The Evolution of Batgirl

[videozfann]

People may hate this movie but I liked Alicia being Batgirl. Love the funny comments and the way people take this shit so seriously not just here but on other B and R clips.

[electricEntity81]

where was the footage at 1:36 from?

[DDevospartan]

@electricEntity81 Birds of Prey

[electricEntity81]

@DDevospartan I never saw it, just checked it out, it's like a smallville/charmed version of Batman yeah?

wtf? how did I miss this!?!, did it not come over to the UK?

[DDevospartan]

@electricEntity81 Well I couldn't tell I'm from Mexico, if I got my info right it has only 13 episodes, it features an alternate future never heard since the first crisis I do not know if there is a box set. I do not see it as bad as B&R or BF but then again I saw it six years ago.

[pav777tube]

Say, what's the name of that song?

[666tsirhcitna]

@pav777tube Joe 90 Theme

[BluDrgn426]

woa woa, where'd that second live action batgirl come from? I don't remember seeing that before

[axelgermann]

60s batgirl was HOT!!!

[BauerPower2012]

The batgirl suit-up from batman and robin is really hot, crap movie tho.

[MonkeyThunder5]

It's been a while since I saw an episode of the 60's Batman show with Batgirl.. did she do anything other than kick?..

[hydrolito]

The height Batgirl fell to fight Poison Ivy she should have broken both her legs. Batgirl isn't Wonder Woman or Supergirl you know.

[free2drm]

Alicia Silverstone was hands-down, the worst Batgirl. She sucked and was not nearly pretty enough. They should've called her Fatgirl

[astrofabio68]

the best "birds o preys " version and Ivonne Craig

[m9r1r5]

yvonne craig was the best you can keep all the other versions her's kicks ass (no pun intended LOL)

[fgmPostApocalypticTV]

What's the deeply annoying gurgling sound the first 12 seconds about??

[kgmaj]

Yvonne Craig is my fav. That revolving wall and hidden Batgirl cycle win me over everytime. Can't believe that was over 40 years ago.

[APOLONIUMX]

0:42 bati camel toe =D 

[michaelhviper]

What one is the one at 1:34?

[digdugggr]

@michaelhviper

Possibly Birds of Prey??

[FiswaT]

nice

[freakzilladark]

yvonne craig  was the best

[starsiegeplayer]

Those stiletto heel boots were ridiculous. Nobody is going to be able to kick butt in stiletto heels. At least the more recent animated series had flat shoes.

[XMLarry]

More like through the year, she was only on the show for it's final season

[YetAnthony]

This song is the shit.

[andyandymax]

I'd tap any of those versions, but my heart belongs to Yvonne Craig.

[SuperWolsey]

@andyandymax Mine says Dina Meyer

[Arxsa]

The Batman was a horrible, horrible attempt at a cartoon. Gods, nothing compares to Batman: The Animated Series.

[Tov0voT]

I agree, the first and last versions are best.

[yonoko465]

Yvonne Craig was banging back in the day

[weedfromXXth]

i like the "one move fighter" of the '60s...kick in the face:zap! kick in the face:whap! kick in the face:kapow! lol

[eioroug]

the song sux

[billygrimmuwo]

0:42 camel toe

[bkev93]

I never understood why they bothered with a wig from Yvonne Craig. She was the best portrayal, and would've been definitive if - you know - it wasn't Batman from the '60s.

[Hellkid1231]

where's the second last bat girl from

[robodudeable]

oricle's flash backs in birds of prey

[TheZacula]

Yeah... but the CHARACTER just gets better over the years. And that Batman movie? Does. Not. Count. It nearly wrecked the franchise and it nearly wrecked George Clooney and Tommy Lee Jones. We were all so lucky they avoided perishing in it's awfulness.

[bijibadness]

THEIGH ME UP UNCLE AFFRED - i think the entire cast and crew on 'batman and robin' were drunk as hell

[plugginmuffin]

Best was BTAS and TNBA.

[grkpektis]

more like devolution, she went from a hottie in the 60's to a fat ass in 90's

[sasamichan]

Batgirl might pop up in Batman Brave and the Bold yet. or maybe in one of the new batman movies? 

[yonibony1]

zap! ;))

[jasdevil12]

Bat nipples

[ted5529608]

she likes to kick..

[mightykamina2009]

1:12 to 1:14 she was like "Eat fist, asshole!"

