    You can definitely tell how much more control Tim Burton had on this movie than the previous film. The previous film had a mix of Tim Burton's visual flair and Batman combined, but this movie feels solely like a Tim Burton movie

    I saw this as a 4-year-old at a drive-in. I will always remember sitting on top of my parents' car watching this movie and being scared to death, but I loved it. I had all the toys and got it on VHS for that Christmas. It's weird bc my folks were very protective of what I watched as a kid. Somehow this and 89 slipped under their radar.

    Movie World on the Gold Coast here in Australia had a Batman Returns ride in the 90s which was absolutely amazing. You walked through a full scale Wayne Manor and Batcave, then jumped into a Batmobile simulator and fought the penguin. It was next level. And for that reason and that reason alone I will always love this movie!

    This was one of my favourite movies as a kid! Rewatching it always reminds me how damn dark it is and I think it’s crazy I was watching this movie when I was 3 or 4 years old. Still has some of my favourite scenes of Keaton’s Batman and the batmobile, his suit looks ten times better than in 89 imo. It’s definitely ridiculous and completely over the top but I can’t help but love it.

    Batman Returns is my favorite Batman movie. It is cartoony - a twisted, sexy, campy, gut-wrenching, live-action cartoon. I love the way this movie looks and sounds (A+ score by Elfman), Pfieffer and Devito are amazing in their roles, and the final scene in the alley is the best ending to any comic book movie ever. I totally get Kristian's complaints, but BR is so damn fun and atmospheric.

Third behind Begins and The Dark Knight for me and I revisit once or twice a year now. I absolutely adore the production design and overall vibe of it. I like my Batmen crazy, horny, and emo and no movie has done that better since. I mean the man sits around in the dark waiting for the chance to literally spring into action and step into the spotlight! For those same reasons…Bring on Pattinson

    Another great REWATCH!, fellas. Winston was killing me again with the impressions! ("Just the p***y I've been looking for!") 🤣🤣🤣 I pretty much align with Coy on this one, and the Pfeiffer Catwoman art in his background was a nice touch! Kristian, I'm sorry you didn't care for it, and that's okay, but I will say I always viewed Penguin's plan as a manipulation/blackmailing of Max Shreck just to give himself some legitimacy in Gotham City and create a false sense of trust in citizens regarding his emergence. I think Penguin was bitter and planning the first-born slaughter all along. As Batman says, "I think he knows who his parents are. There's something else." Penguin put on a show to manipulate the sympathy of Gothamites too... from the publicity stunt of the cemetery scene to the admission of "I've played this stinking city like a harp from Hell!" Shreck, however, distracts Penguin from the plan by seducing him with the allure of power and yes, "unlimited p***tang" until throwing him under the bus. Only then does Penguin get back to what he intended all along... mass murder of first-born blue bloods. Anyway, I was a kid when I saw this movie, and I watch it at least once a year, and I still love it. Keep up the good work, gents. I'm looking forward to the next one!

    Honestly, Batman Forever was probably my first Batman movie. That or Mask of the Phantasm. I have more to say about those two later. But Returns holds such a special place in my heart. Whether it's the fact that I had the action figures, this movie recorded on VHS, or that it was so strongly associated with the Animated series, I've always been a fan. Plus this movie and Batman 89 were my introduction to Tim Burton (at least, I don't remember seeing Beetlejuice first. The cartoon maybe...) So that is a big factor. The cast, the Gotham sets, the music, all of it just captures what I loved about the comics. Gotham somehow got progressively cleaner in the Nolan trilogy. Bale seemed slower than Keaton. I LOVE The Dark Knight, but over time I just gravitate towards these older films more. Thanks for all the rewatches. I love this series. Also, if any of you can give your opinions on the Fan Scriptions on Channel Awesome (mainly the Batman stuff, but any of it really) that would be awesome. Those videos are kind of long, but they are covering so much that you guys on this channel are talking about right now (Spider-Man, Batman, Rocky).

    I have to say that this is the Batman movie that I remembered the least after watching it in the theater. After watching it later, it's not bad. I rate it equal to Batman Forever which I wasn't crazy about. I was 20 when this came out so there's no childhood nostalgic hangup for me.

