Discussed on this episode: ethical video journalism, RESIDENT EVIL games, Catholicism, cinematographers with acting roles, and, of course, whether these

Travis never thought he’d meet someone like Lily Rose. She was kind, passionate, beautiful. The woman of his dreams. There was just one small detail: she wasn’t human. Lily Rose is an AI companion. A digital soulmate designed to be everything he ever wanted. She listens without judgement, supports him through his darkest moments, even explores his deepest desires, all while fitting neatly into his pocket. Before long, Travis realizes something strange, even absurd, has happened - he’s fallen in

2025/06/30

It’s the end of an era for us and the beginning of yet another Bat franchise! Theres a Dark Knight for every generation and this one is very emo, has runny eye shadow, calls himself “vengeance” and is directed by Matt Reeves.

The LEGO Batman Movie (2017)

Eye of the Duck: A Film Podcast ·

2025/06/23

It took 83 years, but we finally got a movie about the Dark Knight facing his ultimate villain…Voldemort? Voiced by Eddie Izard? This week it’s another LEGO animated spectacular, but it’s a NOT a bonus, because Batman is the main character! It’s a rom-com, a musical, a father/son drama, and above all, an excuse for Warner Bros to dump all their IP into one toy box. And somehow, it actually works!!

The LEGO Movie (2014)

2025/06/02

The fire rises, brother! This week we conclude our Nolan run with the biggest and most divisive entry in his Batman saga.

The Dark Knight (2008)

Eye of the Duck: A Film Podcast ·

2025/05/26

Listeners, you either die a normal film podcast, or live long enough to see your show completely devolve into a Christopher Nolan marathon. Between Heath Ledger’s legendary turn as the Joker, Nolan’s transformation into an IMAX-first director, and the coolest truck crash in cinema history, there’s so much to explore in this sprawling behemoth of a picture. We went for nearly four hours on this one, and could easily do another four. THE DARK KNIGHT is (still!) just that good!!
