Since 2010, the We Hate Movies podcast has been loudly celebrating and tearing apart movies from across the spectrum: from forgotten '80s actioners and insane romantic comedies of the '90s, to the early CGI blockbusters of the aughts and the hyper-nostalgic franchises of the 2010s and today. Every week, comedians Andrew Jupin, Stephen Sajdak, Eric Szyszka, and Chris Cabin pick a movie from the near-past to discuss and joke around about in all its positive and negative glory.

episode 707: Batman Begins (W❤️M)
“I, in my home, right now, have a bat from the movie Batman Begins” - Steve
On this week’s episode, W❤️M month continues as we chat about Chris Nolan’s fabulous comic book adaptation, Batman Begins! Has there been a softer Little Boy Bruce Wayne in cinema? Why couldn’t they have put a little more spirit gum on Liam Neeson’s goatee at the beginning? How fantastic is Cillian Murphy in this and shouldn’t Scarecrow have been a larger character? Does anyone have proof that Pennyworth was a real show and not just a tax shelter? And why can’t more studios look to these Nolan films to reassure themselves that it’s… okay to recast an actor? Hmm? PLUS: Batman blows his fortune on movie merch!
Batman Begins stars Christopher Nolan, Cillian Murphy, Gary Oldman, Katie Holmes, Liam Neeson, Tom Wilkinson, Ken Watanabe, Rutger Hauer, Linus Roache, Mark Boone Junior, Morgan Freeman, Richard Brake, and Sir Michael Caine as Alfred Pennyworth; directed by Christopher Nolan.
