In June of 1995 when Batman Forever was released I was 9, and it was my first live-action Batman movie. I was too young for Tim Burton’s Batman and Batman Returns, so instead, I fed my love of Batman with The Animated Series. Well, I genuinely like Batman Forever (somebody has to!).

Seeing as most people hate Batman Forever, you’re probably wondering why I would bother writing about such a bad movie. As for Batman, I use Batman to refer to scenes wherein he acts as Batman, and Bruce when he’s not in costume or to describe his mental/emotional experience. Just out of strange personal habit I tend to use the alter-ego names Robin, Two-Face and Riddler except when refering to scenes *before* Edward becomes Riddler, when I use Edward. A quick note about names: the four main characters have two names – Bruce/Batman, Dick/Robin, Harvey/Two-Face, and Edward/Riddler.
