Just tried to find the audio version of this show... couldn’t find it... I typed ‘carpoop’. *facepalm*

Pro trick : you can watch series on flixzone. Been using them for watching lots of of movies these days.

[@jadenstefan9231]

@Mordechai Sage yea, I've been watching on Flixzone for months myself =)

[@KyngD469]

Oooooh. Nice!

[@TheyreJustMovies]

epic roll of tape 100%

[@1993JoshG]

The thing about the "swear to me" scene is that's exactly what batman is like in the comics. When he's interrogating someone, he is INTERROGATING them and that scene is so on-point!

[@ZeusEKR]

How does the emitter evaporate all the water in the water lines instantly, but not the people on the streets that are 70% water? If the drug is released by evaporating water and they've been putting the drug in for weeks, has no one boiled any water or taken a hot shower for weeks?

[@taekwontheo]

“Artifice”

[@kryptkeeper457]

no ones boils pasta in Gotham. this is widely known...

[@spa2damax]

David looks like Boss Baby without the beard no cap 🍼

[@TheyreJustMovies]

HAHAHAHAHA -DG

[@KSPilo]

The biggest logical plot flaw in this movie is in my opinion the microwave "weapon" and its main purpose to evaporate water. Nolan totally ignored the fact that the human body consists of ~70% water. So...when all the water in the water pipelines evaporates...why didn't the water in all the citizens & animals evaporate as well or at least heat up over 42°C, so that all the protein in humans & animals coagulates and turns them into hard boiled eggs... I makes no sense. P.S. More sense would perhaps make a really powerful ultrasonic vaporizer.

[@darmokandjalad7786]

I found this podcast two days ago and have already listened to 5 episodes. Seen maybe like 2 LTT videos ever, but I love these guys, great conversations and interesting analysis.

[@diSTUD013]

1:10:32 "They have a Zack Snyder" *weirdest laugh I have ever heard but I loved it. Thank you David!

[@kubev]

Regarding Bruce's dad's final words, honestly, I consider what we see of that scene to be what Bruce remembers. While it could be a means of taunting Bruce later on, Carmine Falcone mentions that Joe Chill said that Bruce's dad "begged like a dog". I think Bruce ultimately remembers his dad the way his dad usually was, and I think his high opinion of his dad prevents him from seeing his dad in a position of weakness as Carmine Falcone / Joe Chill would've claimed. That whole flashback to Bruce's dad's death just doesn't feel real, and I think that's intentional. Also, can we get a Father of the Year award for Bruce's dad for him taking Bruce to an opera show about gigantic bat creatures right after having a father/son talk about Bruce's fear of bats?

[@kubev]

I'm finished watching, so I have two final things to mention: 1) Ra's al Ghul mentions at some point that Gotham is so corrupt that the League of Shadows has worked itself into pretty much every aspect of the city's operations. I can't remember the exact phrasing. With that in mind, Ra's had good reason to track Bruce down, as Bruce was of such potential importance within Gotham in any capacity, but his company also would've provided so much in the way of resources (both in terms of money AND equipment/technology/weapons). The fact that he was at a point of weakness made Bruce an even more valuable target, as Bruce would've had so much interest in improving Gotham. Unfortunately for Ra's, Bruce's vision for the improvement of Gotham didn't align with his own, and that's why things fell apart. 2) I love the fact that the title card for the movie doesn't appear until the very end of the movie. At the beginning, you do get a Batman logo of sorts as bats fly across the screen, but the words Batman Begin don't appear until the very end, kind of serving as the true beginning of a Batman who knows his true path forward.

[@AsheZerith]

Finally! Sleep can wait, this review’s more important

[@zarnodin]

Riley has the best "THE BATMAN' voice can we get a full podcast in that voice.

[@stanleydrones]

Going back through the Nolan Batman trilogy just so I can listen to these again. Hope the podcast comes back one day!

[@kubev]

Also, the gun's lift weight limit likely applies to its ability to reel itself in while supporting that weight. Batman fires it into the train, so it's the pull of the train that's assisting in pulling Batman out from under the people, with the only other concern really being the cable strength. Once he's free of the people (which is almost immediately because of the motion of the train), he can then retract the cable again without concerns about the weight limit.

[@dual.clutch]

I subscribed to this podcast for TDKR! Hyped that they're finally getting around to it!

[@Xeno1798]

*The Origin of The Shadow of The Re-Rise of The Batman*

[@kubev]

Rachel received a "concentrated dose" of the drug. That's the only reason she was more at risk for dying directly from exposure to the drug. The plan to release the drug into the air was intended to make the city "tear itself apart" as a result of everyone hallucinating and attacking one another. That effect would've worn off over time.

