Batman Forever 4K UHD (1995)

Batman Forever 4K Blu-ray

While I'm definitely getting the first two, I might get this one too since it's a mostly fun cheesy flick for me, hopefully they'll put in some Atmos in it.

YES, it is happening!

This is my favorite Batman movie after Batman Begins. I don't know exactly why, but I have always loved this strange, campy movie.

And for completetion's sake, I'll probably get the other ones as well. Haven't seen those in ages, so perhaps revisiting them on UHD might make me appreciate them more.

I'm not making any apologies, I like this movie quite a bit.

[Sky_Captain]

I actually prefer this to Returns, in many ways.

[DVD Josh]

Val plays a good interpretation of Bruce, conflicted, somber, serious, I like the portrayal. The movie is a bit too campy for its own good but it enjoyable. I watched it the other day in fact.

[levcore]

My favourite Batman movie from the 80's/ 90's run. Also you can't beat Hold me, Thrill me, Kiss me, Kill me and Kiss From a Rose. Also Nicole Kidman has NEVER looked more beautiful than in this movie.

Riddler (Jim Carrey) is one of my favorite villains. He was spectacular.

Batman - definitely
Batman Returns - more than likely
Batman Forever - of course
Batman and Robin - why not!

All of these with HDR (from the darks in 1 and 2) to the brights (in 3 and especially 4) could be some showcase material!

I'm surprised to see you two actually like this movie! I would have expected you to hate this like M: I 2, MiB II etc.

I do too. I always went easy on Forever because I'd read the novelization before the movie came out and I was able to fill in all the gaps that the hatchet job in the editing room did to that flick. They completely botched the subplot with Bruce feeling guilt over his parents' deaths. Thankfully Nolan handled that perfectly in Batman Begins.

This is the only one I've never seen. Batman & Robin was on TV when I was a kid and I remember nothing of it, and I only ever bought Batman and Returns on Blu.

Had it queued up on Netflix but they deleted it before I could watch it.

This was actually my first Batman movie, but I've never owned it and haven't seen it probably since before Batman Begins came out. Might pick this up down the road on sale, but more likely I'll find a cheap Blu-ray copy and that'll be enough for me.

Kiss from a Rose is still fire, btw. Love that song.

[ROSS.T.G.]

I can’t hear Kiss from a Rose without thinking of the last Vacation movie.

I've never seen this but I didn't need to since I watched the Seal music video about 3,000 times in junior high.

I was a sophomore in HS. Awwww, good times man. Good times.

[OutOfBoose]

B&R is too much for my tastes (or lack of), but I really like Forever.

Carrey as Riddler + Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me = my childhood.

No apologies either here. Much liked.

For me Kilmer is a great Batman, but especially a perfect Bruce Wayne. And the tone around the parents' death nightmares, flashback (whatever) was really great but I also agree with that one person feeling that Nolan/Goyer were able to distill it into a better package.

Granted they also weren't hamstrung trying to market specifically to kids for toy revenue. Wanna say it's a shame but the one-two punch of Forever and Robin failing was the catalyst for the best two batman movies ever. So, all good.
