Talk:Batman Forever

Gotham City article info

There's a fair amount of information at Gotham City which is not reflected here in this article. Would someone please bring over anythign that can be used, and delete anything which you can refute based on the research and info here? I don't want to randomly throw in facts from there to here and significantly throw off all the work that got this a GA, but there's abotu zero apparent overlap between the two articles.

Box office grosses

It says in this article that Batman Forever is the 4th highest grossing Batman film to date. Under the Batman Returns article, it says that Batman Returns is the 4th highest grossing Batman film to date. Which is it?Vesus (talk) 03:37, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Well, Vesus as of 2008, Batman Forever is currently the fourth highest grossing Batman film to date. Remember The Dark Knight, and it knocked down Batman Returns from the fourth to the fifth. See below.

list of the highest grossing Batman films as of 2007 1. Batman (1989) 2. Batman Begins (2005) 3. Batman Forever (1995) 4. Batman Returns (1992) 5. Batman and Robin (1997) 6. Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1994)

year in film links

I've just done a date audit and discovered that the monobook script is suddenly removing such links. I've checked with the programmer. In fact, I think WikiProject film might already deprecate such links. Please let me know if you want me to revert (or are reverting yourselves—feedback would be good). Tony (talk) 03:42, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

I'd say have the links in there. Considering this is a '95 film, 1995 in film is a better link than simply 1995. Plus, and this is just me, I'm sometimes curious what other films came out that year and the link is a nice thing to have. Anakinjmt (talk) 04:42, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

The "original cut"

I appreciate the info, but we seriously need to find some other way to summarize this whole thing. Any suggestions? Wildroot (talk) 06:55, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Summarizing might be good, but surely we would lose information in doing that? The list I posted is not the complete list, just the most important changes.JesusFreak89 (talk) 06:46, 7 January 2009 (UTC)JesusFreak89

Sugar and Spice fate

The Movie is ambiguous as to the fate of Sugar and Spice-it only shows them running away on stairs under the platform after Nigma's carrier beam is destroyed. Was it planned that way in the original script? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.83.126.88 (talk) 17:41, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Filming location

Weren't the external scenes of "Wayne Mansion" shot at Webb Institute in Glen Cove, NY? The Wikipedia entries for other Batman movies include information about where they were filmed. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webb_Institute 96.255.105.148 (talk) 02:21, 28 March 2011 (UTC)Dane

Critical reaction Section

It would appear that someone has been trolling there.

How is 77 percent more balanced than 44 percent?

Reused footage?

After Bruce takes Dick into his home, he has a flashback to the murder of his parents. Is that footage reused from an earlier movie (maybe an alternate angle?), or is it new? Allen (talk) 22:21, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

@Majinsnake: Did you have any comment or recommendation other than a random URL? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 03:59, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

The url is not random as it talks about Michael Keaton walking away from the Batman Franchise to his reason not being in Batman Forever. You should read the information in the url. It appears the information has been updated on the Batman Forever page by someone. Majinsnake (talk) 00:26, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

Bill Finger Creator Credit

I've added Bill Finger to the infobox under the "based on" section along with Bob Kane. As I've stated on the other Batman film pages, Finger is now an acknowledged co-creator of Batman. I think it's important to add this to each page since it keeps the pages as factual as possible - without this note in the infobox there is little or no reference to Finger as the co-creator, while some mention of Kane's contribution is still present. I've noted that Finger's contribution was uncredited at the time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Friendly Lobotomy (talk • contribs) 19:50, 9 November 2017 (UTC)

Psychiatry/psychology

Throughout the article Meridian is referred to alternately as a 'psychologist' and 'psychiatrist'. These are two distinct things - but I can't find a definitive source on it outside .fandom wikis (which are similarly inconsistent). ADEps (talk) 15:08, 22 June 2019 (UTC)

I have corrected the instance of "psychiatrist" to "psychologist" because the latter appears much more often in this article and in other material. ADEps (talk) 05:04, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

Schumacher

Vulture.com interviewed Joel Schumacher. He comments about Kilmer "I said he was pyschotic", and says that Tommy Lee Jones was difficult but always delivered good takes. He says "I shouldn't have made a sequel" and explains his reasoning, and also makes his opinions clear "Nor do I ever think Batman and Robin are gay."

It's a long interview which covers many topics including Batman but there's probably some of that interview that could be referenced in this article. -- 109.76.195.16 (talk) 15:47, 29 August 2019 (UTC)

this article is a mess

Horrible language throughout. Anyone care to clean it up? My suggestions and edits tend to get revertedRobbmonster (talk) 08:40, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
