This'll be my first in a series that I'll be updating when I feel like it. I'll be using this to list ways we could improve on things in our world, whether they're already great and just need some fine-tuning, or whether they are absolute horribufuckus. Like my first entry: Joel Schumacher's Batman and Robin.

 Bruce Wayne/ Batman
First off, let's establish a bit of continuity: inthe last movie, Brucie had slicked-back blond hair and glasses. George Clooney looks nothing like that. Also, they need to make Wayne Manor look like it did in the first two movies. Stop switching it around!

Dick Grayson/ Robin
He has no place here. Go back in time and cut him out of Batman Forever. I honestly think that he was only introduced so Batman could have that choose-between-Chaise-or-Robin scene toward the end. But if you must have him, don't make him twenty-something years old.

Barbara
Continuity alert! Barb is supposed to be Gordon's daughter. Not Alfred's neice!

Mr. Freeze
Personally, I actually kinda liked Mr Freeze. The costume looks great. I mostly think they should have him lose 98% of his one-liners. There are three that he said that I wouldn't have minded if he just stopped with them: "The Iceman Cometh", "Kick some Ice", and my favorite "Allow me to break the Ice". Lose the polar bear slippers. Take out the scene where he conducts that symphony of "I'm Mister White Christmas", and the scene where Vivica Fox tries to seduce him. And lose the neon in front of his hideout.

Poison Ivy
Not much to say here. Lose the Drag Queen attiude. Take her hair out of those wierd spool things. And no wierd love dust.

Bane
Make his mask more like it's supposed to be. Let us see his mouth. No skull-and-crossbones Venom Button on his chest. And for Godsakes, let him speak fluently. And make him caucasian, not green.

Other
*Explain what happened to the whore-ish Chaise Meridian in the last movie. They thinly explained what happened to Vickie Vale, we all know what happened to Selina Kyle, so what's with the plot hole? Did Bats just leave her behind James Bond-style? Did she just evaporate?
*As much as I like the scene with the Riddler suit, why is Two-Face's suit there? He's dead, so why would his be in the costume locker?
*I really think the subplot with Robin being affected by the love dust could have been kept out. It's just annoying.
*What's with the spontaneous costume change after beating Ivy?
*I find it odd that Ivy would be defeated by kicking her into the Venus Flytrap that she was using as a throne not minutes before. Especially when she can control plants.
*I think I may be the only one to notice this. There's a shot during the Ivy fight scene where Robin's being attacked underwater by vines. He pops up out of the water, gasps for breath, looks around as he does. Then the reverse the shot so he looks around again as he's dragged back under. Then after Ivy's deafeated, it shows the shot again as he comes out.
*Why does that one Arkham guard have an eyepatch?
*Lose any and all cliches. No Robin shouting "Cowabunga!", no lightning striking the Lab, no "First Gotham, then the world!", no "Curses!", etc etc.

 That's all for now! Till next time!
