like market movie as marketing campaign

Batman logo

want to say the end of my freshman year
[TS]
00:02:31
◼

in college and yeah so it was a big deal

and I think it was a man an extremely
[TS]
00:02:37
◼
►
successful film as well with a different
[TS]
00:02:40
◼
►
you know a different kind of take that
[TS]
00:02:42
◼
►
was very influential that led to like
[TS]
00:02:44
◼
►
the the a lot of the themes of it get
[TS]
00:02:47
◼
►
kind of replayed in batman the animated
[TS]
00:02:48
◼
►
series it's got an interesting kind of
[TS]
00:02:51
◼
►
art deco-style uh so anyway let's start
[TS]
00:02:55
◼
►
by discussing tim burton's batman is

chin isn't strong enough so that it's
[TS]
00:03:24
◼
►
it's remarkable that this movie was this
[TS]
00:03:27
◼
►
successful as it wasn't i think a lot of
[TS]
00:03:29
◼
►
it had to do with the overdrive
[TS]
00:03:31
◼
►
marketing that Warner's did to try to
[TS]
00:03:33
◼
►
convince people that know it wasn't

◼
►
going to suck you know I I was the one
[TS]

[TS]
00:03:41
◼
►
my senior year of high school I was the
[TS]
00:03:44
◼
►
one who when they announced the casting

[TS]
00:03:58
◼
►
my favorite movie Batman I saw it
[TS]
00:04:00
◼
►
opening night in a crowded theater that
[TS]
00:04:03
◼
►
was completely full and it was playing
[TS]
00:04:05
◼
►
into auditoriums in that multi plaque
[TS]
00:04:07
◼
►
and I know that because there was
[TS]
00:04:09
◼
►
something wrong with their print and we
[TS]
00:04:10
◼
►
had to sit there in that crowded theater
[TS]
00:04:12
◼
►
for 30 minutes past the show time until
[TS]
00:04:15
◼
►
it finally started and I still loved
[TS]
00:04:18
◼
►
every second of it
[TS]
00:04:19
◼
►
my friends and I spent months doing jack
[TS]
00:04:21
◼
►
nicholson's little card thing remove the
[TS]
00:04:23
◼
►
card around the deck everything in the
[TS]
00:04:26
◼
►
movie was cool too
[TS]
00:04:27
◼
►
and it's it's one of the few that ever
[TS]
00:04:28
◼
►
so twice in the theater in the same
[TS]
00:04:30
◼
►
weekend my college roommates and I we

[TS]
00:04:42
◼
►
movie and I married him anyway Tony ya
[TS]
00:04:45
◼
►
too young to be an honorary or just old
[TS]
00:04:47
◼
►
enough to see a bad man i was definitely
[TS]
00:04:49
◼
►
too young for part perhaps for both of
[TS]
00:04:52
◼
►
these movies but definitely for this one
[TS]
00:04:53
◼
►
I think i was aware as a spamming I was
[TS]
00:04:57
◼
►
a child I i was aware of the like the
[TS]
00:05:00
◼
►
marketing push of it but I i think the
[TS]
00:05:03
◼
►
first time I saw it was you know on a
[TS]
00:05:05
◼
►
VHS tape it's good you're drinking your
[TS]

00:05:09
◼
►
you're bad milk
[TS]
00:05:10
◼
►
yeah and speaking of bad milk i should
[TS]
00:05:12
◼
►
say the Batman cereal that came out
[TS]
00:05:14
◼
►
needing nine was really good
[TS]
00:05:17
◼
►
Batman Returns cereal not as good funny

00:05:20
◼
►
men but we'll get there we'll get there
[TS]
00:05:22
◼
►

[TS]
00:05:24
◼
►

[TS]
00:05:27
◼
►

[TS]
00:05:30
◼
►
Batman now I mentioned I the style here
[TS]
00:05:33
◼
►
is it's fun it is this weird art deco
[TS]
00:05:37
◼
►
kind of style we we've seen this in a
[TS]
00:05:39
◼
►
few movies up
[TS]
00:05:40
◼
►
it's definitely I you know the i always
[TS]
00:05:44
◼
►
think of Max Headroom is being a little
[TS]
00:05:45
◼
►
bit like that although that's a little
[TS]
00:05:47
◼
►
more techy of course the great Super
[TS]
00:05:48
◼
►
Mario Brothers it's anyway but it but it
[TS]
00:05:52
◼
►
is a it's kind of a fun mix of things
[TS]
00:05:55
◼
►
that look old along with some things
[TS]
00:05:56
◼
►
that look uh look modern and his first
[TS]
00:05:59
◼
►
was the designer I think won the Oscar
[TS]
00:06:01
◼
►
for art direction it would visit it

[TS]
00:06:06
◼

00:06:08
◼
►

[TS]
00:06:11
◼
►
in and the young kid and it's very
[TS]
00:06:13
◼
►
clearly playing on the origin of Batman
[TS]
00:06:17
◼
►
it's kind of a fake-out and it's a fake
[TS]
00:06:19
◼
►
ad because it's not it's actually the
[TS]
00:06:20
◼
►
present and they're saved by Batman but
[TS]
00:06:22
◼
►
but they they can't get a cab so they
[TS]
00:06:24
◼
►
decided to cut through a dark dark le
[TS]
00:06:29
◼
►
dangerous Ally because they're dumb
[TS]
00:06:31
◼
►
yeah and that meant save them when i

marketing and all the stuff that opening
[TS]
00:06:44
◼
►
scene when you see the but i think one
[TS]
00:06:48
◼
►
of the descriptions of Gotham City is as
[TS]
00:06:50
◼
►
long as the hell burst from the ground
[TS]
00:06:52
◼
►
and kept on going
[TS]
00:06:53
◼
►
when you see that opening claustrophobic
[TS]
00:06:55
◼
►
shot shot there were people in the
[TS]
00:06:58
◼
►
audience who were clearly not regular

◼
►
york city of this period this is a
[TS]
00:08:01
◼
►
crumbling sleazy metropolis except often

◼
►

with Michael Keaton and Michael Michael
[TS]
00:23:36
◼
►

about Jack Nicholson as jack napier and

00:23:43
◼

he becomes he becomes the Joker unsubtle
[TS]
00:23:46
◼
►
half of the no it'sit's not i meannot a
[TS]
00:23:48

chemical plant which i also just to say
[TS]
00:23:56
◼

again that i don't like that character
[TS]
00:23:58
◼
►
before he gets shot he's like acting
[TS]
00:24:00
◼
►
like a zombie he's just kind of moving
[TS]
00:24:01
◼
►
very slowly and kind of going in and
[TS]
00:24:04
◼
►
it's I don't understand that carry I
[TS]
00:24:05
◼
►
don't even know why that character is
[TS]
00:24:06
◼
►
there it's really bad but but the Joker
[TS]
00:24:09
◼
►
so jack napier who is revealed late in
[TS]
00:24:12
◼
►
the movie in a coincidence that's
[TS]
00:24:14
◼
►
probably unnecessary is the person who
[TS]
00:24:16
◼
►
Bruce Wayne's parents yeah
[TS]
00:24:19
◼
►
f words about that later yeah well we'll

[TS]
00:24:36
◼

resurfaces with the the white face and
[TS]
00:24:41
◼
►
is the is the Joker so they got my
[TS]
00:24:44

◼
►
truck money to Jack Nicholson's house

[TS]
00:25:00
◼

coup to get the guy who was basically

[TS]
00:25:17
◼
►
mean this is this is this isn't this
[TS]
00:25:20
◼
►

about Vicki Vale and I think there's a
[TS]
00:33:29
◼
►
reason for the hands
[TS]
00:33:30
◼
►
I have to know you think which are an

