there are going to be 14 episodes this season

culminating in a very exciting live stream
2:01
episode. Every time you say very exciting, because
2:03
I'm also like, what are we doing? I
2:05
actually don't know. So I'm like, I'm
2:07
like, I'm like really pushing it, but I'm like, I don't
2:09
know. I don't know either. I know
2:11
we've been told, again, our memories are
2:13
not amazing, but okay, we'll cover as
2:16
much as we can get to, but this is an
2:18
overview of the franchise. We can't get to everything. We
2:20
certainly can't. There's so much Batman. So
2:22
we're gonna discuss today our first animated
2:24
movie of the season, the
2:27
1993 Batman Mask of the Phantasm
2:29
starring Kevin Conroy. Yup. Okay. So
2:32
Mask of the Phantasm is available
2:34
with a subscription to Mac's Hulu
2:36
Prime video. You can watch it
2:38
for a fee on Apple TV
2:40
or Google Play or Voodoo. We're
2:42
gonna spoil it. Yeah, obviously. So
2:45
we're so excited for our guests
2:47
today, the Doughboys. Nick Weiger
2:49
is a comedian, writer and producer of shows like
2:51
At Midnight, I Love You America and co-host
2:53
the podcast, How Did This Get Played? Mike Mitchell
2:56
is a comedian, writer and actor who has appeared
2:58
in Love and The Tomorrow War and
3:00
you were really good in that. You were. They come
3:02
together to eat and be funny on the
3:04
Headgum podcast, Doughboys, which I'm a super fan
3:06
of. It's a great podcast. Welcome back, you
3:08
guys. Thanks for being here. Thank you for having us.
3:10
Thank you for having us. It was a true treat. I'm
3:13
very, I mean, we'll
3:15
get it. I'm just gonna say like Anya
3:18
told me what you were doing for the,
3:20
you were doing Batman, told me the topic. And
3:22
I immediately said, are you doing Mask of
3:24
the Phantasm? And I was like
3:26
a little bit of like a little shit eating grin. And
3:28
she was, I think, gilted into saying like, do you want
3:30
to guest on it? So you made
3:32
this happen. I kind of made this happen. And then she was like,
3:34
you too, Mitch. I was like, what the fuck? I
3:37
gotta do this too? Yup.
3:41
You're a pair. I'm happy to
3:43
see you two, but I've never. You have no
3:45
connection to this film. I have no connection to
3:47
the film. I never have even seen it until
3:49
last night. But you're my friend, you're my good
3:51
friend. And I thought it would be like, this
3:53
is the way you can watch that movie and we
3:56
can get a fresh take. Yeah. And you don't do
3:58
anything without him. That's true. That's very true. We
4:00
don't think it is helpful. You can be like I can't
4:02
do if Nick can't do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It is
4:05
good. Oh, that is nice. It gets you out of self.
4:07
Yeah. Oh, he said he couldn't, so...
4:09
So, wait. Nick, are you a Batman head? Well,
4:11
okay. I like Batman a lot. I'm
4:13
not like a Batman super freak, but
4:16
this is my favorite Batman movie. I
4:18
think this is this movie and then... This
4:20
is her favorite Batman out of all of
4:23
them? Favorite Batman? You like it more than
4:25
Batman Returns, which so far is my favorite? Batman Returns
4:27
is great. Also another good one. That's not
4:29
even the hottest it takes. There are a lot
4:31
of Batman fans who say this is the apex
4:34
of Batman cinematically. That's like, wow. This
4:36
is the Batman version. A lot
4:38
of that is affinity for Kevin Conroy, who you mentioned,
4:40
who is the voice of Batman, who is like, I
4:42
think, the best Batman. And he passed away last year,
4:45
right? Fairly recently, yeah. I
4:47
remember reading that and he was fantastic. That's
4:49
interesting. Is that a big part of why
4:51
people love this one so much because it's
4:53
him? I think there's a there's a there's a
4:56
there's a fandom for Batman the Animated Series, which
4:58
is like the movie of the animated series, which
5:00
a lot of people love. Which
5:02
I did watch, by the way. You also watched it.
5:05
I watched it, yeah. And I watched it as a kid and I
5:07
love that series and I think that's like, again, a great representation of
5:09
Batman. I think there's also a little
5:11
bit of the like, hmm, it's my,
5:13
oh, my favorite is Batman Mask of the Phantasm. Like
5:15
that is my favorite, but I think there's a little
5:18
bit of the like, like, what? I'm a true fan,
5:20
so I have a little bit of an off the
5:22
beat. A bit of sophistication? Yes, exactly. Yes, yes,
5:24
yes. Yeah. This is straight to DVD. Is that
5:26
what? No, this was released theatrically. Really? What?
5:29
This was a real what? They're home? This was in
5:31
the theater? Well, not enough people. It
5:33
kind of bumped. But they had this was they were going to
5:35
be, I think, I think it was going to be a two
5:37
or three part episode. And then they were like, well, let's make
5:39
this a direct to video movie. And
5:42
then they were like, you know what? Let's release it
5:44
theatrically. And it wasn't directed DVD because it was pre
5:46
DVD. In fact, I own the VHS of this movie.
5:49
I feel that it was wrong to put it in theaters. I agree, too. It
5:52
doesn't feel like it would be. Well,
5:54
it's like the 1966 Movie
5:56
in between the first and second season. They
5:58
Like released that in theaters. It or the that
6:00
didn't do well regular. Expert level and you and
6:02
I guess is that the I I know. So
6:05
much as organ music c. Sex Think Batman.
6:07
He's a Sicilian. It's are you that head
6:10
or you our grammar quite a bit. I
6:12

6:15
But. I loved the in America had. Mobile
6:18

6:39

7:12

7:14
her on your wall in your bedroom. Sex
7:16
Couples describes it was a script fab. I
7:18
would use Rak one. I went on Strike
7:20
Zone. Or
7:23
odds are as I say, I mean
7:25
same that so far. as with all.
7:27
My life with this is. What
7:31
is why? is? So.
7:37
Why? Are
7:39
the only ones which is it had a donkey. We
7:42
talked about this would threaten sort of become human
7:44
I know that that was like a plot of
7:46
the said he to the see their homes whom
7:48
an insect to i know guys out to be
7:50
hims human insect to and then he realizes like
7:52

7:54
at. What is human track look like. ah
7:56
like miss honestly about it looks like a
7:58
handsome big Yeah, he looks like Mitch. I
8:01
don't wanna see, I don't like when, Like
8:03
when the beast is a man, it's like disgusting. It's
8:06
like, I'm gonna charge you to the beast now. Don't
8:08
change, like don't be a guy. A
8:11
blonde guy, I was like, you're not
8:13
blonde. Kind of too pretty. Yeah, sure.
8:16
Yeah, pull up a human track. We
8:18
gotta see. I'm afraid of
8:21
what will come up. Something deformed him. Oh,
8:23
he actually is kinda hot. Yeah,
8:25
okay, yeah, he can get it. All right, nevermind.
8:27
And the ladies love him. He's like a little too much.
8:29
I take back what I said though. And maybe
8:31
the teeth I don't love. If it was between
8:33
him and monster Shrek, which one are
8:36
you? Ooh, monster Shrek. I take the guy. There's
8:38
Shrek with the human body and the Shrek head
8:40
there. Well, that is a thing for someone. Now
8:42
that's what I want. That's both worlds. He's
8:45
best at both worlds. Okay,
8:47
well that's- Fiora turns into a Shrek, she
8:49
never, She turns into, that is her real
8:51
form. She was a Shrek all along. A
8:53
lady, yeah. She was a lady who then
8:56
turned into a Shrek. Oh, what?
8:59
Yeah, he rescues her, they kiss, and
9:02
then she turns into a Shrek. Yeah, wouldn't you be like, you
9:04
turn me into a monster and be mad? But they
9:06
look alike, so it's like how couples- Look,
9:08
I don't think I got the message of the story.
9:10
I knew this was gonna happen when I asked you
9:12
if you wanna do a show with me, to turn
9:14
into a fucking Shrek newcomer. You're gonna talk about Batman,
9:16
I'm talking Shrek 2. All right, to answer
9:18
the question, I am a bit of
9:20
a bad head. I watched the animated series. I
9:23
never saw this movie because my parents were probably
9:25
like, no, we're not gonna go take you to
9:27
a 75-minute animated movie. So I didn't
9:29
see this, I did not see this in theaters. I
9:31
didn't see this in theaters either. In fact, I
9:34
didn't see this until I was out on a home video. Not many
9:36
people saw this in theaters. In fact, I don't think I even
9:38
knew it had a theatrical run at the time. I mean, we'll
9:40
get into all of it, but it's a
9:42
pretty slow vibe to this. It's so slow.
9:44
It's like there's a second between each line.
9:46
Yes, all of the Batman things I have watched,
9:49
the second half of the movies seem good.
9:53
And I'm like, why can't the first half be interesting?
9:56
This one, well, I really didn't see the
9:58
twist coming, but I guess I'm dumb. You're
10:00
not dumb. You're not dumb. It's well
10:02
written. Yeah, it's well done. Yeah, you're not um,
10:04
that's why I didn't know It was so
10:06
well done. Yeah, so okay. Let's
10:09
just talk about your DC comic connection Do
10:11
you care about other things besides Batman or
10:13
is it kind of just like you're you're
10:15
dipping your toe here and there? I like
10:17
the DC verse. I like I like DC
10:19
and I like and I think I Lean
10:23
towards DC movies then I also
10:25
have chocolate on my shirt Just I want to point
10:27
out in case people see it. All right. Um, it
10:29
doesn't look like chocolate It
10:31
looks like makeup or something. Yeah, let's see
10:34
your makeup came. I smeared on you.
