This week on The Lettuce Podcast, Laura
and Charlotte return to Gotham for the final chapter in Christopher
Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy: The Dark Knight Rises.
They welcome guest Cory into the mix to help them review the film and
finish the series. Together they discuss characters old and new, how
the film compares to its prequels, whether the end of TDK series was
satisfying, and more. Laura wonders if double-crossing is the al Ghul
family trait. Charlotte shares her experience watching the film for
the first time. Cory uses his knowledge of The Dark Knight
comic books to compare some movie elements to the source material.
All three laud the electric performance of Anne Hatheway as Catwoman,
discuss how Bane's villainous presence gets short-handed, and debate
Alfred's actions in the film. Is Christian Bale's final performance
as Batman as powerful as his previous two? Was John Blake relatable
or boring? And did this movie really need to be nearly 3 hours long?
All these topics and more are discussed on this week's episode.
Laura,
Charlotte, and Cory had an extra hilarious Fun and Games segment for
this episode. Listen to find out why Cory had a laughing fit during a
round of Sorting Hat. They also get creative in a game called Create
A Bat Gadget, where each person comes up with their own special bat
gadget to ask Lucious Fox to make. What bat gadget would you have
made?
For
various reasons, the hosts and Cory chose not to indulge in a Podtail
for this episode. BUT! Don't worry! The Lettuce Podast always has you
covered for your own themed podtail adventures. Check out this Buzzfeed article with 7
Cocktails for Batman Lovers. Still looking for guidance? Why not try
a Boy Wonder in honor of John Blake's real name (Robin!).
