In the second of the blockbuster Batman films, the physically deformed criminal genius The Penguin threatens Gotham City--and, helpless, the entire city can only pray that Batman Returns. Only Batman (Michael Keaton) can defend the city from total chaos as The Penguin (Danny DeVito) lays twisted waste to a great metropolis. Meanwhile, the Dark Knight may have met his equal in the lethally lithe Catwoman (Michelle Pfeiffer)--only he doesn't know if she is feline friend ... or foe.
Even film executives know there are some titles that shouldn’t be touched. For many movie fans, “The Wizard of Oz” falls into that category. Yes, we’ve had a musical spin on the tale (1978’s “The Wiz”) and various prequels and spinoffs (1985’s “Return to Oz,” 2013’s “Oz the Great and Powerful”).
