It’s the 250th episode of The Batman Universe Podcast! What a milestone! In this episode’s forecast… a FREEEEEEEZE is coming! Hosts Scott and BJ get an important newsworthy item out of the way, and then the rest of this landmark episode is spent diving into Joel Schumacher’s Batman & Robin, a cinematic experience of the senses that ended a film franchise that began in 1989. Though a proposed sequel was immediately canceled after Batman & Robin‘s debut, this misfortune cleared the way for Christopher Nolan to come in with his own trilogy nearly 8 years later.
Ready your ice puns! Dress up in your finest purple gorilla suits. We’re about to subject ourselves (in Scott’s case, more than once) to a film that, over 25 years later, is getting a new lease on life. I mean, look at the glorious McFarlane Batman & Robin figures, OK?!
