Actually I loved this film. Yes, Clooney wasn't great but it's Clooney. Chris O'Donnell was great. Alicia Silverstone was cute and hot as hell. It was great to see how she kicks Uma Thurman's ass. Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze wasn't that bad.
i love your videos man! you are extremely talented. look forward to parts 5-7 of batmania!! and more movie reviews please!!! would love to see a review of Aliens, Blade Runner, and Brazil. and also some terrible flicks like AvP Requiem.
i just watched your review on batman and robin and i have to say it was really well done indepth review, bottom line for batman and robin it was the studio's fault for making it light, and when that happened shumaker didnt have any creative freedom over the plot thus making it kid friendly and gay. cause didnt shumaker wanted to do a prequel on the series before they made batman forever. here's the formula for a great batman movie dark + a logical plot + interesting characters= awsome.
Yeah he wanted to do an origin story, based on Batman Year One. But you know, let's look on the bright side. Without this being so over the top and campy there would have been no desire to go "darker" again for Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. After Burton's Batman Returns the studio wanted lighter - they had to learn the hard way this wasn't the right way to go. So credit this film for creating Nolan's films I say.
yeah man this shit is not working, on TMPC page it just has the big empty box for all your movie night reviews, and for the daily motion site, it doesnt even have it their anymore. shit is it my internet connection because i have timewarner cable speed. or are you still fixing it?
Call me crazy, but I LOVE Batman and Robin. Then again, I can COMPLETELY get why people hate this movie. But this is the ONLY Batman movie with Batgirl, Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, and Bane.
i think it is bad, but it holds a special quality to me as it was one of the first movies i ever saw. so, i think it was corny, over the top, and stupid, but thats my kind of movie.
Well think about it for a sec. Its a movie based off a serious character, Batman, Batman returns proved it to be serious, while Batman forever was bad (in my opinion) It didn't degrade itself to this. I think though instead of change of pace, it was taking an entire different step of not caring what the script was like.
:) I have that same quesiton....I'm currently working on the Dark Knight Audio Commentary. Will post a video when that's done. As for the video review, that will take a little bit longer. Thanks for your passion to see it!
batman and robin being made by a gay man, and not the cool gay people, the ones that try and hit on you, and of coarse the pressure from the studio to make it light and campy because of what happened too the batman returns happy meal deal shit. those are all the facts on how the movie went from badass to gay.
I'd really love to listen to your comentary while I watch the movie (yeah I own it) but neither of the players work for me (I'm sure some other people may also have this problem). Would it be to much trouble to post it on Youtube?
oh i love batman and robin! i grew up on that cartoon. thanks for the commentary on this. super appreciated! your voice sound so mellow in here and i like it! this makes me want to go back to watching the batman cartoons! :P
You've done 3 movie nights. I haven't seen any of the movies, but I've enjoyed all of the movie nights and learned something from each.
I watched Dark Knight last night (it is the first DVD I ever bought on the day it came out). I just wish the makers of the movie had understood that you're only supposed to have someone say the name of the movie in a BAD movie...
What do you think of the day the earth stood still? I think it's going to be nothing like the 1950's classic, but it actually does have some ideal casting, like Keanu Reeves, as the completely emotionless robot. Fits him like a glove.
I played the commentary, great job. U have great analyzing skills! It was so true about the logo of the film studio, the 90's were so tacky like that. But hey, as u said it was the style of the time. & the moive wanted 2 just b care free. Like the atmosphere of the time. They did not want 2 concern themselves with how Robin saves Alicia in the Motorcycle scene, or with any drama that might upset the viewer. It was just a fun ride, only showing the action, pretty set design, & costumes. :) :) :)
Hey TMPC, I'm looking forward to watching Batman and Robin because I think the only way I would enjoy that movie is with your sarcastic comments throughout.
Can't wait for the last three bits of Batmania, I bet they'll be awesome despite the long wait. Good job and keep up the good work!
I haven't seen it. I'm sure it's great. Those guys are hilarious. Loved them back in the MST3K days.
For this commentary I didn't want to crack jokes...seemed to easy. There's a few, it's hard to hold back, but I wanted to do more of a filmmakers type critique.
Thank you so much for doing this. I love hearing people discuss movies. So these commentaries are like a dream come true. I would watch night the the moives, but they would only discuss a moive for a couple of minutes. It would be so cool if the whole moive could be discussed. And now you have done it. Thank you so much for all your hard work. And Batman & Robin was not that bad. I actually liked how silly it was. The way over the top costumes & makeup are really a visual feast. 5 stars! :)
Anyone who normally uses Safari as their browser, it's only fair to warn you the audio upload on the MPC website doesn't work. I always use Firefox for that upload.
the cinematography and general visuals are amazing in this film. Very atmospheric. It's just everything else that sucks. I do like how Schumacher makes the film his own by going all out with the punk-erotica theme. It at least expands the Batman onscreen-mythos. Sure to a place it shouldn't be but still, variety is good
You're great. Your views on movies are unique, at least to me. I don't notice things until you point them out, or at least they don't bother me until you point them out. I like Batman and Robin. But listening to you, you make me realize how bad it was.
it's been a wile since ur last video, glad to see u back =D, io love ur preview's, i agree on every1 exept on the cloberfield 1, but it desn't metter or does it lol jk
uh oh....try to refresh the site and give it a minute. If it doesn't work the Dailymotion vid should be processed soon. Usually it's faster on Dailymotion, but I guess since it's over 2 hours the encoding takes longer. Let me know if it works out.
*You my friend are the only critic that I love and trust my dear good friend. Sorry that I had to retype this. By love I mean that I love your videos and your comments.
Ok dude, im a big fan of your page and all of your videos, I always trust your oppinions, and i hope this doesn't come off the wrong way but....seriously dude, just finish TDK move prevew/ review already!
yeeesh
i know it takes a long time to make, so that's why you should put off other projects until youve finished this one!
I actually liked that movie a lot. =( It's one of the only Batman movies I like, besides Dark Knight. I guess I just liked it because I Batgirl was in it...but I thought it was good.
Really looking forward to listening to it. Ive enjoyed the last two and have been meaning write ideas/comments about the past two, but figured they deserved quality insight and I will definitly do that soon.
Too bad I don't have the movie. The commentary would probably make it (gasp!) enjoyable (as in funny).
Also, you might want to experiment a bit with YouTube's new wide format. 16:9 is perfect for movie clips. (Personally, I use 853x480 with a 2 Mb bitrate.)
I was a kid so I liked it and since at the time I was only watching the adam west show and batman forever I used to like this movie.
it wasn't until I became a teen that I noticed the darker tone of the 90s cartoons and got to see the first two movies. So I can't see this as crap but I'll enjoy the commentary none the less.
Hmmmm...probably because I usually write ideas out and read them while recording. Here, I'm just a bit more laid back off the top of my head. At least I hope that's the reason, cause if not, I might be coming down with a cold :(
Yea your voice sound a little more relaxed here. In other videos of yours you seemed like you were rushing, to the point that the last word in one sentence got cut off the the first word in the next sentence. Both ways are fine. I hope you are fine and have not caught a cold. Take care of yourself mpc! :)
I call this movie Batgirl and Robin.

and the second part; well, saying the title in the movie is something cool movies did. then bad movies copied it to seem cool and gave it a bad rep.
But I think it's perfectly adequate in the dark knight and makes sense.
