Ep. 262 - The Year of the Sequel! Batman Returns (1992)

This week kick off our year long look at sequels with one that is very divisive for Steve, Tim Burton's Batman Returns. We talk first about the success of the original Batman film and how Tim Burton wanted to do something 'different' with the next installment. We dig into the portrayals of Danny DeVito's Penguin, Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman and Batman's Michael Keaton and if their translation from the page to the screen is successful. We also question the effectiveness of a penguin army. So grab your Batman branded CD player and a bucket of live fish and give this episode a listen!
