Batman Returns (SNES) Mike & Ryan

[@chriscalvert4609]

How did you get penguin and the joker to sit beside each other?

[@Jared_Wignall]

They both work for Batman.

[@jemiahdapap8053]

Oh i thought it was Condiment King and Pencil Man!

[@brandon1469]

HAH

[@frozenaorta]

SavedByTheBellend He's married... So...

[@demanso1]

Chris Calvert um super glue their assholes together?

[@keithharrows683]

I vote for Ryan to cosplay as the Penguin, but with his normal attitude.

[@jamiegwhite30]

lol, ryan is penguin, who's mike?

[@keithharrows683]

Jamie White Good question, bud. I kinda see him as the Riddler.

[@akamk18]

LMAO

[@noyerr0l3]

I liked Michael Keaton as Batman. At least he didn't sound like he was gargling gravel when he spoke

[@jointhe6461]

Not being able to turn his neck actually gives batman more of a menacing presence. It's similar to Darth Vader, who you never imagine as being very athletic or nimble; he generally just walks forward slowly hurling aside oncomers.

[@MrBytorr]

This game helps me fulfill my dream of beating up juggalos.

[@porkchopexpress84]

MrBytorr ha!

[@lunarvania8073]

Hahaha Juggalos....oh man dont get me started haha

[@racerxgundam]

one of the best beat em ups for consoles at that time. Easily the best game licensed to the batman returns film....and one of the better licensed games i've played overall. A gem of a game that doesnt get the love it deserves on the snes.

[@Lilbroda]

lol

[@doublep1980]

This was made by the same guys,who did the ''Final Fight'' games for Capcom and you can tell.

[@WorldwideWyatt]

doubleP wasn't this made by Konami?

[@Nobunaga1983]

racerxgundam pretty pathetic is this was snes's best beat em ups

[@linkeffect82]

I had a hell of a time with it as a kid myself. The side scrolling sections take a little getting used to, but they and the driving section are pretty good changes of pace and the main beatemup sections are fun. I developed a simple combo to dole out maximum damage, and I've tried applying that formula to any beatemup I would play thereafter.

[@MISTAWULFY]

I love Batman Returns...both the movie and the SNES game. Actually it may be my favorite superhero movie of all time

[@whitejayz4655]

Never have I ever thought that a bunch of pixels were hot until Catwoman in this game.

[@LinkAranGalacticHero]

George Brady Ikr! then what about the dark queen from battletoads (both NES and SNES games)?

[@GatchamanG4]

I remember playing this over and over. Still a really fun game.

[@GatchamanG4]

What the sound effects when you throw Baddies into glass or wall. Makes that crunching sound.

[@__aceofspades]

Jinpei The Swallow yeah, as a kid it was a game I loved but struggled with a lot. you can tell they are using codes or something because there is no way they beat the game with the way they were playing.

[@frishdawgz]

ac3ofspades878 live totals climb at random and they haven't used a single test tube to this point nt

[@segamasterchilders5055]

This is the second time 2 people played this together on cinemassecre

[@T1J]

this is one of my favorite games ever

[@jaygooese4242]

This is my favorite to you know I only played half of it also I'm going to be 30

[@JadeStDenis-ql8fq]

None of the negative comments matter. Ryan, you're a lucky dude to get to play rad videogames with Mike & James. So cool. Really enjoy all the AVGN/Cinemassacre videos.

[@philomongo2939]

This game was the cornerstone of so many memories for me as a small child.

[@kasinalpha]

When Andy Serkis was finally able to play Smegal in Return of the King, no one was bitching, he did so much work, it was epic to see him finally get to act...though it was corny, I respected it and many others did. So Mike and Ryan get to play games...I really hate seeing so much hate for the guys who worked behind the scenes enjoying a side project that doesn't belittle the normal AVGN episodes.

[@budakhan79]

Hold up and then the attack button when you're holding them. You can throw them into the background elements. God I still remember this game.

