After the release of Batman Returns, Warner Bros. was in something of a difficult position. While they wanted to wallpaper their holiday mansions with $100 bills and Batman was obviously the franchise to bet on, the extremely dark and depressing storyline of Batman Returns made it a harder sell to their intended audience, namely everybody in the world. It wasn't exactly a family movie. By now, they wanted something different for the next film, limiting Tim Burton to the role of producer and hiring Joel Schumacher to take over directing duties. And for good or for ill, 1995's Batman Forever, the third movie in the Batman Film Series, was certainly different.Bruce Wayne/Batman (Val Kilmer) battles Harvey Dent/Two-Face (Tommy Lee Jones), a struggle that gets tougher when Edward Nygma/The Riddler (Jim Carrey) enters the picture, as both have personal vendettas against the Caped Crusader and his secret identity, respectively. Bruce finds an ally in orphaned acrobat Dick Grayson (Chris O'Donnell), who discovers his secret and becomes Robin to take revenge against Two-Face, who killed his family. As a sub-plot, Bruce deals with a budding romance with psychologist Dr. Chase Meridian (Nicole Kidman), something that naturally causes some problems because of his double-life.Continued with Batman & Robin.

comment
Canon Foreigner: Chase Meridian was created for the film. Dick Grayson never had a brother (not that his brother lived very long in the movie). Sugar and Spice are more or less Two-Face's answer to Harley Quinn. They were later made Canon Immigrants in the Arkham City #1 comic (suggesting further use for the duo), though they don't appear in the game itself.

Age Lift
 Batman Forever / int_121b3725
comment
Age Lift: In the comics Dick Grayson was a pre-teen when his parents were killed, much like Bruce, and started his career as Robin soon after. Here Dick's age is left vague but implied he is or at least approaching college age. Batman: The Animated Series did something similar, except making him the same age as when his parents were killed but a college aged adult in the present stories (which, by that time, he had taken up the name Nightwing, see Composite Character).

Trailers Always Spoil: The music video for "Kiss From A Rose" by Seal shows the scene where Batman destroys The Box, where The Riddler is stockpiling people's brainwaves, and the video for "Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me" by U2 shows Batman saving a captive Robin from being dropped into the pit below the Riddler's island. In other words, the two videos combined showed the majority of the movie's climax.

Negated Moment of Awesome: In a deleted scene (retained in the novel), Riddler hacks into the Batmobile, causing Batman to crash headlong into a 'crime scene'...which turns out to be an all-night hair salon. Cue much chortling and sarcastic offers to "trim the ears" as he stomps off, furious.

Not-So-Harmless Villain
 Batman Forever / int_171ef47c
comment
Not-So-Harmless Villain: On the one hand, The Riddler is played by Jim Carrey at the height of his Large Ham comedy days, he looks ridiculous in the Riddler outfits, and he's just plain weird. On the other hand, he terminates his boss by letting him drop hundreds of feet into the ocean out of a glass window, founded and built a hugely successful company and made a fortune from it, became a super-intelligent genius with his invention and used it to discover Batman's true identity, invaded Bruce's mansion to blow up the Batcave and most of Bruce's equipment (including the Batmobile and his suits), and if not for his psychological need to have Bruce live so he could show him up, Nygma could have killed him outright. Within the four Burton/Schumacher films, Edward Nygma is the most dangerous enemy Batman ever faced. The only reason Batman and Robin even make it to his base is because he didn't anticipate Batman having a Batcave under the Batcave. Two-Face may have gone a bit overboard with the Giggling Villain riff, but he had Batman a thread away from death on at least two occasions: when he buried Batman alive with the cave-in caused by his grenade launcher, and during the invasion of Wayne Manor. In these instances, only the last minute intervention of another party saved The Dark Knight's bacon: Robin digging him out in the former, and The Riddler preventing Dent from finishing Bruce's off with a point-blank headshot in the latter.

Two-Person Love Triangle: Chase falls in love with both Bruce Wayne and Batman, and doesn't realize they're both the same guy until she's kidnapped.

Green-Eyed Monster: The Riddler, fittingly enough. At first, his fixation with his boss is simple hero worship, but it becomes a desire to Kill and Replace Bruce in Gotham's social circle after Bruce rejects his dangerous product idea. Even at his launch party, after Nygma sculpts his hair and dons a fake mole and identical suit to match Bruce Wayne's, the press still flocks around the Waynetech CEO. Edward is shown standing off the side, absolutely fuming.

