** In one of his last interviews before he passed away, Schumacher said that Jones was jealous of Carrey's popularity on set, as Jones was used to being the EnsembleDarkhorse in films. He also had just won an UsefulNotes/AcademyAward for his role in ''Film/TheFugitive'' and gained a swelled head, and felt Carrey (who does not have the same honor) was beneath him.

** A 2-player BeatEmUp with Batman and Robin for the [[UsefulNotes/SuperNintendoEntertainmentSystem SNES]] and [[UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis Genesis/Mega Drive]]. There was also an arcade cabinet version which got ported to PC, UsefulNotes/PlayStation and UsefulNotes/SegaSaturn. That one utilized more conventional gameplay on par with the earlier ''Batman Returns'' beat 'em up. Both used [[TwoAndAHalfD digitized graphics]] in the style of ''VideoGame/MortalKombat1992'' or ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry''. There were also 8-bit versions for UsefulNotes/GameBoy and UsefulNotes/GameGear), as well as a PC version which was similar to the SNES game but with added CGI cutscenes. A [[UsefulNotes/Sega32X 32X]] version was cancelled.
** The [[UsefulNotes/The16bitEraOfConsoleVideoGames 16-bit]] version is 2-player and allows you to control Batman and Robin. Both have their own unique moves, but you're limited to two per level (as selectable "gadgets"); you can unlock four new ones by finding the [=WayneTech=] "blueprints" scattered in the largest levels. Due to the dearth of memory on offer, there are about 5 or so regular enemies total, with two (the inmate and the clown) appearing only in their respective stages. Unlike most brawlers, each crook [[CastOfSnowflakes gets their own nickname]]. In ''VideoGame/FinalFight'' and ''VideoGame/StreetsOfFury'', no attempt was made to hide the fact that you [[YouALLLookFamiliar keep fighting the same guy]]. Two-Face is fought twice, promptly keeling over once his stamina is drained (only for Batman to fail to apprehend him for some unexplainable reason), while the Riddler is fought countless times thanks to Nygma's "[[ActuallyADoombot holograms]]." Two-Face's henchwenches also appear as sub-bosses, although Sugar is, depressingly, a {{palette swap}} of Spice. (So much for kick boxing with Drew Barrymore in an SNES game.) Interestingly, Two-Face does ''not'' have an AmbidextrousSprite: his moves vary depending on which side is facing the screen.
