Celebrating 25 Years Of Batman Returns: The 9 Best Moments From The Film

In 1992, Tim Burton delivered the second and final installment in his Batman series, Batman Returns. While the film was praised for its all-star cast, action sequences, and gorgeous design, the dark and gloomy tone resulted in Warner Bros. changing things up for 1995's Batman Forever. And, as we all know, it went to pot right around then.

The Penguin Takes Control Of The Batmobile

Recommended Videos

Arguably, the most fun moment of the entire film is the Penguin assuming control of the Batmobile and taking it for a joyride through the streets of Gotham. Looking like the ultimate arcade ride, Oswald does what every single one of us has dreamed of doing at some point in our lives and becomes the Batman for a short time.

As the Penguin goes Twisted Metal on other cars and pedestrians, Batman attempts to gain back control of the hijacked vehicle from his nemesis. Rather than enjoy the ride, though, Oswald degenerates into a typical cartoon villain, revealing his dastardly plans and thoughts to his greatest foe and all-time snitch of the GCPD. Predictably, his dumb actions come back to bite him in the butt later on, because Batman records his monologue and plays it for all of Gotahm to hear.

Most importantly here, does anyone know where we can find a replica of the Penguin’s Batmobile ride from the film? We’re, um, asking for a friend who really needs it in his home.
