With over 80 years of history under his utility belt, Batman has been the subject of multiple film and television adaptations. Many of these adaptations manage to capture the elements that draw fans to the Dark Knight, from Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy to Matt Reeves's The Batman. But the same could be said for Joel Schumacher and his Batman films Batman Forever and Batman & Robin, especially as the latter celebrates its 25th anniversary this year.
Perhaps the biggest Silver Age influence in Schumacher's films is the outlandish villains. Many of Batman's foes usually have an outlandish gimmick and Schumacher took that to the next level, as Forever features the dual menace of Two-Face and the Riddler while Batman & Robin has Mister Freeze , Poison Ivy and Bane .
The other comic is Detective Comics #359, which features the first appearance of Barbara Gordon as Batgirl. Alicia Silverstone plays Batgirl in Batman & Robin, who is reworked to be the niece of Batman's steadfast butler Alfred Pennyworth .
