A benevolent patrician fights a vulgar populist in Tim Burton's game-changing comic-book adaptation BATMAN (1989). We discuss the film's distinctly Reagan-era vision of an urban hellscape, and theorize how Michael Keaton's Batman and Jack Nicholson's Joker symbolize two different style of corporate branding.

Over the holidays here in California some friends and I decided to watch the National Film Board of Canada classic “Project Grizzly,” about the tragic case of eccentric inventor Troy Hurtubise and his Quixotic mission to create a suit capable of withstanding a bear attack. I’d love to see it get the full Michael and Us treatment— if anyone could pick apart this weird stew of macho insecurity, mental illness and Canadiana and find something interesting to say about it, it’d be you two.

Loved hearing about Will's childhood obsession because I was in the same boat as a kid (and was probably even more obsessed with Batman Returns when it came out). With all the Joker discourse of the last year it's always kind of funny to see people try to lump in Nicholson's Joker with Ledger/Leto/Phoenix when it's clearly just Nicholson making some easy cash (as much as I enjoy him in this).