Mythology Gag
 Batman Forever / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: There are a few of these regarding Robin. The "holey rusted metal" bit is a reference to the '60s show, and when pondering what his superhero alias should be, Dick Grayson considers "Nightwing." The Flying Graysons outfits are a combination of the original Robin costume and the one from Batman: The Animated Series (which was in turn based on Tim Drake's Robin costume in the comics). Finally, Bruce's suggested nickname for Dick was "Dick Grayson, College Student"; in the 70s comics, Dick did go to college. Also one to the greater DCU, when Bruce mentions the circus must be half way to Metropolis. Robin's conflict with Two-Face is a reference to Jason Todd, the second Robin in the Bat-comics, who was confronted with the same decision. Finally, the "R" logo on Robin's costume was taken from Tim Drake, the third Robin. One of the alter-egos Nygma came up with was "The Puzzler," who was a villain in the 1960s Batman series. The exterior shot of Nygma's apartment shows that it's located next to a sign advertising the Criss-Cross Cleaning Company. In his first comic appearance, the Riddler hijacks a similar sign to pose a riddle to Batman. The character of Dr. Burton was intended, visually and name-wise, to be a shout out to previous Batman director Tim Burton. The imagery of Thomas and Martha Wayne's deaths, as well as Bruce falling down a cave, was taken from Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and Batman: Year One (specifically, the cover to Batman Vol. 1 #404). The ending shot of Batman and Robin running towards the screen with the Batsignal shining behind them is a nod to the introduction of the 1966 TV series, with the difference is that the Batsignal didn't appear in the latter. The way Batman defeats Two-Face by tossing in a bunch of coins while he is flipping his own was how Batman defeated him (albeit non-lethally) on Batman: The Animated Series during their first encounter. The Riddler putting Robin and Chase in death traps is reminiscent of the many Cliffhangers from the Adam West series, which often had the heroes caught in some dangerous trap set by the villain of the week.

"Shut Up!" Gunshot: When they first meet, the Riddler spends several seconds praising Two-Face and his lair before getting into his proposed Villain Team-Up. Eventually, Two-Face fires a shot into the air next to his ear to get him to shut up and get to the point already.

Supervillain Lair: Two-Face's base is hidden in the fixtures of a bridge and is split down the middle between an art deco suite from the 1960s and some kind of S&M dungeon. Nygma, starting his criminal career from the ground up, gradually builds himself a throne room filled with all the question marks his heart desires.

Out of the Inferno: When Batman follows Two-Face below the streets of Gotham, he's trapped in a room with an exposed gas main, which Two-Face ignites with a rocket launcher. Before he's engulfed in flames, Batman hits a switch that makes his cape completely flame-retardant; Two-Face and his cronies begin to dance in glee over immolating Batman, until the latter emerges running out of the flames, completely pissed, to the former's shock.

Curiously, upon second viewing and looking closely behind Spice while Sugar displays her dinner, it looks as if Jim Carrey wasn't hidden well enough before his big Riddler debut as you can see a bit of green in the background. It's almost as if they did so intentionally so that Carrey would know when his cue was.

Robin's family tried to reach the bomb, but Two-Face killed Robin's parents and brother during the attempt.

Mad Scientist: The Riddler, in a change from his comic book origins, is a brilliant scientist who develops a machine—the Box—that transforms any television image into a three-dimensional example of virtual reality—and, quite by accident, pulls neural energy from anyone viewing the images and broadcasts it directly into his head, making him smarter and exposing all of their secrets to him. The "mad" part is hinted at throughout his introduction, and by the time that both Stickley and Bruce reject the Box, he's gone completely off the deep end.

Split Personality
 Batman Forever / int_370aad9
comment
Split Personality: One the film's major themes is the notion of duality, and it manifests in three of the major characters: The most obvious example is Harvey Dent/Two-Face, but it's a rather complicated case. In the comics and animated series, Harvey Dent does go insane, but it's clear that "Two-Face" is a title he has given himself rather than a separate individual. Here, though, Two-Face is an entirely separate personality from Dent, and the two apparently share a single body; Dent is the "good" side that looks mostly human, while Two-Face is the purple, acid-scarred, "bad" one. This is further emphasized by Dent/Two-Face consistently referring to himself with plural pronouns ("The Bat's stubborn refusal to expire...is DRIVING US INSANE!"), having Sugar and Spice prepare two separate dinners for him (one for each half), and, during the finale, leaping out of the shadows and introducing himself twice. Edward Nygma/The Riddler seems to be showing the symptoms as well (and, at the end of the movie, goes batshit insane, believing that he is the Batman). Bruce Wayne/Batman visits Dr. Chase Meridian, who discusses and lampshades the trope to him.

Not the Fall That Kills You…: When Batman dives into the death trap to save Chase and Robin. When Batman attaches the cords to Chase and when he grabs Robin, they can be seen decelerating, rather than coming to a complete stop, implying the cords are elastic. This is more noticeable when Batman rescues Robin.

Magical Security Cam: Bruce has archive footage of Chase doing a slo-mo Hair Flip. He has even more screens in Batman & Robin, prompting Bill Corbett to wonder how many security cameras Bruce Wayne has secretly installed around Gotham to get all this footage. Maroni's murder trial must have been an even bigger media circus than O.J. Simpson's. The cameras perfectly capture the acid attack, Batman's intervention, and even a close-up of Dent getting splattered in 800 ISO. (A similar narrative device would be used for Mr. Freeze's origin story in the following movie.)