[onlyone23km]

I loved alicia as batgirl. she just had the bang factor in every aspect in my opinion!

[knytrydr73]

@onlyone23km : She was a'ight! Maybe if the script had been better.

[onlyone23km]

@knytrydr73 yeah, the script wasn't that great, i have to agree. but i remember it very well, from the beginning to end. starting with "I want a car... chicks dig the car." "this is why superman works alone.

[theevilsmurf88]

damn the animation on The Batman was freaking awful

[gungriffen]

Batman TAS gave Batgirl the most credit as a capable Bad Ass! 1:10 is all the proof you need....

[lowlypeasant]

De-volution is more like it.

[manufran02]

wait if Batgirl is the good one , then her joker would be Harley Quinn .

[jaxspider]

The good part starts at 40 seconds in.

[apex2000]

why the 90 theme? and not really an evolution, more of a swimming around in circles

[felikane]

0:44 holy bati camel toe batman!

[cmatza]

Birds of Prey. Show had Barbara Gordon as "Oracle". Once or twice she put on the old BG outfit.

[junglemanlawyer1]

1:36 TO 1:44, which show is that from?

[mythlica]

Damn, how can you fight villains in those heels?

[3piper]

Yvonne Craig.Man ,man that girl could highkick!!

[JEFFYjackass]

what the hell was at 1:35 is that a show or movie????

[rubberdu]

The DeEvolution of Batgirl ?

:)

[xxsteveo420xx]

Alicia Silverstone was the worst batgirl ever. Yes, she is hot, but she sucked. No emotion, she was boring as hell. The script may have sucked, but look what poison ivy did with it. She turned out that script and did a killer job, knowing the whole time the movie was a disaster flick. She was the only good part of B&R.

[tolchok89]

@xxsteveo420xx Agreed. Similar deal with Arnold. I'll take overacting over underacting any day.

[gplus46]

@xxsteveo420xx

I agree...I felt the same way about casting for Charlie's Angels. CD and LL were tolerable but Drew Berrymore....? I'm sorry but the lisp thing doesn't cut it for an Angel. her whole look was wrong. imo

[thx113thx]

The clips were good but was it necessary to use the music from JOE 90.

[perkulez]

Alicia Silverstone was cute, I would definitely get in a Bat-tub with her :)

[a7xfan20]

@perkulez

Did you really pull a Batman & Robin and make a pun??

Lmao.

[chanapan49]

1:06 that's awful

[Astraldragon1]

@ComicBookGoth , concidering what Batman carrys in his utility belt your going to complain that Batgirl had a Bat Credit Card?



between the TV show , comics and Cartoons....Batman had everything in his belt......you see Scooby-Doo He had a Bat cookie in his belt. In the movie based off the TV show he had a Bat Shark repellent. just to name a few plus tons of other things in that utility belt he wears.

[Astraldragon1]

I agree nice shot at 0:46 of Alicia's Silverstone's ass...she looked hot and Sexy in that suit.

Both Yvonne Craig and Alicia Silverstone were great playing Batgirl. I liked both of them.

[serpientes83]

i love the part where they only show alicia silvesrtone's ass lol

[BATMANWOLVERINE007]

jeprice is right she looked blasted sexy in that suit . Hey I cant stop ya from disagreein but i think Alicia Silverstones a gorgeous Batgirl.

[smalvina]

cute

[zdevlin88]

at 1:38 was that a clip from Birds of Prey?

[jlf2032]

yeah. it was birds of prey

[oneworldfamily]

Everyone knows girls can't punch!

[bdawg201]

holy shit she keeps on kicking everybody i mean at least get punches

[simboy9]

heh heh bat credit card heh heh bat nipples he heh lets kick some ice wait thats not cool or funny sry arnold it just isint

[ApockalipsProduction]

You gota hate the music

[supermanfan62]

batgirl became a crippled

[cyruscjj]

then she became the oracle

[yonhee3]

Yvonne Craig is the only true batgirl! Yvonne had the best hourglass figure!

[thegmanofEAP]

wait, whos that real life one near the end?

[jas10301]

That was from the short-lived series Birds of Prey where Barbara Gordon was already Oracle but it had flashbacks of her life as Batgirl. It's on DVD it was a pretty good show.