amazing apartment

braid yeah okay just one little braids

00:33:40
◼

on the side of her head going down over

00:33:42
◼
►
her shoulder she might be a jet by now i
[TS]
00:33:44
◼
►
remember being rather irritated at one
[TS]
00:33:47
◼
►
point watching the movie at some point
[TS]
00:33:49
◼
►
it may not have been the first time but
[TS]
00:33:50
◼
►
at a subsequent watching because when
[TS]
00:33:53
◼
►
they introduce her she's you know shown
[TS]
00:33:57
◼
►
to be very capable award-winning
[TS]
00:33:59
◼
►
globe-trotting photojournalist looking
[TS]
00:34:01
◼
►
for the the heavy hard stories
[TS]
00:34:04
◼
►
yeah um and so it's yet Robert walls
[TS]
00:34:07
◼
►
character you know somewhat
[TS]
00:34:08
◼
►
understandably you're going to chase
[TS]
00:34:10
◼
►
Batman it doesn't quite seem to fit
[TS]
00:34:13
◼
►
um and then about halfway through the
[TS]
00:34:17
◼
►
movie or so all of a sudden there's
[TS]
00:34:19
◼
►
apparently nothing left for kim basinger
[TS]
00:34:21
◼
►
to do then scream or dangle from a Ledge
[TS]
00:34:25
◼
►
or cord or something or faint and it's
[TS]
00:34:27
◼
►
like you're not
[TS]
00:34:29
◼
►
she was doing well she could have
[TS]
00:34:30
◼
►
contributed the amount of her dialogue
[TS]
00:34:33
◼
►
that is her screaming in reaction to
[TS]
00:34:34
◼
►
something is like a lot began well okay
[TS]
00:34:37
◼
►
so I like the scene where she's on the
[TS]
00:34:40
◼
►
rooftop and she immediately starts
[TS]
00:34:42
◼
►
taking pictures of Batman fighting in
[TS]
00:34:43
◼
►
the alley right that's good news sense
[TS]
00:34:45
◼
►
like that that's the scene where I'm
[TS]
00:34:47
◼
►
like okay she's doing her job and of
[TS]
00:34:48
◼
►
course right then uses the Old Cape
[TS]
00:34:50
◼
►
trick to steal the film out of her bra
[TS]
00:34:53
◼
►
but I be on Cape trick you okay yeah
[TS]
00:34:57
◼
►
that does that a lot he's like who
[TS]
00:34:59
◼
►
there's a cape and what happens then
[TS]
00:35:01
◼
►
nobody knows it's under the Cape was a
[TS]
00:35:03
◼
►
mystery that's how Batman does it all
[TS]
00:35:05
◼
►
sorts of magic tricks
[TS]
00:35:07
◼
►
anyway so that's good but then you're
[TS]
00:35:09
◼
►
right a other than that she's mostly a
[TS]
00:35:13
◼
►
damsel i do think that when she when
[TS]
00:35:15
◼
►
Alfred brings her into the Batcave
[TS]
00:35:17
◼
►
toward the end but that's a nice
[TS]
00:35:20
◼
►
where she's being like supportive I i
[TS]
00:35:22
◼
►
find her her support for Bruce nice but
[TS]
00:35:25
◼
►
again that's being supportive and not
[TS]
00:35:26
◼
►
you know but at but at the same time
[TS]
00:35:29
◼
►
she's kind of like breaking down his
[TS]
00:35:31
◼
►
shell so there are moments in there
[TS]
00:35:33
◼
►
whenever she's put in any sort of like
[TS]
00:35:34
◼
►
part of the plot like the wind with the
[TS]
00:35:37
◼
►
Joker the art museum is the most
[TS]
00:35:39
◼
►
disappointing one because although she
[TS]
00:35:40
◼
►
she gives a push back to him a little
[TS]
00:35:43
◼
►
bit you know like when when she goes to
[TS]
00:35:45
◼
►
comfort him with because he got covered
[TS]
00:35:47
◼
►
in water and he's melting like it's just
[TS]
00:35:50
◼
►

◼
►

[TS]
00:35:56
◼
►
Museum attack actually but I i wanted to
[TS]
00:36:00
◼

◼
►
movie not the first off the outfit on

00:36:13
◼
►
staggering
[TS]
00:36:15
◼
►

[TS]
00:36:18
◼
►
shoulder pads but it looks literally
[TS]
00:36:20
◼
►

[TS]
00:36:22
◼
►
so huge and padded it is amazing
[TS]
00:36:24
◼
►

[TS]
00:36:26
◼
►
and Robert wool yeah there's a lot of
[TS]
00:36:29
◼
►
shoulder pad action in this room well
[TS]
00:36:30
◼
►

00:36:32
◼
►

[TS]
00:36:34
◼
►
what it is but that one first
[TS]
00:36:38
◼
►
anchorwoman is the most extreme of all
[TS]
00:36:40
◼
►
of them but i really loved the joke
[TS]
00:36:42
◼
►
where they discovered that the cosmetics
[TS]
00:36:44
◼
►
are poisoned and they don't know exactly
[TS]
00:36:45
◼
►
where the poison is and then for the
[TS]
00:36:48
◼
►
rest of the the movie the TV anchors
[TS]
00:36:50
◼
►
have no makeup on and they've been made
[TS]
00:36:52
◼
►
to have blemishes and things all over
[TS]
00:36:54
◼
►
their faces that kills me after your
[TS]
00:36:56
◼
►
hair their hair looks awful
[TS]
00:36:58
◼

[TS]
00:37:00
◼
►

[TS]
00:37:02
◼
►
just a joke
[TS]
00:37:02
◼
►
yeah and it's mainly mainly affects TV
[TS]
00:37:05
◼
►
anchors Vicki Vale is doing fine

◼
►

►
the museum but to meet Bruce but that is
[TS]
00:37:20
◼
►
a he's not meeting her there so that's a
[TS]
00:37:22
◼
►
bad sign i think that this looks like a
[TS]
00:37:24
◼
►
job for Batman and what happens is the
[TS]
00:37:27
◼
►
gas the Joker the Joker attacks they

00:40:31
◼
►
worse but it would have been very
[TS]
00:40:33
◼
►
different from what we get with with

00:41:08
◼

generic bands versions of various movie

[TS]
00:41:43
◼

yeah yeah I know right i mean
[TS]
00:41:45
◼

that'sthat's i do think that it's a
[TS]
00:41:47
◼
►
missed opportunity there it's also just
[TS]
00:41:49
◼
►
a sign of the left hand and the right
[TS]
00:41:50
◼
►
hand not knowing what each other was
[TS]
00:41:51
◼
►
doing that by tim burton well so I have
[TS]
00:41:55
◼
►
a lot of theories about this movie that
[TS]
00:41:56
◼
►
maybe i'll get to before we
[TS]
00:41:58
◼
►
it's a batman returns that but there's
[TS]
00:42:00
◼
►
definitely the conflict between the
[TS]
00:42:02
◼
►
studio and the marketing and the giant
[TS]
00:42:04
◼
►
machine and Tim Burton who likes to make
[TS]
00:42:06
◼
►
weird quirky tweet little movies there
[TS]
00:42:10
◼
►
was a lot of conflict creatively about
[TS]
00:42:12
◼
►
this movie and I think it's amazing that
[TS]
00:42:14
◼
►
that it turns out as well as it does
[TS]
00:42:16
◼
►
given all of that
[TS]
00:42:18
◼
►
well I mean you had John Peters
[TS]
00:42:20
◼
►
producing or executive producing and he
[TS]
00:42:23
◼
►
was kind of insane mom you know and I'm
[TS]
00:42:26
◼
►
sure prince was his idea and and going
[TS]
00:42:29
◼
►
here let's do this and let's do that
[TS]
00:42:31
◼
►
let's do this and and I know that the
[TS]
00:42:33
◼
►
ending was not tim burton's idea that
[TS]
00:42:36
◼
►
wasn't in the script it was John Peters
[TS]
00:42:38
◼
►
going hey would it be awesome if they
[TS]
00:42:39
◼
►
like climb to the top of the cathedral
[TS]
00:42:41
◼
►
and the whole thing took place up there
[TS]
00:42:42
◼
►
and why do we kill Vicki Vale and then
[TS]
00:42:44
◼
►
Batman will get really angry
[TS]
00:42:46
◼
►
it's like okay and and he went ahead and
[TS]
00:42:50
◼
►
had the thing constructed without
[TS]
00:42:52
◼
►
clearing it with anybody was just like
[TS]
00:42:54
◼
►
here this is gonna be the end of the
[TS]
00:42:55
◼
►
movie and they actually and like they
[TS]
00:42:59
◼
►
asked to Burton's like why are we
[TS]
00:43:00
◼
►
climbing to the top of the thing because
[TS]
00:43:02
◼
►
i don't know we'll figure it out when
[TS]
00:43:03
◼
►
you get there and they had to redo that
[TS]
00:43:06
◼
►
so that's that's kinda like the movie a
[TS]
00:43:07
◼
►
microcosm the original screen
[TS]
00:43:09
◼
►
screenwriter was a guy named sam ham and
[TS]
00:43:12
◼
►
then a guy named warrants car and came
[TS]
00:43:14
◼
►
in after it so alliteration was
[TS]
00:43:16
◼
►
absolutely important while riding right
[TS]
00:43:21
◼
►
but I mean yeah thank you
[TS]
00:43:22
◼
►
I and my understanding is the Sam ham
[TS]
00:43:25
◼
►
script was fairly straight and you have
[TS]
00:43:30
◼
►
monkey you have lines that survived of
[TS]
00:43:33
◼
►
the the the rewrite and temperance
[TS]
00:43:37
◼
►
direction that get completely turned
[TS]
00:43:39
◼
►
over like the the Joker cylindrical e it
[TS]
00:43:44
◼
►
you might join me for a week after the
[TS]
00:43:47
◼
►
weird confrontation between Bruce Wayne
[TS]
00:43:50
◼
►
and the Joker and Vicki and he plays it
[TS]
00:43:52
◼
►
for Laughs things like that there is so
[TS]
00:43:55
◼
►
much dissonance in this movie between
[TS]
00:43:59
◼
►
temper and sensibilities and and the
[TS]
00:44:01
◼
►
screenwriters is this a serious movie or
[TS]
00:44:05
◼
►
is tim burton taking the piss out of
[TS]
00:44:07
◼
►
superheroes in general because he's Tim
[TS]
00:44:11
◼
►
you're right it'sit's it's amazing that
[TS]
00:44:13
◼
►
this movie is this is successful as it
[TS]
00:44:15
◼
►
is because these parts don't fit no no
[TS]
00:44:20
◼
►
they really don't know there are other
[TS]
00:44:21
◼
►
parts to that that will get 22 because
[TS]
00:44:25
◼
►
there's that the whole romantic comedy
[TS]
00:44:26
◼
►
part that comes back again later
[TS]
00:44:28
◼
►
that's like a totally other movie said
[TS]
00:44:30
◼
►
that also happens in here it's like When

