Joining us in our dank dark cave this week is the excellent writer and podcaster Tim Worthington, who has taken us back to 1989 when super-hero films were a bit of a treat, and so was Tim Burton.

Send us a textHave you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight? Tim Burton's 1989 Batman transformed not just how we see the Dark Knight, but how Hollywood approaches superhero films entirely.When Michael Keaton was announced as Batman, fans were outraged. A petition with 50,000 signatures protested the decision. Even Batman creator Bob Kane expressed doubt. Fast forward to today, and many consider Keaton the definitive live-action Batman, perfectly balancing Bruce Wayne's sophistication with Batman's brooding intensity.Jack Nicholson's Joker performance remains legendary. After negotiating a percentage of box office and merchandise sales (earning him between $50-90 million), Nicholson delivered a villain for the ages - theatrical, unpredictable, and genuinely menacing. His iconic line about dancing with the devil still sends chills down spines decades later.What makes this film special is how it broke from convention. Rather than beginning with Batman's origin story, Burton introduces him as an established vigilante, gradually revealing his past through carefully placed flashbacks. The film's gothic visual style, Danny Elfman's unforgettable score, and practical effects created a Gotham City that feels tangible and timeless.Batman grossed $411 million worldwide, holding the record for highest-grossing superhero film until 2002's Spider-Man. More importantly, it proved comic book adaptations could be serious artistic and commercial ventures, paving the way for everything from Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy to today's superhero renaissance.What's your favorite Batman film? Does Keaton still hold the crown as the best Batman, or has another actor claimed the cowl? Share your thoughts and join the conversation!Support the show

What do Batman and Superman have to do with Jewish identity? Other than the fact that their creators were Jews: Batman by Bob Kane, and Superman by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster? It is more than that. It is about having multiple identities. About a decade ago, I interviewed for a rabbinical position. A past president of the synagogue asked: "Rabbi, are you a Jew first, or an American?” This was my answer. "With all due respect: If that question could wear clothing, it would be a Nehru jacket. It seems so out of fashion right now. I live my life fully, both as an American and as a Jew. And I suspect that most American Jews would say the same thing. They feel no tension between their American identities, and their Jewish identities." The (admittedly edgy) answer must have satisfied him. He nodded; I got the job; we became good friends. But, what was this gentleman really asking me? He was resurrecting a classic Jewish accusation -- that Jews have dual loyalty -- to their Jewish identity, and to the places that they live. It is a suspicion as old as Pharaoh in the book of Exodus. And, what was I doing? I was playfully suggesting that you can have both identities -- often, simultaneously. It is not only possible to have dual loyalties. It is necessary. That is the subject of our podcast interview with Rabbi Nolan Lebovitz. He is the senior rabbi of Valley Beth Shalom, in Encino, California – one of the most prominent synagogues in America. His new book: "The Case for Dual Loyalty: Healing the Divided Soul of American Jews."

Tim Burton directed "Batman Returns", the sequel to the first Batman film of the iconic franchise that came out of a comic book created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger. This sequel had an all-star cast that included Danny DeVito, Michael Keaton and Michelle Pfeiffer who played a great Catwoman. I think "Batman Returns" is an okay film by critical point of view but I sure enjoyed the hell of the it. It is fun to watch due to its entertainment value. It has action, some type of drama when it comes to local politics of a city, romance stemming between Bruce Wayne/Batman and Selina Kyle/Catwoman, and the villain. You gotta have a villain that stands out and Tim Burton's version of Penguin. The design of the Penguin is forever iconic, but how DeVito brings this type of character out. You almost want to root for him and we do actually! We are amused and intrigued as what his goal in this film beside being a mayor. It's a film that's easy to enjoy and part of the reason is not Tim Burton's vision, but the one-liners that almost every character possesses. I'd say, half the time, it works! You really have to see the film to be embraced by the corny-ness of it all. Apart from that, I do like Burton's version of a gothic, dirty Gotham City, where you never seen the sun, lights blind the viewer, and technology seems to be lost in time. I do like cinematography, Burton made great decisions of what kind of shots we should see. A lot of them feel as if they did come from a comic book page. Every shot is different, proposing its purpose. I like the use of blue in the film, especially to mimic moonlight. What's great of the film is how these actors play these characters and play them respectfully toward the screenplay. The way Burton displays the interaction of Batman and Catwoman in the action and dramatic scenes are almost a masterclass of it's own. We honestly forget that we are watching two people dressed in costume. We forget their masks and false identities and realize underneath that are hungry human beings trying fill personal voids and Burton did a great job creating that.three out of four tokes.#batmanreturns #timburton

