I heard an amazing story this morning about Joel Schumacher, George Clooney, and B+R.

 

 

See this is like a supermodel saying, hey later on we're going to have some great sex. 

 

I expect to have some great sex and I expect to hear this amazing story.

Are you going to share with the class?

 

:D

 

Okay, so way back when, my buddy was working for a production company that had a deal with Schumacher's company. They went to a meeting with Schumacher, who was doing pickups for BATMAN+ROBIN, so they went to the set to visit and talk. Clooney was there in the Batsuit, Chris O'Donnell, etc. Anyway, partway through the meeting, a PA runs up all excited "They just finished it! We got a copy!" The first trailer had just been finished and no one had seen it yet. So everyone went to Schumacher's trailer to watch it, because he had the best setup. All excited, they let my friend and his boss tag along. So there's my buddy, all excited too, getting a sneak peek -- the very first sneak peek -- of the new Batman movie.

 

......and then the trailer played. And my friend remembers looking at Clooney, and watching his expression change, first from excited and interested to sort of a glazed look of doom. "You could see him", my buddy said, "realizing that he had just thrown his whole career in the toilet". (Meanwhile, of course, Schumacher and his posse were super geeked at how "cool" all the colors looked and how "badass" Mr. Freeze was.)

 

LOL.

 

edit: you assholes, I should delete this post and never tell.

....and yet you never heard stories like this during the time before it was popular to shit on Batman and Robin. Strange indeed....
