Episode 126 - Batman 89 30th Anniversary

The Last King Podcast

It's a special episode of the Last King podcast, where we celebrate the 30th anniversary of Tim Burton's Batman. Starring Micheal Keaton as the caped crusader and Jack Nicholson as the Joker. We look back at the film and also it's inspirations, from the campy television show to Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns. While superhero films are in abundance today, there was a time when they were a burgeoning genre. And while Superman in 1978 proved that comics could translate well to the big screen, and bigger box-office returns. The world was not quite ready for the pop culture phenomenon that would arrive almost a decade later. So sit back and enjoy this retrospective look at one of the most influential films ever made.
