Batman Forever (1995) - “Living for the Batman” Series

How do you follow up a twisted, dark, and somewhat perverted Batman sequel (previous episode Batman Returns) which upset a lot of parents, angered a fast-food franchise, and freaked out a major studio?  

If you're Warner Bros., you take the character of Batman/Bruce Wayne….and cast 90's star Val Kilmer and hire Joel Schumacher to direct and cast the biggest stars at the time including Jim Carrey as The Riddler, Tommy Lee Jones as Two-Face, Nicole Kidman as Dr. Chase Meridian, and Chris O’Donnell as Robin……plus you add Day-Glo production design, buffoonery from some key cast members, and….Bat-nipples?  

As part of our ongoing "Living for the Batman" series, let’s examine how this movie holds up…..

Host: Geoff Gershon
Producer: Marlene Gershon
