About this listen

Spencer and Ryan are going back to 1992 to watch the Christmas spirit of Gotham in Batman Returns. It has been a good while since both of us have watched this film but it was a major part of our youth in the 90s. The film that almost ruined the fast food tie ins with how dark they took some stuff. That in hindsight is really more campy, almost like a gothic Batman 66 style.


Starring Michael Keaton as Batman, Danny Devito as the Penguin, Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman, and Christopher Walken as a new character, Max Schreck. Tim Burton's second run at a Batman film and WB let him go full ham with this one and for some reason they were surprised at what they got. This movie almost feels first and foremost a Tim Burton movie that just happens to have Batman characters in it. A lot of stuff you just didn't question in the 90s but nowadays after a lot more Batman comics being read, there is some real interesting and odd choices made here. That's not saying the movie still isn't enjoyable, you just need to go into it with a real open mind. Especially if you really are deep into Batman lore.


Join us as we break it all down in this spoiler-filled discussion of nostalgia and Bat fun! Then get sidetracked as usual with other movies, games, comics, and life stories. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more deep dives into fascinating films.
