Lauren and Nicole’s trip through the Batman universe takes an interesting turn with very special guest Matt Gourley (Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend, Superego, I Was There Too, With Gourley and Rust, Bonanas For Bonanza) covering 1997’s Batman & Robin with George Clooney. Is this really one of the “worst movies ever made”... or actually one of the all-time greats? Is the hyper-focus on Batman’s nipples an expression of artistic vision or does it miss the point? Are we sure Batman and Robin are not a couple? All of these important questions (and more!) will be answered.Next week's movie: Batman Begins (2005). Follow Matt: Instagram, TwitterLike the show?
