A BATMAN CREDIT CARD?!?! Reacting to "Batman and Robin" - Nostalgia Critic

[@peair2000]

Fun facts about this movie: -The director, Joel Schumacher, made an apology for making the movie on the DVD commentary. "It was like I murdered a baby" -George Clooney apologized for playing Batman multiple times since the movie was released, and once said "I think we might've killed the franchise" -This movie was nominated for almost every Razzie award that year (award for terrible movies), and even won a Razzie for "Worst Supporting Actress", which was Alicia Silverstone as Batgirl. -Kevin Feige, the president of Marvel Studios, called this movie "so bad that it demanded a new way of doing things", and he was right because after this movie, the "Holy Trinity" of comic book movies were released: Blade, X-Men, and Spiderman. The age of Superman and Batman were over, and Marvel basically took over ever since.

"The age of Superman and Batman were over, and Marvel basically took over ever since." At least till the Dark Knight came out in 2008 and steamrolled every Marvel movie that came out that year.

@@thehonestreviewer7754 You say that like it was on a consistent basis. They had that and didn't have shit until damn near a decade later and even then, the only real prosperous and critically acclaimed ones were Wonder Woman and Aquaman. Marvel, on the other hand, has been on a consistent streak for over a decade. So yeah, Marvel took the ball and ran with it. No turnovers, a couple of fumbles bit no turnovers. So that's Superman Returns (Personally, I love that movie.) Batman Forever Batman and Robin Man of Steel Batman vs Superman Justice League All were critical failures in some way.

@@RedHood410 "You say that like it was on a consistent basis." Seriously dude? I give one example of Batman stomping over Marvel and you're acting like I'm saying DC overcomes Marvel all the time? Fine, I'll give validation to this comment. Dark Knight Rises, BVS, Joker, and The Batman were all consistent at passing the top ten at the Box Office proving the cape crusader still has staying power in theaters. In fact, The Batman overcame Thor 4 at the Box Office despite the latter coming out during the summer movie season. Pair that with how much influence Batman films have had over comic-book movies in general, and I'd say the age of Batman is not even close to being over.

Well, good thing NC released that Batman movies compilation video recently.

[@thehonestreviewer7754]

Yes the one Batman movie so bad that even the people involved, including director the late Joel Schumacher, admitted it was bad. Side note, I always feel bad for Schumacher regarding this film. He's made good movies, and from what I heard was a nice guy, but this production did him no favors. WB made him spearhead this movie immediately after the commercial success previous movie, Batman Forever, and told him to fast-track production so it would release a mere two years later. This means he had to get the movie written, casted, re-casted because the previous Batman Val Kilmer left and was also difficult on set, filmed, and edited all within one year. If that wasn't bad enough, toy companies were also involved with the production design in order to make it more 'toyetic' and therefore marketable for toy commercials. With all these factors, can we really be surprised that it's as bad as it is? Hell, I'm surprised the movie was even finished. Lastly as to answer your question about live-action Batman actors in movies we have... -Adam West: Batman the movie (1966) -Michael Keaton: Batman (1989) and Batman Return (1992) -Val Kilmer: Batman Forever (1995) -George Clooney: Batman & Robin (1997) -Christian Bale: Batman Begins (2005) The Dark Knight (2008) The Dark Knight Rises (2012) -Ben Affleck: Batman v Superman (2016) Suicide Squad (2016) both Justice League (2017) and JL Snyder Cut (2021) and Robert Pattinson: The Batman (2022)

I’d say what ticked me off most about this movie is that they had the freaking balls to make Bane, one of Batman’s most dangerous foes look like a buffed up joke. In the animated series and comics he was deadly and even pretty darn smart. He’s the one who broke Batman’s back so to go from that to THIS is insulting.

Honestly that was quite the overreaction to the bat credit card. It does seem like something he would logically have in case he needed money in the field. I'm he did some leg work to prevent it from being traced to him. I'm reminded of the time he bought coffee in the Justice League cartoon, though he paid cash for that. I can't think of a reason for the bat nipples though. There was a lot of stuff to question about this film, but I don't think the card was one of them.

[@MariuigiKhed]

It's not THAT painful... but... I'd be lying by saying "this didn't killed the Batman Burton/Schumacher-verse". It's a pity, the fifth one had potential. I'd wish some horrible movie would get a revival sequel just to see stuff like Batman Unchained or the Super Mario Bros. 2 live action movie.

[@Wolvesbane39]

There is not an animated Marry Poppins movie, that is an animated section IN Marry Poppins.

[@Shadowpack95]

Batman and Robin won awards for Worst Supporting Actress-Alicia Silverstone, twice. Worst Picture, Worst Screenplay, and Worst Director-Joel Schumacher.

