Finally, we know exactly what is in the "Schumacher Cut" thanks to Drew Griffin

I know I've done tons of videos over the years on the deleted content from Batman Forever. Seems crazy to do yet another one but this is a BIG one.

A few weeks ago I reported that the Cinefile Video screening of the "Schumacher Cut"/workprint was cancelled due to a cease and desist letter from Warner Brothers. 

I was really disappointed for Drew Griffin, who's been helping out with the YouTube channel this year, as he was due to see it.

Thankfully, although Cinefile didn't screen the workprint, some other mysterious benefactor decided to screen it somewhere else for the people who were going to attend. So Drew did see it and here he's taken the time to break down all the differences.

Take it away Drew.

What's On All Our Minds? The Schumacher Cut

So sadly, the Schumacher Cut (ie. the workprint) of Batman Forever didn't get screened at Cinefile Video as planned on May 29th. They got hit by a cease and desist from Warner Brothers.

I had a few thoughts about what happened and what the future holds for this fabled cut.
