and quality of the acting and stories and directing leave it wide open for the comedy of Riff trax which just makes me wonder why they failed so hard.
    this is by far the worst job I've ever seen from rifftrax.
