The Goggler Podcast #132: Batman (1989)

Dept. of Jibbers, Jabbers, and Yackety-Yaks

On today’s episode of The Goggler Podcast, Uma and Bahir re-view Tim Burton’s Batman. With yet another interpretation of The Dark Knight (this time with Robert Pattinson in the title role) about to land on our big screens, what better time to revisit the modern interpretation that kickstarted the cinematic legacy of Batman. How does Burton’s take hold up? Is Michael Keaton the definitive Batman? Is Jack Nicholson the definitive Joker?

Having witnessed his parents’ brutal murder as a child, millionaire philanthropist Bruce Wayne fights crime in Gotham City disguised as Batman, a costumed hero who strikes fear into the hearts of villains. But when a deformed madman who calls himself “The Joker” seizes control of Gotham’s criminal underworld, Batman must face his most ruthless nemesis ever while protecting both his identity and his love interest, reporter Vicki Vale.

Batman was directed by Tim Burton and stars Jack Nicholson, Michael Keaton, Kim Basinger, Robert Wuhl, Pat Hingle, Billy Dee Williams, Michael Gough, and Jack Palance.
