While Arnold Schwarzenegger is currently taking his lumps for The Last Stand being a box office failure, let us not forget the worst film he ever participated in, 1997's Batman & Robin. I'm pretty sure Arnold isn't as ashamed of it as we would like to think, seeing as though he was paid a cool, $25 million. For that type of money I'd deliver silly Mr. Freeze puns all day long. Hopefully this makes you think twice before bitching and moaning about Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy.

I have nothing positive to say about this film and, therefore, in turn, this article.

"Have an Ice day!"

"Nightmare"? why? this was the greatest parody ever made. I would watch Arnie spit out those one-liners any time "Let's kick some ICE!" lmfao

Damn, that's so COLD!

I loved this film as a kid, part of the reason I became a Batman fan (I think I was 4 when it came out). It's painful to watch now though.
Jolt17 - 2/3/2013, 5:24 AM
There was a time when I preferred this over Tim Burton's Batman Returns, which I used to greatly despise. Childhood, you're doing it wrong.
Nerdman3000 - 2/3/2013, 5:48 AM
Lets kick some ICE!

TelaVizion: The Invincible Iron Man cover is a fan-made, though. There are numerous evidences, but it's already obvious through Tony's face - and the background - which is too cartoony in style.
TheIconicMan - 2/3/2013, 6:29 AM
@TelaVizion Wow! That's amazing. Seriously, amazing..
SpideyQuad - 2/3/2013, 7:05 AM
LOL, possibly the worst CBM ever
sameoldthing - 2/3/2013, 7:30 AM
It's a crap movie sure but it's pure camp..trying to capture the 60's tv show vibe.

Nolan films are the super serious / realistic version.

Next Bat-films need to directly adapt from the comics / cartoons & have the outlandish super powered villains such as Clayface & make Bats into a real "Dark Knight Detective".
TheDudeRises - 2/3/2013, 7:33 AM
As a ten year old, this movie was freakin badass. I saw that sh!t 3 or 4 times at the theatre. Fifteen years later, not so much. Although I do remember going to Taco Bell like everyday trying to score the Batman drink tabs. I was always a Batman or an Alfred short of winning the grand prize. What a gyp.
Jolt17 - 2/3/2013, 7:58 AM
Splenda: Ah, correct!

Relive The Nightmare
LMAO nice title
SudsMerrick - 2/3/2013, 8:26 AM
Anyone who thinks this takes the cake for worst Arnold movie needs to sit down and watch "Hercules In New York".
AmericanPsychoWolf - 2/3/2013, 8:50 AM
The movie that nearly buried the CBM genre. Fun to watch but a complete abomination of a movie.
fawfulmark2 - 2/3/2013, 9:06 AM
^ or Last Action Hero.

"What killed the dinosaurs...? The ICE AGE!"
FOOM - 2/3/2013, 9:44 AM
@AmericanPsycho

You said it man. And it probably was a factor in future Batman films going all pretentious and 'high brow' instead of just giving fans the real Batman from the comics. There is a pit in hell waiting for you Mr Schmacher.
robsncoppers - 2/3/2013, 9:49 AM
You guys need to stop hating. I thought the movie was cool.
Silentman - 2/3/2013, 9:52 AM
WHAT KILLED THE DINOSAURS?.....
rbfn04 - 2/3/2013, 9:56 AM
@TheYoungMan exactly. I loved this as a kid too.
cfoster060809 - 2/3/2013, 10:32 AM
agreed this movie is pretty bad, but Clooney was WAAAAAAY worse than Arnie in this. IMO Mr. Freeze is a great Batman and IF done correctly could be great on screen
storyteller - 2/3/2013, 10:53 AM
I liked Arnold's Freeze.
DrDoom - 2/3/2013, 10:58 AM

Best BATMAN movies villain!!
xXkryptoniteXx - 2/3/2013, 12:27 PM
What killed the dinosaurs?..... The ice age! Lmao
This is what not to do with a comic book movie. Campy.
I hope they consider doing a batman the dark knight returns with the creative mind of burton and micheal Keaton as an older batman. This way we can forget this movie.
THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - 2/3/2013, 12:35 PM
This movie was made to sell toys. And it worked well. I have a lot of Batman and Robin figures from when I was a kid.

@ DEATHbyEXILE

Um...Why is Bruce Campbell petting George Clooney?
KingEmperor - 2/3/2013, 1:15 PM
Mr. Freeze had a watch...?
bfprimetime - 2/3/2013, 1:57 PM
I used to go to Taco Bell all the time behind this movie,the good ol' days.
OptimisticPrime - 2/3/2013, 2:28 PM
Like the Adam West show and movie, still like every other Batman show and movie.
