For our forty-seventh episode, friend of the show Mike Natale (“You’re Missing Out” podcast) returns for a movie deeply important to your wonky yet affable host: Joel Schumacher’s inaugural outing with the Dark Knight, 1995’s “Batman Forever”. Were Val Kilmer’s lips born to play Batman? Does the franchise need to be liberated from big-boy mentality? Will this host almost forget to even mention that Jim Carrey is in the film? Listen to find out!

Ryan’s Recommendations: “Batman” (1966), “Superman: The Animated Series” (1996-2000), and “The Batman” (2022)

For our forty-sixth episode, we’re joined by writer/comedian Kandice Martellaro (“Hanging with Doctor Z”) for a discussion of Wes Craven’s 1996 iconic slasher satire “Scream”. How up-to-date are fax machines? Did the MPAA veto a glimpse of intestines? How do you make Drew Barrymore cry? All of these questions and more are answered!

Ryan’s Recommendations: “Destry Rides Again” (1939), “My Darling Clementine” (1946), and “The Gunfighter” (1950)

For our forty-fifth episode, friend of the show Ben Haslar (Reels of Justice) returns to discuss the audio commentaries for David Fincher’s magnum opus: 2007’s “Zodiac”. Would the Zodiac Killer be as infamous if he didn’t write letters? Is the climactic basement sequence a bridge too far? Is Jake Gyllenhaal playing Fincher in “Spider-Man: Far from Home”? The answers to these questions and more (or at least speculation) await!

Ryan’s Recommendations: “The Game” (1997), “The Social Network” (2010), and “Gone Girl” (2014)
