I love Batman Forever. I really hate the fans that say Batman Forever is very bad because it's not over-the-top dark. As you hear in this interview Joel Schumacher was not trying to make a dark movie. He was trying to bring a comic book to life which he did beautifully! Thank you Joel Schumacher!
It genuinely makes me so happy to see people showing Batman Forever love. Its definitely one of my favourites. Super underrated and has some beautiful shots! Kilmer also did a really good job as Batman and Bruce Wayne
Batman Forever not perfect but it's little more forgiving than Batman and Robin. Joel Schumacher was not a bad filmmaker. He had a solid career as a film director. Anytime I watch The Lost Boys and 8MM I think to myself if it was not for the studio pressuring him to make a lighthearted Batman movie. Schumacher could have made a dark Batman movie.
This real life villain even bragged about having sex with over 20,000 people. As ugly as he is, it’s obvious most of it was not consensual. There’s only 365 days in a year so if it was 1 different person each day, it would take 54 years to get to that number. How is that even possible unless he was involved in human trafficking ring. I feel bad for all the victims.
I love this movie so bad. i don't understand why so much hate at this movie. it wasn't that bad at all. good villans and kilmer was a good batman. jim carrey stels the movoe as the riddler
Yeah I actually had fun with this movie lol. It’s not a great film by any stretch but as long as you don’t take it too seriously, it’s good fun to watch and is entertaining. I didn’t mind this at all- but there’s no excusing the sequel to this one lol.
@@usayeed727 inthought it was great... I wasn't expecting nolan's real version.. which had horrible fighting. Zach had a good run but let's see what the New BATMAN does.
Falling Down your best movie every and a movie that hits hard for a lot of people Joel, thank you for bringing us that film, and I hope you're resting in peace.
I like Batman Forever, but I can accept that it's not a good movie. But I can also accept that Joel Schumacher put his all into the film and I can appreciate that
But he didn't. He killed the batman franchise for eight years until our lord and saviour Christopher nolan and everyone else involved gave us of the best series of films and that is the dark knight trilogy!
The man never had anything to apologize for. He made two, while not exactly "good", still passion-fueled, energetic, lively, zany, and all around fascinating takes on Batman, even if they were far from terrific films. His interpretation on Batman is no less valid than others regardless of how silly one views it, or others.
Batman Forever is a flawed film but I feel that Val Kilmer gave a strong performance, the direction was controversial and I wasn’t a huge fan of Two-Face in this portrayal. Still the film was a huge commercial success and made for pure Batman fanboy entertainment and marketability.
If Batman Forever had the serious tone of Batman '89, it would have been f'n awesome. Robin should have been 6-8 years younger or have O'Donnell just be Nightwing, and through brief flashbacks show Two-Face kill the Grayson family and as Robin. That would have kicked ass.

It is really hard creating a great movie, I'll admit that batman forever and batman and robin are not as good as the other batman films but we need to admire him because without him creating these films we would never have got a movie with. Mr freeze, riddler, poison ivy and some parts of the film are brilliant just needs to be sorted out but I am thankful for the films that he created. They are fun to watch but there just not as good as nolans and burtons. Don't give him hate, he's a good director
he is a very good director but Zack is too Dawn of the Dead,300,Watchmen,Man of steel (yes,I loved that film) Just beacuase he had 2 or 3 not well recived doesn't mean he is a terrible or even a bad director, even Steven Spielberg had pretty bad movies just see ''Always'' and ''Kingdom of the Crystal Skull'', very horrible movies.
I h@te this guy so much for what he said about val.. Val knew batman and tried to be true and dark.. He was treated like a puppet and told to stand where he's supposed to.. They gave him an impossible suit that shrinks after two weeks and he hyper ventilates in it.. And then Schumacher (who did batman and Robin when val quit. That gives u an indication of how much val was important to make the movie work).. Schumacher called him difficult and impossible just because he wanted to do his job right? When he asked why the character did something.. Schumacher said : you're batman.. You go on with it!