10:36
No chocolate It
10:38
was a kind bar. We discussed it was a
10:40
part of a kind bar. It's fine. Chocolate. That's
10:42
not fun That's what I said. Yeah healthy
10:44
chocolate. It's actually really healthy. Yeah, I ate
10:49
one right before bed We
10:52
like video this show oh But
10:55
don't we go a little in the clip, but you know,
10:57
why did you tell Mitch that I really
10:59
enjoyed him looking at the camera Got
11:07
chocolate on here. Um,
11:09
I don't care I
11:17
Was a DCM and I love spider-man spider-man
11:20
spider-man and x-men were both big for me
11:22
So a little little of the Marvel. Well,
11:24
what's your favorite DC person Batman?
11:26
Okay, we went through this It's
11:29
Batman Superman By
11:32
Wonder Woman Wonder Woman Aquaman,
11:35
but it was in there Spider-man
11:37
is not spider-man is Marvel. Are there black
11:40
people in DC? Yeah. Yeah,
11:42
I think it who specifically
11:47
Yeah Which
11:49
guy in the in Batman or Batman returns
11:51
this one was it where he's he's not
11:53
the mayor or he's something I can't remember
11:55
Oh two faces played by in
11:58
in the first Batman's is played by the the
12:00
great Billy Dee Williams. Right. Yeah.
12:03
Jinks. Mm. Okay, and then
12:06
are you more of a DC or Marvel guy? See, here's
12:08
the thing, I'm not much of a comics guy. I
12:10
really like, my fandom of Batman
12:12
is through the movies and TV shows. I had to look
12:14
down and see what this was. I didn't know if it
12:16
was a comic related to that. Yeah, what is it? No,
12:18
this is Bobby Bacala from The Soprano. Nice. Yeah.
12:21
It's a great shirt, really good. God
12:23
bless you. Yeah, so I
12:26
never, like I read some of the, I
12:28
noticed some of the bigger, well known Batmans, like
12:33
the, what was it, The
12:35
Dark Knight Returns, or like Year One, but it's
12:37
not like, I had this comprehensive
12:39
knowledge of the character. What's Year One? Okay,
12:41
so Year One is partially adapted in this
12:44
movie, and it's like, this was like Batman
12:46
starting off. It was like his first go
12:48
at it. And so when he's got the
12:50
shitty suit, he doesn't have the actual Batman
12:52
cowl, and
12:54
he's just trying to figure it out. That's like kinda Year
12:56
One shit. I like cowl.
12:58
Year One, I thought about that caveman movie.
13:02
Yeah. That was a comic, dude. That was
13:04
also a comic. He's done
13:06
Batman. All right, well let's
13:09
give our quick thoughts. I think it's kinda clear where we
13:11
stand before we get into the whole movie,
13:14
Nicole. This movie was awful, okay? Wow.
13:17
I don't think I can be convinced
13:19
otherwise. It was confusing, it
13:21
was slow. They had a
13:23
black character say, you can't say the M
13:25
word to him. What a wild
13:28
choice. You didn't even see that. It's when
13:30
the women were together, and I was like, this is nuts.
13:33
That's crazy. I wrote it down, and I was
13:35
afraid to even, I was like, it's so weird
13:37
that I was afraid to bring it up. But
13:39
I was watching, I was like, this is weird,
13:42
right? It was so bizarre. What was the M
13:44
word? Marriage. Marriage. And then another lady's like,
13:46
what about the I word? And they're
13:48
like, what? And she's like, engagement. And
13:50
I put it out. This
13:52
lady needs help. Wait, this is a
13:54
thing, because I had subtitles on, and was
13:57
staring at the TV, never looking away, and I don't know
13:59
what you're talking about. I'm like, so
14:01
this is the sequence where
14:04
he's having a gala and he's got
14:06
two babes on his arm. Oh, right,
14:08
right, right. I was actually talking
14:11
during that because I was like, is
14:13
Betty and Veronica from DC? Because these look like
14:15
Betty and Veronica. And Michael's like, I don't know. And I
14:17
was like, okay. Wait, are they DC? I don't know. I
14:20
think they're Archie comics. They're Archie comics. But
14:23
there's some weird crossover with Archie. That's why
14:25
I think there's a DC crossover. I
14:27
vaguely feel like that on the comic
14:30
book or something. Yeah, they're directly referenced here.
14:32
If it may be a homage. I thought
14:34
they looked like them. So I talked directly
14:36
over those lines. It would be funny if
14:39
Archie came to the Batman's party, Bruce Wayne's
14:41
party. Yeah, I like a mashup. All
14:44
right, well, let's take a quick break. Oh, wait, no, we didn't
14:46
hear it. Nick, you obviously love it. And I had a hard
14:48
time. And you've
14:51
had such an open mind this whole time. I really
14:53
have. And I've enjoyed everything up till
14:55
now. And I was excited because it
14:57
was what, 70 minutes? That
15:00
got us really excited. Watching it, it felt like eight
15:02
hours. Yeah. Wow. Yeah.
15:05
It's I didn't my first watch. I didn't love
15:07
it, I guess is my thought on it. But
15:10
we'll get into it. Okay, let's take a
15:12
break. We'll be back with our Batman summary
15:14
where we will hear every single thing that
15:16
happens in this. We both think that
15:18
the cameras are rolling. I mean, I glance at them. It's hard not to
15:20
look at that. Yeah, because there's camera. Yeah. And
15:22
we're like, and we're performers. And we're like, oh, yeah. And
15:25
we're like, oh. Hey, everybody. Are

It's a new year, it's time for some
16:39
changes, I'm sure your New Year's resolution list
16:43
is, you know, maybe already getting away from
16:45
you. This is a way to stay on
16:47
top of one of the things that you
16:49
want to do, maybe eat healthier, cook more,
16:51
cook less, not have to cook. That's something
16:53
I'm interested in because I really
16:55

18:44
we're back. Batman, Mask of
18:46
the Phantasm was released December
18:48
20th, Christmas Day? Christmas Day!
18:50
Who's leaving their home? Is
18:52
it a bold choice on
18:55
Christmas Day to move presents? Or do
18:57
they throw things there that they think won't do?
18:59
I mean like what's the... They're big Christmas
19:01
Day releases. I feel like that's always like
19:03
here's a big, like we're gonna try a
19:05
big swing on Christmas. I think like that
19:08
was a bad idea with this movie.
19:10
Yeah. Again, yeah, it's
19:13
just like, I don't know
19:15
when you released this movie. Honestly, I think maybe just
19:17
in 1993 you just don't release it theatrically. Yeah, I
19:19
think that's the problem. But I also
19:21
think Summer would be better for them. I think Summer would have
19:23
been better. This is written by Alan, Paul, Martin
19:26
and Michael. Okay, no last name. The
19:29
guy directed by Eric
19:32
Radomski and Bruce
19:34
Timm. Okay, so thank you again
19:36
to the Batman fandom wiki for help with
19:38
this summary. We love you
19:40
guys. We love you. They're gonna be
19:43
so mad. They used
19:45
our info against us.
19:47
Like on this episode.
19:51
So when Batman, Ken Conroy? Was that
19:53
what it was? Kevin Conroy. Okay, when
19:55
Batman, Ken Conroy busts the counterfeiting
19:57
operation. Gangster, Chuckie.
20:00
Kevin. Is it Kevin? It's Kevin.
20:03
It says Ken. Exactly. Yeah.
20:06
I was going to say Batman fandom wiki. Yeah, yeah.
20:08
That's their type of. You guys. It's
20:10
so funny because you were like, Ken Conroy. Is it
20:12
Kevin? And then Liger was like, yes, you
20:14
would. Ken Conroy. I said Ken?
20:16
I didn't know that. Oh, I didn't even hear myself.
20:18
I didn't get why you guys laugh. That's so funny.
20:20
Okay. Okay. When
20:23
Batman, Kevin Conroy, busts a
20:25
counterfeiting operation, gangster, Chucky Soul,
20:27
Dick Miller, attempts to make
20:29
his getaway on wheels from a high
20:31
rise parking garage. Chucky is confronted
20:34
by a figure in a cape, which he assumes to
20:36
be Batman. It is not. Soul
20:38
tries to run down the threat with his car,
20:40
smashes through the wall of the parking structure and
20:42
crashes into an adjoining building, dying on impact. We
20:45
assume, I guess. Witnesses jumped to the
20:47
conclusion that the culprit is Batman. Fueling
20:49
the anti-bat bias is councilman Arthur
20:51
Reeves, played by Hart Buckner. Reeves
20:54
is contacted by an old friend, Andrea
20:56
Beaumont, Dana Delaney, who is heading into
20:58
Gotham City. Now, Andrea is very hot.
21:01
Yeah. Cartoon character is
21:03
very, very big. Very hot. It's
21:05
got, and also like, you know, a big part of what
21:07
I like about Batman, the animated series in this movie is
21:09
I kind of got this like retro art
21:12
deco aesthetic. I like that. Is
21:14
this sexy? Well, no, but this
21:16
movie is sexy. His ass is sexy, buzzed.
21:19
This movie is sexy. This movie is horny.
21:21
It is. And she's like in her,
21:23
in this like sort of 50s look, she's got like those
21:25
50s pointy boobs. Pointy
21:27
boobs. A very specific. Sweater girls, as
21:30
they, as they call it. Oh
21:32
yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's
21:34
sweater girls. There was a term in the 19, it was like a,
21:36
was it a 40s or even a 30s thing? Sweater
21:39
girls and they would wear like, it's like
21:41
when they had big busts. Oh, and it
21:43
would be like buttoned right under the chin
21:45
and then like. They're their pointy colors. They
21:47
were just like, yeah, they're sweater girls. Yeah.