[ramonflash]

i think she is the batgirl from birds of prey

but i'm not sure

[HippyShake9]

The best Batgirl of all time is my cat! lol! I named her after Batgirl! ^_^

[BLAKERZ91]

So wouldn't that be Catgirl? Lol jk

[HippyShake9]

Lol! Yeah, I almost named her Catwoman, but I always liked Batgirl better. :)

[redmark19666]

Aiicia Silverstone was Thee worst Batgirl of all time but I Blame the Script and writer.......no one will over defeat Yvonne Craig anymore than any Actress could top Julie Newmar or Eartha Kitt as The Catwoman............I guess only Writers in the 60's understood these Woman.......

[KELS08EY2008]

yeah the script was not so good, i thought she was ok, but i didnt like the way they wrote her

[PhantomBats]

Batgirl in Batman TAS and the New Batman Adventures are the best

[fortyfivish]

Yvonne is the BEST!

[BrothuhRabbit]

Y'know there's only two women who should even be considered for "Best Batgirl", and they're both real-people. Forget the cartoons when you have the real thing...dorks.

Yvonne Craig ... or ... Alicia Silverstone!!!

Now ... Which is it?

[sugarfan2007]

Yvonne Craig

[drlove1972]

Alicia Silverstone SUCKS!!!, as Batgirl at least. She should never be mentioned in the same sentence as Yvonne Craig, the one and only Batgirl.

[Girardifan]

In the clips from 1:45 to 2:13, which are taken from the later episodes of the animated series "The Batman", why did the animators make Batgirl so skinny? She looks like she hasn't had a decent meal in months!

[Rousalaine]

Not to mention the fact that she's wearing a skirt...

[astrofabio68]

for me the bes batgirl was in Birds of Preys

[Wingweaver09]

thank the gods thatt they didn't make batgirl with her undies outside her pants like batman and robin, it would be disturbing if she did but that just me... i dunno about you guys

[Didopan]

0:41 to 0:48 is pure win

[Rousalaine]

Shut up... NOTHING from Batman & Robin could EVER be classified as 'win'.

Everything about that film is pure dog barf mixed with horse shit, and dripping pus from a warthog's anus. This film, including Bratgirl Alicia Silverstone is made of pure FAIL.

Thank god for Chris Nolan. Even if Batgirl never shows up in the new films, Nolan made sure that in any case, Commissioner Gordon has a daughter, and she's got red hair.

[Didopan]

lmfao i guess you dont like women =p

[NPChilla]

Is that the Joe 90 theme tune?

[Fonjil]

Yes.

[brgvt97]

Nobody can touch Yvonne Craig.

[Fonjil]

Apparently Adam West tried to on numerous occasions.

[brgvt97]

Ha Ha. Yeah, in the third season Bruce Wayne has the hots for Barbara Gordon. Yvonne Craig was the best Batgirl ever.

[Rousalaine]

I have to dissagree. The award for best Batgirl goes to The New Batman Adventures.

[brgvt97]

I have to disagree. The award for best Batgirl goes to Yvonne Craig.

[PhantomBats]

thank u

[GrandWebmaster]

Accoring to her memoirs, Mr. West tried, but he wasn't nearly as much of a pest about it as Elvis was. Neither succeeded.

[tolchok89]

You know, Kristen Stewart might be an interesting choice for Batgirl now...

[narutochico]

..true.

[tolchok89]

But only if Hayden ultimately turns down the role should it be open.

[diddymuck]

where is the segment 1:36 taken from?

[Fonjil]

It's from the Birds of Prey tv series.

[FoxDemonMaster]

@Fonjil good show highly underrated

[jeprice08]

0:44 - 0:48 Alicia Silverstone is "Booty" ful!

[narutochico]

...nice...

[Canaboy12]

i would be impressed if i could find a Female Men's Rights Lawyer..

[phonemeyou]

1:18 - 1:34 is my favorite batgirl

[wowurnotgood]

If Batgirl were to be in an upcoming movie, my first pick would be Hayden Panettiere.

Perhaps I'll ask her if/when I see her at Supanova.

[Howyaduing]

NO NO NO I see her more like fitting in Supergirl shoes than Batgirls

[Rousalaine]

So let me get this straight...

You think Alicia's acting was wooden, and then you want to cast a Disney Channel Britney Spears-Clone Teeny Bopper as Batgirl in a Christopher Nolan Batman film/Batgirl Spin-off?