    I agree with you. I love this movie because it came out when I was a little kid, and my dad had already shown me the first Batman. He even made me leather Penguin gloves because he did upholstery. I don’t really think it’s that great of a film, but the nostalgia is there for me. It kinda feels like a screwed up live action Batman The Animated Series movie, and I love that, but it definitely gets pretty weird in places. ✌️🤙

    This was a great rewatch (again). 🙂
    This movie mostly stuck with me because of the NES or SNES videogame. It was SUPER hard and we played this forever. I didn't even remember the weird clowns and all those other illustrious characters from the movie, but I still see them before my mental eye when I think back to the videogame (they were very hard to beat).
    So I did see this movie as a kid and I remember how enthralled I was with Catwoman and for a long time, I thought this was the better Batman movie (without seeing it over and over again; just my initial idea after seeing it for the first time). But watching it back, I thought that the first Batman was better as it was more grounded than the cartoony and weirder stuff that happens in this movie.
    Oh, and all the toys, etc.. I remember asking for a LOT of them. ^^

    For context I was born in 95 and so I grew up with these four Batman movies. I loved ALL of them and as a kid obviously the Batman forever style movies were more fun to watch for me even though I still loved the others. Ask I got older there is no doubt that the Tim Burton ones are better I still love everything about them and the Joker has always been my favorite. I still watch these movies every year and still love all of them

    By far my favourite of the original Batman movies. It works for me whereas Batman 89 doesn't entirely anymore. It is much more Tim Burton, which is a good thing (for me at least). And it just has a better emotional pay off. Keaton was clearly more comfortable in the role this time around and Michelle Pheifer's Catwoman is still one of the best comic book movie villains.

    I saw this in the theatre when I was 10. At the time I enjoyed and then over the next years I started to really dislike it because it had to much penguin. As an adult I’ve grown an appreciation for the film and understanding this is a Burton film with Batman in it. The film has some really great stuff and it also has some really weird what the hell burton stuff in it. I would rank it 4th out of the 90’s films. I have a soft spot for forever and b&r. They are both basically big budget versions of the 60’s tv show.

    Schumacher wasn't the first director to draw inspiration from Batman 66. Tim Burton did it first. In Batman 89, Joker ruining paintings in the museum was from an episode of Batman 66. So was the Penguin running for mayor storyline from Batman Returns. Burton even uses the dutch tilt a few times in the 89 film. That show was so important to Batman, it's presence still felt all throughout those first four Batman films.

    In terms of enjoyment, I get the same amount from watching the Burton movies as I do watching the Schumacher movies. My main introduction to Batman was Batman Begins, Year One and The Long Halloween. The Burton movies feel like just that to me, Burton movies not Batman movies. I appreciate the film making of the Burton movies and the practical effects that make the Penguin so visceral, but that's about it unfortunately. As always, really enjoyed hearing you guys talk about it!

    Batman Returns is an interesting movie. I haven't seen it in long time, but I do remember it not having a story or structure that really worked in its favor. I will say that I recall the performances being great, the production design/art direction being a unique stand out, the score by Danny Elfman being solid, and the romance between Bruce and Selina being the best element in the movie. If anything this is probably the most "cult movie" within the superhero genre. Those who love it, adore it and I'm happy for them. For me, its a mixed bag, but its far from a disaster. Also, I saw this as a little kid and DeVito's Penguin freaked me out!

      Hindsight is 20/20 though. If this movie doesn't happen like this, the studio doesn't think going cheesy and cornier is needed. Because Batman and Robin almost tanked Batman in general, it was put on the shelf until finally in comes Nolan.

    I've read the original script for this film (it's online), and while Penguin and Catwoman were underdeveloped in it, I liked it and felt it had a clear and focused story. The only similarities are the Christmas setting, Penguin and Catwoman as villains, the plot point of Batman being framed for murder, and the moment Batman's cape turns into a glider. Everything else was different as the plot was about Penguin and Catwoman looking for hidden treasure, Batman was the focus instead of Penguin, Penguin was not deformed but a short man called Mr. Bonaface, Vicki Vale returns, Robin appears, Gordon has a lot more to do, Harvey Bullock appears but is called Eddie, the final battle is in Wayne Manor and the Batcave, and Bruce proposes to Vicki at the end
