"I'm a lover not a fighter. That's why every Poison Ivy action figure comes with him!"
The most telling line of the movie.
Wilkinson's Brooklyn accent left a lot to be desired. I mean I thought it was rather obvious that Falcone was always played like Don Vito Corleone, especially in "The Long Halloween" (that whole opening with Johnny Viti's wedding and Harvey Dent getting License Plates was clearly and blantantly ripped right out of "Godfather")
But I guess Wilkinson didn't bother reading the comics that Falcone was featured in, because the moment he opened his mouth and said "You're taller than you look in the tabloids, Mr. Wayne" I literally cringed for an instant and thought "What the hell is this?"
Part of that was probably just because I, like every other reader, fabricated an idea of what Falcone would sound like through the dialogue of the books.
But I just have this gut feeling that, given how Loeb played him in "TLH," none of said readers, myself included, imagined the character having an accent a'la Deniro in "Taxi Driver."

The entire Script to 'BATMAN AND ROBIN'.
Hideous.
Mr. Freeze saying "Chill" before he hits his victims with the freeze gun induces dry heaving everytime I hear it... even in my memory.
I'll probably have rotten fruit thrown at me, but...
"Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moon light?"
Something about this always seemed very stupid to me. It just seems so...unnecessary.

I agree. Its just BAD in every possible way.I hate to not bring anything new to this thread, but after seeing Batman & Robin for the first time in years a few hours ago, I can easily say that the ENTIRE script should be listed as a bad quote. A really long bad quote. Oh my GOD, that movie is terrible ...
That's the quote I was going to mention. It's ... Awful.
Yes, he really really did...The whole Bruce/Alfred father/son-life/death subplot was the most meaningful part of that movie...On the bright side, Michael Gough/Alfred had some decent lines. They were just overshadowed by the rest of the script.
Heh...I can't believe in Ivy's climactic fight scene, after Batgirl beats her down...She actually screams out-Robin: "No sign of the snowman."
Batgirl: "Maybe he melted."
Batman: "No. He's just hibernating."

"CURSES!!!"
That's where I realized this movie was never intended to be serious...Just a tribute to the 60's campy show...
No, just thinking 'Maybe Schumacher made numerous, numerous consecutive terrible mis-judgements'...Until that hit me in the mouth and said 'It WANTS to be THIS bad'...Are you saying you watched the first two hours of Batman & Robin and only realised at the end that it wasn't supposed to be taken seriously?
