It's so weird. The Batman movies by Tim Burton set the tone (quite literally, with the theme song) for the animated series. And they went ahead and gave Mr Freeze a tragic backstory.

Only for Joel Schumacher to pick up the Tim Burton series, throw away the tone (that kids loved from the show) to be more kid friendly, but keep the tragic backstory while portraying him as some punny goofball.