[@dallasb1105]

I love the Mike & Ryan videos! I look forward to these every week. Thanks guys!

[@adampoole948]

Batman Returns is probably my favorite Tim Burton movie next to Nightmare Before Christmas

[@TheTropicotonic13]

The Batman/Mario game would be nothing but "Its a me, MARIO!" "I'm Batman" for 4 hours!

[@ezcompane]

This game is so much fun. Easily one of my favorite beat 'em ups and most playable games that I have on the SNES.

[@DAVO360]

Awesome you guys did a batman game! Can you guys please do Adventures of Batman and Robin on Genesis lol

[@jasoncrews2]

That game is hard but fun as hell!!!

[@supergeoff]

I played it was awesome but hard as hell

[@TStef64]

That game is fantastic, one of the most underrated games for the Megadrive/Genesis. It isn't that hard when you figure out you can upgrade your weapons though lol. Also features awesome music by Jesper Kyd, so awesome that i will be willing to say it is the best soundtrack on the console(yes, even better than SOR music imo).

[@supergeoff]

yep, It's one best Batman game out there with the best soundtrack tight button controls too.

[@girlsdrinkfeck]

megadrive *

[@GenerationX1984]

I grew up with Batman: The Animated Series and that was the best Batman cartoon ever made.

[@quibquatch3975]

Please play Batman Forever, so I can see what true rage really looks like.

[@bobafett407]

The comic story arcs at the time the movie was made were basically "Please don't let us go bankrupt. We just want to keep the the heat on."

[@koenvandamme6901]

I agree, 60's Batman is great fun to watch.

[@HaveYouTriedGuillotines]

I dunno if Ryan or Mike will actually see this, but... If one were to make a real life batsuit that was able to actually protect the wearer while being flexible, it would likely use some kind of kevlar (or other body armor) mesh around the neck, as well as the hips and joints. Think of how medieval plate chainmail combination armor works, where hard plates protect the chest and other vital areas, but a metal mesh is used where the wearer needs to be flexible. Someone like Bruce would have access to the most cutting edge of body armor, so he could easily produce himself a good looking set of armor made out of flexible and protective materials.

[@Vs2nice]

Now that I'm watching this video, I'm realizing that Ryan has eerily similar looks to Danny DeVito's "Penguin" character...

[@ZacharyShade]

Tim Burton's 2 Batman movies are the best by far. They're the perfect mix of cartoony and silly (which superheroes are by nature) and serious. All the other Batman movies are too over the top (Bat-credit card) or try way to hard to be serious (Nolan ones) which take me out of it because goofy shit is happening that's not serious. Tim Burton found a great balance.

[@skabcat242]

I loved playing this game.

[@ElyGalvin]

Batman Returns has always been my favorite of the Batman movies

[@BlackArroToons]

Batman Returns; a fun looking beat 'em up game. Wish they could reissue it for modern consoles in a Batman collection of classic and older Batman games.

[@kingkold]

Problem with Tim Burton is he only works with Johnny depp as head lead actor. He doesn't seem to challenge himself in that regard

[@upyoursenator]

kingkold Big Fish was pretty good.

[@ZacharyShade]

Besides Beeteljuice, Batman, Batman Returns, Mars Attacks!, Ed Wood, Big Fish, Pee-wee's Big Adventure, Frankenweenie, and Planet of the Apes you're right. I'm not saying those are all good movies, but it's a bit unfair to say he only works with Depp even though they have had about a dozen movies together.

[@willzyx23]

Zachary Shade Johnnny Depp is in Ed Wood though. I mean, he IS Ed Wood

[@ZacharyShade]

Oops, got carried away listing movies, forgot he was in that one haha. My point still remains.

[@SinSokolov]

The problem with Tim Burton is he hasn't had an original thought in about 10 years

[@dtadeo2006]

I can't believe neither of you played this when it came out. This is one of the BEST SNES games ever. I played this to DEATH along with Contra 3!

[@jeremoose2000]

*laughing* "Y'know? Right?!.. Like..." Love Ryan.

