Christopher Nolan’s redefinition of comic book movies did not stop with Batman Begins, so when the studio asked him to continue the series, he, David Goyer and Jonathan Nolan began mining Batman comics such as The Long Halloween and The Killing Joke for inspiration and continue to elevate the genre.
In this 100th episode of The 602 Club host Matthew Rushing welcomes John Mills and Tristan Riddell to talk about The Dark Knight. We discuss raising the stakes, contemporary themes, the truth, the joker, new Bat toys and our ratings.
