Episode 285- Who is the Best Batman? Feb 10, 2022

Show notes

Tickets are on sale this week for Robert Patinson's The Batman, and all signs point to the movie being an interesting and dark take on the Caped Crusader, so we decided to take a look back to the Batmans of the past to try and figure out who was the best portrayal of the Dark Knight. Rather than just saying our favorite movie, we break it down by categories like best Batmobile, best gadgets, best villains and many more. Let us know in the comments or on social media what your top picks are.

Episode 278- Adaptations That Shouldn't Be Made Dec 24, 2021

Show notes

Just because we can, doesn't mean we should. In light of the cancellation of Netflix's Cowboy Bebop adaptation, we decided to come up with a list of books, comics, animes and video games that definitely don't need to be adapted into a live action show or movie. Either they are too sacred to try and redo, or they just wouldn't lend themselves well to the format, these properties definitely should NOT be adapted. Are you listening Netflix/Amazon/Hulu/Paramountplus/Disneyplus?