◼
►
Harry Met Sally if Harry was Batman

►

[TS]
00:44:42
◼

00:44:44
◼
►
dancing around the prince and I think
[TS]
00:44:45
◼
►

[TS]
00:45:03
◼
►
face on the one-dollar bill and I like
[TS]
00:45:05
◼

we're right where he has the little
[TS]
00:56:11
◼

metal tray so that he doesn't die

00:56:13
◼
►
I don't know it is a little coincidental
[TS]
00:56:16
◼
►
yeah I I don't understand why this scene
[TS]
00:56:19
◼
►
is the way it is because because if
[TS]
00:56:21
◼
►
anyone if the Joker is going to shoot
[TS]
00:56:24
◼
►
anyone anywhere
[TS]
00:56:26
◼
►
why would he aim for the heart he would
[TS]
00:56:27
◼

do like various parts of the body i want
[TS]
00:56:29
◼
►
you twitch and you know yet he would

[TS]
00:56:34
◼

it's Chinatown it's trying to town shake
[TS]
00:56:36
◼
►
at my only explanation and it's not a
[TS]
00:56:38
◼
►
good one
[TS]
00:56:39
◼
►
is the idea that that Bruce Wayne is
[TS]
00:56:42
◼
►
trying to be chivalrous and by time to
[TS]
00:56:45
◼
►
figure this out
[TS]
00:56:46
◼
►
yeah and if you keep intention on
[TS]
00:56:48
◼
►
himself and not Vicki less likely that
[TS]
00:56:50
◼
►
she's going to get her that but like I
[TS]
00:56:52
◼
►
said that still weak as water and it's a
[TS]
00:56:54
◼
►
really strange scene and it's because
[TS]
00:56:57
◼
►
they need the Joker to shoot Bruce there
[TS]
00:57:00
◼
►
so that he can say the dance with the
[TS]
00:57:01
◼
►
devil line
[TS]
00:57:02
◼
►
yeah which he always knows when he kills
[TS]
00:57:04
◼
►
people accept all those other times when
[TS]
00:57:06
◼
►
he doesn't say we kill people have a
[TS]
00:57:08
◼
►
right to killed several people by this
[TS]
00:57:10
◼
►
one saat yeah also that one time he said
[TS]
00:57:12
◼
►
it and pointed the gun to get in and
[TS]
00:57:14
◼
►
didn't didn't do it so you know yet but
[TS]
00:57:16
◼
►
he always telling you always done if you
[TS]
00:57:18
◼
►
missed it was being prepared
[TS]
00:57:20
◼
►
ok so he's not the most consistent guys
[TS]
00:57:22
◼
►
now I'm just I'm just grumbling about
[TS]
00:57:25
◼
►
that plot point so when he says that
[TS]
00:57:27
◼
►
though Michael Keaton does reaction that
[TS]
00:57:29
◼

01:00:14
◼

Batman logo and he flies in front of the
[TS]
01:00:15
◼
►
Moon thereby creating a batman logo

