I first saw 'Batman Returns' in mid-1995. I saw the mid-1989 'Batman', shortly afterwards. I was 6½ when I first watched those movies & I was psyched out of my mind. As a Batman fan when I was a kid, I loved both movies & still feel that they're enjoyable in their own respective ways...

It's all about the Cat&Bat love story for me. This is more Selena's movie than anyone's really, and actually a very Feminist movie because of that(take a shot every time Tony says or references "Woke" during this episode). Getting pushed out of window was kind of the best thing that ever happened to her. Until she had a near-death experience and snapped, she was wasting her life trying to be someone she fundamentally wasn't. Then, instead of finding fulfillment through a relationship, she finds a relationship through self-fulfillment.

Burton's Batman films have that special charm that for me will never go away. I enjoyed '89 more because of Nicholson's Joker, but I thought that darkness of this one hit me a little more. Michelle Pfeiffer is purrrfect as Catwoman and DeVito kills it as a weird ass Penguin. I love this movie! Also, I love the commitment from all of you in this episode.

This is my favorite Batman movie and in my top 5 all time favorite movies!! When I was an awkward geeky teen Catwoman changed my way of thinking!!

Btw he has met you several times and has nothing but good things to say about you!!

@CaptainAmercia Год назад

I personally love this film, has aged so much better than Batman 1989 which suffers alot from it's matt paintings and set design which looks great visually but you can start to tell that they're clearly on sets. But Returns still looks amazing and they've just approve on everything when it comes to how Gotham looks not to mention the unique Soviet inspired architecture they added to Gotham in this film and the whole winter setting adds so much to the tone.

The Red Triangle Gang were some of the most unforgettable characters in the movie. I had a nightmare of being in the Plaza when they attacked, and finding myself unable to escape because a vast trapeze net had burst out of the giant box with them, and I kept tripping over the net's lattice. I thought they were going to capture me for sure before I woke up.

@danmann861 Год назад

I remember seeing it in a cinema at 6 years old. I’ve always loved this film. It’s my personal favourite Batman movie. Sure, it’s not comic accurate but I love it for that reason. It’s Burton’s own unique take on Batman and that’s why I love it ☺️ He didn’t give a fuck what the fanboys wanted and just made his own vision and I appreciate it more and more as I get older.

@StevenSeril Год назад

Crystal is awesome! More Crystal!

@bluetarantulaproductions6179 Год назад

What I think they should have done with Catwoman in Batman Returns is have Selina Kyle still be Max Shreck's assistant who has financial problems and get fired for seeing something she wasn't supposed to see. So now being unemployed she decides to become a thief (also have it that she grew up and around Haley's Circus, her dad was a lion tamer and her mother was an escape artist). So Selina decides to take up a life of crime and to expose Shreck's illegal scheme...then Batman catches her stealing stuff, etc.)

@zbh9268 Год назад

I love Batman storylines set during winter so this one ranks pretty high for me. I doesn't have to be set during Christmas, but I just admire how Gotham looks in the frigid cold of winter. I think it's the time of year that fits Gotham the most because of its unforgiving nature. Halloween is a close second favorite though.

Loved the movie and the video game. I prefer the SNES version to the Sega Genesis one. Edit: There was supposed to be an extended action sequence where Batman and Catwoman save Gotham's kidnapped children from the train. But the idea was scrapped due to budget. You can play a version of that scene in the game, tho.

@danielcontreras561 Год назад

28:42 I disagree with Frank because I believe this film misuses Chekhov's gun since the taser only appears in the opening and end of the film. I would've agreed with Frank if Catwoman pulled out the taser during her first meeting with Penguin. For example, when Penguin closes in on Catwoman while she is lying seductively in his bed. She could've used her taser there to defend herself from Oswald. In my opinion, a better film that used Chekhov's gun is "Monsters, Inc." with Boo's laughter as the film utilized it 3 times (first in Mike and Sulley's apartment, then in the hallway when Boo and Sulley are reunited in the factory, and third during the door chase with Randall). It also helped in the Pixar film, Boo's laughter was not a forgotten detail as the filmmakers used it every once in a while.

What batman returns has is a delicious tango of villains, alot of moving pieces, a very heavy narrative about duality and you get a very adult themed storyline, something that the first batman lacked, over theatrics aside batman returns is a wonderful story, and as an adult you really do get to appreciate it more and realise less batman in this film works better.