Batman Gambit
 Batman Forever / int_38d02d44
comment
Batman Gambit: Lampshaded when Chase tells the Riddler that Batman will come to his base to rescue her. Nygma showed this during his expo for his Box device. Before dancing with Chase, Edward constantly tried to goad Bruce Wayne into trying out his new invention (which to him raised too many questions, if you recall). He fails spectacularly, but Bruce decides to check out the mechanics behind the images. When Bruce takes out the battery for the machine with Sugar's help (Sugar is Nygma's companion for the night), he walks into the room with a deactivated Box...until Sugar reveals that she had a spare battery on her, courtesy of Edward. Appropriately, the trope namer himself pulls one to beat Two-Face. Two-Face has Batman and his friends dead to rights, until Batman helpfully reminds him that he always flips his coin to decide if he's going to kill somebody...then, when Two-Face makes the flip, Batman pulls a handful of extra coins out and throws them into the air. Two-Face, panicking, tries to catch them all and falls to his death.

Actor Allusion
 Batman Forever / int_392372f9

Actor Allusion: Jim Carrey once performed a standup routine about impulses and how important it is to control them. In this film, the Riddler calls Two-Face out on having a serious impulse control problem. When Bruce insists Robin should be called "Dick Grayson, College Student." To which Dick replied "Screw you!" It's hard to blame Chris O'Donnell seeing how the last college he was in, involved nearly getting expelled and putting up with Al Pacino. After the Batcave is destroyed, Batman is left to choose between a boat and an aircraft to go after the Riddler. You just know Val Kilmer would pick the aircraft. The novelization gives Riddler one when you remember who plays him in the movie; during his triumphant raid on the Batcave, at one point he whispers, "Somebody, stop me!"

Broad Strokes
 Batman Forever / int_547196be
comment
Broad Strokes: The film's connection to the prior installments. Batman, the Batmobile, Wayne Manor and Gotham itself look drastically different from their appearances in the Burton films, but none of the changes are acknowledged onscreen apart from Batman's new attitude toward crimefighting. There's no direct references to the events of previous films, as all Call Backs are veiled (such as Chase hinting at Catwoman) and when Bruce discusses his past, he makes no reference to the fact that his parents' killer was the Joker (Forever's flashbacks to the Waynes' murder are new footage and do not include Napier's partner) and are vague enough that they could be construed as referring to a Joe Chill-esque figure instead (dialogue implies he was the first person Batman ever killed, which was not the case in the first film).note This would have been decisively averted by the planned Batman Unleashed film, which would have seen Nicholson return as Joker in hallucinations. There's also no reference to Batman being framed as a criminal in Returns, though this could be explained by Penguin's machinations having been exposed and Batman's role in saving the children from his plot.

Moon Logic Puzzle
 Batman Forever / int_558ae6f6
comment
Moon Logic Puzzle: The "solution" to the Riddler's riddles seems to stray into this territory, where the solution is to ignore the actual answers to the riddles and focus on the numbers in them, which when transposed to alphabetical letters give you "M-R-E," which is a homonym for "mystery," a synonym for which is "enigma," which added to the original answer gives you a rough approximation of "Mr. E. Nygma," or Edward Nygma. The jump in logic comes with there being four numbers given, 13-1-8-5, which translates to M-A-H-E on the alphabet. Somehow, Bruce immediately puts together that "1 and 8 are 18", as opposed to finding a sum of a combination of numbers, which produces the correct M-R-E answer Edward was giving.

Too bad it's short-lived after Two-Face and Riddler raid Wayne Manor with their knowledge of his secret. That and moments before, he relived the pain of his parents' death while trying to tell Chase his secret, reminding himself why he became Batman to begin with. By the end of the film, while he may still desire for a normal life, he realize he can't give up being Batman either.

Bat Deduction
 Batman Forever / int_56ff2e35
comment
Bat Deduction: Bruce discovers who the Riddler is through a series of riddles left to him, which he discovers is meant to indicate a series of numbers corresponding to letters of the alphabet. They spell out "M-R-E," which Bruce deciphers as "mystery" and "Mr. E," leading to the conclusion of Edward Nygma. However, there was more to his conclusion than just the riddles, not the least of which is that Nygma started up a company to rival Bruce's in the wake of a crime wave from the Riddler and Two-Face, and combined with the circumstances under which he left Bruce's company, the leap wasn't hard to make. The Riddler gets his own variant, presumably using The Box on various crooks around town in order to glean the location of Two-Face's hideaway. In the novel, the explanation makes a bit more sense: He simply traced back the anonymous orders of custom two-toned suits, half-and-half pizza, and the like.

Adaptation Distillation
 Batman Forever / int_5a40d6a
comment
Adaptation Distillation: The integration of Robin merged together his younger, more carefree days with his older incarnation (before he became Nightwing) as a Deadpan Snarker foil to Batman's Unfunny. See also Composite Character. Many superhero movies (especially sequels) have a hard time managing the villains' origin and Evil Scheme while still making it feel like it is the hero's movie (even The Dark Knight has been criticized on that part). This movie actually dedicates a good portion to specifically Bruce Wayne and not just "Batman stops the bad guy." While the Tim Burton movies are for the most part praised and loved, many people were unnerved with Batman's willingness to kill. Batman Forever manages to set up Batman's "no kill" rule rather plausibly, strongly suggesting that after killing the Joker for killing his parents, Bruce wasn't satisfied and kept killing criminals before he realized he had become a monster and learned to let go of revenge.