[@dburnnzz]

“It’s Chicago for sure” Riley: 😳 Nah man, Gotham is literally a nickname for NYC lol

[@kubev]

A few questions about your Bruce Wayne and casting discussion (I love Batman Begins, in case it wasn't obvious.): 1) Was Christian Bale's performance as Bruce Wayne any better/worse for you for having seen American Psycho? I think the two roles could almost be interchangeable for him. 2) Christian Bale lost a LOT of weight (consuming only 200 calories a day, losing roughly 55 pounds over the course of four months to end up at 120 pounds) in preparation for The Machinist. He ended up having to gain even more weight back in preparation of Batman Begins. (It's also funny to think of how much he had to gain for his role in Vice.) 3) I love the part when Rachel realizes that Bruce is Batman. I don't generally care much for superhero movies, but those are probably among my favorite types of scenes in movies. The train scene in Spider-Man 2 is another favorite of mine.

[@rustumlaattoe]

Have to agree with David that Shazam was a pretty good movie. It wasn't amazing, but at no point was i bored and there have been plenty of other movies where i couldn't say that.

[@irnp6125]

This movie is a hit. It's an instant classic. I understand people can nitpick the movie all day but go back and watch the first 2 Tim Burton Batman Movies. They are absurd in comparison. Michael Keaton's "Bruce Wayne" hangs upside down (an actual shot from the movie). Batman Returns opens with criminals attacking the city (easily 20 bad guys, if not more). Batman shows up in his Batmobile fights of 2 badguys and saves the day. Seriously, that's all he does and the rest of the bad guys apparently just disperse. The comparison to this movie is night and day. Clearly the best Batman movie up to this point. The knit picking is ridiculous, just try and going back to watch the originals and set the nostalgia aside. Credit to these guys for all giving a grade 8 or above out of 10.

[@gadget2622]

I know it's a larger time commitment but I would love for you guys to review the first season of the Mandalorian.

[@lucas11001]

Am I the only one who has The Dark Knight Rises as my favourite movie of all time?

[@kubev]

In the ice scene, I think some of it could be lost with a poor audio setup, but you should be able to hear the sound of ice cracking throughout that sequence. While Ducard tapping on the ice to break it is clearly intended for comedic effect, I don't think it's unreasonable to think that the ice could've broken at any time beyond that point, especially since Bruce was doing nothing to distribute his weight across the surface once he stood up from his slide across the ice to the thinner portion of it.

[@piccolojiggolo1421]

Friggin James has does so many crazy things too lol. Canadian army, wildfire fighter, now like one of the LTT top dogs. We need to know more about James' cool life!

[@4Everlast]

"Falcone" was phenomenal, he had a single proper scene and he was brilliant, so many layers to his performance.

[@Icarus9]

I love this review. So much enthusiasm from each of you for different parts of the movie. Even when you disagree you each have the things that you just love.

[@vivekvs1992]

I just love how Riley looks at James for a reaction on his batman voice

[@ilantzur02]

In the Tumbler chasr scene, the cops gets run over first and then you see them cower inside the car and reporting about the tank

[@bunyoweb]

42:43 can we get that as a ringtone?

[@santinojoshuatorre1695]

speaking of bruce's parents being one-dimensional: MAAAARRRTTHHHHAAAA!

[@spoiler_guy7701]

congratulations for 50th video of the channel

[@schmitz9a]

You can maybe move a hovering helicopter. It still has it's mass if you want to accelarate it though. And they make a big deal about Bucky turning up the power, and you're not holding that. Not even for a second, unless you involve super serum magic.

[@synthiandrakon]

Batman begins is such a delightfully campy comic booky title that I can't help but love it

[@vyomdirt]

"Insomnia" is a great movie though isn't it?

[@Gookkaebi]

you guys should do Heat next to the dark knight because it was the main inspiration for the movie!

[@Gookkaebi]

@HardWorker ForMyMoney eh it's okay doesn't hold a candle to heat tho

guuys why is the stuff no more on SoundCloud?? KEEP IT ALIVE PLEEASEEE

Can you please do doctor strange and talk about the intro and similarities between Batman begins and doctor strange because my friends said they don’t see it

[@avace917]

I love Batman Begins most out of all live Batman movies. The vibe of it is beautiful.

[@Jasz_]

Never clicked on a video so quick! Love the triology

[@KuronoXD]

One of the crucial legacies of this movie, which Marvel took to heart in their formula, was having a major villain whose plan is the main focus and a secondary villain that helps advance the plot.

[@Redshift1360]

Loved this episode👍. You guys always make me laugh lol

[@piccolojiggolo1421]

Do Batman and Robin! lol I want to see yall do it now just because you mentioned it hahaha.