21:50
Tell me out here on it. It's real. No,
21:53
I'm sweater girls. No, you're right. It's a 40s.
21:56
It's a 40s thing. Okay. It's
21:58
like they would wear like tight sweaters. Yeah,
22:00
yeah, yeah. Sounds like a good sign of a
22:02
sweaty girl. I wish I
22:04
lived in the 40s. You got the gum? You
22:08
getting to wear any best sweater girls? She
22:10
is a... Andy as they call her
22:12
is a babe, right? Andy as you call her? As
22:15
Batman calls her. Okay. She's a
22:17
babe. Yeah. So Batman...
22:20
Oh, there we go. There's a sweater girl. Oh,
22:22
yeah. That's hot. It makes sense. But
22:24
then I think what confuses me a little bit is
22:26
once you take the bra off, you don't have pointy
22:28
boobs anymore. No, then you're disappointed. You're like, why are
22:30
these round? Why are they not pointy and hard? So
22:33
Batman... I'm always questioning that. Yeah, I
22:35
know. Hey, Batman, who's asking her? So,
22:41
Arthur Reeves asks Andrea whether she's planning on
22:43
looking up her old friend, Bruce Wayne. Dropping
22:46
the In Flight magazine with Bruce on the
22:48
cover, she calls the relationship ancient history but
22:50
a flashback tells otherwise. Well, yeah.
22:52
The flash question is about... That's so
22:54
hard. I have questions about timeline. So are we...
22:57
Yes. That's a huge question.
22:59
Yeah. Are they in college? Well,
23:02
during the flashback? Yeah. Yeah.
23:05
Exactly. I think they're like...
23:07
It's just early life. I don't know if it's
23:10
specifically college. Because she's like, I see him on
23:12
campus. Yeah, she said campus at one point, but
23:14
Bruce seems past college. And also
23:16
the flashbacks seem like they're 40 years ago.
23:20
There's one gangster who now in the present
23:22
day is like, I'm old and played by
23:24
Abe Bogota. And then the flashbacks... But they
23:26
don't make... He's like a young man, so
23:28
I don't... Andrea and Batman look
23:30
younger. No, not at all. Yeah. It
23:33
was like 20 years passage of time or so, something like that.
23:35
20 years? Yeah. So
23:37
Batman has 40 in this? Yeah, I mean, I always
23:39
thought this was like an older Batman. The animated series
23:41
Batman seems a little bit more world weary. Like he's
23:44
doing some shit, you know? But 40? To
23:47
start fighting crime? And like, why can't
23:49
he get a... Oh, sorry. In
23:51
the flashback, he's not 40. Yeah, he's not 40 in the flashback. Oh,
23:53
God. Yeah. Christ. Yeah,
23:56
he has like a midlife crisis. Okay,
24:02
while visiting his parents grave, a young
24:04
Bruce Wayne overheals overhears a young Andrea.
24:06
Is it Andrea or Andrea? No,
24:09
but they said Andrea. There was a very specific
24:11
way. I really was going, why
24:13
is it like that? I never hear that name.
24:15
Andrea. Everyone said it weird. That weird,
24:17
specific. Very specific. She was
24:20
visiting her mother's grave, talking to
24:22
her as though she was still alive. The two
24:24
strike up a conversation and sparks fly, because that's
24:26
where I hit on people. And also he kept
24:28
being like, who are you talking to? She's clearly
24:31
talking to a grave. To a grave, yeah. What
24:33
don't you get? You just did the same
24:36
thing around that grave. She's
24:38
like, she simply can't be doing what I'm doing. And
24:41
then she's like, no, I heard my name. And it's like,
24:43
she's talking about you to the grave. Yeah. But
24:45
that was also weird to be like, Bruce Wayne
24:47
just said hello to me. It's like, you don't
24:49
have to talk to the grave that much. And
24:51
also the grave knows he did, if they hear
24:54
you. That
24:58
night, Bruce dons a ski mask and sworts
25:00
a group of thieves hijacking a truck of
25:02
goods. The next morning, Bruce is
25:05
recuperating and practicing his jujitsu on the lawn.
25:07
That was so lame, I found it. It was so lame. He's
25:09
like, I'm doing jujitsu. It's
25:11
Napoleon Dynamitey. It was. She's
25:13
like, what are you doing? And he's like, jujitsu. And then
25:15
like, not paying attention to her. I know.
25:17
It's just a dork. When she fucking gets him. She
25:19
fucking turns the table. I like that part. She flits
25:21
his ass. That's a clue of like, hmm, maybe there's
25:23
more to her than what's on. Yeah.
25:25
And then in fact, she does that
25:27
same throw as the fucking phantasm. Oh,
25:30
does she? I wasn't paying that part. By the
25:32
way, I was at my dad's grade talking.
25:35
That's how Weiger and I came up. She's like,
25:37
who are you talking to? I'm talking to this
25:39
guy. You're like, I wish I could eat fast food
25:41
and get paid for it. What'd you say? Who
25:43
are you talking to? Me? No, I was
25:45
talking to my dad in his grave. Oh, I thought you were
25:47
talking to me. Well,
25:49
this guy just came over and talked to me. So,
25:57
Andres visits. And to
25:59
his surprise, she shows up. A few moves of her
26:01
own laughing he kisses her. This
26:03
is funny Alfred truly was like drinks.
26:06
Never mind So
26:09
in unlike what Batman's up to with women
26:11
like so And
26:15
you're like a bat or the man to fly
26:18
which one of you is on the
26:20
ultimate wingman No
26:23
pun intended he's a creep he's like I'll
26:25
be leaving now and then he comes back
26:30
He comes back. He's like intentionally coming in
26:32
while he thinks they're gonna be fucking yeah
26:34
He wants to see something. I mean we can
26:36
assume Alfred's not getting any right like no, he's
26:38
a butler He's always check every
26:40
way. I don't call Jack. I'm
26:43
getting some yeah Have
26:54
you talked about on the podcast while we're in
26:56
horny country Have you talked
26:58
about on this on the Batman series yet
27:00
how Batman does not eat pussy like
27:03
that's a thing The DC DC had
27:05
made it a rule that Batman does
27:07
not perform oral sex So this is
27:09
a thing that getting blowjobs like what are
27:12
we even see? Yeah,
27:15
what happened to you see what happened to Michael
27:17
Douglas So
27:23
here's what happened they there's a Harley Quinn
27:25
show that's on that was on HBO man
27:28
That's a cartoon right? That's a yeah that's an
27:30
animated series and Justin Halpern
27:32
is one of the people who made it had
27:34
talked about in an interview and note he got
27:36
from the network because they had a a
27:38
lot a reference in it that was about
27:40
in the in a script that was about
27:43
Batman going down on Catwoman and DC
27:45
like came back hard on them was like
27:47
you have to take that out of Batman
27:50
does not perform oral sex like you cannot
27:52
say that about this character Can
27:54
he do that can they say he had sex with
27:56
her can they say they can be a little bit
27:59
more they can be? a little bit more vague
28:01
I guess but they can't say that Batman like
28:03
canonically Batman does not eat pussy That's like an
28:05
easy thing. That's all lame. So
28:07
Batman just doesn't care about women's
28:09
pleasure? Yeah. I guess not. It's
28:12
also with that mask. It's like the one thing
28:14
he could do. Yeah. Yeah, truly. His mouth is
28:16
so red already. Yeah. Yeah. Ready
28:18
and open for it? I don't know. I feel like
28:20
the rest of it's rubber, right? Yeah. And his nose
28:22
is protected, you know, if he doesn't want to get the nose up in
28:24
there. Yeah. Maybe he's allowed to eat ass. Oh.
28:27
Yeah, he does do that. I don't
28:29
know why. I would even live it
28:32
if a man bat would only eat
28:34
my ass. If you're with a billionaire
28:36
bat guy who literally like fights crime
28:38
and has like six pack hot
28:41
dude and he's like everything is like basically
28:43
perfect about him and he doesn't eat pussy.
28:46
Yeah, it's over. It's over. It's like
28:48
they murder but I can't lick a pussy. Okay. What?
28:50
But he does eat ass. But it's Alfred. Which
28:53
is even weird. He does only eat Alfred's
28:55
ass. Only Alfred's ass and that's why he
28:57
stays around. So wait, your Google alert went
28:59
off when fucking the news broke? This
29:01
is in terms of Batman eats pussy. First off, I
29:03
know this didn't help her and so the part of
29:05
the way I heard about this but it wasn't an
29:08
interview and this was a fairly big thing and actually
29:10
Zack Snyder who directed a couple of Batman movies that
29:12
you're going to cover reacted to
29:14
this by commissioning an artist to draw
29:16
a picture of Batman going down on
29:18
Catwoman. That's awesome. Can we see the hell?
29:20
We can probably find that. Google, Google, we
29:22
gotta see it. Zack Snyder, Catwoman, Conalingus. I'm
29:24
not sure what you searched for. I
29:26
feel like Conalingus is going to be... No,
29:30
Catwoman, not Batwoman. Batman. There's a
29:32
Batwoman? Catwoman. Eating
29:34
pussy? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's try eating pussy.
29:37
We'll get to it, right? Yeah. Here
29:39
we go. Oh, that's a really hot
29:42
image. Honestly, Batman should eat
29:45
pussy. That's
29:47
actually really awesome. That's
29:50
so hot. His caption is canon.
