That's more than anyone can say about Batman v Superman. In an interview with Vice, Schumacher happily apologized for a lot of Batman & Robin ‘s flaws, but darkly joked about one part the Bat-nipples: Such a sophisticated world we live in where two. "Maybe I was just naive, but I'm still glad we did it."īut, to his credit, at least those movies were fun. In the same article, he said that Bob Kane doesn’t understand why Chris O’Donnell Robin has an earring and Batman has nipples. "You know what? I really never thought that would happen. He did the nipples and when I looked at them, I thought, that's cool.Īt least he stands by his decision, though. So I said, let's make it anatomical and gave photos of those greek status and those incredible anatomical drawings you see in medical books. By the time Batman Forever came around, rubber molding had become so much more advanced. It was brilliant but the best they could do at the time. If you look at when Michael Keaton appears in the first suit, you'll notice how large it is. If you look at Batman and Batman Returns, it was the genius Bob Ringwood that created those suits, so by the time we got to Batman Forever, the rubber and techniques had gotten so sophisticated. Well it was made by Jose Fernandez, who was our brilliant lead sculpture. Then he explains the thinking behind adding the nipples to the Batsuit: "I want to apologize to every fan that was disappointed, because I think I owe them that."
"Look, I apologize," Schumacher told Vice. The bat nipples, though, quickly sucked up all the oxygen surrounding Batman & Robin. In fact, he begins the interview with an apology. Still, the nipples didn’t seem to take away from the film’s success, and when Schumacher returned for the fourth film, Batman & Robin, they appeared once more, this time on George Clooney, who now replaced Kilmer. For the 20th anniversary of Batman & Robin, Vice has a somewhat depressing interview with. For the 20th anniversary of Batman & Robin, Vice has a somewhat depressing interview with Schumacher, who really seems to regret his years at the helm of Batman. To this day, the Bat Nipples are known as one of the low points in the history of the franchise. To this day, the Bat Nipples are known as one of the low points in the history of the franchise. Batman was just constantly cold I guess." You know that's not something you really think about when you're putting it on. As he said in 2014, "I wasn't thrilled with the nipples on the batsuit. Not even Batman & Robin star George Clooney could figure it out. The other things you can make a case for-I guess Batman would need a credit card, as he's not going to use cash or carry a checkbook.īut there's no logical reason why Batman's suit would need nipples. The Bat Credit Card, the Bat Ice Skates, the air surfing were all pretty bad-but Schumacher's unfortunate era of Batman is most infamously known for the Bat Nipples. There's a lot to be disappointed about when it comes to director Joel Schumacher's pair of '90s Batman movies Batman Forever and Batman & Robin.
