I can’t decide if Batman Forever sucked because it was too goofy or if it wasn’t goofy enough.

Too goofy
Batman Forever rules.
Batman Forever did not suck, but it did not rule either. It gets a worse rap than it deserves but it also earned a lot of its rap (eg. nipples in the Batsuit). I’d give it maybe a 6.5 if you ignore a lot.

I like some of that and think some one liners are vilified too much. It’s definitely not as bad as people say but it’s nowhere near good.
Clooney of Ocean’s 11 would have been great. I have no idea why he was constantly twitching his head in the Batsuit.

What’s so great about Batman Forever? No Robin?
Did you ever watch the Schumacher commentary? He was so good, a joy to edit.

Casting Arnold Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze was the best part about Batman Forever.

Honestly, Batman Returns is very high in my power rankings right now, it might be
Dark Knight
Batman Returns
The 1960’s one
Haven’t seen the first and didn’t really like the second
Those are somewhere in my top ten for sure.
The dialogue is so much fun.
The suits have nipples lol but they otherwise look cool. I had that Robin action figure for many years.
Chris O’Donnell is way too old for the part, but he was otherwise great. I thought Val made a great Bruce Wayne AND a great Batman. Nicole Kidman as Chase? Come on. Speaks for itself. Riddler and Two-Face were campy, yes, but they too were fun enough for me not to care.
It’s also to my knowledge the only Batman movie where Bruce both confronts and resolves the trauma from his parent’s death. It leaves absolutely no room for a sequel, because who cares about a Batman that isn’t dark, but as the resolution to this movie, it was meaningful.
It’s also so self aware that I take it as a kind of satire. Take, for example, this moment.