29:52
That's funny. Pretty funny. That's
29:54
funny. Pretty funny. Zack
29:56
Snyder's pretty good. You gotta go find that out soon. Look, I
29:59
don't know. about anything so
30:01
I think that's funny and that's all
30:03
I know that's great wait which one's
30:05
the huge direct? Batman V Superman Dawn of
30:07
Justice and then there's the I don't know if
30:09
you're gonna do Justice League but there's a Snyder
30:12
cut of the Justice League I know those terms
30:14
I know those terms too I've seen them on Twitter
30:16
yeah who's his Batman Ben
30:19
Affleck oh hey after seeing that picture
30:22
I'm gonna be getting some tonight from
30:26
that little hand so
30:28
back to our film to
30:32
jerk off I was adding to your
30:35
joke I
30:37
was so confused that you said my hand was little
30:39
I was like a little hand my
30:44
hand's little I mean I have
30:46
a little hand I don't know I don't think you got
30:48
pretty big I think they're proportionate okay
30:51
so let's just talk about what's important you
30:53
okay? Yeah fine where were we?
30:55
Hold your hands next to your hog what looks so
30:58
little? Yeah pull out your dick let's see what your
31:00
hands look like yeah that'll get us the perspective okay
31:03
so I just want to quickly say no
31:05
within like literally talking to this lady for
31:07
six minutes most
31:10
of which was cemetery talking then doing
31:12
jiu-jitsu he's kissing her on the ground
31:14
it's very strange. That's kind of how it
31:17
goes with him though I feel like he
31:19
like he gets pretty quick with these ladies
31:21
like it's like Kim basing her we had
31:23
even the cat woman cat woman yeah it's
31:25
pretty quick also horny it's a little horny
31:27
I know I'm fine with that part me
31:30
too I think this is paced kind of like
31:33
a TV show so it's like kind of things
31:35
happen a little bit quickly a little bit shorthand
31:37
but she does like mention this is the second
31:39
time she's like right it's very specific but she
31:41
comes in she's like you haven't called like
31:43
she's kind of you know setting up
31:46
that she's interested yeah literally the only reason for
31:48
her to kiss him is because he like
31:51
violently turned the trip on her to like you
31:53
quit and then she I don't know why I
31:56
don't know what he did for her to
31:58
like him yeah right I
32:00
know fucking Bruce Wayne a billionaire You
32:04
have money and you knock me down kiss me.
32:06

32:08
have money and you knock me down kiss me

32:49
the grave He was standing near and realizes who
32:51
Batman is now She puts it together really fast
32:53
very sounds like every woman figures out that he's
32:55
him Right like they always do is
32:57
that's what's that part of it? That's
32:59
why you can't get too close to anyone Yeah, but then they
33:02
know and then they are not it's like you have to keep
33:04
someone close if they figured it out I'm like then you better
33:06
marry that person now they know Yeah, I want
33:08
to do that but then they're gonna go out in the world
33:10
and tell their friend like he's Believe
33:12
you. Yeah, it's almost like my
33:14
boyfriend Batman. They'd be like no One
33:20
thing I do really like in this movie,
33:22
it's got like one of my favorite Batman
33:25
Like archetypes which is the random
33:27
goon who goes it's the bat.
33:30
It's got a lot of that It's got a
33:32
lot of like random guys be like I ain't
33:34
afraid of the bat. Oh, no the bat I
33:36
didn't notice that they call them the
33:39
battle. I love that kind of almost
33:41
disparaging like it's kind of like Yeah,
33:44
people are way too afraid of the
33:46
bat costume too though because he puts
33:49
it on and at one point Alfred
33:51
is like Oh, he's like scared. I
33:53
was not scared It's not that scary
33:55
if that guy walked in here, I'd be
33:57
scared right now. No, no what he became
34:00
But I'd be scared for like active shooter You'd
34:03
be afraid that he was a murderer I
34:06
thought I was driving in Chicago this summer along
34:09
the lake and just there's this guy dressed fully
34:11
as the Joker just sitting by The like on
34:13
the fucking edge of the highway or right by
34:15
the lake and I was like, that's
34:18
the scariest shit I've ever had that's a
34:20
man just sitting with a Joker makeup on
34:22
just looking at the water. I'm like the
34:24
fuck happened to you What's going on? I'm
34:26
scared. I mean that's scary What if Mike
34:28
like came downstairs in a full Batman costume
34:30
was like, I mean divorce Thank
34:41
you, okay. Well,
34:43
why should I be bad? Yeah I'd
34:47
be great buying
34:49
on Reeves and Andrea Batman has another flashback
34:52
Bruce and Andrea are dating and
34:55
toward the Gotham Gotham World's Fair Andrea takes
34:58
him to meet her father Carl
35:00
Bumont Stacy teach teach.
35:03
Oh, yeah, Stacy teach. Who is that?
35:05
Yeah, he's a character actor Yeah,
35:07
I can't think of a specific
35:10
reference in something. Mm-hmm You've
35:12
got a great look. He's got like a classic
35:15
He's been
35:18
in a bunch of you got a ton of
35:21
stuff a high-powered Gotham businessman Bruce
35:23
also meets young Reeves a
35:25
lawyer in Bumont's company They're
35:27
meeting is crashed by mobsters
35:29
Salvatore's A
35:37
Like that technique so like as if we won't notice Later
35:46
Bruce and Andrea see a street merchant harassed by
35:48
a gang with his training He easily knocks out
35:51
two of the gang but becomes distracted by
35:53
Andrea allowing the gang to escape with the money
35:56
Batman realizes Solon Bronsky were partners
35:58
in several joint dummy corporations run
36:00
by Velestra. In another flashback, Bruce proposes to
36:03
Andrea and they're interrupted by a swarm of
36:05
bats erupting from a hole in the ground
36:07
by the manor. I liked the ring. I
36:09
thought the ring that he proposed with was a
36:11
beautiful diamond. Bruce, it looks like a
36:14
ring pop. Bruce drops Andrea off
36:16
at her home to tell her father the good
36:18
news. Bruce and Velestra's chauffeur catch a
36:20
quick glimpse of each other before Bruce
36:22
leaves. The next morning, Bruce climbs up
36:24
from exploring the cave under the manor. Alfred
36:27
tells Bruce that Andrea returned to his ring saying
36:29
she has to leave. Heartbroken, Bruce
36:31
dons the mask of Batman for the
36:33
first time. Alfred serves as the only
36:35
witness. Batman's war on crime
36:37
begins. So I was always
36:39
told, always told, the last couple episodes
36:41
were like he became Batman because
36:44
his parents died. This is saying he becomes
36:46
Batman because a woman left him. Yeah. Which
36:49
is true. Yeah, it's kind of a long, yeah,
36:51
I mean, I think he was like, okay, I'm
36:53
going to be a vigilante. Like he's kind of
36:55
starting to do that, right? Like that element is
36:58
seated, then he's actually assumes the identity of the
37:00
bat. Like I'm going to be a different guy
37:02
after he fucking has this different trauma. I
37:04
got a message for the ring pop company.
37:07
I know this is make
37:09
bigger rings so they can fit bigger people's
37:11
fingers. I want to be able to bring
37:13
pop on my finger. Yeah, I would love
37:15
to see adult hands with a little ring
37:17
pop. I'd love to see that. They're like,
37:19
there's a gap, but you can't bend it
37:22
because it's the classical. It'll
37:24
just break your ring pop thing for the
37:26
bigger finger ring pop. You got to be
37:28
plus size ring. We need
37:30
to be really big again. Like that. Like
37:32
a thing that people wear. Don't
37:37
eat them. Just wear them. They get
37:39
on the right carpet. Okay. Where are
37:41
we? Sorry to sidetrack about the ring.
37:43
Oh no, he said that. You're supposed
37:45
to sidetrack. That's otherwise. Oh boy. A
37:48
hundred paragraphs levy. So Velestra
37:55
goes alone to meet the Joker, Mark Hamill,
37:57
which I'm like the Joker comes so late.
38:00
But I feel like that's also kind of something with
38:02
these movies where like there's like a whole new thing
38:04
happening like kind of far Into it. I don't like
38:06
it and I like that whole new thing better than
38:08
the thing that happened before but Mark Hamill Famously
38:11
from Star Wars so our
38:13
old he's Luke. Oh, yes
38:15
Yeah, Skywalker and our our
38:18
favorite movie Love
38:20
him so much Interesting
38:23
that he was the Joker and he's
38:25
fucking great Yeah I
38:27
think the best Batman. I think I think Mark
38:30
Hamill is the best Joker. He's so fucking good
38:32
And if he's a Joker on the TV show,
38:34
yes. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Oh Cool.
38:37
So it's all the same cast. It's the same
38:39
cast Yeah, that's fun and offers to hire
38:41
him to kill Batman later that night
38:43
the shadowy shadowy Villa vigilante enters
38:46
the Velestra's mansion to execute him only
38:48
to find Velestra has been poisoned by
38:50
Joker venom on Velestra's lap is a
38:52
surveillance camera and a radio from which
38:54
comes Joker's voice the vigilante Leaps
38:56
from the building's window just as the package
38:58
and Velestra's lap explodes Batman is
39:01
confronted by a police task force and pursuit
39:03
in pursued into a construction site
39:06
One officer shoots a propane tank in
39:08
a nice explosion Batman escapes Andrea picks
39:10
him up in her car later Andrea
39:12
tells what really happened that night. They
39:14
saw each other. I think that bad. I
39:16
think that action sequence is really good It
39:19
was just like it's some really some really cool animation.
