** While explaining why most Dr. Seuss adaptations suck, the Critic puts up clips of such infamous scenes as [[Film/TheCatInTheHat the "dirty hoe" line]], [[Film/HowTheGrinchStoleChristmas the Grinch]] sticking out his butt as a taunt, and [[WesternAnimation/TheLorax the Once-ler]]'s VillainSong.

** Seeing that Horton is fully CGI, the Critic feigns relief that at least Carrey is not in make-up, while showing him in make-up as the Grinch.

'''Tagline:''' Series/TheLastAngryGeek joins the review of one of the strangest Batman The Creator/DrSeuss movies made. Some have a soft spot for it, been pretty bad, but this one is there really anything of worth?
said to be the... least bad. Are people right?



* AffablyEvil: The Mocker, though he's arguably more Affably Misguided. Set up as a supervillain who taints blockbuster movies with his questionable creative decisions, yet in person is just the nicest guy you've ever met.
* AlasPoorVillain: [[spoiler:Red Lobster abruptly kills Mocker right when Critic and friends finally make peace with him.]]
* {{Blackface}}: Inverted. Malcolm dresses as a Two-Face {{expy}} with his entire face painted white.
* ChekhovsGunman: There's mention of a hypothetical lowlife getting his hands on a Spider-Man costume and calling himself "Red Lobster". [[spoiler: Guess who kills the Mocker?]]
* LargeHam: Much attention is paid to how orgasmic the extras' expressions are.
* MsFanservice: As a parody of Dr. Chase Meridian, Tamara wears a low-cut cocktail dress and flirts aggressively.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: The Mocker dresses just like the Riddler, but his hair, voice and mannerisms are clearly based off ''Batman Forever's'' director Joel Schumacher.
* NowBuyTheMerchandise: Critic and friends not so subtly urge the viewer to buy the ''Series/{{Rifftrax}}'' version of ''Batman Forever'', which like this episode, is also a collaboration between Doug & Rob Walker with Brian Heinz (The Last Angry Geek).
* RunningGag: The name of Robin's alter ego, Dick Grayson, inspires dick jokes a-plenty.
* SoOkayItsAverage: The final opinion on the film is that its not a flat out trainwreck like ''Film/BatmanAndRobin'', but its not a very good film on its own either, mainly because of its inconsistent tone and uncertainty of who it intended its audience to be.

** Realizing
that its not a flat out trainwreck like ''Film/BatmanAndRobin'', but its not a very good this film on its own either, mainly because of its inconsistent tone stars Creator/JimCarrey as Horton and uncertainty Creator/SteveCarell as Ned, the Critic snarks that such a combination works so well, while showing a poster of who it intended its audience to be.