[TS]
01:00:22
◼
►
you can never have that appear next to
[TS]
01:00:24
◼
►
any actual actors because we're going to
[TS]
01:00:26
◼
►
make maybe like have you make a model of
[TS]
01:00:27
◼
►
it is that ok what we're going to do is
[TS]
01:00:29
◼
►
we're going to make a bad plane model
[TS]
01:00:30
◼
►
that's going to fly around and then
[TS]
01:00:32
◼
►
we're going to have a thing that we put
[TS]
01:00:33
◼
►
on like a golf cart that we dragged
[TS]
01:00:35
◼
►
along r1 street and and and what we'll
[TS]
01:00:38
◼
►
have is the bad plane will just get shot
[TS]
01:00:40
◼
►
by a gun and and crash and again another
[TS]
01:00:43
◼
►
young about apparently the original
[TS]
01:00:45
◼
►
script called for the choker to have a
[TS]
01:00:46
◼
►
tank to shoot the bad play down and then
[TS]
01:00:48
◼
►
for budgetary reasons his tank is
[TS]
01:00:50
◼
►
replaced with a gun home a gun while
[TS]
01:00:53
◼
►
somewhere in here is the scene that is
[TS]
01:00:55
◼
►
most tim burton e in the movie to me
[TS]
01:00:57
◼
►
which is when the plane grabs all the
[TS]
01:01:00
◼
►
balloons and flies away
[TS]
01:01:02
◼
►
oh yeah those balloons I'm positive are
[TS]
01:01:06
◼
►
based on the same sketches that led to
[TS]
01:01:08
◼
►
nightmare before christmas know those
[TS]
01:01:11
◼
►
blues are the same toys that are under
[TS]
01:01:13
◼
►
trees because those more than anything
[TS]
01:01:17
◼
►
else the movie say hi I'm Tim Burton I
[TS]
01:01:20
◼
►
like stuff that looks like this
[TS]
01:01:21
◼
►
yeah I do like that scene where Batman's
[TS]
01:01:23
◼
►
got his like a little claw or whatever
[TS]
01:01:25
◼
►
on the bad plane that can grab the
[TS]
01:01:27
◼
►
balloons and and it leads to the the
[TS]
01:01:29
◼
►
Joker getting very upset he took my
[TS]
01:01:31
◼
►
balloons
[TS]
01:01:32
◼
►
I love that he had that yeah that the
[TS]
01:01:35
◼
►
parts that part's good a poor Bob I like
[TS]
01:01:38
◼
►
the idea that the balloons themselves
[TS]
01:01:40
◼
►
are full of poison gas and will be
[TS]
01:01:42
◼
►
released on the unsuspecting public
[TS]
01:01:44
◼
►
that's kind of fun you can think about
[TS]
01:01:46
◼
►
that when you're watching the
[TS]
01:01:47
◼
►
thanksgiving parade next year that's i
[TS]
01:01:50
◼
►
mean that's like that classic Joker
[TS]
01:01:51
◼
►
style plot right i mean i'm down yeah oh
[TS]
01:01:54
◼
►
yeah oh yeah why is it that they get
[TS]
01:01:56
◼
►
bigger as the gas is released
[TS]
01:01:59
◼
►
I'm just confused about that point it's
[TS]
01:02:01
◼
►
physics everything with distance in that
[TS]
01:02:03
◼
►
entire sequence does not make any sense
[TS]
01:02:05
◼
►
like the size of the balloons or
[TS]
01:02:06
◼
►
whatever size they need to be the
[TS]
01:02:08
◼
►
proximity of the balloons to the Joker
[TS]
01:02:10
◼
►
is whatever they need to be it
[TS]
01:02:12
◼
►
yeah it's don't worry about it
[TS]
01:02:14
◼
►
everything's great that point though we
[TS]
01:02:15
◼
►
get action hero robert wall because he
[TS]
01:02:18
◼
►
master himself except a baseball bat
[TS]
01:02:21
◼
►
what is he doing you're not the hero of
[TS]
01:02:24
◼
►
this movie sir you don't know that they
[TS]
01:02:26
◼
►
could rename it later call it knocks man
[TS]
01:02:28
◼
►
yeah this thing is hard time cap it's
[TS]
01:02:31
◼
►
the journalists in the bad man that'll
[TS]
01:02:33
◼
►
be wanted to go you know he could just
[TS]
01:02:35
◼
►
as easily be in the suit to do we really
[TS]
01:02:39
◼
►
know this the scene ends with the climax
[TS]
01:02:42
◼
►
where they all run up into a tower and
[TS]
01:02:43
◼
►
fight because there's always a towering
[TS]
01:02:46
◼
►
it all follows yeah you're right exactly
[TS]
01:02:47
◼
►
right hand there's got to be a tower and
[TS]
01:02:49
◼
►
here it is a giant Bell falls down an
[TS]
01:02:52
◼
►
oxide stairs so that no one can chase
[TS]
01:02:54
◼
►
them up except also conveniently at the
[TS]
01:02:56
◼
►
top of the tower there's like ten Joker
[TS]
01:02:58
◼
►
goons that doesn't make any sense
[TS]
01:02:59
◼
►
uh-huh yeah I don't know when those guys
[TS]
01:03:01
◼
►
came from don't worry about it
[TS]
01:03:03
◼
►
they're there and again it's it's a
[TS]
01:03:04
◼
►
variety of goods yeah they're judging
[TS]
01:03:07
◼
►
goons and there's ninja goon yeah this
[TS]
01:03:09
◼
►
is you know cartwheeling goon yeah mhm
[TS]
01:03:12
◼
►
diversification yeah yeah you got a
[TS]
01:03:14
◼
►
different kinds of guns and that allows
[TS]
01:03:15
◼
►
the Joker to dance and make jokes while
[TS]
01:03:18
◼
►
Batman has to fight various goons well
[TS]
01:03:21
◼
►
yeah this is this is not one of my
[TS]
01:03:24
◼
►
favorite parts of the movie sounds like
[TS]
01:03:25
◼
►
the perfunctory we have to have a boss
[TS]
01:03:27
◼
►
fight at the end of the movie thing
[TS]
01:03:30
◼
►
yeah and that's what it you know knowing
[TS]
01:03:32
◼
►
that now it kind of shows through in the
[TS]
01:03:35
◼
►
direction
[TS]
01:03:35
◼
►
yeah because tim burton didn't want to
[TS]
01:03:37
◼
►
do that now for the ending that there's
[TS]
01:03:39
◼
►
a problem you always have with batman
[TS]
01:03:41
◼
►
vs. the Joker which is Batman is strong
[TS]
01:03:44
◼
►
in the Joker isn't yeah so if that man
[TS]
01:03:48
◼
►
punches Joker even once that's kind of
[TS]
01:03:51
◼
►
the end of the game
[TS]
01:03:52
◼
►
yeah once you get to the Joker you
[TS]
01:03:54
◼
►
that's the one
[TS]
01:03:55
◼
►
once you can get get to him yeah well
[TS]
01:03:57
◼
►
and we'll see this again in batman
[TS]
01:03:58
◼
►
returns but in the comics you know
[TS]
01:04:00
◼
►
Joker's got this wiry insane strength
[TS]
01:04:02
◼
►
and Batman happens did not be wearing
[TS]
01:04:04
◼
►
armor so it's a bit of a fairer fine
[TS]
01:04:08
◼
►
and yet we have just completely missed
[TS]
01:04:11
◼
►
actually the the issue that of Batman
[TS]
01:04:17
◼
►
secret origin which they're about to
[TS]
01:04:20
◼
►
have out here on top of this bill I I so
[TS]
01:04:22
◼
►
yeah they we get the dance with the
[TS]
01:04:24
◼
►
devil in the pale moon
[TS]
01:04:25
◼
►
like all that and it's revealed that
[TS]
01:04:27
◼
►
like i said earlier that the Joker uh we
[TS]
01:04:30
◼
►
went jet when he was young jack napier
[TS]
01:04:32
◼
►
he was the one who shot Bruce Wayne's
[TS]
01:04:34
◼
►
parents and there's that moment of like
[TS]
01:04:36
◼
►
you you know you created me and you
[TS]
01:04:39
◼
►
created me uh and even the Joker the
[TS]
01:04:42
◼
►
Joker makes fun of that immediately
[TS]
01:04:44
◼
►
oh sure you got to say that I say you
[TS]
01:04:46
◼
►
are you crazy you got to say I created
[TS]
01:04:48
◼
►
you like he doesn't even listen to him
[TS]
01:04:50
◼
►
so how do people feel about this in the
[TS]
01:04:52
◼
►
context of the movie i don't i don't
[TS]
01:04:53
◼
►
like it in the context of Batman but
[TS]
01:04:55
◼
►
maybe it works I don't mind it here it
[TS]
01:04:57
◼
►
as a single movie find their dark
[TS]
01:05:00
◼
►
mirrors of each other that gives him a
[TS]
01:05:03
◼
►
little extra but that's fine i don't
[TS]
01:05:05
◼
►
mind did the writers trying to add some
[TS]
01:05:07
◼
►
depth in here somewhere
[TS]
01:05:08
◼
►
well that was Burton's idea ok i like
[TS]
01:05:12
◼
►
the idea that we get Batman's origin in
[TS]
01:05:14
◼
►
passing and to make it yet to make it
[TS]
01:05:17
◼
►
relevant in some way I think you could
[TS]
01:05:18
◼
►
have probably made it relevant where he
[TS]
01:05:20
◼
►
was killed by somebody like jack napier
[TS]
01:05:23
◼
►
and not have it literally be him and
[TS]
01:05:25
◼
►
still have a connection there because
[TS]
01:05:27
◼
►
that's an awful lot of coincidence but
[TS]
01:05:29
◼
►
it's fine and you know and that's
[TS]
01:05:30
◼
►
sometimes that this is handled in
[TS]
01:05:31
◼
►
different ways
[TS]
01:05:32
◼
►
I mean I used the person who is usually
[TS]
01:05:34
◼
►
identified its the killer is this
[TS]
01:05:36
◼
►
character called Joe Chill and even that
[TS]
01:05:38
◼
►
some people did not like because they
[TS]
01:05:40
◼
►
like the idea of more that like the you
[TS]
01:05:42
◼
►
know that we will he will never know
[TS]
01:05:44
◼
►
right and that he and right he will go
[TS]
01:05:46
◼
►
out every night and fight crime and
[TS]
01:05:47
◼
►
never happened he's never going to be
[TS]
01:05:49
◼
►
able to 100% Avengers parents because as
[TS]
01:05:53
◼
►
some faceless hood is the person and you
[TS]
01:05:55
◼
►
know he has to fight all crime to to
[TS]
01:05:57
◼
►
confront that as opposed to like nope
[TS]
01:05:59
◼
►
it's a guy he's got a name and a face
[TS]
01:06:01
◼
►
and maybe I can get him even some days
[TS]
01:06:03
◼
►
and they're terribly there's at least
[TS]
01:06:04
◼
►
one story where that happens so to then
[TS]
01:06:07
◼
►
make it even be the joker
[TS]
01:06:09
◼
►
huh yeah not a fan yeah that's that's
[TS]
01:06:12
◼
►
the point actually that glint and here's
[TS]
01:06:15
◼
►
where i cite the previous source of Glen
[TS]
01:06:17
◼
►
Weldon from pop culture happy are wrote
[TS]
01:06:19
◼
►
a really really good book i really love
[TS]
01:06:22
◼
►
the caped crusade and his argument is
[TS]
01:06:25
◼
►
that by doing this by making the Joker
[TS]

