Alicia Silverstone\'s Batgirl movie costume and more from Batman & Robin on display...

Aside from the dumbed-down plot and high-camp performances, one of the many problems with the fourth entry in the

Batman franchise was the inclusion of too many characters, as not only did 1997\'s Batman & Robin feature three supervillains (\'Mr. Freeze\', \'Poison Ivy\' and \'Bane\'), but it also introduced a third hero into the mix in the form of \'Batgirl\', played by Clueless star Alicia Silverstone.

Original movie costumes from 1997\'s Batman & Robin

Uma Thurman\'s Poison Ivy movie costume and Arnold Schwarzenegger\'s Mr. Freeze cyro-suit costume, the 75th Anniversary Batman Exhibit at the Warner Bros. Studios VIP Tour Museum on July 29, 2014 also featured the superhero costumes worn by Alicia Silverstone, Chris O\'Donnell and George Clooney (as the latest actor to play Batman).

Not only does the exhibition have fantastic costumes and props from all seven

Batman movies, but many of the display mannequins even feature waxwork likenesses of the actors, complete with hair and special effects makeup, especially important in the case of villains like The Joker, The Penguin and Two-Face, which really help to complete their on-screen looks.

Ingrid Ferrin and Robert Turturice were Costume Designers on Joel Schumacher\'s second

Batman movie which introduced Batgirl as the newest addition to the caped and cowled family, as the infamous Dynamic Duo became the Talented Trio, Tremendous Trio, Terrible Trio?!? You decide.

\'Barbara Wilson\', the niece of Bruce Wayne\'s butler, \'Alfred Pennyworth\'. Attending an English boarding school after the death of her parents in a car accident, she chooses to visit her uncle when she discovers he has a rare, life-threatening disease.

Bat-suit, designed for her by Alfred, and defeats Poison Ivy to save Batman and Robin. All three join together to help prevent Mr. Freeze\'s new ice-age and in the process discover a cure for Alfred\'s illness. Although, it must be hard fighting crime (and running) in those high heels.

In this fourth installment Chris O\'Donnell reprised his role as

\'Dick Grayson\', aka Batman\'s sidekick \'Robin\', although this time his costume bears more of a resemblance to his Nightwing alter-ego from his DC Comics adventures.

If you\'re a fan of the actor and the character, be sure to check out his red-breasted 

Robin costume from Batman Returns on display too.

George Clooney became the third actor to play the Caped Crusader after Michael Keaton and Val Kilmer in the first three movies, and sported this all-black Bat-suit in this film sequel.

Bat-Hero\'s utility belt needs a selection of Bat-themed tools and the exhibit for this movie also had a cool selection of screen-used props to peruse.

Batman & Robin may not have been the best movie to watch (and almost killed off the Batman film franchise), but seeing all these authentic costumes and props up close and mostly out of display cases was a real delight.
