@@brettcooper3893 yes!! but to some degree I have to respectfully disagree. There is more to aging than a "just". With age comes experience and wisdom!! Old things such as music, movies and books were made to a different standard.

He plays the same character for almost every movie. The riddler, the mask, or any of his silly characters. They are all the same. I used to like Jim. But now he’s just a tool.
Whatever one thinks about this movie, you gotta admit that Chris O'Donnell has one of the greatest one liners ever: Robin - "Holy rusted metal, Batman!" Batman - "What?" Robin - "This metal. It's all rusted and full of holes."
My favorite story behind the making of this movie is Jones telling Carrey “I can’t sanction your buffoonery”. Because seeing how Tommy tackled the character of Two-Face, it’s ironic and hilarious 😂
He should've said "We can't sanction your buffoonery", since Two-Face is, quite literally, of 2 minds on everything (as with the preceding animated series, Harvey Dent is his much more noble half meanwhile Big Bad Harv is a combination of all of his negative aspects, thus resulting in quarrels between the 2 differing sides of his fractured personality) & often uses us/we/our rather than I/me/my when speaking about his dual identity problem.
i was jamming to Hold Me , Thrill Me , Kiss Me , Kill Me, before the movie came out, either on my walkman listening to the the radio on my bike or on my portable cd player with the cd of the soundtrack.
I know my opinion is wrapped in childhood nostalgia, but I love this movie. Even the marketing campaigns and music videos are still vivid in my brain. U2's "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" is a jam.
I always thought it would have made more sense to title this film "Batman & Robin" (since Robin's introduced) and the fourth film titles "Batman Forever" (or "Batman Four-ever")
who remembers the ad from the VHS of '89? "Hello, Gotham Corner Store? Yes, we seem to be down to our last Diet Coke. A gentleman is on his way to pick some up. Just look for the black car... No, this black car will be rather difficult to miss. Oh and by the way, the gentleman is usually in quite a rush."
Jim Carrey mania and riding on the coat tails of the success from the first 2 sequels for sure. But it was the beginning of the end of Batman as we knew it then.
This was my first Batman Movie. My brother got the VHS for Christmas that year, and I got the Power Rangers movie. We watched both back to back for months.
@@michaelgcuk if you put it in the credits after another song, it's so removed from anything in the movie that anyone's going to watch that it's basically out of the movie for all practical purposes
This was my favorite Batman growing up. The scenes where he sees his parents die always made me sad growing up. I still can’t watch this movie anymore I just get sad.
@Kenzie J I am a huge Val Kilmer and Jim Carrey fan that might have something to do with it. I also love the dark aesthetics and the way Gotham looks. There are a lot of reasons why I like this movie. I also like the dark flashbacks it just was the one that resonated with me the most as a child I’m sorry you don’t agree with my opinion.
@Kenzie J this is one of my favorite Batman movies, unironically. I don't like how people only want to see dark batman, I enjoy campy Batman as much as the dark one, and this movie seems to be an in-between both (though leaning more towards the campy side)
Ikr I jammed this CD so hard. Hands down up there with the Crow Ost amongst greats. Soundtracks were the best back then. Carried a real variety of gems of the period.
back in the 90s, every action blockbuster had a power ballad on it's soundtrack that had nothing to do with the movie itself, but still was a massive chart topper
While I remember going absolutely nuts for this movie as a kid, I find that the older I get the less I enjoy it as it's flaws just stand out to me more now
The song kiss from a rose actually fits the movie perfectly as it is about overcoming hardship in life. “The kiss from a rose” is symbolic for a positive change of direction in one’s life. Bruce Wayne dealing with the murder of his parents, as well as Robin coping with loss of his family. Both of whom are searching for a positive outlet to fully be a part of away from their pain.
@@filanfyretracker Man-bat is a different Batman villain, Kirk langstrom who turned himself into a giant bat creature in the same vein as Curt conners "the lizard" from the Spider-Man mythos
I don't care what anyone thinks, I love this movie. That rave/fight scene with Robin is awesome, and when Robin saves Batman at the last second, it still gets me. Kilmer is my huckleberry🖤
I still love it. I prefer Val Kilmer to Bale's stupid voice he does when he's dressed as Batman. It gets a bad rap because Batman & Robin was soooooo bad. Plus Kidman was smoking in it🔥
He actually had a pay or play contract with Warner Bros. for his role as Harvey Dent. He only took the role in '89 because he wanted to be Two-Face. When he was let go, Warner Bros. had to pay him anyway.