Welcome to the 8th episode of our Trilogies series. We hope you enjoyed our last episode where we looked at The Apu Trilogy directed by Satyajit Ray. This episode we are looking at comic book movie cinema. The main subject of this trilogy just had their 85th birthday. Batman himself created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger. This episode we discuss and review The Dark Knight Trilogy: Batman Begins (2005), The Dark Knight (2008) and The Dark Knight Rises (2012). Each starring Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne/Batman and directed by Christopher Nolan. After Batman & Robin bombed critically and earned a modest intake at the box office, the Batman franchise lay dormant for a while. Films like a fifth Batman film set to have George Clooney return as Batman was cancelled, along with a Batman: Year One adaptation. Christopher Nolan fresh off the indie success of Following, Memento and also Insomnia, his first big studio film, was tasked to bring the character back to life. His take on the Batman mythos was a lot more grounded in realism and more character based and less of the Toyetic films Joel Schumacher were directing last time. Nolan's three Batman films are some of the best and influential superhero films of all time and he really shows you how its done. He tells a great and moving cinematic tale over three films and finishes the trilogy (mostly) in a satisfying way. You can find The Dark Knight trilogy to stream on Max and you can also find it on DVD/Blu-Ray.We hope you continue to enjoy this new Trilogies Series we're doing and we also hope you enjoy this episode.Stay Tuned for more!During the podcast we talk about this man: comic creator and writer Bill Finger. Bill Finger for a long time was not credited for co-creating Batman while Bob Kane received sole credit. He was a key figure in creating that character and actually had a lot of substantial input into bringing Batman to life. You can learn more about his story in the documentary Batman & Bill. You can see the trailer here. Anders's screenwriter work can also be seen in the western The Outlaws which is a available to watch in the US & the UK on Amazon and Apple TV.

Well, here we.... go! Joker: Folie à Deux - the sequel to the polarizing but smash hit Joker - has now hit theaters. it's not secret at this point that Todd Phillips and his team had no intention of making a sequel to the first film but Academy Awards, including one for Joaquin Phoenix himself, and a billion-dollar box office run started to turn some heads over at Warner Bros. This is why I've always been very concerned about this sequel, despite still being a BIG fan of that first movie. The trailers certainly looked impressive but my concerns from a story perspective were not swayed. All that being said, the divisive reactions honestly had me so intrigued to go check this one out. I had the pleasure (I guess?) of seeing this one yesterday so let's discuss whether Joker: Folie à Deux is as good as the first film, in spoiler-free fashion!

Les débuts de Batman datent de mars 1939. Le dessinateur Bob Kane a créé ce personnage, en prenant pour source d'inspiration un peu de Zorro, un peu de Sherlock Holmes, un peu de Dracula, un peu de Leonard de Vinci et en s'appuyant sur ses études sur les chauves-souris pour imaginer une machine volante... Dans "Ah Ouais ?", Florian Gazan répond en une minute chrono à toutes les questions essentielles, existentielles, parfois complètement absurdes, qui vous traversent la tête.

Puntata a cura di UntimoteoLa serie animata Batman: Caped Crusader consta - per ora - di una prima stagione di 10 episodi da poco meno di mezz'ora. Tutti reperibili su Prime Video. Ideato da Bruce Timm assieme al veterano dei comics Ed Brubaker, la produzione vanta anche Matt Reeves, regista del più recente lungometraggio sull'uomo pipistrello, e J.J. Abrams, la mente dietro a successi planetari come Lost, Alias e Fringe. Il personaggio creato da Bob Kane e Bill Finger torna qui alle origini. Il risultato è una serie piacevolmente noir. Senza però essere troppo cruda come in quelle prime storie. Con una strizzatina d'occhio, forse un po' ingenua, alle tematiche “inclusive”. Questo show animato ha senza dubbio del potenziale assai interessante. Alla seconda stagione, del resto già annunciata, la responsabilità di portarlo a definitiva maturazione.“Animazione” è il format del podcast di Mondoserie dedicato alle diverse scuole ed espressioni del genere, dall'Oriente alla scena europea e americana.Parte del progetto: https://www.mondoserie.it/Iscriviti al podcast sulla tua piattaforma preferita o su: https://www.spreaker.com/show/mondoserie-podcast Collegati a MONDOSERIE sui social: https://www.facebook.com/mondoseriehttps://www.instagram.com/mondoserie.it/ https://twitter.com/mondoserie_it https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwXpMjWOcPbFwdit0QJNnXQ https://www.linkedin.com/in/mondoserie/