39:21
I thought it was fun. Which one he's kind of
39:23
escaping Huh, or with the
39:25
wrong part read When
39:29
the when oh, there's that cheese sequence right are we
39:31
in a different part in the movie? Oh,
39:33
yeah This
39:38
is this is the kind of crazy Twist
39:41
it starts to start to become a twist at this
39:43
point So Andrea returned home and found her
39:45
father in the clutches of three mobsters
39:47
soul, Bronsky and Velestra They've discovered
39:49
that he's embezzled their money and want him
39:52
dead Carl begs for one more
39:54
chance and Velestra agrees once they're gone
39:56
Carl tells Andrea they must leave town immediately So he's like
39:58
I'll get it for you tomorrow, but it's 24
40:00
hours and he's like we gotta leave the country.
40:02
I can't get the money. We're gonna die They're
40:04
gonna kill you to my daughter. I was like
40:06
this and he clutched her head like they were
40:08
lovers I didn't that
40:10
part stressed me out. It's very stressful
40:13
Bruce realizes Carl has to find another way
40:15
to rid himself and Andrea
40:18
the mobsters and has
40:20
been killing them The next
40:22
morning Bruce and Andrea promised to make their relationship
40:24
work Bruce looks over the
40:26
photo of Carl Bumont and the three
40:28
gangsters and realizes the illustrious chauffeur is
40:30
the Joker. Yeah The
40:35
chauffeur character was drawn more crudely than
40:37
the other characters I noticed that character
40:40
Oh interesting, but I
40:42
didn't get why and then I was like, okay She's the Joker
40:44
or whatever But I was like I still felt like he was
40:46
drawn very like one line here one line here
40:48
with the other ones were more Did anyone notice that
40:51
I didn't know apparently not do we skipped the part
40:53
where that man was in the car and he was like
40:55
breathing In his oxygen tank and that man got out and he's
40:57
like, it's not healthy in here Yeah,
41:00
yeah Yeah,
41:02
I don't know that really made me laugh.
41:04
Yeah So
41:06
in his office Reeve fumes
41:08
about the police's failure to catch Batman
41:10
and is confronted by the Joker Joker
41:13
stabs Reeves with a slow acting version
41:15
of his Joker Toxin Reeves
41:17
is rushed to the hospital and confesses Boma
41:19
enlisted Reeves's help in getting himself and Andrea
41:22
out of town But my refused
41:24
to give any money for Reeves election So
41:26
Reeves still Boma's whereabouts told told them or
41:28
sold them to the mob Batman
41:30
goes to Andrea's empty hotel room Batman
41:32
sees a toy plane flying towards the
41:34
room carrying a bomb Dismantles it and
41:36
escapes and they remembered discovering
41:38
the Joker killed her father that fateful day
41:42
Who is so Reeves go when he did
41:44
the hospital he can't stop laughing, right? Yeah. Yeah That
41:47
was pretty funny because then they give him an injection
41:50
then Batman appears and he's laughing again I was
41:52
like, yeah, it's pretty funny. You calm down and you're
41:54
like a man dresses a bat. That's
41:56
funny Must listen
41:58
to a Doughboy's episode Get
42:01
those laughs. How am I gonna
42:03
laugh? Oh, God, it's
42:05
a dough boy. Inside his hideout,
42:07
the Joker is confronted by the killer
42:10
while eating a bolo sausage sliced by
42:12
his cooking animatronic hazel.
42:14
So it's like Rosie from the
42:16
Jetsons. Yeah. And he's like, go
42:19
fucking random. You knew that she was gonna be
42:21
no good when you saw her with a big
42:23
knife. Yeah. You knew something was gonna happen.
42:25
But I was hoping she would be on
42:28
the side of Andrea. I thought
42:30
maybe she was gonna come to her to death. That
42:32
would be wild. So
42:34
wild. I really was like, I hope the
42:36
robot helped her. And then she tried to get her and I
42:38
was like, huh? This
42:41
is not what I expected. He
42:43
deduces the vigilante is Andrea and the
42:45
two fights. The Joker lures her into
42:47
the path of a gigantic aircraft engine.
42:49
Batman arrives, crashes his bat
42:52
cycle into the engine fronters and
42:54
comes from Andrea. Andrea
42:56
says she has nothing left except her
42:58
revenge. Joker distracts Batman
43:00
long enough to don a jet
43:02
pack and escape. Andrea reappears and
43:04
Batman please for her to run
43:06
as the fairground is wired to
43:09
explode. She refuses. The ground beneath
43:11
Batman collapses into a sewer line carrying
43:13
him away. Later at the manor,
43:15
the bat signal lights up in the sky and
43:17
Batman swings off into the night. And
43:20
that's it. Yeah. It's so
43:22
fun hearing you guys read this because I
43:24
can tell how little you like. It's
43:27
so clear that you get it like
43:29
this. I
43:32
know. I feel like at the beginning
43:34
I was like, oh, it's like a romance. There
43:36
was this love story happening, but
43:39
it's much more about the sort of dark images
43:41
of guys getting away
43:43
from each other and fighting and stuff. And
43:45
I mean, I just don't care for that
43:47
as much. But
43:50
I was kind of like, okay, is this
43:52
canon? Like is this so when
43:54
Batman meets Kim Basinger or whatever
43:56
is like, is that he's like, he's already been
43:58
like, I forget about Andrea right now. I'm
44:00
with Valerie Dale or whatever. They're all
44:02
kind of different cannons. I feel like
44:04
I think there's a Burton Schumacher
44:07
movies are kind of their own thing even though
44:09
there's a shifting Batman. I do think that's kind
44:11
of one continuity But this
44:13
is the bat the animated series is kind of its
44:15
own thing and I could draw some other sources But
44:17
that's the thing. It's like I think there's just like
44:20
there's so many different versions of Batman and they've got
44:22
some overlap But I think you kind of the way
44:24
to think of them all is self-contained. All
44:26
right, okay Even though
44:29
this has the bat like the Burton theme that Denny
44:31
Elfman theme is part of the you know The animated
44:33
series and it's in this movie a
44:35
little bit. It's like it's still not the same
44:37
Batman. It's like a different Yeah,
44:39
so every iteration of Batman is like
44:42
a restart Yeah I think for the most
44:44
part because it's like you know You'll get
44:46
to the Nolan movies and those are those
44:48
have nothing that carries over from the Burton
44:50
movies They're kind of just their own thing
44:53
I guess that's a nice freedom for the people making
44:55
them that you're trying to make everything make sense This
44:57
is this is my issue with the movies. I
44:59
also didn't see it in 1993 or whatever but
45:02
the origin story I was like I've seen this
45:04
origin story so many times and this is kind
45:06
of a Boring
45:08
version of it. I guess. Yeah, I
45:11
think what's cool about it is that it's okay
45:13
This is a because the whole thing about man
45:15
is like yeah, there's some His
45:18
issues with like that like what what a
45:20
solitary figure he is Right and how he
45:22
can't really ever love or be loved and
45:24
this very much like imagines a different reality
45:26
or like centers on like the other reality
45:29
that could have been where he'd like found
45:31
a Partner and and had a
45:33
normal life and just like the flashbacks to
45:35
that and then with each flashback We're
45:38
seeing that there's more and more distance between like you
45:40
know What he what he hopes for and what can
45:42
actually take place and then we see him like you
45:44
know Like if he's in this solitary life by the
45:46
end of it. I don't know I think I
45:48
structurally I like the romantic fat flashbacks, but again
45:51
I do have nostalgia for this movie from
45:53
seeing as a kid and and also like I
45:57
I think it's just like a
45:59
big part of the appeal for this movie for me is like
46:01
actually looks fantastic. I just love the aesthetic of it. It
46:03
did look good. It looks cool. And
46:06
he was particularly sad in this movie. Very,
46:08
very sad. I feel like we haven't seen
46:10
much sadness out of Batman. Yeah.
46:13
So that was kind of interesting. I was like, oh, he's lonely.
46:16
Lonely. Like just hanging out at
46:18
Grey? I feel lonely really. No. Michael
46:20
Keaton was just like hot. He's like, I'm just doing my
46:22
thing and then everyone's small. Got that
46:24
curly jerry curl. I'm making out with gals.
46:27
I liked it. I love that he's a big
46:29
dude in this. Yeah, he's very
46:31
big. It makes it like the bat, like
46:33
Batman should be a big imposing like fucking
46:35
unit of a dude. Well, I will say
46:38
Michael Keaton is 5'8", which I looked up. Oh.
46:40
And that always shocks me because I'm 5'10", and whenever
46:43
I learn that someone that I've just like watched my
46:45
whole life is shorter than me, it really throws me
46:47
for a loop. Like I'm just like, doesn't make sense.
46:50
Well, how tall is Michelle Pfeiffer then? She's 5'7".
46:52
I looked it all up. Oh, she's much shorter.
46:55
I know. I wonder if they were doing Apple box tricks.
46:57
Probably. Wait,
46:59
are there any big Batman? Well, that
47:01
Affleck is tall, right? Affleck's just, he's cool. He's
47:04
more bulky. I don't
47:06
know how tall he is. He's like a big dude. How big is
47:08
he? He's a big dude. Yeah. But
47:11
how big? Let's find out. 6'2". Okay,
47:14
6'2". Me and Affleck. Wow. You
47:17
guys are so excited. Let me just stand back and
47:19
our heads be the same. No,
47:22
I know what he's going to say. No, like
47:24
you see his hog and gong girl. Yeah.
47:27
There's a big hog. I forgot about that. He's got
47:29
a huge hog. Wait, you
47:31
see his dick and gong girl? You see it in
47:33
profile, but you get a pretty good look at it.