Billy Dee Williams himself, has said that when he did the 1989 Batman film, he was only signed for that particular movie. So the story about him having a pay or play contract regarding his role as Two-Face is really an urban legend. You can see him talk about it here ruclips.net/video/O1NXl4C9Bzs/видео.html
Keaton was my favorite batman. I remember going to the theater to see batman forever..it was cool on the big screen... Gotham looked gigantic and scary and intimidating with the large statues and scale of the buildings...I think val was a good Bruce Wayne, he is unique as an actor
I'd agree. I think Val Kilmer is a very underrated actor on the whole, and had he had a darker Batman project to work with, say a Burton or even Nolan-esque style, then I think he would have suited that a lot more and we would have seen him in the role a lot more over the years.
@@mws755 No, he's not. Michael Keaton & Adam West are THE definitive respective grimdark & campy Batman portrayals. Likewise, Kevin Conroy IS Batman in animated media. The end. Val Kilmer & George Clooney sit at the loser's table.
I miss the 90s and this Batman film takes me back to a more relaxed fun time in my life. It's also the same year that Steven Kings The Langoliers was broadcast in May 1995. I think on May 14th and 15th.
I've met Val Kilmer socially. He's very reserved, but likewise polite and amicable. He strikes me as being quite introverted, preferring to remain focused on acting or other personal creative endeavors. I've never worked around him, however. Still, I give him two thumbs up. He's a cool dude.
There is the scene when the Riddler did hang out with Two-Face and one of the girls in the white lingerie is Drew Barrymore. Jim Carrey says the line "does anyone feel like a fried egg?" while testing a gadget the Riddler invented so he can pick up Batman's brain waves and trying to discover Batman's real identity.
I will ALWAYS unashamedly love this movie. I don't mind defending enjoying something even if other people hate it. All art is subjective and even things that are terribly made can bring someone joy!
the Bat-Card. I never leave home without it. Batman & Robin should have been called Batman Ruined. Adam West pulled off campy like a master. Clooney, not so much.
Billy Dee Williams did reprise his role as Two Face in The Batman Lego Movie. Had Marlon Wayans played Robin, it would have been an In Living Color ( the comedy sketch show he was started in, along with Jim Carrey) connection. The comedian George Wallace, who played the mayor of Gotham, had just one line: "What the hell do you want Harvey?" The girl group En Vogue appear as ladies of the night who totally diss Robin. In the film when he's talking to Alfred, we find out what kind of cars Bruce Wayne has in his garage, a Jaguar and a Bentley.
I enjoy watching your videos then watching the movie after to see it from a different perspective. Planned to watch this movie tonight so Im stoked. Thank you!!!
I remember when that movie came out in theaters. My bro Chris was so pissed a the movie that when the batmobile drives up the wall he punched me in the shoulder and walked out the theater angrily.
I love your content dude! Please don't stop I've been bingewatching your videos since I found your channel a few days ago. Keep up the good work and do the movie Airheads when you get a chance✌
The soundtrack is bloody FANTASTIC And I would kill for all the deleted scenes APART from the hairdresser scene Kiss From A Rose... the lyrics are “you became the light on the dark side of me” it’s about Chase understanding Batman
This was my first Batman movie as I was born in 1986 and knew who he was but because of the age rating, my parents didn't show me the Tim Burton ones. Fast forward to today and its still one of my favourite Batman films. I think it's like James Bond, you will always prefer the film/actor of your time so for me it's Val Kilmer as Batman and Pierce Brosnan as Bond!
It's a product of it's time, just look at Billboard, late 80s & early 90s was more grunge & metal, mid 90s was light-hearted and pop oriented, with eurodance (thus the neon overkill) and other fun careless music, that is visually pleasing, catchy, but with little thought behind it. But Forever did bring us Seals "Kiss from a Rose" so it wasn't all bad. It's fun but turn you're brain off lol
It is a pity that Burton did not make the third film about Batman. This movie is cartoonish and in lighter tone than Burton's movies, but I think that Val Kilmer was nice as Batman. Also, I like the songs by U2 and Seal.
