Description

George loved the Nolan Batman trilogy before we ever considered doing a podcast. So how excited will he be when he realizes that the same director put together a similar cast (plus a Wolverine and a Gollum) to tell the tale of two professional rivals who become bitter personal enemies. Oh and there is magic and David Bowie and maybe the darkest personal quest we've seen in a Piper Perabo movie.
Will George and Travis be able to keep up with the twists and turns (and teleportation) in their first watch through this movie? Will Dan finally show the guys a movie that they both like on their first watch? Will anyone finally do something about these damn dirty apes? Tune in to find out!

Poor George. He's never seen any movies. Rather than mourn their dear friend, Travis and Dan have taken it upon themselves to show him what he is missing. But they don't stop at showing him famous movies! They also help George to understand how each film fits into the Great Narrative of Film. Not only THAT the film of the week is significant, but WHY and HOW. Also, they make jokes and stuff.