◼
►
the guy who killed Batman's parents
[TS]
01:06:31
◼
►
you've turned this from a hero story
[TS]
01:06:34
◼
►
into a revenge entry fee and and
[TS]
01:06:38
◼
►
as far as Batman goes I don't like it
[TS]
01:06:41
◼
►
but as far as a self-contained movie
[TS]
01:06:44
◼
►
where spoiler alert the Joker dies at
[TS]
01:06:47
◼
►
the end
[TS]
01:06:47
◼
►
yeah it kind of makes sense to sort of
[TS]
01:06:50
◼
►
wrap it all up in the one store
[TS]
01:06:52
◼
►
ok I'll by-the-sea see my my headcanon
[TS]
01:06:55
◼
►
is that was that mean it probably still
[TS]
01:07:00
◼
►
is that it's not really the Joker or
[TS]
01:07:05
◼
►
jack napier or whoever you want to call
[TS]
01:07:07
◼
►
them at that point it's that that's what
[TS]
01:07:09
◼
►
Batman is imagining now and that every
[TS]
01:07:12
◼
►
night he goes out he sees someone
[TS]
01:07:15
◼
►
different doing it and that's part of
[TS]
01:07:17
◼
►
his part of his little quirk about that
[TS]
01:07:20
◼
►
is psychosis about that so you know to
[TS]
01:07:24
◼
►
me it doesn't have to be the Joker in
[TS]
01:07:27
◼
►
this but it makes sense that he would
[TS]
01:07:28
◼
►
picture him this time so that I think
[TS]
01:07:32
◼
►
this is basically the end of the movie
[TS]
01:07:33
◼
►
they they they fight they go for one
[TS]
01:07:35
◼
►
last press conference
[TS]
01:07:36
◼
►
yes that's right there's a cliffhanger
[TS]
01:07:38
◼
►
and then they reverse and then the Joker
[TS]
01:07:41
◼
►
drops and dies and and there's a press
[TS]
01:07:45
◼
►
conference and Commissioner Gordon
[TS]
01:07:47
◼
►
explains that they've been given a bat
[TS]
01:07:49
◼
►
signal and we pan of intensity CA
[TS]
01:07:51
◼
►
vigilantes and AH gave us the signal we
[TS]
01:07:56
◼
►
needed one because we didn't have any
[TS]
01:07:58
◼
►
spotlights so nobody turn it on though
[TS]
01:08:00
◼
►
because that is going to rich
[TS]
01:08:03
◼
►
yeah you could be and that's that's a
[TS]
01:08:06
◼
►
that's Batman I i was i saw this movie a
[TS]
01:08:12
◼
►
lot in the I guess early nineties and I
[TS]
01:08:15
◼
►
was a little worried to revisit it
[TS]
01:08:17
◼
►
because i haven't revisited in quite a
[TS]
01:08:19
◼
►
while and you know I i enjoyed watching
[TS]
01:08:23
◼
►
it it's got lots of issues but I i like
[TS]
01:08:26
◼
►
the the the way it looks and I like
[TS]
01:08:29
◼
►
Michael Keaton and I like Jack
[TS]
01:08:31
◼
►
Nicholson's totally wild performance and
[TS]
01:08:34
◼
►
I you know I I i enjoyed watching it
[TS]
01:08:37
◼
►
even though it's definitely of you know
[TS]
01:08:40
◼
►
of its time
[TS]
01:08:41
◼
►
what did everybody else think about this
[TS]
01:08:42
◼
►
one I continue to enjoy it
[TS]
01:08:44
◼
►
yeah not only as much as I did the first
[TS]
01:08:46
◼
►
time I saw it we've had a lot more
[TS]
01:08:47
◼
►
superhero movie since then right i mean
[TS]
01:08:49
◼
►
that's part
[TS]
01:08:50
◼
►
that is is that this was the novelty of
[TS]
01:08:52
◼
►
a movie like a big-budget movie with
[TS]
01:08:55
◼
►
real actors about Batman it was kind of
[TS]
01:08:58
◼
►
a big I mean not just the marketing part
[TS]
01:09:00
◼
►
was a big deal to have this much talent
[TS]
01:09:04
◼
►
make and money assembled to make a
[TS]
01:09:07
◼
►
superhero movie and now of course we get
[TS]
01:09:09
◼
►
to eight or ten days a year but
[TS]
01:09:12
◼
►
comparing it to modern superhero movies
[TS]
01:09:14
◼
►
everyone now wants everybody to make
[TS]
01:09:16
◼
►
sense they try like especially DC movies
[TS]
01:09:19
◼
►
we try to have motivations for all the
[TS]
01:09:21
◼
►
characters but a madman like tim burton
[TS]
01:09:25
◼
►
is willing to say all right jack
[TS]
01:09:27
◼
►
nicholson remember Cesar Romero double
[TS]
01:09:32
◼
►
yeah that's when my brother made me
[TS]
01:09:36
◼
►
watch batman begins and we're talking
[TS]
01:09:39
◼
►
about you haven't seen Batman Begins yet