Love the videos Minty! I’d love to see videos on The Dirt Bike Kid, Gleaming the Cube, Thrashin, and Youngblood if you needed some suggestions! Although I’m sure you already have a laundry list of movies to work on already
The Riddler has always been my favourite comic book villain and I think Jim pulled it off amazingly as a follow up to Frank Gorshin. I do feel that Robin Williams would have made a great and more sinister version of the riddler though but I'm glad we're finally going to get that with The Batman.
Huh, in that new Harley Quinn animated series Riddler is bald save for a question mark tattooed on his head, I wonder if Jim Carey's idea here inspired that
I just watched it today before I saw this top ten. This version is more like the 60's version. I loved it. Val Kilmer was fantastic😄P.S rest in peace Frank Gorshon.
@@markoutwithmark that’s awesome! I still say that’s the largest Batman set Kenner ever created. I remember the box was massive too! Ah good memories. Was that elevator on the side of the tallest part hard to work? Mine was really tight and not easy to use at all
Mac10 Daddy haha oh for sure, that damn elevator always got stuck so I just left it closed. I remember what sold me on wanting the set was knowing there was a docking bay for the batwing. I thought that was the coolest thing to have ports for all the vehicles. It was definitely the biggest toy set I ever had which is why i took such good care of it. You'd never know it's over 25 years old.
Yeah that's a really low bar though mate 😂 while this is clearly a huge step down from the Burton films, I think it's honestly a perfectly serviceable Batman film. Thats about the best I can say about it
It isn't entirely fair to blame Schumacher, as it was Warner Bros, not Schumacher who insisted on the more campy, light-hearted Batman. Schumacher wrote a script called Batman Triumphant, which was going to be the final part of his trilogy and was much darker. Also Forever saw that the previous Billy-Dee Williams, Harvey Dent had some awful accident and turned into Tommy Lee Jones! Hideous. Also led to some critics complain that Batman Forever was 'Whiteout Batman'. Of course you also have Jim Carey playing... well Jim Carey as always.
This movie was hands down my favorite at the time. We watched it all the time. I remember being so excited about Batman and Robin because I loved this one so much. Went to the theaters opening day and 10 min in when the ice skates popped out of his boots I was done.
I notice that when you're having a bad day, Minty almost always will somehow know to post a video of amazing trivia to take your mind off the bullshit. How do you do it, Minty? Lol
I would say that it should be a sequel and the reason I had is the same as when I was a kid. Alfred. He is the same actor in all four movies before Nolan and bale. They changed every character but him.
A rebellious teenage 30 year old LOL 😂... i’m not sure if you’re being literal because the actor is old and they’re trying to portray him as a teenager or if he is just a 30-year-old that acts like a teenager. I think it’s more the latter due to the writing
You're forgetting it came during the height of Jim Carey's 90s whirlwind. When talking about it not holding the same popularity it had nearly 30 years ago. It came off the heels of Batman Returns which was popular, brought it more stars to the franchise like Val Kilmer & Tommy Lee.
Forever is still just as good as it was when it came out. Even if it felt campy, there are deep psychological aspects to the movie. Also, the story isn't just a Batman movie, but also a Bruce Wayne movie. Not only that, but there's references to past Batman/Superman characters, along with a nod to a real life person.
I think Batman Forever was a hidden blessing. It kept the entire name plate from getting sucked into the same cycle that modern day Marvel movies are stuck in without being able to make different versions of characters.
I'm not going to lie. This movie didn't age well but it's definitely a great part of my childhood/teenage years. Jim Carrey was unstoppable in the 1990s.
'A rebellious teenage 30-year old'. LOL that was a good one.
That’s just what I am!!!
Chris was actually 25 during filming, but who is counting? XD
Scary Movie summed it up best: "If this were a movie... We'd be played by actors in their late 20s/early 30s".

I remember when that movie came out in theaters. My bro Chris was so pissed a the movie that when the batmobile drives up the wall he punched me in the shoulder and walked out the theater angrily.
Is Chris in prison now?
@@unnamedchannel1237 no, even worse. He is a born again christian.
This made me laugh boy.

