1. Arnie Wins The Worst Competition Ever
Joel Schumacher's hopes for Arnold Schwazenegger's association with Batman & Robin must have been high, considering the director allowed the muscle-bound future governator to be given top billing in a film starring someone else, and you can almost imagine the director's unbribled glee as he finally saw his star turn delivering the carefully crafted by Akiva Goldsman (who would somehow later write A Beautiful Mind.) Sadly, for Schumacher, and for every Batman fan who has seen Batman & Robin, Arnie was about as suited to playing Mr Freeze as he would be to playing Martin Luther King, and the presence of the action movie "God" turned the script into a stockpile of some of the most embarrassing, cringeworthy one-liners and "witty" quips that have ever been conceived. The character design was one thing, with his sparkly blue face raising more than a few eyebrows, and even more question marks, but Arnie's pantomime delivery, and the lack of a relatable human element (the most key part of any villain, as Schumacher clearly never learned) were the nails that drove the coffin lid down. Thanks to that performance, Mr Freeze will probably not be considered a viable on-screen villain for future Batman movies for some time, because the negative associations are simply too much of a stigma to have to contend with. Did we miss any terrible performance moments that derailed the Batman films, and which would be far worse than Ben Affleck could ever be in Batman Vs Superman? Share your own picks below.