Gang of Hats: The glowstick gang. (Also colloquially known as the Neon Gang or Blacklight Gang.) Their skull makeup and tassels call to mind a Voodoo Cult as filtered through a modern lens. And then there is Two-Face's gang, which is sizable. Each mook is a variation on the standard leather vested, heavily-pierced biker type, with a Deathstroke-style ski mask to complete the picture. In the game version, Two-Face has a separate set of mooks in orange zoot suits, to match his unblemished side.

Soft Reboot: It nominally takes place in the same continuity as the Tim Burton Batman films, but it changes the design of Gotham, introduces a new cast — including doing away with Michael Keaton as Batman (Alfred's and Gordon's actors still stay on for the next two movies) — and goes over Batman's origin after Batman (1989) did the same.

Author Appeal: Joel Schumacher saw fit to include shots of Batman's and Robin's asses when trying on the new suits, zeroing in on rubber nipples and a wedgie. Schumacher is utterly unrepentant on his commentary track, advising viewers to "get out more." Schumacher is apparently also quite fond of black lights, pastel colors and rave lighting. Both of his Batmobiles (Forever and Batman & Robin) were tricked out with LED undercar lights, much like an illegal street racer, and the mooks are all wearing neon in some form or fashion (the Neon Gang's clothing, makeup, graffiti and glowsticks, as well as the "Yin Yangs" on Two-Face's SMGs). And then there's the Riddler's factory, which doesn't pretend to be anything besides an evil discotheque. Gotham itself is a lot more colorful than in Burton's day, brightening more and more as the night goes on: at dusk, the city is cloaked with pastel light fixtures, suggesting a Japanophile's take on the Dark Knight. (Indeed, the exterior shots of the Second Bank of Gotham borrows liberally from Blade Runner.) Even The City Narrows — where no light can even penetrate — is wallpapered with glow in the dark paint.

Room Full of Crazy: Edward Nygma has at least one picture of Bruce Wayne in his office (which is really a cubicle that he put glass walls around to keep the other workers out) and his home is filled with yet more pictures and newspaper clippings of the same. As The Riddler, he starts sending crazy riddles to Bruce's home and office made out of newspaper clippings. He thinks Bruce Wayne is the only man who can understand his genius- when Bruce brushes him off, he snaps, murders his supervisor (after using his device on him, unintentionally stealing his brainwaves to make himself smarter).

Jerkass Has a Point: Fred Stickley goes out of his way to verbally put Nygma down at every opportunity he can find. However, he suspected that Nygma's project was an example of unethical brain manipulation, and when Nygma uses him as a guinea pig those suspicions are confirmed. He then pulls no punches in telling him exactly what's in store for him on account of his use of the company's resources for something as unethical as brain manipulation. Nygma does not take it well. However, it's not explicitly clear which came first: the abuse, or the unethical brain manipulation.

Adaptation Relationship Overhaul
 Batman Forever / int_72ce3f54
comment
Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: Dick and Two-Face have had a very personal enmity against each other in the comic books but it was based around Two-Face brutally beating Dick at a young age when he was still Robin. Here, they have a different personal enmity, based on Two-Face murdering Dick's parents. Likewise, Dick and Bruce's relationship differs significantly as Dick is already a young adult by the time Bruce takes him in as a ward, not giving them time to form a deeper adoptive father/son bond. The result is that they have a thorny relationship from the start as Dick is already older and has a more fully formed mind of his own. And since Dick already has an independent "Nightwing" mindset to begin with, this trend of them butting heads would only carry on to the next movie. Two-Face and Riddler have shown up in the same comic book stories together prior to Batman Forever but the two have never been this close of partners or friends until this movie.

 Batman Forever / int_823c6e3e
comment
On the one hand, The Riddler is played by Jim Carrey at the height of his Large Ham comedy days, he looks ridiculous in the Riddler outfits, and he's just plain weird. On the other hand, he terminates his boss by letting him drop hundreds of feet into the ocean out of a glass window, founded and built a hugely successful company and made a fortune from it, became a super-intelligent genius with his invention and used it to discover Batman's true identity, invaded Bruce's mansion to blow up the Batcave and most of Bruce's equipment (including the Batmobile and his suits), and if not for his psychological need to have Bruce live so he could show him up, Nygma could have killed him outright. Within the four Burton/Schumacher films, Edward Nygma is the most dangerous enemy Batman ever faced. The only reason Batman and Robin even make it to his base is because he didn't anticipate Batman having a Batcave under the Batcave.