47:35
I saw it in theaters. We argued about this. It's
47:38
gigantic. We're used
47:40
to this gigantic. I think it looks good. But I don't
47:42
think, I think gigantic is a high bar. I have a
47:44
video of it. I do have a video of it. Easily
47:48
accessible? I love that. He has one of his
47:50
favorites. I love that. And then
47:52
group texted it to prove a point. I'll
47:54
find it. I don't have time to go find
47:56
the timestamp. I sure don't. read
48:00
about the oh never mind it
48:02
could take a while found it
48:05
here it is I'm playing the clip I'm
48:07
wearing shower sounds which is
48:10
showing it to Nicole that's
48:12
a big hog wait I barely saw it they show
48:14
there's a comic where you see Batman's
48:18
dick and it's looking pretty that's so what
48:20
is wrong with it where you see Batman's
48:22
yeah and they released it and then some
48:24
people complained so they re-released it with that
48:26
like Batman's yeah I think there's a might
48:28
be if you just search for Batman's dick
48:30
it might be tough because you might get
48:32
a lot of fan art oh we don't
48:35
want this it we want official DC Batman's dick in
48:38
cartoon yeah in a deepie comic
48:40
cartoon and it's like that's not practice
48:42
we think animated animated yeah yeah a
48:44
lot of hits for Nick Wager calm Batman
48:46
damn number one back why is it purple
48:48
like it's already been searched oh it's bookmark
48:55
so yeah okay some of these are
48:58
nice but and my your where the
49:00
art the
49:04
artist had fun yeah is it the
49:06
one with the yeah yeah so
49:08
the original like and then they censored it hmm
49:13
you see where they right here it's
49:15
not well you can barely really see
49:17
it I will say that's that's a
49:19
big one it's pretty good enough that
49:21
seems nice yeah Jesus Christ yeah you
49:23
can see like his glands it's pretty
49:25
big glands all right
49:27
I get these vast deference
49:31
the hell's going on with Batman yeah
49:33
I mean horny is hell it's because he's kind of
49:35
like he ultimately ends up being valsal but
49:37
he is it for he does like a
49:39
horny pure voluntary so yeah well I get
49:42
in so is an involuntary so is that
49:44
a word you just coined no people have said
49:46
valsal oh wait he's a in-sale no he's a
49:48
ball because you could
49:50
have any woman he wants exactly oh
49:52
but he chooses not to as a
49:54
fellow valsal we're kind of more involved
49:56
well that's kind of the Batman Joker
49:58
like some people theorize That's basically what
50:00
is it's false cell versus in cell like Batman
50:03
can fuck but chooses not to Joker can't
50:05
want to fuck but can't oh He's
50:08
got how we quit. He ultimately has Harley Quinn. Oh,
50:10
that's nothing Batman the enemy series gave us Harley Quinn
50:13
That's like the that came from that show who has
50:15
hurt. What do you mean? The Joker
50:17
like they're a couple there a couple.
50:19
Yeah, right really manic.
50:21
Yeah, cuz she falls into a bad as
50:23
shit, too, right? There's different
50:25
origins, but yeah Were you
50:28
afraid we couldn't talk about how a flex
50:30
hog good so there's like 45 dough boys
50:32
episode It
50:34
was like, you know rude or something Look
50:44
I love I love Ben Affleck. I'm a big
50:46
fan of him his as an actor. I think
50:48
he's a good director I think that he does
50:51
interesting stuff anything is Batman's really good which you'll
50:53
get to I'm excited to see it. I'm also
50:55
excited to see it. I like the Snyder movies
50:57
a lot of people don't okay I can't wait
50:59
because I've heard so many bits about that. Yeah
51:02
It's a bit of a B side. I wonder what you guys
51:04
will think of it Yeah, and why is there a
51:06
Snyder cut and not a Snyder cut? Well,
51:09
so there was a whole thing
51:11
where they were where Zack Snyder
51:13
was replaced on Justice League And
51:16
there was some dispute as to how like how
51:18
much that was him He said he withdrew for
51:20
personal reasons, but there was also some speculation that
51:22
he was like it was not his choice to
51:24
leave Otter was very weird Some
51:28
sad timing Joss
51:30
Whedon who directed the Mitch has dropped
51:32
his phone Joss Whedon who directed the
51:34
Avengers? Movie got brought on to
51:36
bring in Justice League and kind of brought the
51:38
Avengers sort of jokey tone And
51:41
a lot of people didn't like that you
51:43
know what DC is and so then the
51:45
Snyder's act There was always speculation the Zack
51:47
Snyder cut Existed and that was
51:49
later confirmed and they released like a four-hour version
51:52
of the movie for our in long It's a
51:54
boy. I became such a joke. I feel like
51:56
two people like are you know using it in
51:58
bits? Yeah Snyder Cut or
52:00
whatever. But it's cool. Was it even in the
52:02
movie? Was there a joke about it in the Barbie movie?
52:04
There is a joke about it in the Barbie movie. I felt like
52:07
that was another in joke that I was like, my mom
52:09
won't understand what that means. And by the way. I like to
52:11
watch movies wondering what your mom will and won't understand. I know,
52:13
I know. Well, if I was with her, I'd be going, this
52:15
is better, this is better, this is better. You know. I
52:18
love that. I watch movies in a similar
52:20
way, or with my mommy, so bad. But
52:24
I like
52:27
the, I think the Snyder Cut is better. Yeah,
52:29
you like that four hour jamboree? I
52:31
like it more, it's better. It's a better movie. Four hours
52:33
though? I think I've written a painting. It's long, I mean,
52:36
you're gonna hate having to watch a four hour movie. We
52:38
have to do that? Oh, you hated watching a 75
52:40
minute movie. Yeah, it's true. That's a big three hour. I don't
52:42
think that duration is the issue. 75 minutes was
52:44
too much. It really was. We
52:46
only watched TikTok. Can
52:49
I just say also that again with
52:51
a timeline, they go to the, they
52:54
were at the World's Fair, which by the way, they take a
52:56
card around and they go to the House of the
52:58
Future, which is a lady
53:00
chopping carrots. I guess it's a robot chopping carrots. The
53:02
thing is that the robot is chopping carrots because besides
53:04
that, it's just a guy watching TV. There's nothing really.
53:06
Here's one thing I didn't like, the Joker had to push the
53:08
meat for her to keep cutting it. I was like, then this
53:10
isn't helpful. You could just do
53:13
it. Yeah, you're moving with one element of
53:15
this. So maybe it's
53:17
like a companionship thing. He was in love with her.
53:19
I also was like, what if he really had sex
53:22
with her? Like I just felt like, yeah, it seemed like
53:24
it could go that way. No wonder if
53:26
that's what the future is. You could fuck a robot. People
53:29
do that now. That's the
53:31
present. You could fuck a robot. You could fuck a robot if you want. A
53:33
hundred percent. Well, I know they have sex dolls,
53:36
but like an animated doll. I feel like there's
53:38
gotta be one that like goes like, I love
53:40
this. There
53:43
is one that. I love that. You're
53:46
hot. I like your hog. I
53:49
only got two Roombas in my house, so
53:51
I'm not, I ain't fucking them. I hope
53:53
not. You only have two, so
53:55
you're not fucking them. You don't want to break one. You
53:58
could stand to break one. You I don't want
54:00
to count your money, but I think you could afford
54:02
to replace a room, but if you fucked it and
54:05
it broke I thought I was too complicated It's
54:09
like I don't have a bumping in I just it's
54:11
been sitting there very loud There's a
54:13
lot about it's not as convenient as I thought it
54:15
was gonna be yes It's a little bit
54:17
of handy-ass you know maybe sit it's a move the chairs
54:21
Every done vacuuming by now yeah, I got gift
54:23
I had a rumor that was gifted room I
54:26
didn't fuck a room until it broke okay trying
54:28
to be okay Do
54:31
your cats ride the Roomba? God
54:33
damn it. I wish they did so bad that would
54:35
be awesome Yeah, you could
54:37
really go viral with that. Yeah Mr..
54:41
Mitchell next shall I vacuum the bird's
54:43
nest? Okay,
54:50
this movie meaning to go
54:52
viral My list of things to do
54:54
eat cheese and go viral Awards
55:07
and reception now this Batman earned about
55:10
five point six million dollars in North
55:12
American box office sales the film went on
55:14
to gross 5.8 million in
55:16
a domestic total box office intake the
55:19
filmmakers blamed Warner Brothers for the
55:21
unsuccessful marketing campaign Which is commonly
55:23
attributed to the rushed production schedule
55:25
due to the studio's last-minute decision
55:27
to release the film theatrically It
55:29
currently holds an 81% rating on rotten tomatoes and
55:32
an 88% audience score I'm
55:35
happy for everyone that this is their favorite.
55:38
I'm like great. Yeah, no offense We were
55:40
a little bored, and that's just I was
55:42
more than bored Yeah, I had to restart
55:44
this movie like eight times.
55:47
I fell asleep so many times It was yeah,
55:49
I really was like I put too thick to
55:52
my eyelids and I was like read all captain's
55:54
never look away And I should have done that
55:56
put the captions on till it helped because
56:00
I'm just like, I'm unable to think
56:02
about tooth, you know what I mean? Like if I
56:04
start zoning out that I'm like, oh, what? I gotta rewind.
56:06
I'm like, no, I was rewinding out being like,
56:09
I hate Batman. I've never wanted
56:11
to watch Batman in my whole life. And
56:13
now I have to. But you're watching, I feel
56:16
like our opinions are already differing so much. This
56:18
is one that we came together on, but I feel like
56:20
I've been enjoying. Yeah, you've been like, yeah, yeah. I've been
56:22
like, it's kind of fun. I like Tim Burton, you know?