If we're gonna pick one from that catagory, at least pick one that shows SOME resemblance to Barbara Gordon, instead "She looks HAWT!!1! N!cE @SS!!".

The Batman films are not about getting hot chicks in rubber suits, those days are over! If you want that, rent a porno...

[wowurnotgood]

I believe she's a great actress in Heroes.

I go for acting chops, not looks.

It's just a personal opinion.

[wowurnotgood]

If I wanted a Disney Channel Britney Spears-Clone Teeny Bopper as Batgirl, I would have picked Miley Cyrus or Demi Lovato.

The former "actress" sucks.

[wowurnotgood]

I actually explained my idea to Ms. Panettiere, and her response was a very enthusiastic "thank you!"

I would say she finds the idea interesting. If not, then she's a REALLY good actress.

[Rousalaine]

In the end the director decides who would be casted,and regardless of her acting skills, she doesn't have the looks. Too much of a 'typpical blond tanned babe' look, to put it mildy. Not like anyone you'd expect in the Nolanverse, besides those horrible women 'Partyboy Bruce' hangs out with, but those are just for show, and have nothing to do with real people in Gotham like Barbara Gordon.

[Rousalaine]

First you drool over Alicia's ass, then name an actress who looks like your averige blond TV sleaze, and then claim you're not about looks, but acting?

There is a certain physique that an actress must have to be able to play this character.

They wouldn't cast an actor for Batman if he's shorter then 5'7", and while TAS Batgirl is 5'3", she is often shown with a short upperbody and long legs. Panettiere has the opposite of that, and a Batgirl with short legs make no sense.

[wowurnotgood]

Say what you will. I still think she'd be better than Alicia Silverstone.

[Rousalaine]

ANYONE would be better then Alicia Silverstone.

[wowurnotgood]

Dismissing Hayden Panettiere due to size is not all that different than dismissing Aaron Eckhart as Two-Face just because he's blonde, whilst Two-Face has brown/black hair in the comics.

Or dismissing Heath Ledger's Joker because he has facial scarring instead of falling into a vat of toxic chemicals.

[Rousalaine]

No it isn't. Who do you think would be better at kicking people in the face? Christian Bale or Danny DeVito?

The point is that Panettiere has very short legs, and this makes it impractical for her to be a superheroine in the Nolan films.

[wowurnotgood]

Ah, okay. Kind of like that episode of the Simpsons where Bart is dismissed because he's an inch too short.

I see what you mean. It's just that it's hard, nay, near impossible to name any other young female actresses in that age group that could play Batgirl. Most of the ones I've seen kind of suck, and it seems like their only purpose is to give guys sexual fantasies.

I'm just not that much of a nitpicky nerd. Maybe fight scenes could be written to suit her physique.

[narutochico]

Exactly nice plan dude.

[Rousalaine]

Alicia Silverstone shouldn't even be allowed to be mentioned. Specially not in the context of the character's 'evolution', because it wasn't evolution, it was brutal character rape the likes of wich comicbook history had never seen before.

I thank god for Bruce Timm and Paul Dini and their DCAU, for giving us the greatest Batgirl in the history of the character.

Alicia Silverstone also talks like she she had a stroke, wich made the character even more laughable.

[limestoneroad]

Bat girl and cat woman fighting at 0:35, now there's a hot teen fantasy come to life.

[54viruses]

I'd say she's come a long way from the only thing she could really do being kicks. : )

[carnivalofsouls2047]

The real Batgirl would murder you in your sleep while you were still clutching your captain picard action figure. Keepin' it real.

[Harleysayswhat]

cartoon batgirls ftw

[wowurnotgood]

I give Alicia Silverstone's performance a D-. I've seen trees less wooden. The only reason she passed was because she looked so damn HOT in that suit!

Now if Hayden Panettiere were to portray the character, I'd admire the performance, as well as be turned on.

[drdrew42]

I didn't think Silverstone worked, they could of at least dyded her hair. I thought they should have gotten Sarah Michelle Gellar.

[crowandconkers]

I'd forgotten how awesome the Joe 90 theme tune was!

Great Batgirl clips too.

[bluethunder25]

0:47 baby got booty!

[auricalco]

for me ivon greg was the best batgirl, she used to be bondage and traped by villians, unfortunatelly in the movie with Silverstone did not this have nver happened, Batgirl was a girl playing the rol of a dominatrix, in the movie she was literaly a maid.

It would have been nice seeing AS in blue latex trapped by poison ivy.

