There’s arguably no superhero in existence that has been reimagined, redefined, or reinterpreted more than Batman. No matter how many times he’s been rebooted, audiences are always willing to come back to Gotham City’s greatest defender. With so much Bat content out there, there’s plenty to dissect, analyze, and of course, rank! This podcast is dedicated to a surgical evaluation of Batman’s history, with a focus on ranking several topics in the world of Batman, among other classic Bat themes and characters.
Join hosts Daniel Cohen, Pop Break’s former Film Editor, and Kris Ingersoll, co-host of the Media/Lit podcast, as they bring on several guests every month to share their passion for the one and only Dark Knight. From Adam West to Robert Pattinson, no bat stone will be left unturned. Bottom-line: If you’re a Batman fan, this is required listening.
On this month’s podcast, we dive back into the DCU and the second live action film in James Gunn’s universe – Supergirl. It’s no secret this movie has been a massive disappointment from a box office perspective. That is certainly a topic of discussion in this podcast, but more importantly…how did we like the movie?
Alex Marcus, Podcasting Director of the Pop Break, returns once again as the Bat Crew review this movie in detail, spoilers and all! And we’ll just tell you right now, it’s two against one! Did two people like it, and one disliked it, or was it the other way around? And who was on which side!
We review this movie in depth: the performances. The villain. The story. The filmmaking. Where did it go wrong? Where it went right. What does this mean for the DCU going forward? And what will its impact be on the superhero genre (you knew we had to dive into the superhero movie discussion!).
We recorded this podcast the weekend Supergirl came out, and while it’s certainly losing relevance by the day, we hope you'll enjoy this spirited discussion about the film!