[@isakohman5105]

gotham city in the comics is more based on new york city or boston rather than chicago, but if they shot it there, then that makes sense

[@DerrickGlenfilm]

Hey Guys, Love your show, very informative and also funny. At the end of this one you mention Zack Snyder and his handling of the DCEU and other comic book adaptations, I agree he shouldn't have been the one to carry a movie franchise /universe. However, I appreciate his approach to filmmaking. I encourage you guys to watch his first feature, Dawn of the dead (2004). I believe this is still his best movie and his style lends well to a zombie film. I had high hopes for Army of the Dead (which wasn't great) and fear his time spent ruining the DCEU may have forever changed his style.

[@zachmurray8093]

Guys, please come back

[@ericgurley5355]

You guys mention how we moved past the tight shakey cam martial arts. Have you guys considered doing a more modern martial arts movie? I would love to see a "The Raid" episode.

[@Farkusjw]

My fav personalities doing movie reviews? Hell yeah

[@PUFFINCHUNKS]

Guys, y u stop uploading these to soundcloud? I miss being able to listen to this in my car on the way to work :'(

[@andrazz90]

Before you do the Dark Knight Rises, you should definitely watch the South Park episode "S**ual Harassment Panda" that's all I hear when i watch Tom Hardy's Bane 😂

[@wombat7961]

best south park episode!!

[@natacus2007]

Does anyone else find the guy on left really pretentious at times ? and the nitpick/questions akin to 'Nick' on the KF 'In review ' series. Riley needs to tone down his brand of humor, host guy is good.

[@restless42]

For the first minute, I was 100% sure that this was not David, but some new guest that I've never seen before (Yes, even after they introduced themselves).

[@mirrenbodanis5224]

I really REALLY really want to meet James irl

[@ryanisbossgamer]

Id love an episode on cloverfield perticularly 10 cloverfield lane

[@Stelio_Contos]

You guys need to do a reveiw of Fear And Loathing in Las-Vegas

[@flawlesswalrus]

Can’t wait for the new Batman movie! 2022 couldn’t come sooner

[@rushikeshpatil5632]

ford v ferrari review would be nice

[@ericm54]

While I agree that most of the DC Movies are garbage, you can't disregard some of the animated adaptations they have done. You've got Under the Red Hood and The Dark Knight Returns. which are both Amazing. I'd love to see a review of one of these.

[@PredatoryQQmber]

27:40 But revenge IS justice though. 1:09:30 That's just bunch of nonsense: "being faithful to the source materials is somehow makes films bad, [even though it's not a thing that's happened here]".

[@ImPDK]

So just 3 this time?

[@alfredoluisenriquelimagudi3311]

Too much Batman voices in less than an hour. Not a complain but something to be proud. All Batman conversation should be like that

[@jordant2]

David is disrespecting Wonder Woman. That is one DC movie that is phenomenal.

[@liaminwales]

the films owes a lot to the 'SHADOW' film from 1994, the setup and general story is vary close.

[@Shaneosaurus_Rex]

“I was in the army, but no when I was a wildfire firefighter...” WHY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT BATMAN?!

[@ONIONEILL]

Batman Vs Superman Ultimate Edition is vastly superior to the theatrical release; go watch :D

[@TheKazragore]

Couldn't agree more. Cinema Wins reviewed that version and it is really good.

[@dgraves14]

Also, the whole thing about the toxic water, what about people who were taking hot showers or boiling water while cooking? lol. There would have been a ton of people that were already poisoned well before there machine went off. Unless that was explained away some point int the movie. It has been since like 2006 since I've watched it. lol

[@FernandezEmG]

its a really polarizing discussion. you know who are parents and who isn't...and from the movie it would be weird if they watched CATS..and wanted to leave coz i t freaked Bruce..and his parents die...he'll be the first superhero drag queen vigilante.

[@joementalist84]

Audio file ?

[@Kevin-rz9xb]

You have to do Uncut Gems it is in Netflix and for me personally, it is Adam Sandler’s best movie

[@raiharshit9999]

I watched the movie to see listen to this

[@coltonclement]

I don’t know people didn’t like his Bruce Wayne. I thought he was great.

[@muhwyndham]

Too small. At that time Batman persona has always been slightly buffer than Bale.

[@coltonclement]

@@muhwyndham I mean know one can ever look like comic Batman but Bale was a bit soft.

[@amantahiliani]

Unpopular Opinion: I like Rises the most and Dark Knight the least. (Still very good but prefer it the least of the three)

[@apreviousseagle836]

The best movie ever made.