Spikes of Doom
 Batman Forever / int_83308c12
comment
The Riddler poses one to Batman at the climax: either save Chase or save Robin (a choice that also represents his two personas: Bruce and Batman). Obviously, he manages to rescue both, although the movie tries to admit a bit more realism by having Batman make the second catch damn close to reaching the Spikes of Doom.

Revenge Is Not Justice
 Batman Forever / int_8355aa1b
comment
Revenge Is Not Justice: After Two-Face kills Dick Grayson's family, he immediately plans to kill him for revenge and Batman spends the film trying to talk him out of it. When Dick finds out Bruce's secret, he wants to join so he'd find Two-Face but Bruce rejects him because he knows from personal experience that revenge won't undo the damage done to him. Dick does eventually take this to heart and eventually saves Two-Face, only for the latter to betray him immediately afterwards. In the climax, Bruce causes Two-Face's death by throwing coins in the air as Two-Face is flipping his own coin, which causes him to lose balance when he tries to catch the original and tumble to his death.

Big Entrance: Two-Face and crew crashing Nygma's party. Batman promptly one-ups them by coming through the skylight. In fact, Nygma unflatteringly compares Batman's cool skylight leap with his partner's trademark entrance: shoot guns in the air like Yosemite Sam. Near the climax of the film, Commissioner Gordon finally gives up on Batman after patiently waiting beside the Bat-Signal all night. He sadly tells a nearby cop to "shut it down"...whereupon the Batplane suddenly appears out of the clouds.

Where the Hell Is Springfield?: Gotham may be located anywhere between New York and California. Lampshaded by the way it seems to borrow its landmarks (the Statue of Liberty and the Golden Gate Bridge both show up). Furthermore, if you consider Two-Face's coin (confirmed by the tie-in toy), Gotham even has its own currency!

World of Ham
 Batman Forever / int_86ee8070
comment
World of Ham: Two-Face and the Riddler, as ever. They seem to be locked in a death match over who can overact the most. Evidently, Jones was quite nonplussed at Dumb and Dumber squashing his vanity project at the box office, and was determined not to be upstaged. Besides the villains, Bob Kane's widow Elizabeth as Gossip Gerty, Gotham's resident Joan-Rivers-up-to-eleven. Dick cruising for babes in the Batmobile. Or as he puts it, his "LURRRVE MACHINE, WOOO!" The uncredited Ed Begley, Jr. is also quite over the top as Stickley ("What the HELLISGOINGONHEEERE?"). Perhaps he didn't take the movie very seriously. Nicole Kidman gets her slice of pork as well. The Bank Guard, with his over the top observation, "OH NO!!! IT'S BOILING ACID!!!!" The whole scene with him was a Ham Chowder Feast. Then there's a guy at Nygma's party who gleefully shouts "Batman! YAAAAAAAY!"

Stalker with a Crush: Chase Meridian is a rare heroic example. She's intellectually curious (maybe more than normal) and romantically attracted to Batman. Edward Nygma is an actual stalker, posting sinister mail to his target, having photos and newspaper clippings of them all over his office and home, and dealing with his rejection by plotting to show up, humiliate and eventually kill him.

Sugar briefly acts as one to the Brucester himself, making eyes with him at the gala...and later convincing him to try out a Nygmatech trade show booth.

Big Bad Duumvirate: Two-Face and The Riddler. Who's in the dominant position (as well as who chews more scenery) varies over the course of the movie. At first, the Riddler is subservient to Two-Face, relying on his mooks and somewhat limited criminal resources to fund his Box ventures. However, as he grows legitimately richer and smarter, the Riddler begins to overtake the Big Bad slot. By the third act, the Riddler has his own island lair, death laser, mines, scuba henchmen, and elaborate deathtraps while Two-Face more or less plays The Dragon off to the side as Riddler goes into ham overload.

Changing Clothes Is a Free Action: Nygma has four different Riddler costumes over the course of the film: green suit w/ bowler, green spandex, black jacket with light-up question marks, and silver-and-glitter bodysuit based on 1970's David Bowie (with a question mark in place of the lightning bolt). Even his hairstyle keeps changing color and length, beginning with wacky Einstein Hair before progressing to a flattop (switching intermittently with a GQ haircut like Wayne's), and then back to a longer, electrified 'do reminiscent of Gozer the Gozerian. The last two costume/hairstyle combos occur minutes apart during the climax.

Death by Secret Identity: Both Two-Face and Riddler aren't able to do much with their information, which is disappointing since The Riddler had all that tech to broadcast Bruce's secret, but he went insane instead. And Two-Face was even unluckier. However the film doesn't explain why none of their cronies leak word of Bruce's identity, as they were present during the raid on his manor.

Dick and Two-Face have had a very personal enmity against each other in the comic books but it was based around Two-Face brutally beating Dick at a young age when he was still Robin. Here, they have a different personal enmity, based on Two-Face murdering Dick's parents.