56:24
So I'm like, that's been great. I don't know what's gonna happen
56:26
after this. Me either. I'm
56:28
really curious. I'm gonna be
56:31
fascinated to learn what you think of the Joel
56:33
Schumacher ones. I think you guys maybe will have
56:35
fun. You might like, these are the next ones
56:37
we're watching. Well, did you like Batman 66, the
56:39
Adam West one? No. I thought it
56:41
was like, kitschy fun, like kind of silly. Okay. It
56:43
wasn't the worst thing that ever happened to me. Like I
56:46
had a good time. I thought it was the worst
56:48
thing that happened to me until this movie. Yeah,
56:50
yeah, yeah. This movie is, it's a funny decision
56:52
to be like, let's release like
56:54
the super horny animated
56:57
children's movie on Christmas day.
56:59
Yeah. It's a weird choice,
57:01
but who's going? Like, I don't know, it's
57:03
tough. A lot of dads with their kids
57:05
for this holiday. Yeah, yeah. Like
57:08
it feels like the kind of thing you would put on this
57:10
summer and like you would go with your friends and just, I
57:12
mean, the winter going to the movies a lot. It did just
57:14
seem like it should have been released on VHS. Yeah,
57:16
that would have been the movie. Like direct the video? Yeah, I think so. It
57:19
feels like that. Yeah, it didn't feel like a theater
57:21
movie. And that's where I think it ultimately had
57:23
success. Yeah. Because also
57:25
it was like, they'd made it as, because they
57:27
were making a direct to video, they'd like, it
57:29
was all framed for four by three.
57:32
And so then they had, they had to
57:34
like on the fly, figure out how to
57:36
reframe it for a theatrical aspect. Oh, that's
57:38
why they're saying it was. There
57:41
are frames in it that are like blurred and frames
57:43
that freeze. There's weird stuff in it. Yeah, there were
57:45
a couple moments where it like, I was like, oh,
57:47
they decided to stop animating that. They
57:50
said no more animation there. They, you get
57:52
it. He's just staring. You
57:55
get what's going on. They're talking to a
57:57
grave again. Also gave us clay face. which
58:00
is a great villain. And
58:02
then he changed his game. And an actor- Yeah,
58:04
that wasn't in this. No. His face
58:06
was an actor obsessed with looking young.
58:09
And he used cream, and then he turned into
58:11
like a big mud monster. Pretty funny. Have you
58:13
heard about the billionaire who uses his son's blood
58:15
to stay young? Oh my God. He's
58:18
like 45 years old and looks 45 years
58:20
old, and takes
58:22
his son's blood, and then his younger son gives
58:24
blood to his father. That's
58:27
so messed up. And that's weird. And what they
58:29
like, they have like blood transfusions? I
58:31
think so. That's insane. Isn't that wild?
58:34
That's horrible for those kids. Look
58:36
at, he truly just looks 45, maybe
58:38
even 50. Brian
58:41
Johnson. Yeah, look at this sick man.
58:44
Yeah, he looks like at
58:47
his exact age. And then
58:49
that's all of them. They're all like, what is this?
58:51
It's like a romance. It looks like that like
58:53
sexy cover where like all those women are hugging each
58:55
other. Like they're like, we have all
58:57
each other's blood in us. This
58:59
is really bizarre. Isn't that wild? It's
59:02
like three generations all in like a tender
59:04
embrace. My dad, my brother, and
59:06
my nephew would never pose like that.
59:08
I can't imagine. I don't think anybody
59:10
in my family would. That would be
59:13
the weirdest fucking day. If they all
59:15
put on, I would say
59:17
wife beaters. I don't think we call it that anymore.
59:19
Spouse beef, beaters. Spouse beef, you know, keep it inclusive.
59:22
And then romantically hugged. I think that would be the
59:25
end of times. That's
59:27
the thing about Bruce Wayne is like the
59:30
actual billionaires are like this. They're fucking weirdo.
59:33
You don't want to marry them. No, no.
59:35
The full length picture is even creepier. They're
59:38
standing in a field. This is so bizarre. This
59:40
is honestly the weirdest. And they kind of do look like
59:42
shit. They look bad. They all
59:44
look bad for their age. Like the main dad,
59:46
regular dad is like buff, but you're like, yeah,
59:49
you could be like just work out. Like it's
59:51
like, you don't need your blood for that. Who's
59:53
the lady in the top right? Oh
59:55
yeah. I think that's like their wife
59:57
who wants to kill them all. I
59:59
don't. Oh, that's him. That's
1:00:01
the billionaire. That's
1:00:03
the wife that wants to kill them It
1:00:07
looks like something mugshot. Okay, let's
1:00:09
move along Okay,
1:00:13
this segment is called no Wayne where
1:00:15
we read trivia from the film So
1:00:18
it's the first comic book film Nominated
1:00:20
for an Annie award awards for excellence
1:00:23
in film animation for best animated feature
1:00:25
losing to the lion king. Oh tough
1:00:27
year Yeah, I mean real tough. I
1:00:29
was one of the best Disney Oh, it
1:00:31
wasn't until Disney's big hero 6 2014
1:00:33
that another comic book film was nominated.
1:00:35
I love big hero sex It's such a
1:00:37
good movie and Sony's spider-man
1:00:40
into the spider-verse from 2018. I
1:00:42
didn't love that. Did you watch that?
1:00:44
I haven't seen that I've been told that is good
1:00:46
and that homecoming one is the second one that came
1:00:48
out is also Really really good. Mike
1:00:50
has been telling me those are really good. And
1:00:53
I think you'll like them. They're like actually funny
1:00:55
I was like in theaters laughing and nobody
1:00:57
else was laughing and I was like, is this really exciting view? Mark
1:01:03
Hamill went on went to a screening at a
1:01:05
local theater during the film's theatrical release with only
1:01:07
a few people in attendance He
1:01:09
asked them to sit with him before the film started.
1:01:11
They must have been geeking out That would be really
1:01:13
exciting that you're where there's someone like me and they're
1:01:15
like, who are you? Why
1:01:18
do you want to sit with me? But
1:01:21
like if you are a superfan and you're going
1:01:23
to see that and that's him I would just be
1:01:25
nervous about reacting to the film next to a person
1:01:27
who's starring it that would make me feel uncomfortable Right
1:01:30
the idea of you screaming who
1:01:33
are you to Luke Skywalker? He
1:01:38
literally would be like this is the first Might
1:01:42
be refreshing from start to finish
1:01:44
production took eight months. That's fast for animated. Yeah,
1:01:46
I think so And
1:01:48
despite the title the phantasm is
1:01:50
never referred to by name. I
1:01:53
don't like that Well,
1:01:55
maybe what are they calling her in it?
1:01:58
I know I mean they're like Like the most
1:02:00
of them have taken it for Batman.
1:02:03
They just keep saying it's Batman. Mmm,
1:02:05
alright. Well, it's the Bat! Man, I
1:02:07
think the... I
1:02:10
think the Phantasm... I think
1:02:12
it's a really cool design. I think the Phantasm
1:02:14
looks so awesome. I love the hook and... And
1:02:16
then I think it's a cool reveal. I don't
1:02:18
know. I thought it was very cool when it was
1:02:20
her because I was like, whoa! I
1:02:23
really felt like I just really didn't get it.
1:02:25
Whoa! But I also think it's easier
1:02:27
to have a twist than a cartoon than a day
1:02:29
of the TV. You know, with physical actors. I also
1:02:31
was pretty surprised. I was like, wait, what? Yeah. I'm
1:02:34
like, well, yeah, she could look huge because she's drawn.
1:02:37
Um, it's not like a costume. Um,
1:02:41
anyone could have been in there, but there's no one
1:02:43
in there. It's a drawing. Um,
1:02:46
alright, let's take a quick break. When we get
1:02:48
back, we'll be back with more Batman Mask of
1:02:50
the Phantasm. We're back! This segment is called The
1:02:52
Bat. We're
1:02:55
back! This segment, holy
1:02:58
Batman! Batman
1:03:01
will rate Kevin Conroy on the
1:03:03
definitive newcomers Batman scale. We'll use
1:03:05
our phones with his little QR
1:03:07
code and we're going to rank
1:03:09
them across five unique characteristics. Preparedness.
1:03:11
Wow. How prepared is this Batman? Does
1:03:13
he get to use his little gadgets and tools? Detective
1:03:16
ability. Does this Batman get to be a
1:03:19
little detective? Is he good at mystery solving?
1:03:21
Voice gravelliness. How gravelly is
1:03:24
Batman's voice? Sadness. How lonely
1:03:26
slash brooding slash emo is
1:03:28
his Batman. And finally, hotness.
1:03:30
How hot and horny is his Batman?
1:03:34
I am just impressed by the production volume.
1:03:36
Isn't this cool? Isn't it great? You
1:03:38
have an actual physical QR code. We're scanning in the
1:03:40
studio and then we're using our phones to rate this.
1:03:43
This is wild. This is cool. Preparedness.
1:03:46
I should talk about it a little bit. It's
1:03:54
just reading
1:03:59
out. Oh shit, I was
1:04:01
thinking much longer. Are
1:04:04
you done? I've been after like a clip. Okay, he's
1:04:06
just like, it is a big one. Okay
1:04:12
so... Big girl out of your mind. Preparedness,
1:04:16
we all on average ranked
1:04:18
him 75.5% prepared. I felt like
1:04:20
he was prepared but then it's like when she flipped
1:04:22
him over in the jujitsu I was like, you weren't ready for
1:04:25
that one. Look
1:04:27
at these, a Weiger 100. Yeah, I went straight 100. Oh,
1:04:31
you can see who did it? Oh fun.
