1844 - The Batman Movie Review Mar 17, 2022

Show notes

It's time for the Geeks to take on the latest iteration of The World's Greatest Detective and this time, he brought with him a definitive article. And in order to tackle a movie the magnitude of The Batman, the Speakers of Geek welcome back avid film critic Julian Lytle to the show! Prepare for a review not quite the length of the movie itself, but still one that delves into the finer details, inspiration, costuming, acting, staging, and brooding that Matt Reeves' take brings forth.

Show notes

Look at what the fork we just put out! A choice choice by Murd, as Ian, Shane and Chris join him on a return to 1999, and the cult classic superhero epic, Mystery Men. How does the movie hold up after all this time? Just how heavy was that bowling ball The Bowler was holding? Will disco ever die? How fast can Roy get Furious? Do superheroes wear glasses? Is shoveling a martial art? Are there any names better than Casanova Frankenstein? And is Invisible Kid really invisible? Tune in to find out, or I'll eat this sandwich. (1:26:44)
