REVIEW: BATMAN VS. TWO-FACE
The Adam West Batman series ranks among my favorite Batman outings. I understand why many people prefer the more serious takes on Bruce Wayne, but I’ve always loved the fun rock’em sock’em good time of Batman ’66. When DC announced the animated revival, I was pumped. And that film was plenty amazing. But then they had to go and announce a sequel. And not just any sequel, but a sequel with WILLIAM FREAKIN’ SHATNER as Harvey Dent/Two-Face. Heck YEAH I was pumped for that. And guess what: the movie delivers. Adam West’s final appearance excels as a statement of what it means to be a hero and a swan song…

Review: BATMAN FOREVER Soundtrack
Some record executive at Warner Bros. must have finished off the last of the cocaine from the eighties that was in the office while he was coming up with the concept for this album. The Batman Forever (1995) soundtrack is a unique time capsule into how corporate conglomerates used their film and music subsidiaries to promote each other during the nineties. This record should’ve been an absolute disaster, but by some miracle it doesn’t wind up being half bad. The soundtrack sold almost as many copies as Prince’s Batman (1989) soundtrack. That’s largely due to the fact the artists featured on this album were at the top of…

Review: BATMAN & ROBIN
There aren’t many people out there that genuinely think Batman & Robin is a good movie. There are, however, a lot of people that find it so bad that it’s good. I’m one of those people. This movie sucks. It wants to be a cool Batman movie, but it instead is an unintentional comedy complete with laughable character portrayals and cringe-worthy one-liners. Our story finds Batman (George Clooney) and his sidekick Robin (Chris O’Donnell) taking on Mr. Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger), Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman), and Bane (Jeep Swenson) as Mr. Freeze attempts to freeze over Gotham City. In the opening scene, our titular heroes suit up. Director Joel Schumacher takes the…
