The Dark Knight (2008) feat. Ryan Chollet

Published: Dec. 22, 2020, 6:42 p.m.

We’re continuing 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.)
