There are aspects of the late Joel Schumacher film Batman Forever that delve into the psychological nuances of Bruce Wayne’s dual identity, and there is a possibility that these aspects make the film better than fans remember it being. In a stroke of good luck, the version of Batman Forever that was directed by Joel Schumacher is consider to be more faithful to the director’s original concept than the studio’s version. Which was develop with the intention of making the Batman film more appropriate for viewing by younger audiences. After Batman Returns, this was the impetus for WB and Tim Burton to part ways and go in different creative directions.

Batman Forever and other Films:

The Schumacher Cut of Batman Forever is ready to be showing by Kevin Smith. But it is not yet clear whether or not this will result in a worldwide distribution of the film. However, the fact that both of the screenings of the Schumacher cut holding by Will Smith on July 1st and August 25th were completely sold out suggests that Warner Bros. Discovery may be persuade to distribute it. This was reveal in the most recent episode of the Fatman Beyond podcast. In which hosts Kevin Smith and Joe Black discussed the over two hours and thirty-five minute long cut. Claiming that it is unquestionably superior to the version that was showing in theatres.

Since the studio dubbed over Two Face’s lines in the studio cut, the character appears to be less campy in the beginning of the film. This is because Two Face manages to escape Arkham Asylum before the theatrical cut ever begins. In this iteration of the story, Bruce is shot by Two-Face, which causes him to lose his memory. This leads to Bruce coming face to face with the huge bat, which represents Batman’s authentic identity. This moment was on a sequence from Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns. And, oddly enough, the scene in which Dick Grayson does his laundry while demonstrating karate moves has been removing. This was a cheesy sequence that was inserting later. Ostensibly to explain why Grayson would make a fine Robin.

Camp Aesthetic

While Schumacher went all out with the camp aesthetic for Batman and Robin. The version of Batman Forever that was releasing in theatres was more of a continuation of what Tim Burton is doing rather than what the studio want it to be. As a consequence of this, the Schumacher edit might, in hindsight. Continue the franchise in a manner that is actually more congruent with the mood establishing by The Dark Knight trilogy. Kevin Smith has expressed his desire for Warner Bros. to distribute the Schumacher cut of Batman Forever. He believes that this would not only improve the overall viewing experience for the film’s devoted audience, but it would also present Warner Bros. with an opportunity to generate additional revenue.

When it comes to providing incentives for WBD, there does not appear to be a valid reason for not releasing the Schumacher edit, as well as even Batgirl and the Ayer edit of Suicide Squad. According to Smith, it is an opportunity for the studio to make money while simultaneously appeasing the fan base. It even makes sense within the canon of DC Comics, considering that The Flash has now opened the door to the multiverse, allowing for multiple timelines to coexist.

There is a studio edit of Batman Forever that may be viewing on MAX.
