Batman and Robin
Principal cast: George Clooney, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Chris O'Donnell, Alicia Silverstone and Uma Thurman.
The Gist: The 4th installment in the pre-Chris Nolan Batman series and the most puntastic disaster of them all, complete with Bat nipples and Batman AmEx cards.
Year: 1997
Who's Responsible: Joel Shumacher
MPAA Rating: PG-13
Content: Mild action violence and tons of punny sexual innuendo
Run time: 2 hours and 10 minutes of misery
Suggested drinking game: Drink every time 1. anyone uses a pun or one-liner 2. there is a close-up of butts or nipples 3. Batman and Robin argue 4. Poison Ivy does something seductive 5. Batgirl does something she's not supposed to 6. Mr. Freeze freezes someone (the puns alone will have you reeling pretty fast)
Suggested drink/snack: Freeze Pops
Why you should watch it: It's so cheesy, you have to see it to believe it. Every pun and one-liner is stomach churningly bad to the point where it starts to make you laugh at them.
Why you might want to avoid it: You just watched Batman Begins or The Dark Knight and don't want to vomit watching what preceded them.
Overall Bad Movie Night rating: B+
This is a BAD movie, the worst in the history of comic book adaptations, perhaps. If lines from Arnold like "Ice to meet you!" and "Cool party" make you giggle due to their insulting nature to screenwriters, you'll love to laugh at it. If not, you should spend 2 hours chilling elsewhere - excuse that pun.
