The Joker is one of the most populaire villains in all of fiction. He was already populaire in the comics, but his appearances in télévision and films have made him soar to new levels of fame. Cesar Romero was the very first actor to play the Joker. Since then, the Joker has been played par Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, Jared Leto and Joaquin Phoenix, all of whom are Oscar winners.

It's hard to keep track of all the different Joker actors, because there's been so many. An actor that deserves plus attention is Rene Requiestas. Rene Requiestas was a legendary comedian in the Philippines. He passed...

A lot of people, including non-comic fans, think that Christopher Nolan's Batman films are well-made, high-class films. In fact, several versions of Batman, including the 60's montrer and 90's films, are treated as if they're inferior and not worth taking seriously.

However, I, whatsupbugs, am one of Batman's plus obsessive and geeky fans and I'd like to propose a theory. It's a crazy theory, but I still believe in it. My theory is that the 1991 comedy film, Alyas Batman en Robin, is better than Christopher Nolan's highly-acclaimed trilogy.

You're probably already confused and toi might think...

In 1991, the world was gifted with the release of Alyas Batman en Robin, a Batman parody from the Philippines. The film has gotten very little attention and l’amour in America, but I've fallen in l’amour with it. In the past thirty years, we've gotten far plus superhero films than there's ever previously been. While lots of people adore the serious, sophisticated and dark films we've been getting, I desperately crave the eccentric appeal of the campy superheroes. I know that Alyas Batman en Robin isn't a serious film with a deep story, but there's nothing wrong with that. Films are classified as...

Alyas Batman En Robin is a parody of Batman from 1991. Due to being a parody, several of the character's names are changed. Also, the film created some original characters.

Kuya a.k.a. Batman: Kuya isn't an actual name. It's a word meaning "big brother", which is fitting since he's Kevin's brother in the film. Kuya is one of the two main Heroes of the film. Although he's Batman, Kevin (the film's Robin), is the one who comes up with the idea to be a crimefighter. Also, this film's Robin's is a better fighter than Batman. Despite Kuya and Kevin being brothers, they are played par a father-son...

Alyas Batman En Robin was a film that was made in the late 1980's as a parody of Batman. The film was made in the Philippines and was going to be released in 1989, but that was the same an as Tim Burton's first Batman film. Because of this, Alyas Batman En Robin was considered to be a knockoff film that wanted to cash off the success of Tim Burton's film rather than be a parody of the 60's Batman télévision series. The film's release was delayed until the an 1991.

The film got a decent amount of attention in the Philippines, but remained obscure to people from other countries. However, Emer...

There are several Batman films and there a few that can get pretty weird. The classic 1966 film is known for the absurdity of Shark-Repellent Bat Spray and the 1997 film, Batman and Robin, is known for the ice-pun antics of Mr. Freeze. However, Batman has had even weirder adventures.

Quite possibly the weirdest Batman film and one of the weirdest superhero films, in general, came out in 1991 and was made in the Philippines. The film is called Alyas Batman en Robin.

Alyas Batman en Robin isn't necessarily an official Batman film, because it's somewhat of a parody. Also, the film doesn't star...