Batman Forever is way better then Batman Returns, people who say otherwise are deluding themselves. Tim burton didn't have a clue what it takes to make a Batman film and he didn't understand the Batman character. Whereas Joel Schumacher is a Batman fan and he understands the character. Plus Batman Forever took more money at the box office then Batman Returns and Val Kilmer is a better Batman/Bruce Wayne then Michael Keaton.
No way batman returns is better the dark tone Tim Burton made batman more scary and spooky and Tim Burton's batmans gave you nightmares and Val kilmer is more athletic and agile than keaton I agree and Val is a cool batman but just in all the wrong scenery of neon lights and kids play. Micheal keatons batman was scouting the villians and a dark tone to a eerie spooky scenery and micheal keatons batman endings have a story not like forever and batman and robin micheal keaton is the original batman.
@Kyle Jett Warner Brothers Studios felt that Batman Returns was too dark and violent for younger audiences. There were strong creative differences between Tim Burton and W&B production execs. That’s why they toned the film down and brought in Joel as the directors gave the film more humor and a “Campy” vibe with the less scary villains.

He did a great job bringing it to life and he's right, Val looked great in the batsuit

Schumacher is an underrated director. The Client, The lost boys, Tideland and Phone booth are all great films.
I agree. I also like Phantom of the Opera.
@Rodrigo Giordani Don’t forget the movie Falling Down with Michael Douglas

not the greatest film maker he had a solid career as a filmmaker.
Thank you Joel for Batman Forever!!!!!

Batman Forever was perfect for the time it was released and I was the perfect age to really enjoy it at 12 years old! I loved Summer 95!

@Luis Umana It’s an entertaining movie I prefer it over Batman & Robin and Batman V Superman
@@mikestone8756 Yea, same here.
Forever had seeds of a good movie. The cast was great.

Schumacher In Hell Forever🔥
Joel could have made an amazing Batman film. Lost Boys showed his potential as a director.
But he didn't. He killed the batman franchise for eight years until our lord and saviour Christopher nolan and everyone else involved gave us of the best series of films and that is the dark knight trilogy!
@@isaiahyinko7182 nolan gave a great Batman film but it was way too real.
Yes I agree. Joel said he wanted to make Batman Year One but the studio told him to make a lighter Batman movie.
Glad he is dead! Justice for Corey Haim!

And over sexualized
he really cares about humor...

1:58 Fun working with the cast?
I heard he had trouble with Val Kilmer for fighting with a crew member, and Tommy Lee Jones hating Jim Carry.

Joe wanted to studios fault
Why does everyone think Chris O’Donnell was too old? I have never thought this

he reminds me of Khan for some reason
This movie was fantastic!
The movie sure is a living comic book. I think he nailed it, even though the script is campy. This movie is so much fun to watch
batman forever was great!
stop lmao
It wasn't bad so you stop.
B atzy Wow that's really rude.
oh my bad
Agree it doesn't deserve the shit it gets
I really with they'd release his cut of the film...

If you have a rule of NOT making sequels
You better stick to that rule

Now he is in hell forever🔥
i've come to accept the fact that he is a better director than zack synder
Will Brock Yeah no
Deric James u ever see lost boys
he is a very good director but Zack is too Dawn of the Dead,300,Watchmen,Man of steel (yes,I loved that film) Just beacuase he had 2 or 3 not well recived doesn't mean he is a terrible or even a bad director, even Steven Spielberg had pretty bad movies just see ''Always'' and ''Kingdom of the Crystal Skull'', very horrible movies.
I enjoy both director's style of directing. Each brings something different to the table.
Both are great in their own way. It’s not a fact that one is better than the other
Bill Finger unsung creator of BatMan
Bob should've been ashamed for keeping the credit line from Bill. And DC isn't innocent either.
He said thank god prince prince dead lmao by fanel fabien because this one is Shane... laughing not bye
I h@te this guy so much for what he said about val.. Val knew batman and tried to be true and dark.. He was treated like a puppet and told to stand where he's supposed to..

When he asked why the character did something.. Schumacher said : you're batman.. You go on with it!
It's meant to be entertainment, not a heavy movie...
And it all went to shit after that.
Like if the Burton films ware heavy movies
This should've been Tim's third Batman installment
I don't hate Batman and Robin becuse Bane is in it xD

He sure loves villains. He can relate to them more. 1:12
There should be more gay people making comics.
@4:40 Joel loved himself some Val
I can't stop laughing

I bet this guy frequents leather bars often
the vaguely BDSM inspired looks Harvey Dent's goons sport supports this theory
Now he frequents hell🔥
Yeah, I think I am ugly enough to be a director in a future
It's not meant to be a heavy movie. WTF man, you ruined the series?!
