The Dark Knight (2008)

Special guest Ryan Chollet joins us as we continue Courtney’s deep dive into the Nolan Batman trilogy with one of the most iconic and influential films of the last 30 years - 2008’s exceptional The Dark Knight! We marvel at the mesmerizing, timeless, and Oscar-winning portrayal of Heath Ledger’s Joker, we take detours about Patton Oswalt, Michael Keaton’s Batman, and discover some real animosity towards Pixar’s WALL-E - and then we mostly fawn over this gripping crime thriller dressed up as a Batman movie, whose cultural impact is still playing out over a decade later. (Also, it should’ve been nominated for — and then won — Best Picture.)
