Joel Schumacher's turn for Batman.....WHY?

OK once again thank you all for your 156 pageviews! Means a lot to me! For today's review, I'm going to review both Batman Forever and Batman and Robin. Tim Burton decided he had enough Batman and gave it to Joel Schumacher. Batman Forever stars Val Kilmer as Batman and for some reason I don't enjoy him as much as Micheal Keaton. The story is Gotham's DA,Harvey, was attacked by the mob and half his face is disfigured. He blames wrongfully blames Batman for this. The other villain is The Riddler who is Edward Nigma who works for Wayne Corp. and wants revenge on Bruce Wayne for snubbing his mind-control project. Bruce's love interest this time is Dr Chase Meridian and they go to a circus for their first date. However, there they witness Two-Face killing the circus's main stars except for Richard Grayson. Richard Grayson moves in with Batman and they become Batman and Robin and they stop  the villain. The thing I don't like about this movie is that it could be so much more. The Riddler found out Batman identity,they trash the Batcave, they have Robin, yet they didn't play these to their full potential. Especially Robin,they could show Batman training him, dealing with a partner who,like him, also loses his parents,helping Robin get over his tragedy and such but they didn't have much of that. And the villains are stupid, they are shallow and not all that complex. The movie's not bad, its just not good. Average I guess, because they had good action and good plot just didn't know how to show it and the pacing's off. Batman and Robin is the worst of them all. I won't go into much detail about it since everyone else already has.I'll give a short plot for you: Mr.Freeze wants to get billions of dollars to heal his wife while Poison Ivy wants to save the plants and Bane is...I don't know. And it introduces Batgirl. Sounds ok right? WRONG! George Clooney is not good at all as Batman,Robin is a whiny prick, Batgirl is irrelevant,Mr Freeze is stupid,Poison Ivy's actor can't act and Bane is just a guy on steroids. Let's just say you can enjoy it if you view it as a parody. I know this post feels rushed and short. Its because I feel kinda sad for the death's of these people :http://www.eonline.com/news/331806/the-dark-knight-rises-horror-gunman-kills-12-injures-50-at-colarado-screening and keep thinking of their deaths when I talk about Batman(don't worry though I'm still a huge fan of him) I'm posting it here to honour them...I mean people who would go to midnight screenings must be pretty big fans to wait so long and then suddenly they got shot,that's not fair. OK guys so thanks for your continued support,hope you'll comment on where I can improve and look forward to my next review!
