Why is "Batman and Robin" so reviled?

Ladies and gentlemen, the Great and Malignant SPOOFE will give you the - THE - perfect example to demonstrate just WHY B&R sucked:

There’s a scene in some factory/warehouse/whatever where Batsy and Robes are fighting the villains. Poison Ivy’s love-dust disrupts them and distracts our heroes long enough for the villains to escape.

Batman regains his bearings and senses just as Ivy a Co. disappear down a hallway or something.

For some reason, Batman just watches them go.

That’s right. He doesn’t chase after them. He doesn’t run to catch up to these dastardly villains to prevent them from murdering potentially thousands of people.

HE STANDS THERE AND WATCHES THEM RUN AWAY.

Why? I dunno.

But that’s why B&R sucked.

Now that can mean many things, but just sayin’…

Guys, Ludovic’s defective! Get him to the B&R-Hater Clinic and re-lobotomize him! Hurry, before he infects the rest of the populace!

… Er, I mean… sorry, man, but there’s a level of camp that just doesn’t fly. For one, it’s kinda hard to picture Batman being incompetent.

But then again, I loved Super Mario Bros. and Escape from LA, so who am I to judge?

Batman and Robin is just a 90 minute gay joke? I’ve heard this somewhere and then something about homoerotic in this thread, someone care to elaborate? Is it just cause 3 dudes live together?

Something like that was said in Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back, comparing the Bluntman and Chronic movie to B&R.

Hmmm…

Gay…?
