20 Things You Didn't Know About Batman & Robin

2. Arnold Schwarzenegger Earned Nearly A Million Dollars Per Pun

Arnold Schwarzenegger picked up a hefty $25m paycheck for starring as Mr. Freeze in Batman & Robin, as well as taking top billing in all promotional and marketing materials, which is a sweet deal for a supporting role that only required 23 minutes of screentime in a 125 minute movie.

Arnie's performance is now mostly best remembered for his constant stream of terrible character-related ice puns, of which he makes no less than 27. To put that into perspective, for every time Mr. Freeze cracked a lame joke at some point during Batman & Robin, Schwarzenegger pocket roughly $925,925 plus change.

I don't do social media, so like or follow me in person but please maintain a safe distance or the authorities will be notified. Don't snap me though, I'll probably break. I was once labelled a misogynist on this very site in a twenty paragraph-long rant for daring to speak ill of the Twilight franchise. I stand by what I said, it's crap.
