Cherry Bombs - The Underappreciated Movies Podcast
Batman and Robin
This episode we wrap up our Summer of Commentaries series with one of the most (unfairly) hated movies of all time, BATMAN AND ROBIN! Drag performer/Youtube fragrance guru Alex Pearl joins us as we reconsider Joel Schumacher's universally despised comic book confection and find a lot to love. A gloriously over the top 60's throwback, 1997's not-so Dark Knight adaptation finds new purpose as an antidote to today's gloomy, monochromatic takes on Bill Finger's super-detective. From it's color saturated photography to its enormous physical sets and unapologetically campy tone, BATMAN AND ROBIN makes a case for why our dreary modern movie landscape could use a day-glo injection of 90's excess. Who else but Cherry Bombs would celebrate the 25th anniversary of this neon-soaked, glow-tastic cinematic Bat-rave?