Adaptation Dye-Job
 Batman Forever / int_a4414a05
comment
Adaptation Dye-Job: Bruce Wayne has consistently been portrayed in comics and other adaptations as dark haired (or at the least with brown hair). Kilmer isn't quite as blond as in his other films but he is certainly much more fair haired than the regular. Dick Grayson also usually has black/dark hair in the comics, but here his hair is more brown. The Riddler also typically has either black or brown hair in the comics, yet here he goes back and forth between red/orange hair and brown hair. Two-Face has pink hair, which is a first for him. Typically his scarred side's hair is either greying or white (that is when he has hair at all.)

Many superhero movies (especially sequels) have a hard time managing the villains' origin and Evil Scheme while still making it feel like it is the hero's movie (even The Dark Knight has been criticized on that part). This movie actually dedicates a good portion to specifically Bruce Wayne and not just "Batman stops the bad guy."

Black-and-White Insanity
 Batman Forever / int_a808063f
comment
Black-and-White Insanity: Two Face's good side, if he even has one, seems to be an excuse at best. To emphasize the point, he has two henchwomen named Sugar and Spice, a pair of attractive women who are supposed to represent his good side (Drew Barrymore) and his evil side (Debi Mazar) in very sexy ways. However, Sugar, the one who is supposed to represent his good side, is just as evil as Spice. Two-Face's actions show that rather than having a good side and an evil side, he only has the evil side but becomes obsessed with wanting the world to be fair. He only looks to commit murders but everyone gets a coin toss for a chance to be let go. Made worse by scenes showing him repeatedly flipping a coin until it comes up the way he wants it to. This makes it seem less like this trope and more like an OCD-type behavior.

Adaptational Jerkass: The version of Harvey Dent/Two-Face in this movie, despite being more comical and sillier, is also even less sympathetic and more sociopathic and unrepentant than his comic book counterpart. In the comics, he was more of a tragic Anti-Villain with sympathetic qualities, while here, he's more of an unambiguously evil villain with the "Anti" part and redeeming traits almost completely omitted, and he has enough Kick the Dog moments (such as killing Robin's parents) to make his fate at the end completely well-deserved.

comment
Sanity Has Advantages: Two-Face has Batman on the ropes, about to shoot, when Batman reminds him to flip his coin. When he does, Batman throws out a dozen or so similar coins. Two-Face tries to catch them all, and falls to his death. In the Peter David novelization, Bats blindly throws a Batarang, hoping to knock the coin away and stymie Two-Face. It works, but Two-Face just leaps to catch the coin and falls two yards onto a girder, with the equivalent of "nice try". Then Robin calls him out on never using the coin on himself. He looks at the coin, and just lets go. Robin says he didn't actually mean to kill him, and Batman says that maybe Two-Face just made his first real choice in a long time.

Pragmatic Hero: Despite telling Dick for much of the movie that killing Two-Face won't make things any better, Batman ends up killing Two-Face at the end of the movie. Though in this case, it wasn't so much out of hypocrisy as it was out of necessity, as Two-Face had the higher ground and was pointing a gun at them. Additionally, Batman had both Chase and Robin to worry about so in that instance, he wasn't given much choice but to protect them in any way he could.

Of all of Barrymore's screentime, she has exactly one scene that is not spent in lingerie, and except for a sheer coat, Mazar spends the entire movie in a dominatrix getup that would make Dr. Frank N.

Sadistic Choice
 Batman Forever / int_babc974
comment
Sadistic Choice: The Riddler poses one to Batman at the climax: either save Chase or save Robin (a choice that also represents his two personas: Bruce and Batman). Obviously, he manages to rescue both, although the movie tries to admit a bit more realism by having Batman make the second catch damn close to reaching the Spikes of Doom. The novelization, by Peter David, subverts it entirely. Batman catches the unconscious Chase, then looks for Robin, only to not find him entirely. He wonders if he could've fallen all that way, that fast, and calls out "Robin!" in despair. Robin, having braced himself on the inside of the tube, replies "Whatcha want?"

Loves My Alter Ego: Dr. Meridian is gaga for Batman, kind of "meh" on Bruce. Subverted when she changes her mind mid-movie, then again when she learns his secret, which is justified since she's fascinated by men with split personalities. She has clear reason to suspect Batman has a split personality, but no reason to think Bruce does.

After Batman survives Two-Face's attempt to incinerate him (as the Bat comes running out of the fire, leaving Two-Face and his mooks jaw dropped), Two-Face, now mad with frustration screams, "WHY CAN'T YOU JUST DIIIIIE?!" and fires a grenade at the support Batman was standing on, causing the entire structure to collapse and bury him. This might have actually worked had Dick not come along to pull Batman out of there.

Shout-Out

comment
Shout-Out: To the 1960s TV series in the scene when Batman and Robin first land on Two-Face's and the Riddler's base. "That circus must be halfway to Metropolis by now." "It's a trap!" From the video game, the "Big Riddle" form of the Riddler can break Batman's back during the final boss fight. The deleted scene with the giant bat owes something to Bernie Wrightson's cover for DC's ''House of Mystery'' #195.◊ In the climax, when Batman and Robin coming to their island headquarters, with Robin in the Batboat, Riddler and Two-Face set off a bunch of Sea Mines around ala Battleship. When the Batboat eventually explode and Robin is forced to eject, Riddler yells "You sunk my battleship!".

