Episode #756: The Batman (W❤️M) (Patreon)

“He’s a gooner!” - Eric, on this version of The Riddler

On this month’s super-sized We ❤️ Movies, we’re chatting about a real excellent-ass comic book adventure, The Batman! Yes, it’s a long one, but what would we cut here? How incredible is Michael Giacchino’s score? How magnificently do David Fincher Vibes (DFVs) pair with Gotham City? Is this the best on-screen depiction of the “Bat & the Cat” relationship? How rad are all these massive LED-screened Gotham cityscapes? And Jeffrey Wright: best Jim Gordon ever? PLUS: Would The Riddler let those tweakers at the abandoned orphanage watch Seinfeld DVDs?

The Batman stars Robert Pattinson, Zoë Kravitz, Jeffrey Wright, Colin Farrell, Paul Dano, John Turturro, Andy Serkis, Peter Sarsgaard, Jayme Lawson, Gil Perez-Abraham, Peter McDonald, Con O’Neill, Alex Ferns, Rupert Penry-Jones, Hana Hrzic, Sandra Dickinson, and Barry Keoghan as You-Know-Who; directed by Matt Reeves.
