"I know we're doing Batman and Robin, but I don't need to see nips".

Review It Yourself's Two Year Anniversary arrives in the form of the perfect (Sean's word) Batman & Robin (1997), a "film so thirsty that it hurts".

Who else do you call when your podcast garden needs tending but Clayton and Shawn from 'Men Who Like Men Who Like Movies'


Discussion Points:

-Clayton finally tries Jaffa Cakes!

-Sean brings his special mug to drink Biscuit Tea "Taste Like Jaffa".

-The backside acting in this film.

-Alfred's pizza-making skills.

-The Two-Disc Special Edition DVD (2009) blurb.

-The PUNS.

-Clayton doesn't care the Alfred is ill.

-The Pennyworth finally drops for Sean as to why Alfred is trying to contact his brother Wilfred.

-The confusing age of Robin in this series.

-Shawn derails the review with a Scary Movie quote. Sean responds with a Me, Myself and Irene quote.

-The 'Forever' Bat Credit-Card.

-Clayton can't understand why Sean dislikes The Batman (2022).

-The underrated soundtrack by Elliot Goldenthal.

-The fate of Doctor Chase Meridian.

-NOT that kind of pole. Sean's Dumb & Dumber example goes badly wrong.

-Stick around for Sean's to Clayton's description of where Bane's Venom is coming from.

-Shawn's flesh-coloured blanket wreaks havoc.

-Nora duty.
