  • Kevin Smith helped me get through a lot of tough times in my life. I would put his podcast on and it would help me to feel that even in the darkest moments of our life, there is someone out there who is discussing the importance of comic book characters. Kevin's voice is like a glass of warm milk to soothe you to sleep. I will try and upload more content. Enjoy

    Thank you for posting. We need to convince them to do a commentary for The Dark Knight. For charity. Would pay $25 for it.

      Maybe they couldn't figure out how to make it funny instead of just being like "this part is great" the whole time

    So, which would you prefer...
    1 - The first black character on screen in The Dark Knight Returns is a violent pimp that Batman beats the shit out of on top of a car, and then he still stays a bad guy...
    OR
    2 - The fact that The Batman would've been over in an hour and a half if the ONE Latino guy in the movie, Officer Martinez, had a high enough clearance that he could look at evidence. Really cool character, played well, written well, memorable... but that doesn't change the fact that the entire case was cracked open by a Mexican stereotype. The cat burglar doesn't know what a carpet tucker is, the billionaire on a path of vengeance doesn't know what a carpet tucker is, the butler that used to be a British secret service agent doesn't know what a carpet tucker is, the straight-shooting Lieutenant surrounded by corruption and incompetence doesn't know what a carpet tucker is, and neither do any of the people who know whose been the mayor for the last twenty years. But thank God Officer Martinez has an uncle to installs carpet by hand.

    1:03:50 - Agreed, but not because of The Dark Knight Returns. I get that the news sequences are meant to be exposition. That's not a problem - hell, the way they did "news" in Batman v Superman actually made sense. But when you get to movies like The Dark Knight, and The Batman, which are absolutely GREAT films... who the fuck is letting these people play these fucked up videos on the air, with no TIME for oversight in the first place? Heath Ledger's Joker keeps sending videos of him killing people and screwing with Mike Engel, and they're like, 'SHOW IT ALL ON THE AIR," and then literally three minutes after you hear Falcone and Kenzie killing Annika on Selina's voicemail, they're playing THAT shit on the air, too! Where the fuck is the FCC when you need them?

      I would say yes but when they did Batman Begins, I was kinda pissed. They just shit on the movie and Batman Begins is a great Batman film.

      I've been on a Batman movie kick and rewatching all the films and animated stuff the past month, I listened to all these commentary track pods when they first came out and remembered them being hilarious.
      That Batman begins pod was hard to sit through though.
      They both seem miserable.
      And they have weird talking points and focus on everything BUT the movie.
      Ever since this PC movement, Kevin Smith's pods just aren't entertaining because I feel like he's muzzling himself so not to be provocative or say something "out of line"
      I agree though, Batman begins is the best Batman live action film imo.
      I think TDK is a better movie but I enjoy Begins more as a Batman/ Bruce Wayne story.

    JFC. Good commentary, but WE GET IT, KEVIN. You miss the voiceover. Every thirty seconds with the "now this is what you lose without the voiceover," "they changed this because there's no voiceover," "in the book this part had a voiceover..."
