10 Worst Moments in the BATMAN Film Franchise

5# The €˜Bat Credit Card€™ - Batman & Robin (1997)

The scene in Batman & Robin (1997) which begins with a charity auction and ends with the dreadful line €œNever leave the cave without it€ is terrible. Up to now I have offered only my personal opinion on my choices, fully aware that others will disagree and offer their own interpretations. In this case, however, I shall not be moved. I truly believe that this scene is undisputedly and indefensibly terrible. Firstly, Batman and Robin agree to make an appearance at a charity benefit, which serves only to demystify the two silent guardians of Gotham€™s vulnerable populace by giving them near celebrity status. Secondly, Poison Ivy appears dressed as a giant gorilla - which is all I really need to say for that. Lastly, when the two heroes bid against each other for a date with Ivy while under the influence of her hypnotising potion, Robin claims that he€™ll borrow some of Batman€™s money before Batman shows him the Bat credit card. Oh dear. This scene is in fact so bad that YouTube responses to it from people like €˜NostalgiaCritic€™ become internet phenomena. And I wholeheartedly agree with all of them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70vHRlhspLE