[dogterd]

Easy there big fella!!

[FujiCahn]

yay for 'zap!!!' kicks!

[coolsonic92]

from where is clip 1:14

[wundersteve]

It's from the 2002 WB series Birds of Prey, starring Dina Meyer as Batgirl/Oracle. The series was released on DVD this year.

[ratedr739]

Yvonne Craig Is the one..So Hot and sexy mekes me Drool everytime i see her in her batgirl outfit...THE ORIGINAL BATGIRL--Yvonne Craig....

[kurumais]

the two animated batgirls worked best

[hotgritz4sho]

yvonne craig is the only batgirl for me. did anyone notice in this summer's batman movie they didn't even show lil' barbara gordon's face when she was kidnapped by the joker. i thought that was a clever wink at the audience as if to say we'll never see batgirl in a batman film again.

[HorseCrazyWarrior]

Where's the clip at 1:35 from?

[rbobinsky]

Oh, come one! Silverstone as "Fatgirl"? The whole premise of her character was flawed!! First, for 40 years, she's been Gordon's daughter. Now, she's Alfred's neice, but without any British accent...? Nope, Yvonne Craig was, and always will be, the best Batgirl! She's still raising heart rates in that costume, and she's so graceful. Yep, she's the best!!!

[drshnty]

in my opinion

alica silverstone was the best

she looked super hawt(:

[markthebaldguy]

that cameltoe shot of Silverstones gave me heart palpitations and a full hard on

[2DNoodleRusselmurdoc]

ZAP!!!! lol CRASH!! BOOM! and seriussly her tits in the suit could pook your eyes out

[tringrad50]

I like the Cass Cain Batgirl over the Barbra Gordan Batgirl.

[ColeVecsion]

oh god, alicia silverstone bat girl! my eyes! they burn!!!! they buuurrrrrn! goddamn you joel silver!!!!

[ColeVecsion]

whoops i meant "goddamn you Joel Schumacher!!" goddamn joel silver for the last two matrix movies!!!

[tringrad50]

We know what you mean my friend. She's pretty but no batgirl.

[JokerishDish]

I think that the Birds of Prey BG is WAY better then the Batman and Robin BG...!

(But hey, that's just me ;) )

[ichirub]

How does a kick make a "zap" sound??? The purple suit looks horrible.

[Fonjil]

It's the purple suit. When you kick, it goes ZAP!

[BGXRFan4eva]

Funny how in the old series, Batgirl was ALWAYS standing on a table and kicking with her little heels. That show was soo predictable.

[Howyaduing]

she realy knows how 2 kick

[sameegrl]

The animated footage at 0:39, what is that from?

[RodimusBen]

Pretty cool.

[warsman111]

alica silverstone made me love batgirl

[Howyaduing]

I know she was hot in the movie in those tight spandex outfits the boots and that tight ass man!

[jeprice08]

I'm going to have to agree with you fellas! For a time, I thought she was the sexiest female superhero, mainly because of Alicia Silverstone and her Batgirl outfit. Without Alicia Silverstone going into her outfit and the showing off of her drop dead gorgeous buns, I wouldn't have wanted to waste my time to see this film everytime it comes on. Her shot of going into her outfit and her buns, to me, are the best things in the film. To this day, everytime I see her buns, I get excited!

[Rousalaine]

Lol... Man, i envy your guts... You just came out and told everyone... That you love the Batgirl that EVERYONE hates.

Alicia Silverstone was by far the WORST Batgirl EVER. Though a big part of this is because she wasn't Barbara GORDON.

The costume looked horrible. The ridiculous stiletto boots, and also those silly gloves that make her look like she was ready to do a rectal examination on a cow.

Most of all, the mask was wrong. Batgirl wears a Batmask, not a cheap copy of Robin's mask.

[jeprice08]

I thank you, Rousalaine, for saying I have guts, but I said never said I loved her. I was just agreeing with what warsman111and Howyaduing said. Personally, my favorite would have to be Yvonne Craig!

[prowresler]

this is the movie with differant director so how ever he see it

[djshepdog]

what film / tv show is 1.37 taken from???

[Fonjil]

That's from the TV show Birds of Prey.

[djshepdog]

What is 1.39 taken from????

[HeartBreakKid79]

uh DEERRR

thats her boots

[greenboy07]

cool you gonna do one of robin/nightwing