[@Narutonarutonaruto85]

No, they didn't get a sequel from this, even if they wanted to set it up for one. While it did technically make money, it fell short of double the budget, which a film needs to be considered successful. The three films before it made over triple. It pretty much killed the Burton/Schumacher series and we didn't get another live action Batman film until the Nolan trilogy eight years later, which wasn't as big of a gap as I thought. For the most part Adam West was the only one to portray Batman in a live action TV series. That said other actors played in here and there in other DC live action shows, such as bits and pieces in the Batwoman TV series, but we didn't get a good look at him until Batwoman when to an alternate universe to find a version of him played by the late great Kevin Conroy. It looks like he appeared in Titans, but I never saw that. Generally speaking live action TV shows avoid showing Batman. In Smallville they gave jobs normally done by Batman to Green Arrow, another wealthy vigilante with a host of gadgets. Kevin Conroy is the actor who died recently. He has played Batman more times than any other actor, albeit in animation and video games until the Batwoman episode I mentioned above. I will miss him.

[@Kaempfdog]

XD I saw this movie a LONG time ago. I will not again. I was fine, but my dad was sighing the whole time. I know as the undying nerd I am now, I’ll probably feel EXACTLY like Nostalgia Critic does.

The last time The Bat-Credit Card was brought up was in the Christmas with the Kranks review which you have reviewed.

[@jayburn00]

The batman comics date back to early 1939. Many major comic book heroes that you know of originated from this time period. Captain America, Superman, batman, etc. and yes, all of them fought the Nazis around that time except maybe Batman (not sure if batman fought the Nazis in comics published during WW2). Most of the characters in the Avengers were created around 1962-1968 though.

Hmm, since we tend to BS a bit, figured I'd share this fun fact with you Duck... When this movie was in theaters, they had a tie-in promotion with Amoco gas stations and Maglite where so many fill-ups of premium fuel would let you redeem a coupon for a Batman Maglite set. After the promotion, the signs they had up for it were typically dumpstered, as they had been sitting outside atop the pumps for weeks. Well, where I lived, we were having mild weather and the signs were in pretty good condition still - we were at the station when they were taking them down and 12-year old me asked if I could keep them. Still have them, they're rare as hell, it's justa shame the movie sucked! Oh, and to answer your question about how long Batman has been around - 1939, Detective Comics #27. Also, you hurt my soul by saying you think of Ben Affleck when you think of Batman...

[@JGM154]

20:37, My good man, you'll be relieved to know that "Batman & Robin" did indeed lose money for the studio and Doug's statement about the film being a big Bat-Bomb was entirely correct. A $238 million box office gross against a $125 million production budget might seem okay at first glance, but we need to understand these numbers a bit better: First, roughly half of that cash earned does not go to the studio. It goes to the movie theaters that are commissioned to house the movie on the studio's behalf. Movie theaters need to make a profit too. Already, that leaves the gross money for "Batman & Robin" down to $114 million, which already means it failed to recuperate its production costs. This is why it is generally accepted that a movie needs to make back at least twice its budget in order to break even for the studio. But then there's the second thing to remember: the production budget numbers do not include the amount of money the studio paid to market and advertise the movie. The marketing budgets for most movies are not that well-documented, but we DO know the one for "Batman & Robin." Warner Bros. spent $125 million more to advertise that movie, as it was intended as a mass summer blockbuster. So, in the most conservative estimate for how bad this movie failed, we are looking at a net loss of at least $136 million for Warner Bros. Pictures. A Bat-Bomb indeed!

[@josephjackson4312]

1997 was truly the worst year for comic book movies considering that not only did B&R flop at the box office but Spawn suffered the same fate. No offense to Schumacher but this is his worst movie ever. I’d say that his best is Falling Down circa 1993 starring Michael Douglas (Wall Street, Basic Instinct, Fatal Attraction, and The Game).

‘Batman is rich. He is rich and has funnelled that money into his crime fighting enterprises through shell companies and false identities. And being someone who prepares for multiple eventualities, as demonstrated in both comics and TV, wherein he’s actually utilising his money to solve a situation, or bought something he wouldn’t normally carry with him, which would include say, diapers for a rescued baby, or coffee to keep himself awake, plus his tendencies to accessorise his crime fighting tools to fit his motif, from something understandable like a fearsome vehicle, to something silly like his projectiles resembling a bat, and the aforementioned shell companies to acquire items, what exactly is so ridiculous and anger inducing about a Bat Credit Card?!’ Linkara.

There is an explanation for the cure at the end. His wife had a more advanced version of the disease, and he managed to cure Alfred's version which is simpler, but not his wife's. Why he just carries two vials of that cure which is useless to him securely in his evil ice suit? Ehhhhhhhughhaaa dunno.

[@matalvis]

10:47 Consider the process, traceability, and stupidity of Batman carrying around a credit card. 1. Who's name is on the card? 2. Is this money coming out of Bruce's bank account? 3. Is Bruce leaching this money from his company? 4. Does Batman have a bank account? 5. Is Bruce transferring money to this superhero's bank account? 6. is this money traceable? 7. Can this card even legally be used if it has Batman's name on it? 8. Does the IRS know about this? The whole concept is just dumb. Batman in the animated series was fighting a guy who could enter his mind when he is asleep, so he drove up to a Starbucks at 3am to get a coffee since he had been awake for days while looking for this guy. He did not pay with a BAT CREDIT CARD, he paid with CASH. Sanitized, fingerprint scrubbed, not from his account bills. Not even 10s or 20s. Just 1s. That is how you keep a secret identity!

