It ’s been a coupledecades , now , I consider we can all just admit it : for a sure version ofBatman , Joel Schumacher ’s Batman and Robinkindof rules . A chintzy fever dream , it ’s an incredible drill in ‘ 90s Blockbusterexcess and the sort of Batman that fans of Adam West ’s ‘ 60 series wouldrecognize and relish . The credit cards?The Bat Nipples?These things areridiculous , and they ’re ridiculous on purpose . If you play along , it ’s a bam .
And I ’m not the onlyone who thinks this . In the preceding few years , I ’ve seen a lot of hoi polloi be kinderto the much - maligned motion-picture show . Unfortunately , that does n’t admit the film ’s star , George Clooney , who really should give himself more credit .
As recentlyexplained by Clooney to Howard Stern ( as transcribe bytheHollywood newsperson ) , Clooney still has some big regrets .

Look, these costumes are a delight.Image: Warner Bros.
“ The verity ofthe topic is , I was bad in it . Akiva Goldsman — who ’s won the Oscar forwriting since then — he wrote the screenplay . And it ’s a frightful screenplay , he’ll tell you . I ’m dread in it , I ’ll say you . Joel Schumacher , who just passedaway , directed it , and he ’d say , ‘ Yeah , it did n’t work . ’ We all whiffed on thatone , ” he said .

Clooney added that , while he was in the movie , he had very little say in how it go down .

“ I couldn’thave done that one differently , ” Clooney sound out when Stern asked aboutproduction regrets . “ It ’s a big machine , that thing . You have to rememberat that compass point , I was just an actor stick an acting task . I was n’t the guy rope whocould greenlight a picture show . ”
I ’m sorry you haveregrets , George . But , come on . It ’s pretty fun . Uma Thurman ! Arnie ! It ’s a funtime . Give yourself a break .
