One of the really funny things I noticed flicking through it was how many adverts there are for cigarettes in it!
Anyway, lots of good stuff in here. Joel Schumacher once again is interviewed and we get a concrete quote that he chased Robin Williams for "about a year" to play the Riddler and he was interested but kept putting off signing on.
And I was right. The way you looked at Jack Nicholson, Danny DeVito, Michelle Pfeiffer, Tommy Lee Jones, and Jim Carrey the way they play Batman villains are well received by critics. Arnold Schwarzenegger did fine as Mr. Freeze, but Uma Thurman felt terrible at playing Poison Ivy. Cillian Murphy did a terrific job playing The Scarecrow, because it was well received.
ReplyDeleteYep Tim and Joel were friends and met while making Lost Boys and Beetlejuice.
ReplyDeleteThat's right, Jack.