01:09:42
◼
►

[TS]
01:09:44
◼
►
i'm watching batman begins and I've got
[TS]
01:09:47
◼
►
this movie competing with it in the back
[TS]
01:09:50
◼
►
of my head and I wound up at all
[TS]
01:09:53
◼
►
I almost I want up disliking batman
[TS]
01:09:56
◼
►
begins because it was too much of an
[TS]
01:09:58
◼
►
effort to make Batman realistic and yes
[TS]
01:10:03
◼
►
and when you when you when you get to
[TS]
01:10:06
◼
►
the point where Bruce Wayne puts on bat
[TS]
01:10:09
◼
►
it's got to be a whole lot weirder
[TS]
01:10:11
◼
►
otherwise i'm sitting here going why is
[TS]
01:10:13
◼
►
he putting on bad ears if i love this i
[TS]
01:10:16
◼
►
love the 1989 batman because it is just
[TS]
01:10:21
◼
►
weird enough to make me forgive a whole
[TS]
01:10:24
◼
►
lot of stuff that doesn't make sense i
[TS]
01:10:26
◼
►
think mostly holds up as you said you
[TS]
01:10:29
◼
►
know taking into account that yes it
[TS]
01:10:31
◼
►
this is tim burton and and tim burton
[TS]
01:10:33
◼
►
has a unique vision but um it holds up
[TS]
01:10:37
◼
►
for be overall i have quibbles aplenty
[TS]
01:10:39
◼
►
here and there but i can still sit down
[TS]
01:10:44
◼
►
and watch it again and enjoy most of it
[TS]
01:10:46
◼
►
yeah I enjoyed as a fusion of a little
[TS]
01:10:50
◼
►
bit of the Adam West style a little bit
[TS]
01:10:52
◼
►
of Gary Miller a little bit of Danny
[TS]
01:10:54
◼
►
O'Neil you know a little bit of neal
[TS]
01:10:57
◼
►
adams i love that it
[TS]
01:11:00
◼
►
spawned it sort of gave us the animated
[TS]
01:11:02
◼
►
series which is my favorite Batman of
[TS]
01:11:05
◼
►
all and and for me I mean Batman Begins
[TS]
01:11:09
◼
►
i really liked it when I saw it in the
[TS]
01:11:11
◼
►
theater and then you know I i didn't
[TS]
01:11:14
◼
►
watch it for a while and then the Dark
[TS]
01:11:16
◼
►
Knight came out I well I should rewatch
[TS]
01:11:18
◼
►
batman begins and I didn't like it as
[TS]
01:11:20
◼
►
much and i still have not gotten all the
[TS]
01:11:23
◼
►
way through dark knight rises because it
[TS]
01:11:25
◼
►
is just so oppressively wrong and you
[TS]
01:11:30
◼
►
know and so in retrospect I like the
[TS]
01:11:32
◼
►
Nolan movies less and less as they went
[TS]
01:11:34
◼
►
on and I still really enjoy this
[TS]
01:11:36
◼
►
I don't need the plot to make total
[TS]
01:11:38
◼
►
sense I just think that's good
[TS]
01:11:40
◼
►
well i'm watching yeah that's not going
[TS]
01:11:42
◼
►
to mean it's more like comic book
[TS]
01:11:44
◼
►
actually it is that it is very
[TS]
01:11:45
◼
►
straightforward in a way that so many of
[TS]
01:11:47
◼
►
these movies that have multiple villains
[TS]
01:11:48
◼
►
aren't like look the Joker is bad and
[TS]
01:11:50
◼
►
he's crazy and he wants to cause cause
[TS]
01:11:53
◼
►
trouble for Batman and he is interested
[TS]
01:11:56
◼
►
in Vicki Vale and making him is this
[TS]
01:11:58
◼
►
next art project and he wants to kill
[TS]
01:12:01
◼
►
people in Gotham City like I mean that
[TS]
01:12:03
◼
►
he doesn't have a grand said
[TS]
01:12:06
◼
►
imaginations that are going to lead to
[TS]
01:12:08
◼
►
an outcome hehe is just a comic book
[TS]
01:12:11
◼
►
villain who's trying to do bad stuff and
[TS]
01:12:14
◼
►
Batman stops him that's I you know it's
[TS]
01:12:16
◼
►
refreshing in that way that that's kind
[TS]
01:12:18
◼
►
of all there is to this movie it's dead
[TS]
01:12:20
◼
►
that's it it's like there's Batman
[TS]
01:12:21
◼
►
there's the Joker they interact and did
[TS]
01:12:24
◼
►
the Joker plunges off of a building in
[TS]
01:12:26
◼
►
his dead and that's it
[TS]
01:12:27
◼
►
Tony your verdict on Batman I it's fine
[TS]
01:12:31
◼
►
it's mine
[TS]
01:12:34
◼
►
the people who made this should not be
[TS]
01:12:36
◼
►
hunted down and killed for sport
[TS]
01:12:38
◼
►
oh no this this is for its future it's
[TS]
01:12:41
◼
►
so many bad memories current anyone I i
[TS]
01:12:44
◼
►
like the version of The Joker I I think
[TS]
01:12:47
◼
►
I'm less impressed with this version of
[TS]
01:12:49
◼
►
Batman than than the rest of you to me
[TS]
01:12:52
◼
►
he's a little blah the action sequences
[TS]
01:12:54
◼
►
have not aged particularly well but
[TS]
01:12:56
◼
►
maybe they were more exciting at the
[TS]
01:12:58
◼
►
no I do like weirdo Bruce Wayne I had
[TS]
01:13:02
◼
►
not remember that and that was that was
[TS]
01:13:03
◼
►
kind of a treat to discover that but I'd
[TS]
01:13:07
◼
►
I feel like I mean and this is this is
[TS]
01:13:09
◼
►
not necessarily a problem with this
[TS]
01:13:10
◼
►
movie so much as a lot of Batman and
[TS]
01:13:12
◼
►
general is sometimes Batman is not very
[TS]
01:13:15
◼
►
exciting and it's his villains that are
[TS]
01:13:16
◼
►
the interesting fun and I get the sense
[TS]
01:13:19
◼
►
that maybe tim burton does not care that
[TS]
01:13:21
◼
►
much about Batman and that this movie is
[TS]
01:13:24
◼
►
kind of only a lot more about the Joker
[TS]
01:13:26
◼
►
and this whole will talk about Batman
[TS]
01:13:28
◼
►
Returns shortly but Batman it can be
[TS]
01:13:32
◼
►
boring and I think he's especially
[TS]
01:13:33
◼
►
boring when he's just kinda by himself
[TS]
01:13:35
◼
►
and that's why I think a lot of stories
[TS]
01:13:38
◼
►
he gets paired with other people and
[TS]
01:13:39
◼
►
that that's gonna be fun whether that's
[TS]
01:13:41
◼
►
Robin or Commissioner Gordon and we get
[TS]
01:13:44
◼
►
a little bit of that here with with
[TS]
01:13:46
◼
►
vicki vale but not a lot and so Batman I
[TS]
01:13:49
◼
►
in this particular film comes across as
[TS]
01:13:51
◼
►
kind of boring a lot and I think that's
[TS]
01:13:53
◼
►
a little unfortunate when Commissioner
[TS]
01:13:54
◼
►
Gordon is a nonentity in this to which
[TS]
01:13:56
◼
►
is too bad
[TS]
01:13:57
◼
►
yeah i mean he's there but I want to
[TS]
01:13:59
◼
►
springboard off something Tony said
[TS]
01:14:01
◼
►
because dangerous coming out of this
[TS]
01:14:04
◼
►
absolutely everyone talked about how
[TS]
01:14:08
◼
►
much fun jack nicholson was and nobody
[TS]
01:14:10
◼
►
talked about Michael Keaton and everyone
[TS]
01:14:13
◼
►
said oh I get it
[TS]
01:14:14
◼
►
the villains are the interesting part of
[TS]
01:14:16
◼
►
the villains add the color and the
[TS]
01:14:17
◼
►
excitement to the story and I think that
[TS]
01:14:20
◼
►
led directly to what happens in batman
[TS]
01:14:23
◼
►
returns
[TS]
01:14:23
◼
►
mmm yeah I think you're right yeah yeah
[TS]
01:14:26
◼
►
I mean Keaton is easily my favorite
[TS]
01:14:28
◼
►
thing in the movie and like I said he's
[TS]
01:14:30
◼
►
still my favorite movie Batman so Batman
[TS]
01:14:33
◼
►
Returns then happened and i'm pretty
[TS]
01:14:38
◼
►
sure i'm going to tell you how i feel
[TS]
01:14:40
◼
►
about batman returns so that was that
[TS]
01:14:42
◼
►
was nineteen ninety two three years
[TS]
01:14:44
◼
►
so I've got a theory about batman
[TS]
01:14:45
◼
►
returns I will I will give you my full
[TS]
01:14:47
◼
►
disclosure upfront i saw batman returns
[TS]
01:14:49
◼
►
in the theater in 1992 and I hated it
[TS]
01:14:51
◼
►
and i have not seen it since and i
[TS]
01:14:54
◼
►
watched it for this podcast and let me
[TS]
01:14:55
◼
►
tell ya
[TS]
01:14:56
◼
►
ah twenty-one-year-old me has excellent
[TS]
01:15:01
◼
►
taste in detecting haha because batman
[TS]
01:15:06
◼
►
returns is a piece of crap and i will i
[TS]
01:15:09
◼
►
will argue with those who think
[TS]
01:15:10
◼
►
otherwise but here's here's my theory
[TS]
01:15:12
◼
►
because i think it's i think it's
[TS]
01:15:14
◼
►
garbage i think it is I think it is so
[TS]
01:15:15
◼
►
terrible and and seeing it again
[TS]
01:15:18
◼
►
yeah it's so terrible but here's the
[TS]
01:15:20
◼
►
here's the reason why one tim burton i'm
[TS]
01:15:22
◼
►
not a tim burton fan
[TS]
01:15:24
◼
►
Batman is a movie that is compromised by
[TS]
01:15:27
◼
►
all of the studio oversight the producer
[TS]
01:15:30
◼
►
oversight the marketing message all of
[TS]
01:15:32
◼
►
that Tim Burton has said he doesn't like
[TS]
01:15:35
◼
►
Batman the movie he doesn't like it he's
[TS]
01:15:37
◼
►
not he thinks it's boring
[TS]
01:15:38
◼
►
I think Batman is not a movie the timber
[TS]
01:15:41
◼
►
and really wanted to make or like to
[TS]
01:15:43
◼
►
make and he didn't get to make the movie
[TS]
01:15:44
◼
►
he wanted and investment returns after
[TS]
01:15:46
◼
►
Batman with such a financial success
[TS]
01:15:48
◼
►
they let tim burton make whatever he
[TS]
01:15:50
◼
►
wanted and the result is a terrible
[TS]
01:15:52
◼
►
movie because the only reason Batman is
[TS]
01:15:54
◼
►
watchable is because they didn't let tim
[TS]
01:15:56
◼
►
burton be Tim Burton because tim burton
[TS]
01:15:58
◼
►
being tim burton is the recipe for a bad
[TS]
01:16:00
◼
►
movie not a bad movie but not a good
[TS]
01:16:02
◼
►
comic book movie i chatted with Glenn
[TS]
01:16:04
◼
►
weldon at a book release party and i
[TS]
01:16:07
◼
►
told him that i was a guy i really loved
[TS]
01:16:10
◼
►
the book although I thought he was too
[TS]
01:16:11
◼
►
unkind to the tim burton movies and he
[TS]
01:16:15
◼
►
said that is an opinion that some people
[TS]
01:16:17
◼
►
have and so but after the first is so I
[TS]
01:16:22
◼
►
was thinking about batman returns as I
[TS]
01:16:24
◼
►
remembered it
[TS]
01:16:25
◼
►
I watched it for the first time just
[TS]
01:16:28
◼
►
before we started recording and I Oh
[TS]
01:16:31
◼
►
Glenn weldon an apology
[TS]
01:16:33
◼
►
so as you know this movie is not good
[TS]
01:16:36
◼

about wes anderson movies which is they

01:16:59
◼

whatever the sensibility is that he's
[TS]
01:17:00
◼

trying to get across it obviously really
[TS]
01:17:02
◼

works for him and people who like his

01:17:04
◼

movies and it doesn't work for me like I
[TS]
01:17:05
◼

just it's all just noise to me I i find
[TS]
01:17:08
◼

it all unpleasant in with some
[TS]
01:17:11
◼
►
exceptions like dead wood made pee-wee's
[TS]
01:17:13
◼
►
big adventure is a good example right
[TS]
01:17:14
◼
►
but a lot of the movies he makes I don't
[TS]
01:17:16
◼

really love that man returns though I
[TS]
01:17:17
◼

feel like is is everything I don't like

about a Tim Burton movie like multiplied
[TS]
01:17:23
◼
►
and it concentrated well let me put it
[TS]
01:17:26
◼
►
this way i am tuned into tim burton to
[TS]
01:17:28
◼
►
the point where I kind of enjoyed the
[TS]
01:17:30
◼
►
Dark Shadows movie it was not as
[TS]
01:17:32
◼
►
annoying as I thought it was going to be
[TS]
01:17:34
◼
►
Batman Returns I can't stand
[TS]
01:17:37
◼
►
I think there's it i don't think he gets
[TS]
01:17:40
◼

