Joel Schumacher's BATMAN FOREVER Gets a TRON: LEGACY VHS-Style Trailer

I remember being so excited about seeing Batman Forever back in 1995. I couldn't wait to see it! It definitely didn't live up to my expectations. That movie was just way too over-the-top and cheesy for my taste. I hated how the villains were portrayed in it.

YouTube user Sam Ibrahim took the film and cut together his own trailer using the Tron: Legacy soundtrack and giving it a '90s VHS-style feel. The result gives the footage of the film a completely different tone, and I really dig it. This is what the creator had to say about what he was trying to accomplish with it:

"A more of a serious take on Batman Forever using music from Tron Legacy, to match up with glitches and almost 'hacker' nature of The Riddler portrayed by Jim Carrey. This was the first Batman film I saw as a kid, and as cheesy as it is, still one of my favourites. I think Val Kilmer was underrated as Batman. Would love to see him back in the superhero genre one day. This is my tribute to Mr Kilmer."

Hey everyone, I'm back again with another fun trailer I put together in my down time. A more of a serious take on Batman Forever using music from Tron Legacy, to match up with glitches and almost 'hacker' nature of The Riddler portrayed by Jim Carrey.