I love your content dude! Please don't stop I've been bingewatching your videos since I found your channel a few days ago. Keep up the good work and do the movie Airheads when you get a chance✌
Smooth Criminal Trickster. You have earned my respect as well as my like!
Nicely done, sir.
Forever is not shoddy work，but a real gem with the Gothic mythos weaved in
Get off drugs buddy
While it's not exactly Tombstone or Goodfellas, it's-- fortunately-- not Howard the Duck. : )
“BATMAN AHHHHG!”
The soundtrack is bloody FANTASTIC
And I would kill for all the deleted scenes APART from the hairdresser scene
Kiss From A Rose... the lyrics are “you became the light on the dark side of me” it’s about Chase understanding Batman
This was my first Batman movie as I was born in 1986 and knew who he was but because of the age rating, my parents didn't show me the Tim Burton ones. Fast forward to today and its still one of my favourite Batman films. I think it's like James Bond, you will always prefer the film/actor of your time so for me it's Val Kilmer as Batman and Pierce Brosnan as Bond!
It's a product of it's time, just look at Billboard, late 80s & early 90s was more grunge & metal, mid 90s was light-hearted and pop oriented, with eurodance (thus the neon overkill) and other fun careless music, that is visually pleasing, catchy, but with little thought behind it. But Forever did bring us Seals "Kiss from a Rose" so it wasn't all bad. It's fun but turn you're brain off lol
It is a pity that Burton did not make the third film about Batman. This movie is cartoonish and in lighter tone than Burton's movies, but I think that Val Kilmer was nice as Batman. Also, I like the songs by U2 and Seal.
This awesome movie was cartoonish but I liked the cheesy music. What a bitch.
Yeah it was good for the time nostalgic for sure
Love the videos Minty! I’d love to see videos on The Dirt Bike Kid, Gleaming the Cube, Thrashin, and Youngblood if you needed some suggestions! Although I’m sure you already have a laundry list of movies to work on already
The Riddler has always been my favourite comic book villain and I think Jim pulled it off amazingly as a follow up to Frank Gorshin. I do feel that Robin Williams would have made a great and more sinister version of the riddler though but I'm glad we're finally going to get that with The Batman.
"I see without seeing. To me, darkness is as clear as daylight. What am I?"
A mole.
Bat
You're as blind as a bat!
Pllllllleeeeease you're as blind as a bat !
Penguin.
Huh, in that new Harley Quinn animated series Riddler is bald save for a question mark tattooed on his head, I wonder if Jim Carey's idea here inspired that
Th at was supposedly Robin William's idea.
9:23 - HOLY SHIT!!!... I never knew that!... I friggin' love your videos bc I *ALWAYS* learn _AT LEAST_ one thing in each video you put out
I just watched it today before I saw this top ten. This version is more like the 60's version. I loved it. Val Kilmer was fantastic😄P.S rest in peace Frank Gorshon.
I like Carrey but Gorshin will always be the true Riddler to me
What about Michael Gough.
Batman ! Aaaaaahhhhh!
I still have my Kenner batcave playset from this movie. I was all about Batman Forever when it came out.
So cool, i would love to see some pictures of it
The big one? With 3 levels? I got that for Christmas in 95 and loved that thing
@@Mac10Daddy Totally! I've got the whole thing, even the zipline and the missile for the bat canon.
@@markoutwithmark that’s awesome! I still say that’s the largest Batman set Kenner ever created. I remember the box was massive too! Ah good memories. Was that elevator on the side of the tallest part hard to work? Mine was really tight and not easy to use at all
Mac10 Daddy haha oh for sure, that damn elevator always got stuck so I just left it closed. I remember what sold me on wanting the set was knowing there was a docking bay for the batwing. I thought that was the coolest thing to have ports for all the vehicles. It was definitely the biggest toy set I ever had which is why i took such good care of it. You'd never know it's over 25 years old.
MINTY COMEDIC ARTS!! AAAHHHHHHH!!! Kiss by a Rose has to be one of my favourite songs.
batman forever is a guilty pleasure of mine...and i’ve still got the action figures.
That extra sounds like the oldest winner from the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
That's brutal. But yes
This is still okay compared to Batman and Robin
That’s like comparing puke to the runs.
Yeah that's a really low bar though mate 😂 while this is clearly a huge step down from the Burton films, I think it's honestly a perfectly serviceable Batman film. Thats about the best I can say about it
I love Batman's bat credit card and Mister Freeze's suit and his powers.