any of the quirkiness and it's just the
[TS]
01:17:43
◼
►
surface level stuff
[TS]
01:17:44
◼
►
oh no it's all I've got it's too much
[TS]
01:17:46
◼
►
pork if I want to list a couple more my
[TS]
01:17:48
◼
►
theories here which is which is I do
[TS]
01:17:50
◼
►
think that this is one of those movies
[TS]
01:17:52
◼
►
that really lets us down the path of hey
[TS]
01:17:54
◼
►
what if we had more villains in
[TS]
01:17:56
◼
►
superhero movies it's a terrible idea i
[TS]
01:17:58
◼
►
don't know if it's ever been done well
[TS]
01:17:59
◼
►
where they've added like multiple
[TS]
01:18:01
◼
►
supervillains in a superhero movie and
[TS]
01:18:04
◼
►
had it work out to improve the movie and
[TS]
01:18:07
◼
►
I don't think it does it here either so
[TS]
01:18:09
◼
►
I think that's part of the problem and I
[TS]
01:18:10
◼
►
think fundamentally and this came up
[TS]
01:18:11
◼
►
earlier Tim Burton totally doesn't think
[TS]
01:18:14
◼
►
Batman is interesting and for the
[TS]
01:18:16
◼
►
largest part of Batman Returns Batman is
[TS]
01:18:19
◼
►
not even around it is really the story
[TS]
01:18:21
◼
►
of the penguin and catwoman and Batman
[TS]
01:18:24
◼
►
is like the doofus who shows up and hugs
[TS]
01:18:27
◼

them sometimes I'll got that was one of
[TS]
01:18:30
◼
►
the things that drove me nuts this time
[TS]
01:18:33
◼
►
I remember watching this I don't think I
[TS]
01:18:35
◼

[TS]
01:18:37
◼

it on a cable channel or on a on VHS
[TS]
01:18:41
◼
►
afterwards at some point and it
[TS]
01:18:44
◼
►
irritated me at the time thinking like
[TS]
01:18:46
◼
►
you know they really could have done
[TS]
01:18:49
◼
►
better a better job with Catwoman
[TS]
01:18:51
◼
►
this was before I really knew Selina

[TS]
01:19:05

[TS]
01:19:53
◼

[TS]
01:21:17
◼

three good things in the movie

01:21:19

christopher walken yes the fact that

[TS]
01:21:28
◼
►
a fourth most lines pay now and in the
[TS]
01:21:31
◼
►
fact that the words to the music in this
[TS]
01:21:33
◼
►
were really easy to memorize I like the
[TS]
01:21:35
◼
►
I like the part where all the Penguins

◼
►

[TS]
01:21:46
◼
►
Penguins have targeting radicals
[TS]
01:21:48
◼
►
dropping over their eyes they have
[TS]

01:21:59
◼

[TS]
01:22:12
◼

since of Batman he just disappears for
[TS]
01:22:15
◼
►
for a large portion of the movie the
[TS]
01:22:18
◼
►
penguin stuff I found not interesting
[TS]
01:22:20
◼

Christopher Walken is he is the best
[TS]
01:22:23
◼

thing in the movie i like i like him
[TS]
01:22:26
◼

[TS]
01:22:28
◼
►
enjoy it well it's one yeah yeah and I
[TS]
01:22:31
◼
►
think that's probably a problem that the
[TS]
01:22:33
◼
►
the that's orthogonal to the whole mood
[TS]
01:22:35
◼
►
right notion of Batman
[TS]
01:22:37
◼
►
yeah I want to follow him and see what
[TS]
01:22:39
◼
►
he's up we'll match trek to next and the
[TS]
01:22:41
◼
►
answer is he gets killed by the cat by
[TS]
01:22:44
◼
►
Catwoman at the end by I feel like that
[TS]
01:22:46
◼
►

[TS]
01:22:48
◼
►

[TS]
01:23:08
◼
►
the way they had some of for me one of
[TS]
01:23:12
◼
►
the strengths in the movie was post
[TS]
01:23:15
◼
►
transformation Catwoman Pfeiffer you
[TS]
01:23:18
◼
►
know then that and it was really
[TS]
01:23:20
◼
►
entertaining that they even had to
[TS]
01:23:22
◼
►
transform her in the first place I mean
[TS]
01:23:24
◼
►
Selina Kyle in the comics is it a rich

glasses corndog yes I and there were so
[TS]
01:23:44
◼
►
many good points
[TS]
01:23:45
◼
►
hidden inside the Catwoman story the the
[TS]
01:23:48
◼
►
idea of her trying to become her own
[TS]
01:23:51
◼
►
vigilante because at first she's you
[TS]
01:23:53
◼
►
know she your first thing she does is
[TS]
01:23:55
◼