Batman completou 85 anos. Criado em 1939 por Bob Kane e Bill Finger, o personagem se tornou um dos maiores super-heróis dos quadrinhos e ícones da cultura pop. Mas, desde a sua primeira aparição em Detective Comics # 27, a mitologia do herói foi fortalecida por outro elemento importante: os vilões! Coringa, Duas-Caras, Charada, Mulher-Gato, […] O post Confins do Universo 208 – A mais imBATível galeria de vilões apareceu primeiro em UNIVERSO HQ.
Tim Burton's dark 1989 take on the billionaire who dresses as a bat came decades after Bob Kane and Bill Finger invented the character. And while Ryan talks a little about the other films in this long-running series (and the '60s TV show), the star of this one-man show is the '89 Batman. Michael Keaton proved the naysayers very wrong in this stylish comic-book adaptation (is he still the best Batman ever?) and Jack Nicholson has a gigantic ball playing the Joker. The rest of the cast nails it too, Prince's songs remain infectious and Danny Elfman's great themes have become legendary. Love it, but Ryan still wisecracked a lot in this 586th edition of Have You Ever Seen (not the 585th as is said in the intro), but that's what happens when you see a movie 10 or 20 times. You love it and love to make fun of it. So stay out of a big-city alley, but DO fly your small plane in front of the moon as we conclude Revenge Month with the one about the tortured vigilante loving a shrieking Kim Basinger and hating a mobster-turned-psycho-clown.

Joker 2: Folie à Deux Trailer Explained #jokerfolieadeux #joker2 #joker #ladygaga Warner Bros released the first trailer for Joker: Folie à Deux during its studio presentation at CinemaCon in Las Vegas. Todd Phillips directed the sequel and co-wrote the film with Scott Silver and Bob Kane. The film stars Joaquin Phoenix as Joker and Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn. The cast also includes Catherine Keener, Brendan Gleeson, Jacob Lofland and Harry Lawtey, with Zazie Beetz returning from the first film. Philipps discussed Joker (2019) and continued on by explaining what led to the sequel. “When we were making the first movie Joaquin and I always talked about making a sequel really because we were having a great time, but we were never really serious”. He continues, “then when Joker became a huge success, we talked about it during the pandemic and decided to do it and we had a blast doing it.” Continuing about the sequel Philipps mentions Lady Gaga and the musical elements of the upcoming film. “We cast Gaga because she's magic. I was a producer on A Star is Born and that was where I was like she has magic in her.” “I've never talked about it as a musical, but it's a movie where music is an essential element.” “The first ways I described Arthur were as weird and aloof and distant, but he has music in him, he has a grace to him. That informed him a lot in the first film. It didn't seem like that big of a step what we did here.”
Andy and Brendan are joined by Kaylee and Jon Mercado to discuss episode 1 of the new Vice TV docuseries, "Icons Unearthed: Batman". They also chat about the new Batman Forever figures coming from McFarlane Toys and review the next episode of The Batman, "Grundy's Night".

Welcome to the debut of Batman... or should we say, The Bat-Man. In Detective Comics #27 Bob Kane and Bill Finger introduced a character who would impact the pop culture of the 20th century in ways nobody could have guessed. Hell, reading this entire comic book it becomes clear nobody would have guessed this stuff would still be around in ten years, let alone 80+ years later. We attempted to read all of Detective Comics #27, but the length and the general crumminess stymied us! Still, reading some of the other stories helped give some interesting context for just how samey and yet how different Batman is in comparison to these other detectives. Also: what the hell is wrong with the movies? We go on a long digression and kind of an argument about the way that franchises - especially action franchises - have disappointed at the box office this year. Are we on the cusp of an inflection?Thanks for listening! Join us on the Discord by becoming a member at www.patreon.com/cinemasangha!
BATMAN: YEAR ONE Around 2000, while Darren Aronofsky and Frank Miller worked on their own film adaptation of Miller's Batman: Year One, Warner Bros. lured the Wachowskis to the project after the success of The Matrix, leading them to write their own take of Year One. In contrast to the screenplay written by Aronosfky and Miller, the Wachowskis' proposal was more faithful to the original comic and Warner was pleased with it. In the end, the Wachowskis preferred to continue their work with The Matrix trilogy, and their version of Year One was adandoned.
