Gibt es etwas, was noch nicht zu der (vielleicht) besten Filmtrilogie gesagt oder veröffentlicht worden ist? Tatsächlich gibt es da etwas! Christopher Nolans „The Dark Knight“-Trilogie hat im Gegensatz zu manch anderen Franchises keine durchgehende Videospielumsetzung erfahren. Neueste Leaks zeigen, dass es wohl neben einer nie veröffentlichten „The Dark Knight“-Umsetzung Überlegungen zu einem weiteren Videospiel im Nolanverse gegeben hat. Wir blicken zurück. Wie es scheint, war der frühere Entwickler „Pandemic Studios Brisbane“ nicht der Einzige, der seitens Warner Brothers mit der Entwicklung eines Batman Games aus dem Nolanverse beauftragt worden ist. Nach kürzlich veröffentlichten Material auf X soll auch das Entwicklerteam von Monolith Productions (zeichnet sich ebenfalls für das 2021 angekündigte Wonder Woman Spiel verantwortlich) an einem Batman-Spiel mit dem Codenamen „Project Apollo“ gearbeitet haben,… Weiterlesen... The post Es war einmal: „Projekt Apollo“ als Videospiel im Nolanverse? first appeared on BATMAN NEWS.de.
Don't worry, no need to wear protective eyewear to listen to this weeks episode. This week, EA makes a few announcements, some of them late, some of them unexpected, and some of them booed. Ubisoft finally gives us a release date for Star Wars Outlaws, and gives the Prince of Persia a roguelike makeover. Meanwhile, Disney makes big announcements for 2026, Joker gets a trailer, and AMC says "hindsight is 20/20". That and more.

In this episode of The Batman Universe podcast, Scott interviews Robert E. Eliot, author of… The post Interview: Robert E. Eliot, Author of ‘Nolanverse’ appeared first on The Batman Universe.
This episode cotnains: Steven and Ben have a low-effort, high stress-relief episode. Nothing matters anymore: Steven's world is on fire with COVID hitting his house again, and it's looking to derail Steven's wife's 40th birthday plans. Well, they were secret 40th birthday plans that Steven has worked really hard to set up, and now are in peril. Some days, Steven just needs a nap and a juice box. Ben prefers the term “house spouse” to “stay at home parent,” but Steven HATES it. Devon isn't here because he went to Omega Mart in Las Vegas: that crazy fever dream/theme park/grocery store. Ben's mom is recovering well from surgery, and Ben has dealt with stress by forgetting a bunch of stuff he actually did do and escaping into Elden Ring. Clean your room!: Air purifiers aren't enough to clean your home from wildfire smoke. After a wildfire, if you want to stay healthy indoors, it's not enough to just open windows. Volatile Organic Compounds can stay in floors and walls. How do you get rid of them? CLEAN UP! Mopping, dusting and vacuuming can get those VOCs out of your surfaces. Good luck if you have popcorn ceilings, like Ben does. Ben remembers finding patterns and images in the popcorn ceiling back in high school. Steven remembers the word Pareidolia: the perception of random images, especially faces, in random shapes and lines. https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/10/air-purifiers-arent-enough-to-clean-your-home-from-wildfire-smoke/ Science Fiction: Where does Steven go for a pick-me-up when he's down? Enter Peacock's own Twisted Metal. Thanks for the recommendation, Devon. After three episodes, Steven sees it's a decent show. It walks a fine line between being absurd and serious, but it's all still believable within the show. Steven and Ben wonder what is going on with LOKI in season 2. Like, what's up with X-5? Oh that's right, this is a TIME TRAVEL SHOW. We're all experiencing temporal whiplash. Maybe they'll tell the rest of the story at another time? For all time, always. Ben's son is not into this season, but is begrudgingly allowing us to watch LOKI instead of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Can you believe that Disney showed surprising restraint by not peppering the MCU's version of 1977 with a bunch of Star Wars posters? The late-1980s McDonalds is incredible, now Ben wants an apple pie. Remember when McDonalds had lore? The McDonalds Cinematic Universe with the Hamburgler and fry guys and all the nostalgia! Is Sylvie's manager a young Mobius? We talk even more after the break: Let's talk about Fallout Wasteland Warfare! Steven's never played the tabletop game, but he's excited about painting a Frank Horrigan figurine from it. Do you even Fallout, fool?: https://falloutfacts.com/fallout-frank-horrigan . Ben's learning to git gud noob in Elden Ring, after noping out of it half a year ago. Big thanks to JumpinProductions for their Noob's Guide for Elden Ring: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvSjDM1TnnA_lZWYp4N8hqj6IKNv3P7tc. In contrast to Elden Ring, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are power fantasies. Steven tells Ben about i-frames. The real game is timing. Giant disgustingly beautiful enemies? Run around them! Stormwind Castle has incredible detail showing ancient battles and sense of place. Is Elden Ring the game of the decade? How could we know? After A LONG TALK about Elden Ring, Ben recommends 3D Sen VR: an NES emulator that makes ye olde Nintendo games 3D diaramas and it's incredible. http://www.geodstudio.net/ We rank Batman movies, and Steven continues to sing the praises of The Batman, even over the Nolanverse. It's so good, mainly because it brings in the detective side of Batman.
We didn't get TENET 2 but we got bald Iron Man. And now with yet another rousing success from the Nolanverse expect 28 YEARS LATER as the franchise victory lap. Which could also be improved with another pairing with Florence Pugh, Mr. Peaky Blinders. But what wouldn't? What can not be improved (if you listen to the critics and not this podcast, shameful) is OPPENHEIMER. Although one host tries his best to do so by going to the only film preservation society one needs: Peacock. Enjoy!