[@dan_evilrobot]

Batman Returns is my favorite movie as a kid and I like The Penguin and Catwoman I don't understand why people hate this movie?

[@oasisbeyond]

Tim Burton's Batman was actually very dark for it's time. But, it was still stylish and fun for most of the time.

[@ChannelVideoYoutube]

mike and Ryan are so entertaining to play the classics. keep it up guys

[@Randomark3087]

This was a great game, and the music was awesome!

[@jaygooese4242]

The boss theme musics game is still great

[@sammylane21]

A million Batman games and zero SUPER FRIENDS games,what a crime!

[@yellowflash0043]

Mike and Ryan, thanks for doing a playthrough for this game homies

[@zrj-ro6304]

Say what you will about the DC Extended Universe but the Batsuit LOOKS like the best live action onscreen suit.

[@TheJamesShow00]

Loved this game as a kid. Great vid! Use the test tubes on the driving bosses :P

[@T1mT1msen]

Take a shot whenever Mike says "Y'know". Enjoy your hangover.

[@renzorro2001]

I think the neck not turning just makes him more badass! There are so many moments when a guy jumps at his side and he just punches them without even looking! How cool is that?!

[@MegaMattX86]

I think it made Batman way more badass when he could beat down a group of thugs without turning his head

[@graciegj63]

If Batman went back to using a gun, he wouldn't have a rogues gallery.

[@2001mark]

Surely one of my fav blind buys ever. Great graphics, fantastic sounds & music, nice difficulty.

[@Harri927]

Love this Batman game, I play this game every time, It's another movie based game done right.

[@Vs2nice]

Would love to see you guys play Kid Chameleon, haven't seen or played that game since my childhood. Such a classic!!

[@pagb666]

Might look for a copy, looks like a decent beat em up

[@righthandofsatan9668]

take a shot of whiskey everytime mike says "ya know" bet you can't last the whole video

[@thetsar7384]

I'm a man in my 30s who watches other men in their 30s play video games on the internet.

[@KentPittsburgh]

This game isn't clowning around.

[@Iroquois2688]

Forgive my ignorance, but what's Ryan's role in Cinemaassacre again? Is he one of the crew behind AVGN?

[@JamesNintendoNerd]

Ryan has been with Cinemassacre since 2008. He designed our website and helps us sell merch like our DVDs and Blu-Rays. A few years back I asked him to start doing videos with me for the channel. Thanks for watching - Mike

[@dtadeo2006]

Cool, never knew that! Anyway I like his style of review, very insightful and geeky. Ryan should pair up with James sometime!

[@graalcloud]

Ryan is your father

[@DrynSarcastic360]

He's the webmaster of the cinemassacre website. There's actually a video about their server

[@Iroquois2688]

Wing Zero Straight Edge You need a hug.

[@tripppro6940]

I Remember renting this as a kid and loving it.

[@Nickoji]

All this pointless Ryan hate from everybody is making me like him even more. 😇 Go Ryan!

[@regpett3730]

[@oasisbeyond]

Batman nes, batman adventure's of batman and robin and batman arkham asylum = best Batman games

[@DokkaChapman]

Did you know that in the 90's Tim Burton was on for making a Goosebumps movie? Can you imagine how amazing that would have looked?! Hell he might even have been on a different path had he not done Planet of the Apes.

[@eddierobinson118]

batman returns oh my i love this game

[@VadelGame]

This is the best Batman for SNES!

[@DerFanboy]

Love this Game. This is my childhood Game and I still like to play it

[@iggyeo6458]

i just wanna point out something that I always noticed while playing, some of the music in the game is VERY similar to the Nightmare before Christmas, especially thr opening stages

[@evilwesker313]

still one of my favourite Snes Games

[@thehoosierfortheUK]

Batman Returns for snes was awesome!

[@neonnwave1]

Didn't James and Doug do this game already?

