76 – Batman (1989)

March 1, 2018 by GeekSquatch Leave a Comment

Batman The movie that started the superhero movie phenomenon is our topic of this week – Batman 1989. It may not have held up so well, but there were a lot of things we forgot about this film! From the odd casting issues to the decade long development and twelve different scripts it’s a wonder this movie ever got made, but it’s legacy can be felt even today. @TopherNunes joins us as we blab about the Bat.