“One of the things you do as a writer and as a filmmaker is grasp for resonant symbols and imagery without necessarily fully understanding it yourself.” This week it's time for another movie review, and our first ever Director Spotlight.

Then we review two great films, Interstellar (11:10) and Dunkirk (25:46). As always, we end with our SOTW (54:05).

The ‘Nolanverse' rolls on, as we focus on THE DARK KNIGHT. Sam's view of the film may not be as predicted, before we talk about the origins of the Joker, what it means to really be chaotic, and the young loss of a phenomenal acting talent. This Week's Media JOHN WICK (2014): Chad Stahelski, David Leitch, Keanu Reeves AMERICAN GODS (2017): Neil Gaiman, Ricky Whittle, Emily Browning Recommendations BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN (2005): Ang Lee, Heath Ledger, Jake Gyllenhaal SPECTRE (2015): Sam Mendes, Daniel Craig, Christoph Waltz HEAT (1995): Michael Mann, Al Pacino, Robert de Niro THE MAN WHO LAUGHS (1928): Paul Leni, Mary Philbin, Conrad Veidt Footnotes Rob mentions that one of his recommendations this week is a piece of German Expressionism; read more about this movement here, here and here. Speaking of which, here's that eerily Joker-esque picture of Conrad Veidt. Not much else to add this week, apart from a great piece on Heath Ledger. And this is a fun article (not on movie mistakes, despite the page's title).
We're back, after a week off, and it's the first in the ‘Nolanverse': BATMAN BEGINS. After predictably quite different opinions on the film(!), we come together to talk about fear, horror aesthetics, and how real Batman can be. This Week's Media BLUE RUIN (2013): Jeremy Saulnier, Macon Blair, Devin Ratray GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 (2017): James Gunn, Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana Recommendations 28 DAYS LATER (2002): Danny Boyle, Cillian Murphy, Naomie Harris THE BEST EXOTIC MARIGOLD HOTEL (2011): John Madden, Judi Dench, Bill Nighy THE BIG SHORT (2015): Adam McKay, Christian Bale, Steve Carell HARRY BROWN (2009): Daniel Barber, Michael Caine, Emily Mortimer Footnotes Rob mentions the visual design of the Tumbler; if high-spec car stuff is your thing, then this article will be right up your alley. This is a good introduction to the Italian giallo genre. This is a reminder of the MacGuffin trope that Rob mentions. And finally, the links Rob made between medievalism and horror made me (Sam) think about this guy, whose artwork is beautiful and horrific and intriguing and bonkers.

