4. Arnold Schwarzenegger Batman and Robin
There comes a time in every movie-goers life that they must take the bull by the horns and plumb the depths of despair. Honestly, its only by watching such turds as The Room, Birdemic and the Uwe Boll filmography that we can truly appreciate just how bad films can be and better adjust our critical hat in the future. Its like a rite of passage we all go through it, and come out the other side a changed person. Nowhere is this gird-your-loins film-making more apparent than Joel Schumachers Batman and Robin. We all know this is the low point of the Batman franchise, with its bat-credit cards, bat-nipples and Chris ODonnells Robin, but these are just planets orbiting an awful, over-acting sun. Yes, of course Im talking about Mr. Freeze. What I often find is that everyone
knows how ridiculous Ahnulds Freeze was, but much like a vaccination, you have to take regular doses to keep aware of just how ridiculous acting can be. For a lot of people, this performance is a legend of hamminess, but confined to their past like bell bottom jeans or dodgy haircuts. This should not be the case for once youve seen him, the goalposts for what does and does not pass in a film are forever changed. Puns? Yes. Garish outfits? Of course. Arnolds game for anything remember, he once debated playing Dr. Manhattan naked and blued-up and it damn well shows here. I have to believe that the Governator knew this was a bad film, so just decided to enjoy himself. Otherwise, theres absolutely no other way that I can explain what actually happens in his scenes. Everything is a pun. Everything. Frankly, its almost obscene, and you have to keep re-watching it just to make sure it actually happened.
