Description: For our third in the straight to the sequel September series, we're talking about Christopher Nolan's 2008 film, The Dark Knight. We discuss the dark/light motif that weaves through every aspect of the film, the significant overlap between good guys and bad guys, the mysterious background of the Joker and Heath Ledger's incredible performance, the technical innovations Nolan's team made shooting narrative film on IMAX for the first time, and whether "honest politician" is an oxymoron. This isn't your run of the mill superhero flick, so gas up the Batpod and join us!
