Was it that bad? I havenāt seen it since I was kid but isnāt it just like the Adam West Batman (ie. the definitive version of that character which was never in history matched for quality or faithfulness to the source material).

Whatās your point
Falling Down is decent. Quite want to rewatch the Schumacher Batmans as well for old timeās sake, barely seen any of these films tbf
only seen about 8 of these
Id say he is good at making bad but entertaining films - 8mm and the number 23 are incredibly terrible though
not one of the greats, I donāt think it would be a great shame if all his films were forever erased or never existed. plus points for lost boys and falling down and making very stupid batman films which lots of people hate, minus points for being shit
AND MUSCLE MAN PLAYING SAX. +1000,000 points
looking at the best film poll on the last one, I was surprised how many of ridleyās films were bad / didnāt exist. with this one, itās the opposite, heās made more watchable films than I assumed. what does this mean? we may never know

Hey, plenty of people love Batman Forever.
I donāt hate the 60s Batman with Adam West either.
I think for me campy fun Batman is cool and graphic novel Batman is cool (I donāt think Burton or even Nolanās are excessively adult/serious/real world TBH - lots of intentionally comic book stuff in them itās just toned down), but Schumacher wanted to try to bring campy Batman into Burtonās version and it ends up being a mess with villains too nasty for kids but the script just moronic.
As @zxcvbnm2 correctly states, I did mean Batman: The Animated Series which was top stuff, but still was aimed at kids (much like Adam West Batman). Shortly before I saw Batman Forever they had a two-parter with the origin of Two Face and itās really great, strong characters.
And then you watch Batman Forever and thereās Tommy Lee Jones who I donāt know ever actually says an intelligible sentence and they just decide that his actual thing or flipping a coin to decide if he should be good or bad is too boring. Nah, he just flips his coin over and over until he gets the bad side so he can be badā¦so, er, One Face, then? Batman Forever treats the audience with disdain, like, āOh you like comic book films do ya? Well here ya go, ya brain dead moron! Iāve put as much effort in as your sort deserves!ā
the lost boys - 5/5
falling down - 5/5
he made loads of pish but gets a pass for those two films.
not seen most of those. no desire to either.