[@TresBS1]

17:29 Because the the cure Freeze made only works for the earlier stages of the disease, which Alfred is in. Freeze's wife has already progressed to the late stage.

I'LL KILL YOU! I'LL KILL YOU ALL!!!" while firing multiple rounds from his gun. And at comicon events, when someone mentions it, he screams "A BAT CREDIT CARD?!?!" and proceeds to chase them; pretending to beat the crap out of them if he catches them.

[@DraculaMarth]

Batman and Robin is the end result of overcorrection. After the 1989 Batman movie proved you could make a successful superhero movie that can appeal to older audiences, WB gave free reign to its director, Tim Burton to make a sequel. The end result, Batman Returns, was dark, gritty and esoteric to the point where parents didn't want to take their kids to see it even though WB was marketing it to all ages. So, they fired Burton, hired Joel Schumacher and had him direct Batman Forever. It was more kid-friendly and marketable, but it still had a little bit of edge and it was hugely successful, so they decided that Batman and Robin should be even more kid-friendly and marketable and sand off all the edge.

One thing I’ll say about this review is… NC back then was a lot more hostile than he is these days. Quite immature. The scene with Bruce and Alfred is where it comes through cause Alfred freaking raised Bruce, no wonder they love each other, they’re practically father and son and then Bruce finds out Alfred is dying? Yeah there’s gonna be some emotion there and it’s the best time to show it when you see a loved one go through the pain of dying by illness. I know I’m ranting but it kinda pissed me off to see Critic do that.

Everyone, we need to show him Nostalgia Critic's review of this... cinematic suicide *pulls out a briefcase, turns it around, unlocking and opening it, revealing Master of Disguise while organ music plays*

Another internet reviewer, Linkara, destroyed the "bat credit card" joke in his review of the comic version of the movie, NC appears for a brief moment and Linkara explains why it makes sense, basically it comes down to Bruce Wayne being insanely rich and having a credit card to a fake account for whenever he would have to use it as Batman (for example, one episode of an animated tv show he was fighting a villain that was trying to make him fall asleep to torture him in his dears, he stopped to buy a triple coffee) and not want it to be traced to his identity as Bruce Wayne. Actually, Linkara is a pretty funny reviewer, too, and while he mostly reviews of comic books he occasionally does movies, too, for example, he made reviews of both Man of Steel and Batman v Superman, same movie who's NC's review you've seen last time. Perhaps you could give Linkara's review a watch, too, he knows more about DC universe than Nostalgia Critic.

I know that it's quite a lot but please take your time and watch them. They are some of the best and most emotionally mature animated and super hero content of all time and after you have seen all of them and you will truly be a DC fan. There's more I can tell you with Marvel animation as well because the Marvel movies aren't exactly accurate nor do they represent Marvel comics exactly well.

O dont Forget all the 89 years of comics from action comic no1 and forward to the end of time he he he

[@Darkorinth1]

According to wikipedia Batman was created back in 1939. In the 60's there was an iconic and very campy tv show starring Adam West (he was on Family Guy as the mayor for several seasons),

What's funny I remember watching this movie on Cartoon Network and I remember all the puns "Alright everybody CHILL"

[@Chrome_The_Artist]

the cure Mr Freeze had was designed for an earlier stage of the disease then the one his wife had, that's why it worked on Alfred but not his wife. I'm a little surprised you know Mary Poppins lol, there isn't an animated mary poppins film, but there's a scene were the characters hop into an animated world through a drawing, cause she can do whatever she wants. oh, the NC isn't wearing a tie, that reminds me he actually doesn't know how to tie a tie, not even joking, there was a behind the scenes video a while ago with him and James Rolfe the AVGN, James had to take him step by step through how to tie it cause apparently Doug just uses the same pre-tied tie all the time, but it came undone by mistake.

[@Dim4323]

Also you never saw the other tim burton movies, you missing a real treat.

[@arlenfreeman3439]

You need to react to the Channel Awesome movies at some point; these are canon(channel continuity wise) film projects created by the content creaters of Channel Awesome themselves. In order, they are "Kickassia", "Suburban Knights" and "To Boldly Flee".

[@Crash__Down]

To be honest, a Bat credit card isn't even that bad of an idea. It'd be really stupid for Batman to use Bruce Wayne's credit card because they can easily trace who he is through purchases.

[@KenTheNoun]

To answer your question Batman was created in 1939.

React to nostalgia critic Fox kid

[@umbrella3235]

I actually unironically love this movie. Is it bad? Yes, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I love the cheese, the camp, and yes even the card.

[@jayburn00]

Ah, this one lol. When batman movies got really bad lol. Greetings from Puerto Rico by the way!

[@theduckgoesmoo]

Bruhhh I’m trying to go

[@ReiseLukas]

The crazy thing is when looking at Batman and Robin clips is that they're so bad they circle back to being good for me. Seriously, I don't know why but I feel like if I actually watched the movie I'd love it
