Why did they go with something so evil and apocalyptic sounding for Batman and Robin?https://youtu.be/T69Yk6IccL0
why was Joel Schumacher allowed to make another batman film?
>>150209797>This song was written by Billy Corgan for the Batman & Robin soundtrack and prepared fans for the new direction the Pumpkins were headed, culminating on the critically acclaimed Adore LP.>The lyrics are a representation of the Batman of the 1940’s when he was a “darker character”. Soon after the release of the single, Corgan spoke to MTV about his decision to create a song for a character like Batman.> At one point I found myself going, “I can’t write a song about Batman, I’m in an alternative band.” And I thought this is stupid, if I can write a song about Batman and it serves the purpose, which is to make it happen and connect with the movie, and connect with something that is unique and original, then, why not?>The lyrics, instrumentation and music video are all a testament to the vision of the darker side of Batman. Press the play button to watch the highly stylized music video nominated for four awards at the 1997 MTV VMAs.
>>150210058Because everyone forgets but Batman Forever did extremely well.
>>150209797More fitting than that other song calling Gotham City a "city of justice and love".
Because the movie as a whole was an incompetent attempt at mixing dark Batman with campy Batman.
>>150210058Batman Forever (like all Batman proceeding it) was the highest grossing of the year. Batman and Robin was what broke that precedent when it dropped to like 8th place and got the franchise put on ice.Also its pretty funny that Zack Snyder used a remixed version of that Smashing Pumpkins song for the original Watchmen teaser:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdiHDzT6YbQ
>>150210058>>150210728Batman Forever has a decent premise, especially with the deleted scenes in mind. Even with the movie half on the cutting room floor, it's at least okay.>>150212186>put on iceYou think you're clever don't you, you little shit?

>>150212268>>150209797man what happened to major singers/bands just making insane bangers for random movies
>>150212268https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDd2G_V1rzcLook at how the music video is shot, its like a fucking lifetime movie lmao
>>150212268>>150212311Always preferred the U2 song over this one.
>>150212186It wasn't really a remix. They did two versions of the song and released them both at the same time on the same album.