Deleted scenes from the movie were used in the U2 video for Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me.
It isn't entirely fair to blame Schumacher, as it was Warner Bros, not Schumacher who insisted on the more campy, light-hearted Batman. Schumacher wrote a script called Batman Triumphant, which was going to be the final part of his trilogy and was much darker. Also Forever saw that the previous Billy-Dee Williams, Harvey Dent had some awful accident and turned into Tommy Lee Jones! Hideous. Also led to some critics complain that Batman Forever was 'Whiteout Batman'. Of course you also have Jim Carey playing... well Jim Carey as always.
I loved this movie as a kid and had every single toy
The continuity of Harvey Dent going from Billie Dee Williams to Tommy Lee Jones is astounding!
I think it shows that Batman Forever is not in Tim Burtons Batman universe.
This movie was hands down my favorite at the time. We watched it all the time. I remember being so excited about Batman and Robin because I loved this one so much. Went to the theaters opening day and 10 min in when the ice skates popped out of his boots I was done.
Yep watch this in the cinema plus mac Donald did the theme cup and burger meal for this film batman forever in the uk
The SNES and Genesis games were pretty good.
Funny, that is what mom said about minty
No, no they were not. Have you played them?
*Triggered"
Both pretty horrible really. Haha. The controls still haunt me
Your videos have gotten so much better this was ace
Very underrated
Please do one on the underworld movies.
I notice that when you're having a bad day, Minty almost always will somehow know to post a video of amazing trivia to take your mind off the bullshit. How do you do it, Minty? Lol
U have been tapped into my childhood for ur last few videos brother! Keep them coming bro
The soundtrack is a classic! I still listen to my promo vinyl copy all the time.
I would say that it should be a sequel and the reason I had is the same as when I was a kid. Alfred. He is the same actor in all four movies before Nolan and bale. They changed every character but him.
And Pat Hingle as Gordon
I never realized it was thought of as anything but a sequel. As you said, we had Alfred & commissioner Gordon.
A rebellious teenage 30 year old LOL 😂... i’m not sure if you’re being literal because the actor is old and they’re trying to portray him as a teenager or if he is just a 30-year-old that acts like a teenager. I think it’s more the latter due to the writing
You're forgetting it came during the height of Jim Carey's 90s whirlwind. When talking about it not holding the same popularity it had nearly 30 years ago.
It came off the heels of Batman Returns which was popular, brought it more stars to the franchise like Val Kilmer & Tommy Lee.
Batman Forever had my favourite Batmobile in it, with the cut out ribs and the glowing hubcaps.
Forever is still just as good as it was when it came out.
Even if it felt campy, there are deep psychological aspects to the movie. Also, the story isn't just a Batman movie, but also a Bruce Wayne movie.
Not only that, but there's references to past Batman/Superman characters, along with a nod to a real life person.
This movie is underrated. It is not as good as the original Tim Burton Batman movie, but it is still a fun and enjoyable movie.
It's garbage.
I agree it’s underrated. A lot of people say it’s the worst movie ever, but it’s more like the second worst
@@the_librarian4400 first worst
love your work. Thank you
I think Batman Forever was a hidden blessing. It kept the entire name plate from getting sucked into the same cycle that modern day Marvel movies are stuck in without being able to make different versions of characters.
I actually loved this movie and jim carrey was an inspired choice as Riddler.
"When superheroes were allowed to be fun"
Have you seen Deadpool 1 & 2?
@2:56 iconic poster 🖼️
I have seen this batman more then any Batman movie. It’s my fav. 🤣
I'm not going to lie. This movie didn't age well but it's definitely a great part of my childhood/teenage years. Jim Carrey was unstoppable in the 1990s.
Agreed. I was 14 then, and I loved it AND had a crush on Kilmer. 🤭
It was cool when i was 16 and in high school
That one scene almost killed the movie lol along with the cheesy sound effects, and “oh no it’s boiling acid “, Tommy Lee jones over acting 😂
I think Tommy Lee Jones was trying to be more elaborate and wacky than Jim Carrey.
thanks for your consistently fun videos Minty Mark
I loved sugar and spice..Debbie and Drew were so gorgeous in those roles.