1:04:33
I noticed that. I noticed last time didn't
1:04:35
have as wide a range and I can
1:04:37
see that these little things got it. Okay,
1:04:41
so detective ability 72%. What
1:04:44
does everyone think about that? I
1:04:46
mean... You thought he was 100% detective ability. I
1:04:49
think that he did some shit out. I
1:04:56
matched up with someone here because I went
1:04:58
right around what the number ended up being.
1:05:02
But he should have probably known that
1:05:04
his lover was the phantasm. He
1:05:06
didn't do a kind of detecting. I'm
1:05:08
that first one because I was like, I don't
1:05:10
think he really was figuring shit out. Yeah, but I
1:05:13
feel like they talked about him being a good
1:05:15
detective, which made me think he
1:05:17
was. How do you give him
1:05:19
100 on voice graveliness? He's not. He doesn't.
1:05:22
He just never changes his voice. He's appropriately gravelly.
1:05:24
Yeah, we averaged 52. He just sounds like this
1:05:26
the entire movie. Yeah,
1:05:29
I didn't find him gravelly at all. I'm
1:05:32
that first one again. Yeah, you guys ranked him pretty low.
1:05:34
I put him at 70 ish because I was like,
1:05:36
sort of gravelly. Sadness.
1:05:40
We all agree he's basically 100% sad. Very
1:05:42
sad. This is the saddest sad we've
1:05:44
ever seen. So sad, just hanging out at graves. He's
1:05:47
always by a grave and at the end he's like, I'm
1:05:49
alone. It was actually bad at the end.
1:05:53
Hotness and horniness, 79.8%. Who
1:05:56
ranked him low? Me. Okay, so
1:05:58
you're not attracted. I thought he was a bulky, hot... I
1:06:00
like that he was big, but I just he was too
1:06:02
sad. I'm like I don't want to yeah, sad man
1:06:04
Yeah, yeah, that does take away a little
1:06:07
bit. Yeah, all right. Well that was fun
1:06:09
It's like the idea of a date of going to visit
1:06:11
his dead parents. I know Not
1:06:18
into it Natalie
1:06:21
my wife is by the way she mentioned
1:06:23
is a huge fan of newcomers. She listened
1:06:25
to every episode of your Five years she
1:06:28
but she what like all what horn is
1:06:30
she was her one comment on this movie
1:06:32
was like I like how horny everyone is
1:06:34
a very horny movie the film itself was
1:06:36
horny Yes, and we horny for him right
1:06:38
maybe that's the distinction. We have to make one
1:06:40
more there. Yeah about that So we rank
1:06:42
it clearly There was
1:06:45
there was a lady in the beginning
1:06:47
who throws a wine in his face, but
1:06:49
she's not the fantastic That's what I said
1:06:51
earlier that Confused
1:06:53
wait, I don't think it's her I think
1:06:55
that's a random woman I think Hair
1:06:59
yeah, the character is too similar.
1:07:01
Yes. I agree. That's confusing. I
1:07:05
don't think that's her it is a little confusing All
1:07:09
right, that is a warning all these women are
1:07:11
on his arms, and he's not saying a single
1:07:13
word Yeah, and they're all like very into him
1:07:15
just standing there. You don't gotta say a word
1:07:18
when your wallet's up He's playing the role of
1:07:20
Bruce Wayne when the real him is Batman So
1:07:28
like he's you know Doesn't
1:07:30

1:07:32

1:10:04
half of it. You know when you read people's
1:10:07
bad tweets? Letterbox is the same thing but with
1:10:09
movie reviews. So you'll see a movie where you're
1:10:11
like, that's stunk. And then you go on and
1:10:13
you're like, this movie was fantastic. Some friend of
1:10:15
yours. Oh my god. Your friend Peter Griffin. That's
1:10:17
so funny. That's
1:10:20
really funny. This
1:10:22
Letterbox review is by Adam Bolt.
1:10:25
Batman is the world's greatest detective
1:10:27
because he can draw a smiley face on
1:10:29
photos with a sharpie. And he was
1:10:31
like, he's the joke. That is funny. That is
1:10:33
pretty funny. It's
1:10:36
Kyle said. Adam gave
1:10:38
four stars. It's Kyle gave four and a
1:10:40
half stars. Alfred is the biggest voyeur out
1:10:42
there. That is true. Alfred's
1:10:45
horny. Okay, so what's a
1:10:47
one sentence review you would give the film? Well, I'll
1:10:49
do that. Mm-hmm. Mitch.
1:10:53
Not horrible but horny. Okay.
1:10:57
How many stars? That's
1:11:00
funny. Thank you. I give
1:11:02
it either two and a
1:11:05
half or three stars. Three stars. Okay. Which
1:11:07
for me is like, it's fine. Yeah. I
1:11:10
think that it is a little bit boring for, and I
1:11:15
love the animated series. And when I saw this, I was
1:11:17
like, Joker has like planes
1:11:19
and like he comes in way
1:11:21
later. This movie needed Joker to
1:11:23
even inject some fun into
1:11:25
the movie. Yeah. I liked
1:11:27
the horniness of it. There's a lot of weird parts of
1:11:30
it, which we've gone over and it just, I don't know.
1:11:32
If I'd seen it in 93, maybe it would be a
1:11:34
five star movie. Yeah, fair.
1:11:36
But I'm not nostalgic for it. So. Fair.
1:11:40
I'm going to give it one star. Horny, but
1:11:42
I did not have fun with the horniness.
1:11:45
Yeah, I'm going to give it, this is
1:11:48
where I always get confused because I'm trying to I'm
1:11:50
going to give it one star. Um,
1:11:54
really slow. Good romance.
1:11:57
Like the twist. Still one star.
1:12:02
Your review of it is like a review
1:12:04
of UCB theater for a lot of people.
1:12:06
What was it? Horniness,
1:12:08
but I did not enjoy the horniness. When
1:12:13
like a person comes in off the street and like,
1:12:15
why did I get a jerk off during that? I
1:12:17
thought I was supposed to be comedy. Really
1:12:20
funny? Alright,
1:12:22
Nick, what do you say? Loved
1:12:26
it as a boy and today. It's
1:12:29
the Bat! Five stars! Nice, that's a
1:12:31
good review. I like that
1:12:33
review. It's commas.
1:12:37
So please everyone out there write a review of Apple Podcasts,
1:12:40
it can be very simple. And
1:12:42
we will pick one to read on the next episode
1:12:44
and of course rate us on Spotify which takes .2
1:12:46
seconds. Yeah, Mitch Weiger,
1:12:48
do you guys have anything you want to plug?
1:12:51
Hmm. Doughboys
1:12:53
I guess? I guess
1:12:56
so. I love doughboys. I
1:12:59
love doughboys. It's always funny.
1:13:03
I always have such a good time when I do
1:13:05
it. It's always so fun. Because
1:13:07
you're so funny and I think it's the only thing Nick and I
1:13:09
question about you is that you like the podcast. Well,
1:13:13
I'm broken in the brain. We're
1:13:18
going to be back next week with the 1995 movie Batman
1:13:20
Forever. What
1:13:22
do you know about this? Nothing.
1:13:25
I thought it was George Clooney but apparently it's
1:13:27
Val Kilmer and I had no idea Val Kilmer
1:13:29
was a Batman. So I'm pretty excited.
1:13:32
I didn't realize it was Val Kilmer either. I had no
1:13:34
idea who it was but I'm excited. Why'd you laugh? I
1:13:37
feel like... I'm going to
1:13:39
listen to this episode and it's going to be very
1:13:41
funny to hear you guys react to this movie. It's
1:13:43
insane in a lot of ways. I'm more... Batman
1:13:47
and Robin I'm more interested in hearing. We
1:13:50
get Jim Carrey in this one. And who else do
1:13:52
we get? Tommie Lee Jones. Tommie
1:13:55
Lee Jones. Is Zuma
1:13:57
Thurman in that? She's
1:14:00
in one, right? She's in one, right? Okay.
1:14:02
And Tommy Lee Jones... I feel like Batman Forever was the one
1:14:04
all these people were in. I don't
1:14:06
know. I mean, I just don't know. Tommy Lee
1:14:09
Jones has that quote about Jim Carrey that came
1:14:11
from them working together on this, right? Yeah. Well,
1:14:14
it was something about his buffoonery. It's a great quote. I cannot
1:14:16
tolerate your buffoonery. I think that's what it is. Wow. I'm
1:14:19
sure we'll get into that. And then
1:14:21
who's Iceman? That's Arnold, but
1:14:24
that's in... Yeah, Mr. Freeze. Mr. Freeze. He'll
1:14:26
be in... Yeah, he'll be in
1:14:28
Batman and Robin. And he says, Ice to
1:14:30
meet you. Pretty funny. Very
1:14:32
different from Mr. Freeze in Batman the
1:14:34
Animated Series. It's a great Mr. Freeze.
1:14:37
All right. Well, I look forward to that. Will
1:14:39
we learn Mr. Freeze's origin story? Why is he
1:14:41
so chilly? I mean, do
1:14:43
we learn everyone's origin stories? Yes, you're
1:14:45
going to learn everyone's origin stories multiple
1:14:48
times. Oh, actually, it depends on... Sometimes you
1:14:50
do, sometimes you don't. But yeah. Okay. All
1:14:53
right. Let me get a little context for Mr. Freeze.
1:14:55
He's a tragic figure. He's tragic. All
1:14:57
right, can't wait. Well, I'll be watching that soon.
1:14:59
And we'll see you here in a poll. Bye,