They Wasted a Perfectly Good Sandwich: Bruce and Alfred are devious when they work together. Bruce shows off his motorcycle showroom to Dick, and the youth suddenly takes a shine to his new dad. On cue, in waltzes Alfred with a platter of food: Whatever happened to Sugar and Spice's ridiculously lavish, six-course dinner that they prepared before Riddler turned up? Maybe Harvey invited Eddie to join them at the table after all. (That must have been a sight to see.)

Taking You with Me: The Riddler attempts this — as his brain is overwhelmed by the unfiltered Box energy beam, he still summons the willpower to press the button on his scepter twice and activate the trapdoors on Chase and Robin's tubes. Contrary to his hopes, Batman does manage to save both of them; as well, the Riddler survives the mental overload but is so broken that he no longer is a threat.

Lighter and Softer: Compared to the first one, and jarringly so compared to the previous installment, which in some ways was as good as it is gross. It's also more psychological than the first two, going into greater depth on why Bruce is Batman, his realization of what the superhero lifestyle has done to him, and the possibility that he might give up the mantle.

Metapuzzle: Shortly before the climax of the movie, Bruce discovers via Bat Deduction that the seemingly-standalone riddles that were put to him by the Riddler were part of a greater-scope riddle whose solution reveals the identity of the Riddler himself. Namely, the hints given upon solving each riddle are numbers, which are associated with letters from the alphabet: 13 (from the first riddle) becomes M, 18 (combining 1 from the second and 8 from the third) becomes R, and 5 (from the fourth) becomes E. So, MRE, or Mr. E (as in Mr. E[dward] Nygma). It also helps that Mr. E is pronounced identically to mystery, which is synonymous with enigma and relates to riddle, further connecting the Riddler and Edward.

Race Lift: A very strange example. Billy Dee Williams played Harvey Dent in the first film, which was in itself a race lift from the comics where Dent was nominally white (his exact appearance depended on the artist, sometimes he was vaguely Italian). This movie is supposedly set in the same continuity as the first film but Tommy Lee Jones was cast to play the character. So this is an example of a reversed race lift in the same continuity.

Edward Nygma unveiling his pet project: a blender full of Styrofoam peanuts! Stickley looks ready to gnaw on his knuckles in embarrassment, while Edward holds it aloft like the Holy Grail.

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Sugar & Spice know when to cut and run; they desert the Riddler once the throne room begins to explode. The Neon gang recoil when they see the Batmobile roll up, and rightly so... but they all share a laugh when a not-so-bright Dick exits the car, which gives their female victim a chance to run. Later, Batman shows up for real, and they all flee like little girls. Dick rode off Wayne Manor after Bruce has decided to give up on being Batman in order to have a normal life with Chase, and he refuses to help him in his vendetta against Two-Face. He comes back as Robin right after Two-Face and Riddler's siege on the manor.

A God Am I: The Riddler quotes these words exactly in regards to the power his mind-reading "Box" devices have granted him. He also finishes the exact phrase by intoning "I" in a sinister dark voice. Naturally, given his character, he promptly follows it up with some lampshading:

Two-Face may have gone a bit overboard with the Giggling Villain riff, but he had Batman a thread away from death on at least two occasions: when he buried Batman alive with the cave-in caused by his grenade launcher, and during the invasion of Wayne Manor. In these instances, only the last minute intervention of another party saved The Dark Knight's bacon: Robin digging him out in the former, and The Riddler preventing Dent from finishing Bruce's off with a point-blank headshot in the latter.

Ambiguously Gay: Jim Carrey plays the Riddler as a nerdier and somewhat more bloodthirsty Paul Lynde. He'd played creepy stalker roles before, most notably in The Cable Guy (which came out a year after this film), so nobody asked any inconvenient questions. He does show a modicum of interest in Chase, though his primary motivation is to make Bruce jealous (he actually has to deepen his voice when inviting her onto the dance floor).

Composite Character
 Batman Forever / int_e4965307
comment
Composite Character: Strangely enough, the Riddler is a unique combination of the hyperactive spandex trickster of the Silver Age and the suave businessman-like personality of the Bronze Age. This was partially explained in the novelization by having his mind getting fried from using The Box; he is the trickster when in the Riddler costume and the businessman when acting as the CEO of NygmaTech. Before he dons the bowler, Ed going postal on his supervisor is more reminiscent of Post-Crisis Scarecrow than anything. Brainwashing the people of Gotham with high-tech headgear seemed more like a job reserved for the Mad Hatter (who more casual fans often mistake for Riddler, given the latter's fondness for bowler hats in the comics), and discovering that Bruce Wayne is Batman by using a machine that creates visuals of a person's mind was a move made famous by Professor Hugo Strange on Batman: The Animated Series. Robin's origin is actually a composite of two comic-book Robins; in the comics, Two-Face killed Jason Todd's parents, and that element (along with Jason's desire for revenge) were imported into Chris O'Donnell's Dick Grayson character. In addition, his personality in being more confrontational with Bruce was more common after he left the Robin name and became Nightwing (which namedropped as a Mythology Gag). Batman & Robin also conflates the two, with "Robin's" symbol (normally a stylized R on a black circle) looking more like a red version of Nightwing's.

