Episode #51 – The Death of Superman Lives
For our first documentary, we talk about The Death of Superman Lives: What Happened. For those who don't know, an adaptation of The Death of Superman story called Superman Lives was supposed to be directed by Tim Burton and feature Nicolas Cage, but after a long and torturous production, the plug was pulled. This documentary goes into the movie's development process, featuring interviews with the crew and never-before-seen footage. And one thing is for certain: the movie would have been a trainwreck, but one that we wish we could have seen!

Episode #46 – Justice League
After spending many digressions in past episodes talking about it, we finally sit down and watch Justice League. Despite being a movie that pretty much satisfied no one, there are still things we found to like—such as (most) of the cast and the action scenes. But we also go into the things where it missed the mark.

Episode #40 – Constantine
When Constantine starring Keanu Reeves came out, fans of the character were pissed because of how different it was from the comics. But in retrospect, it's actually a pretty damn good movie. We talk Keanu's career, Derrick's thoughts on Shia LaBeouf, and Peter Stormare's take on Lucifer.

Episode #35 – Joker
Joker spawned a lot of hot opinions on both sides, and Derrick and Perry get into it a bit themselves as they dissect the movie. Listen for their opinions on the film, some of their different interpretations, and how they feel this isn't really the Joker from the comics.

Episode #34 – V For Vendetta
Considering current events, we watch V For Vendetta and are shocked at how much more relevant it is now than when it was released. We talk Hugo Weaving’s excellent portrayal, Natalie Portman’s sometimes-inconsistent accent, and go off on some tangents about Alan Moore and politics in general.

Episode #33 – Superman Returns
Superman Returns is our movie for this week. We discuss the things we liked about it, such as the performances by Routh and Spacey and the epic scenes of Superman saving people. And we also talk about the weaker points, like some of the story elements, Kate Bosworth, and an S shield that's not big enough.

Episode #30 – Batman & Robin
With Joel Schumacher’s recent passing, the guys decided to cover Batman & Robin, one of the most maligned movies of all time. But here’s a plot twist—they’ve got some positive things to say about it.
-
Episode #29 – Batman Returns
Michael Keaton might be coming back as Batman! So we looked at the last time he did that by discussing Batman Returns, a movie that’s not so much a Batman movie, but is still a really cool and weird flick to look back on with some killer performances.

Episode #25 – Batman: The Movie (1966)
Grab your Bat-Shark Repellant and slather some white greasepaint over your mustache, because we're jumping in our Bat-Time Machine and going back to the swinging 60s for Batman: The Movie! We talk about why Frank Gorshin is the greatest Riddler ever, how Adam West surprises with some subtle facial expressions, and why this movie is kind of a supervillain origin story for...Robin? You'll have to listen if you want to know more!