Michaela returns with an episode that may be a little overdue, Haunted house films. Personally, we love them. There's so many to choose from! Classic films, cult hits, even some of the newer films are outstanding. So, why did Stevil screw up so badly in his choice? I think he'll chalk it up to bad advertisement. Either way, we have at least three fantastic ghostly films to scare you with. These are our Staff Picks of the Week: Matty hit the IMAX for the first of his two staff picks, Interstellar. Christopher Nolan dazzles again in this fantastically scientific adventure film that you'll need a degree to full follow. For his other pick, Matty brings the John Carpenteresque The Purge: Anarchy, the big scale follow up to the low budget 2013 original. A synth score backing a Frank Grillo led action suspense film in a style reminiscent of Escape From New York. We love that. Michaela was on vacation! She should have to be expected to bring a staff pick! Of course, like any good movie fan, she visited a nearby Red Box and picked up Tom Cruise's sci-fi actioner Edge of Tomorrow. Or is it Live Die Repeat? Or Tom Cruises's Edge of Tomorrow? It's debatable, but the studio didn't make it easy. During the discussion before the podcast, Stevil was talking about one of the actor in his haunted house pick being cast in more American films, leading JJ to remember a film he checked out starring this actor. The Drop is a gritty drama starring Tom Hardy, Noomi Repace and featuring the last performance from James Gandolfini. Oh and there's a puppy in it too. Tom Hardy and a puppy, prepare for a world wide swoon. Stevil grazes the Nolanverse a little bit with his pick, which he strongly recommends you DON'T watch. Transcendence is a film that he was very much looking forward to but kept eluding him for one reason of another. Wally Pfister has always been a great cinematographer, but could he make a smooth transition to directing? The answer is no, no, he can't. This movie is a mess of terrible screenwriting, unoriginal ideas and completely wasted actors. And Nolan almost made this before Interstellar? Really? For the main subject of our episode on Haunted House films, our panel explains why they made their choices: "I'm suppose to do a write up for my pick for our Haunted House podcast, but I don't think I have to. That's because I picked The Shining. I shouldn't have to tell you how amazing this movie is. If you haven't seen this classic, what is wrong with you? Change That. Now. This is the king of psychological haunted house horror movies. Watch Jack Nicholson's brillant descent into madness while being directed by the great Stanley Kubrick." - @mattydub604 "I was in the mood for something spooky and decided to keep the Halloween spirit going with a Haunted House cast. In my opinion, one of the best haunted house movies ever made is Poltergeist, so I just had to bring it. I love this movie. It is one of the first horror films I saw as a child, and it remains a solid favourite. The film is packed full of genuinely creepy moments, and I think it stands up as a horror classic to this day." - @avidcinephile "When you think "haunted house movies" a lot of the classics come to mind. I wanted to bring something a little more off the beaten path with this genre. The 2007 Spanish masterpiece, The Orphanage, I thought would be a perfect pick. With its wonderful performance, genuinely eerie feel, and an ending that, if you have any soul whatsoever, will leave you totaled, The Orphanage goes down as one of my favorite films in the past decade." - @hesthejage "I feel like this episode is going to haunt me for the rest of my days and I know by the subject matter it's going to sound like I'm punning, but I'm not. My co-hosts won't let me forget this one, because, yes, I screwed up. I was duped by the back cover of my recently bought copy of Left Bank, a disturbing little Cronenbergian body horror film out of Denmark. Am I saying it's terrible? No, but it's not fantastic either, bottom line is it was the wrong choice for this cast. Should have stuck with my original choice...." - @thestevildead What is the scariest haunted house movie in your opinion? Do you or did you enjoy our picks?
