2.43 - THE DARK KNIGHT RISES (2012) & The 1%
We conclude our tour through the Batman universe (except for That Of Which We Do Not Speak [see footnotes]) with Christopher Nolan’s 2012 film. We talk about a visually impressive but ultimately pretty unsatisfying movie, earning narrative weight, and the dubious politics of Bruce Wayne.
This Week’s Media
GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 (2017): James Gunn, Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana
GET OUT (2017): Jordan Peele, Daniel Kaluuya, Alison Williams
THEIR FINEST (2017): Lone Scherfig, Gemma Arterton, Sam Claflin
Recommendations
THE REVENANT (2016): Alejandro G. Iñarritu, Leonardo di Caprio, Tom Hardy
INCEPTION (2010): Christopher Nolan, Leonardo di Caprio, Ken Watanabe
MAD MAX: FURY ROAD (2015): George Miller, Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron
ONE DAY (2011): Lone Scherfig, Anne Hathaway, Jim Sturgess
Footnotes
First of all, here’s our ‘small batch’ episode on the most recent Batman film, Zack Snyder’s 2016…effort. Here’s that Nerdwriter video Rob mentions (and his video on the evolution of Gotham is also apposite, as we come to the end of the franchise). We discuss two comic series, ‘No Man’s Land’ and ‘The Dark Knight’. And finally, I do enjoy these videos (there are some impressively thorough ones about more recent blockbusters, too).