[@Hurricanelive]

Keaton Bats is the only ONLY Golden Age fucking god damn Batman that murders EVERYBODY! EVERBODY! Keaton IS the god damn Rocksteady Batman, breaking every fucking bone of bad guys and ending their criminal careers. HE FUCKING KILLS EVERYONE! Plus he's the best fucking Bruce Wayne.

[@StusGameReviews]

The tone of the Tim Burton films was influenced by Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns" and "Batman: Year One" (1986 and 1987 respectively) which basically completely changed the direction of Batman's portrayal in the comics.

[@sammylane21]

As much as I love the SUNSOFT BATMAN game,they made The Joker like 9 ft taller than Batman.

[@Weezing336]

This was one of my favorite games

[@RetroChaoz]

The Batman in Scooby-doo was Neil Adams's one.

[@nrrork]

You've got it backwards. Batman: The Animated Series was heavily influenced by THESE movies. But they went a really cool new way with it by having that retro, art deco look going on. I fucking LOVE the art style in that show.

[@GuyFromAndromeda]

Haven't thought about Tim Burton's Batman not turning his head. Didn't make the connection when they joked about it in Dark Knight. But now I won't be able to unsee it. :P

[@SeanyCay49Gaming]

you guys need to play adventures of batman and Robin on SNES!

[@hneugiii1245]

thumbs up just for the line "in movies I'm just thinking, I don't have to wear it"

[@lieutenantyoshi5704]

Tim burton film anatomy: Dark, Macabre, Innocent and Childlike all twistedly assimilated together like The Thing.

[@Warworm-dd7dp]

please more mike and Ryan!!!!!!

[@goku48071]

The main villain was Max Shreck

[@Govi627]

You should really be playing the masterpiece of "Batman Forever:

[@WaffleCore87]

I loved this game on the NES...

[@skullface2694]

yall should have dressed as penguin and riddler for this video....

[@Dakid015]

Good playthrough! I agree with alot of your commentary too!

[@Conradcarbet]

I loved this game. thank you.

[@asher666]

One of my all time favourite SNES games ever; forever ever ^_^ Good choice guys

[@GreyHulk2156]

If this was released now you would be able to download DLC to play as Max Shreck.

[@itchyisvegeta]

LOVE this game. Before there was Arkham Asylum, there was this game.

[@The_Cold_Slither]

Well by the time Batman Returns, and even Batman in 1989, the comics had already gotten past the Adam West era. I'll say since mid 1969. In cartoons it was a different story, but in the late 60's into the 70's, that's where comics started getting grittier again. I believe Ra's Al Ghul was introduced in 1970 or 71. This was around the time where a lot of Batman's villains stopped just being colorful villains. There's some good stuff from that time, and the art was awesome. You should check some of it out. Especially The Joker's Five Way Revenge.

[@touriian8371]

I really loved Batman forever even though it was impossible to learn how to play and use the utilities on your own.

[@StarDragonJP]

You guys should play Seperation Anxiety, that Spiderman & Venom beat em up

[@JediAcolyte94]

+Cinemassacre Can you do one of these videos for Indiana Jones Greatest Adventures for the SNES?

[@newwavejunkie]

JediAcolyte22 That's one of my fave SNES games. I'd play that for hours.

[@bluemetal04606]

My favorite batman game lol

[@shanetheclassic]

idk why they laughed at the pixel versions of the characters they looked really good for SNES

[@WalkOnNick]

24:30 When Batman came, the laughs died.

[@Ramjet164]

If this game was 2 player it would of got a lot more recognition. As good as this game is, a 1 player beat em up is a sin!

[@huff99]

You guys need to play The Death and Return of Superman

[@Termie09]

I don't even care about the let's play. I just have grown to like hearing you dudes talk about stuff. this was a really good talk

[@adolforodriguez7185]

Did you ever review ULTRA VORTEX from the ATARI JAGUAR?

[@diegowushu]

Man, I was so jelly when I saw the reviews of this one in magazines, when all I had was a lousy NES. Thank god for emulation lol.
