Default Batman & Robin is an amazing Demo film

Now what is a demo film you may ask?

It's the kind of film that you use to show off your new TV or tech.

For a 35mm film, Batman & Robin is gorgeous, especially with all the neon lights, the 4k transfer is near perfect.

I'm not sure about the audio (since i only use built in speakers, i know i'm a horrible person ) but i can't think of anything better than that movie for the visual quality of 4K.

What do you guys think?

Batman & Robin is a great film and people who can't appreciate it should be put down.

Yeah, no, there's a reason Batman was put on cinematic ice for 8 years and why Batman Begins underperformed at the box office after B&R came out.

Because nothing could top Batman & Robin, and as you said Begins underperformed as proof that it was inferior word of mouth dropped it harder than I dropped 5th period P.E.

If I remember right, Batman Begins did well it's 2nd weekend. Movies only do just as good if not better on their 2nd weekend at the box office from good word of mouth. People were in fact hesitant to see it opening weekend due to the bad taste in their mouth from B&R.

Nolan’s Batman films are all pointless nonsense.

So Batman Begins underperforming at the BO is the fault of other movies released years before?

Now I know why Clueless was brought up in this thread.

Batman & Robin is an amazing film, period. Along with Batman Forever, Batman Returns and of course, Batman 89.

And I cannot begin to describe how amazing it is to be getting Keaton's Batman back in The Flash.

The soundtracks, costumes, set pieces and cinematographies of those Batman films far outweigh and exceed the more realsitic attempts of Nolan.























They are the encapsulation of what artistry should strive to be.

Great direction top-to-bottom from Schumacher. I never get bored watching his Batman movies. He knew exactly what tone he wanted and directed the hell out of them.