Camp
 Batman Forever / int_e540d1e6
comment
Camp: This put Joel Schumacher's love for camp on display, which was a breath of fresh air after the extremely grim overtones of the previous film. By and large, the camp was mostly the good kind - there was a lot more restraint than the next film, as the story, villains' plan, and Batman's issues were still taken seriously enough to care about. For example, the Box evolves from "random accumulation of wires and junk" to "sleek glowy spinny thing," but never stops looking like a blender, in a nod to the silly props of the TV Batman. Batman himself is noticeably the same character as the previous films. He takes the job seriously, doesn't joke around (besides deadpan quips), and patiently mentors Dick Grayson. In truth, besides the color scheme the only difference between this film and Batman Returns is that Forever seems far more aware of itself while Returns takes everything much more seriously (compare Penguin's circus-themed gang to the neon-paint gang in this film).

Adaptation Origin Connection: This happens by way of Composite Character, as the Dick Grayson version of Robin sees his circus acrobat parents killed by Two-Face instead of Tony Zucco, much in the same manner the first movie made Jack Napier (a.k.a. the Joker) the murderer of Bruce's parents rather than Joe Chill. This makes him a bit like Jason Todd in the Post-Crisis comics, whose gangster father was murdered by Two-Face.

This might have actually worked had Dick not come along to pull Batman out of there. Then there's The Riddler at the end, defeated and slowly going insane from his Box overload.

Darkest Hour: Say what you will about the "lighter and softer," but in this film Batman comes closer to defeat than he does anywhere else in the series.

Theme Music Abandonment: The movie replaces Danny Elfman with Elliot Goldenthal, who provided a lighter and more traditionally heroic theme as part of the shift to a Lighter and Softer tone.

Running Gag
 Batman Forever / int_f9f2c33
comment
Two-Face continuously has these throughout as a bit of a Running Gag whenever he fails to kill the Bat. Then toward the end, when he has his Disney Villain Death screaming frantically and falling to his death, reaching desperately for his coin.

11th-Hour Costume Change
 Batman Forever / int_fa4217f2
comment
11th-Hour Costume Change: Batman dons a silver batsuit with sonar capabilities before his final confrontation with Riddler (justified, as his standard batsuits had been destroyed earlier). Also, after wearing a fabric version of his classic costume throughout the film, Robin is given an armored version when he joins Batman.

Instant Soprano: Batman rescues Robin from barely even touching the spikes at the bottom of the Riddler's hideout, and he squeaks out a "thanks" to Batman, which makes you wonder how Robin would have been impaled.

One-Winged Angel
 Batman Forever / int_fc33ff16
comment
One-Winged Angel: It would have been played with. Original drafts of the script called for the Riddler to have become grossly muscled and huge when Batman finds him on Claw Island at the end. Batman assumes it's a side-effect of the Box process, and pities him. Then it's subverted; the Riddler hasn't been changed at all, he's just wearing a big muscled suit to mess with Batman some more, and he steps out of it. This was cut from the final draft, but was cut late enough to make it into the Novelization and the video game adaptations. It's also why Nygma is abruptly wearing a white Riddler suit for the film's final scene: the muscle suit was colored as such. In said novelization and video games, the Riddler's suit under the muscle suit is still his trademark green.

Edward Nygma is an actual stalker, posting sinister mail to his target, having photos and newspaper clippings of them all over his office and home, and dealing with his rejection by plotting to show up, humiliate and eventually kill him.

 Batman Forever / int_fd4f8299
comment
Well-Intentioned Extremist: Edward Nygma is clearly one at first, since he only wants to patent and market his virtual-reality invention - without approval from his superiors, if necessary - to spare the people of the world from "being brutalized by an uncaring reality" (which is a correlative to his own loneliness and sense of worthlessness). It's not until he accidentally discovers that "The Box" can extract information from human minds that he decides to go down the criminal route.

Skyward Scream
 Batman Forever / int_fd5f23a7
comment
Skyward Scream: Each time Batman gets away, Two-Face takes it a little more badly. During the car chase, the Batmobile drives up a vertical facade, leaving Harvey at street level and hopping mad. Later, when the Riddler hands him a newspaper reporting Batman's escape from the subway, he literally rears his head back and bawls like a baby.

 Batman Forever / int_fea27091
comment
This put Joel Schumacher's love for camp on display, which was a breath of fresh air after the extremely grim overtones of the previous film. By and large, the camp was mostly the good kind - there was a lot more restraint than the next film, as the story, villains' plan, and Batman's issues were still taken seriously enough to care about. For example, the Box evolves from "random accumulation of wires and junk" to "sleek glowy spinny thing," but never stops looking like a blender, in a nod to the silly props of the TV Batman.
