Summer 1997… It’s Time… To Hit the Ice!
I wasn’t even trying to emulate the resonant beats of the new Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 Teaser… Joel Schumacher’s Batman & Robin (1997) genuinely contains such weight. Odd, considering this is the same movie where a Bat Credit-Card shows up! George Clooney and Michael Gough’s scenes as Bruce Wayne and Alfred Pennyworth always stood out to me, since I was a boy even. Little kids are very sensitive to such things. I kind of couldn’t distinguish the difference between this or the Burton films then, and always viewed Batman & Robin as the grand finale to that same… Timeline. I mean, it has three villains. The Bat-Signal gets dismantled by Bane. Really iconic imagery despite the ludicrous narrative. The conversation Bruce has with Alfred about the meaning of Batman, which Alfred surmises as “an effort to control death itself” is really introspective and potent. “But I can’t can I?” Bruce asks. “None of us can” concedes Alfred. Really cool stuff. I mashed it with ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’, because that film also seems intent on concluding its respective franchise as boisterously as possible.