rescue a woman although she's very upset
[TS]
01:23:57
◼

that the woman let herself get caught in

[TS]
01:24:01
◼

destruction of going after Schrag it
[TS]
01:24:04
◼

then it turns into this weird unresolved
[TS]
01:24:07
◼

sexual tension between her and between
[TS]
01:24:10
◼

Catwoman Batman that just comes out of

01:24:22
◼

the movie

xmas movie it's set at Christmastime and
[TS]
01:27:05
◼
►
it was released in june so perfect
[TS]
01:27:08
◼
►
timing that one of the one of the pieces
[TS]
01:27:10
◼
►
that was taken out of the first batman
[TS]
01:27:14
◼
►
movie was or heavily reduced was the
[TS]
01:27:18
◼
►
notion of the Batman and Joker being
[TS]
01:27:21
◼
►
parts different sides of the same coin
[TS]
01:27:24
◼
►
there's a head newspaper headline in an
[TS]
01:27:27
◼
►
early script that was taken out where
[TS]
01:27:30
◼
►
the headline is war of the freaks and
[TS]
01:27:34
◼
►
they seemed to rediscover that idea for
[TS]
01:27:37
◼
►
this movie because they put so much
[TS]
01:27:39
◼
►
effort into turning pink winning
[TS]
01:27:42
◼
►
Catwoman into freaks and also playing
[TS]
01:27:46
◼
►
with the idea of Batman as they feel
[TS]
01:27:48
◼
►
weak and tim burton seems to be so
[TS]
01:27:51
◼
►
fascinated with that he forgets to make
[TS]
01:27:54
◼
►
a superhero movie or just have Batman
[TS]
01:27:57
◼
►
he's not interested in Batman he Tim
[TS]
01:27:59
◼
►
Burton very clearly as bored by Batman
[TS]
01:28:01
◼
►
and so this is a movie about the about
[TS]
01:28:03
◼
►
Catwoman and penguin really and there's
[TS]
01:28:06
◼
►
a little bit of satire about him running
[TS]
01:28:08
◼
►
for for mayor and there's the L and
[TS]
01:28:10
◼
►
there's max Shreck trying to manipulate
[TS]
01:28:12
◼
►
things and all of that but but that man
[TS]
01:28:15
◼
►
doesn't get a lot of time Bruce Wayne
[TS]
01:28:17
◼
►
gets a little time sort of like in his
[TS]
01:28:19
◼
►
again there's this other thread which is
[TS]
01:28:21
◼
►
his attraction to Selina Kyle and
[TS]
01:28:23
◼
►
Batman's attraction to Catwoman and
[TS]
01:28:25
◼
►
that's that feels like something out of
[TS]
01:28:27
◼
►
the comics a little bit and when we get
[TS]
01:28:29
◼
►
to the very love that yeah yeah I I'll i
[TS]
01:28:31
◼
►
think that's I think that's one of my
[TS]
01:28:33
◼
►
grandma definitely strong parts that
[TS]
01:28:35
◼
►
yeah let these two really good actors
[TS]
01:28:37
◼
►
give them this really tangled issue let
[TS]
01:28:40
◼
►
them go
[TS]
01:28:41
◼
►
Michelle Pfeiffer after she after she
[TS]
01:28:44
◼
►
gets dumped out of the window and when
[TS]
01:28:47
◼
►
she's not in the cat suit is fascinating
[TS]
01:28:51
◼
►
yeah except in that scene where she's
[TS]
01:28:53
◼
►
sewing that the scene where she comes
[TS]
01:28:54
◼
►
back to her apartment and just yeah that
[TS]
01:28:57
◼
►
is and then shows her thing i hate that
[TS]
01:28:59
◼
►
seen a library then she pulls it
[TS]
01:29:01
◼
►
together
[TS]
01:29:02
◼
►
yeah that the reason I don't think this
[TS]
01:29:04
◼
►
was all tim burton's idea is he would
[TS]
01:29:06
◼
►
rather have the freaks be the heroes
[TS]
01:29:09
◼
►
instead of the villains sure like he
[TS]
01:29:12
◼
►
would rather do Edward Scissorhands then
[TS]
01:29:14
◼
►
have the guy who's yeah shunned by
[TS]
01:29:17
◼
►
society be actually ugly and horrible
[TS]
01:29:20
◼
►
like Danny DeVito I mean Danny DeVito's
[TS]
01:29:22
◼
►
Eric he's making to go with like well
[TS]
01:29:25
◼
►
what can I do with the Batman movie to
[TS]
01:29:27
◼
►
give it to get what I want it's like to
[TS]
01:29:29
◼
►
have these two have these characters
[TS]
01:29:31
◼
►
like this i'm a little surprised that
[TS]
01:29:33
◼
►
Catwoman ends up ends up killing max at
[TS]
01:29:38
◼
►
the end because it seems kind of
[TS]
01:29:39
◼
►
unnecessary she they they kiss over a
[TS]
01:29:42
◼
►
Taser to it's really stupid
[TS]
01:29:43
◼
►
oh yeah now he did kill her first true
[TS]
01:29:46
◼
►
but I think I feel like that would be an
[TS]
01:29:47
◼
►
interesting moment of like I issue
[TS]
01:29:50
◼
►
batteries she good
[TS]
01:29:52
◼
►
like maybe maybe maybe she's more
[TS]
01:29:54
◼
►
complicated than that because that
[TS]
01:29:55
◼
►
character is kind of like that she's a
[TS]
01:29:57
◼
►
little bit of both and then the penguin
[TS]
01:29:58
◼
►
this is more irredeemable but you know
[TS]
01:30:01
◼
►
that's again you know that they're in
[TS]
01:30:04
◼
►
the end it is about them just sort of
[TS]
01:30:06
◼
►
like having a moment on the stage and
[TS]
01:30:07
◼
►
then sort of a perfunctory I guess
[TS]
01:30:10
◼
►
Batman needs to clean this up at the end
[TS]
01:30:11
◼
►
because it's that kind of movie
[TS]
01:30:13
◼
►
yeah I do like that little clever bit at
[TS]
01:30:15
◼
►
the beginning of the movie before she
[TS]
01:30:18
◼
►
takes her tumble when she's who wins
[TS]
01:30:21
◼
►
Lena car was mugged and she's so mousing
[TS]
01:30:23
◼
►
all this other stuff and Batman saves
[TS]
01:30:25
◼
►
her and the Taser still lying there and
[TS]
01:30:27
◼
►
then she just get this glint in the eye
[TS]
01:30:29
◼
►
and she teases the unconscious thug and
[TS]
01:30:33
◼
►
that I do like that little bit because
[TS]
01:30:35
◼
►
that's that sort of suggest you that
[TS]
01:30:37
◼
►
yeah she is kind of broken inside and
[TS]
01:30:40
◼
►
got a lot of repressed anger and stuff
[TS]
01:30:42
◼
►
like that
[TS]
01:30:42
◼
►
well i think that the the Catwoman
[TS]
01:30:44
◼
►
thread for me that the Salina call
[TS]
01:30:47
◼
►
Catwoman thing for me feels like the
[TS]
01:30:50
◼
►
weather it's the script or whether it's
[TS]
01:30:52
◼
►
Burton I don't know but it feels like
[TS]
01:30:55
◼
►
first week shaky step towards women
[TS]
01:30:57
◼
►
having agency because you know she's one
[TS]
01:31:01
◼
►
of the reasons I think she's she's going
[TS]
01:31:02
◼
►
to kill Shrek at the end is because you
[TS]
01:31:04
◼
►
know this is a step she can take to
[TS]
01:31:07
◼
►
finally get her for revenge on him that
[TS]
01:31:10
◼
►
one line just killed me
[TS]
01:31:13
◼
►
um i would love to you know go live in
[TS]
01:31:15
◼
►
your castle and be your fairy princess i
[TS]
01:31:17
◼
►
would love that but i would hate myself
[TS]
01:31:19
◼
►
you know because she sees even that you
[TS]
01:31:22
◼
►
know is is giving in a way there's
[TS]
01:31:25
◼
►
there's a really good idea buried in
[TS]
01:31:29
◼
►
there that we only get glimpses I my
[TS]
01:31:32
◼
►
note says despite the dick jokes that
[TS]
01:31:36
◼
►
happened in this uh i think in providing
[TS]
01:31:39
◼
►
the brew Selena relationship is the best
[TS]
01:31:41
◼
►
thing in the movie like other the other
[TS]
01:31:42
◼
►
than other than yeah walkin doing

01:31:49
◼
►

01:31:58
◼
►
killed her the night before and she just
[TS]
01:32:00
◼
►
walks in and he's like what's going on
[TS]
01:32:02
◼
►
and then that's also when Bruce Wayne is
[TS]
01:32:04
◼
►
there and they meet and so that's kind
[TS]
01:32:05
◼
►
of electric it all that is is pretty
[TS]
01:32:07
◼
►

the heroes like Bruce and selina are
[TS]
01:32:17
◼
►
kind of freaks but they're also kind of
[TS]
01:32:20
◼
►
the leads and the heroes here and and it
[TS]
01:32:23
◼
►
that stuff kind of works and some of the

01:33:04
◼

[TS]
01:33:06
◼

01:33:07
◼
►
crazy Shaw

interesting things to try to say about
[TS]
01:33:19
◼

misogyny and yet it does it is almost
[TS]
01:33:24

01:33:34
◼
►

[TS]
01:33:39
◼
►
victim kind of character and it's almost
[TS]
01:33:42
◼
►
like they it's up there with bits of
[TS]
01:33:45
◼
►
this in the first batman movie with Jack
[TS]
01:33:48
◼
►
Nicholson's character you know I didn't

but they amp it up in this movie as
[TS]
01:33:57
◼
►
though they're trying to make a point
[TS]
01:33:58
◼
►
about it i and III don't think they
[TS]
01:34:02
◼
►
succeed in Michael Keaton's last scene
[TS]
01:34:05
◼
►
about goodwill toward men and women just
[TS]
01:34:08
◼
►
doesn't google yeah i think that a last
[TS]
01:34:12
◼
►
person to do a pass on the screenplay
[TS]
01:34:14
◼
►
just put in a million stupid quips
[TS]
01:34:17
◼
►
yeah like towards the last half of the
[TS]
01:34:19
◼
►
movie it's full of things like I haven't
[TS]
01:34:21
◼
►

[TS]
01:34:25
◼
►

[TS]
01:34:31
◼
►
that the office I don't think he did the
[TS]
01:34:33
◼
►
final pass on it but the main credited
[TS]
01:34:36
◼
►
screenwriter had his previous film was
[TS]
01:34:39
◼
►
Hudson Hawk which is a much better

[TS]
01:34:45
◼
►
better than this will all it's so much
[TS]
01:34:48
◼
►

[TS]
01:34:50
◼
►
and then I I'm pretty much done with the
[TS]
01:34:51
◼
►
things for me to say about the movie
[TS]
01:34:53
◼
►
because I I don't like haha ok but Jason

[TS]
01:35:01
◼

amused by the scene where do when the
[TS]
01:35:05
◼
►
penguin is trying to give a speech again
[TS]
01:35:07
◼
►

01:35:11
◼
►
Batman and Alfred using a CD desi yeah
[TS]
01:35:14
◼
►

[TS]
01:35:16
◼
►
they turn the tables on him in the end
[TS]
01:35:18
◼
►
he does a little bit of scratching there
[TS]
01:35:20
◼
►
and then later in the movie
[TS]
01:35:21
◼
►
Alfred is like a a freaker with
[TS]
01:35:24
◼
►
frequency jamming powers who turns the
[TS]
01:35:28
◼
►
Penguins around and like go Alfred and
[TS]
01:35:31
◼
►
it's ridiculous an awful and and doesn't
[TS]
01:35:33
◼
►
fit but it's also funny and the
[TS]
01:35:35
◼
►
culmination of that Batman shows up and
[TS]
01:35:38
◼
►
he's got his bat remote that controls
[TS]
01:35:40
◼
►
the Penguins and the penguin gets the
[TS]
01:35:43
◼
►
remote from him and then presses the
[TS]
01:35:46
◼
►
yeah which blows everything up and it's
[TS]
01:35:48
◼
►
like I don't I don't
[TS]
01:35:49
◼
►
yeah why is I think it was the things
[TS]
01:35:52
◼
►
listed it was it's like a homing thing
[TS]
01:35:54
◼
►
and that whoever presses the button it's
