The 602 Club: A Geekery Speakeasy


Sep 9, 2016

Batman Begins.

Batman is one of the most iconic characters in all of comics and has endured for over 75 years spawning merchandise, cartoons, television shows and films, so in early 2003 as Christopher Nolan and David Goyer began working on a new iteration, the stakes were high.

In this episode of The 602 Club host Matthew Rushing is joined by John Mills and Tristan Riddell to talk about Batman Begins. We discuss beginning again, the Nolan influence, the cast, themes, music, Gotham, the suit and our ratings.
