No one brought up Snowflame, Ben? He's a supervillain powered by cocaine frpm DC Comics
Austin McDougle
Ben said “my problem with robin is he doesn’t have feathers” and these motherfuckers just let it slide, didn’t say a word
Kevin Fennell
Griffin: “who played Mad Hatter?”

Basil Dearden would actually make for a VERY interesting series.

Man, I have an elevator pitch for a relevant Clayface movie.
Jamesdillenbeck
y'all casually ignoring Ben's "Robin needs feathers" smh. Come on now, that would be legit bad. asssss.
Matthew Goderre
I was gob smacked when not a mention was made of Batman fighting with a cat in his hands for several minutes while everyone discussed children eating desserts.
Craig Shaner
I came here to post about snowflame. A critical character in DC comics history who just really sucks so bad.
Joseph Magnuson
Burger report ep coming!? Sweet

Guinea Pigs
Spider-Skull Island
Did they forget to mention Kite Man?
Reed mikkelsen
I just want to hear David talk X-Men for 8 hours.
Jenny Potter
Hawk!

The fact that they completely overlooked that observation is a crime
Jacob Prante
I'm guessing that the “G.P.” numbered outfits for the dehydrated/rehydrated pirates stands for Gotham Pirate. On second thought, that sounds too silly for this movie.

Somebody should tell Ben about Snowflame, the DC supervillain who is powered by cocaine. He died in his first appearance hiding from the New Guardians, but he was back fighting Catwoman in 2020, making him tangentially a part of the extended Batman rogues gallery. Also, in the Gotham Academy run there were some villainous teachers.
Jeremy Jones
prolly cos he doesnt steal from the rich and give to the poor
Jordan Gibson
Yes! Finally!! I never knew I've been waiting my entire life for this series! Oh how I wish I could join. I'm so excited to hear your thoughts on the animated. The best DC films are animated. My dudes. Have a fun ride. 🖖
Jemaleddin Cole
How have we, as a society, gotten to a point that people think Robin is named after a bird and not Robin Hood, the vigilante whose whole look they incorporated?
tiffany
Heck yes!! Cant wait for the schumacher ones
Akhil Akhil
Hell he’d even be good as JGL-as-Robin!
Jacob
I absolutely love this movie, so this was great. “He’s adopted a ward” made me pause it.
Rad Rodge
The world is big and complicated but the fact that those lyrics are out there and we know them is bananas
Rad Rodge
I think it took this episode to make me reflect on how the existence of the Jingle Bells Batman Smells lyrics is just a mindblowing data point about the world we live in
Tom
Julie Newmar and Lee Meriwether are still alive.
Jordan B. Anderson
"I think my problem with Robin is he doesn't have any feathers." - still our finest film critic
Roy Martini
Very excited for this
LukeTheNerd
OMG
Anthony Drake
griffin would be the best robin
