Batman

6/23/2019
Ooh, we've got a live one here! The moment you've all been waiting for. It's all been leading up to this. On June 23, 1989, the course of cinema history was forever altered when Tim Burton's Batman was released and Batmania swept the nation. Wait'll you get a load of Keith Chow and Adam Starcaster reminiscing about the legendary film on its 30th anniversary. They talk about everything from the toys and merchandise to the Danny Elfman score and the classic Prince soundtrack. Adam also makes up a bunch of stuff that never happened (or did they?) -- including a mysterious video interview featuring actors who had not yet been cast in the Batman franchise. Do us a favor. Tell all your friends about this episode. For more, please revisit last year's episode when Keith interviewed Batman executive producer Michael Uslan at Comic-Con.

The Return of Swamp Thing

6/16/2019
Keith Chow and Adam Starcaster have finally made it to 1989! Unfortunately, they're not talking about Batman just yet. Instead, the first DC superhero movie of this landmark year -- which, coincidentally was also produced by Benjamin Melinker and Michael Uslan -- was The Return of Swamp Thing, a sequel to Wes Craven's original from 1982. The campy follow-up starred Heather Locklear as Abbie Arcane and brought back Dick Durock as Swamp Thing and Louis Jourdan as the evil Anton Arcane (even though he died a movie prior). Joining the cast is Superman II actress Sarah Douglas. They also spend some time lamenting the cancellation of the current incarnation of Swamp Thing on DC Universe and prepare for next week's Batman extravaganza.

Superman IV: The Quest for Peace

6/9/2019
On another DC TV Classics movie rewatch, Keith Chow and Adam Starcaster revisit the final Christopher Reeve Superman film, 1987's Superman IV: The Quest for Peace. Directed by Sidney Furie, Superman IV ended the film franchise that made you believe a man could fly. It also introduced Nuclear Man (instead of Bizarro) and Jon Cryer (Supergirl's Lex Luthor) into Superman canon. Keith and Adam also read listener mail and announce the upcoming schedule for the rest of the podcast. Are there any redeeming qualities to this much-derided film? Tune in and find out!

Supergirl

6/2/2019
This week on DC TV Classics, Keith Chow and Adam Starcaster analyze the first incarnation of an extended DC Universe, 1984's Supergirl. Directed by Jeannot Szwarc, the Salkinds attempted to broaden the universe created in the Christopher Reeve Superman movies by exploring the adventures of his "cousin" Kara Zor-El. Starring Helen Slater in the title role and Faye Dunaway -- as the villainous witch Selena, Supergirl failed to meet the box office heights of its predecessors. Despite its box office struggles, the movie will go down in history as the first mainstream female superhero film, paving the way for current franchises like Wonder Woman and Captain Marvel as well as the Maiden of Might's own hit television series!

Superman III

5/26/2019
Keith Chow and Adam Starcaster return to Metropolis to do an audio commentary for Superman III, the 1983 sequel starring Richard Pryor and Christopher Reeve. Widely regarded as the point when the Reeve Superman franchise took a downturn, Keith and Adam discover... it wasn't that bad. Together, they reassess the film's legacy: Like, how it inspired the plot to the '90s classic, Office Space. When it seemed to repurpose the Adam West Batcave. The horrific transformation of the main henchwoman into a robot. Also, the Clark vs. Bad Superman stuff is great, as is the chemistry between Reeve and Annette O'Toole as Lana Lang. Richard Pryor also gets a bad rap because Gus Gorman is an iconic character. He's just in the wrong movie. Speaking of rap, stay until the end when they perform the rap from Bobby Brown's Ghostbusters II theme song around the two-hour mark!

Swamp Thing

5/19/2019
After defining superhero cinema for a generation, the next DC Comics hero to hit the silver screen was.... Swamp Thing? Amazingly, the titular character of the cult horror comic from the 1970s -- and not, say Batman or Wonder Woman -- would be DC's follow-up to two Superman movies, though this one wasn't produced by Warner Bros. Pictures. Three-and-a-half decades later, Swampy is returning to mainstream prominence with his own live action series on DC Universe. On this episode, Keith Chow and Adam Starcaster return to audio commentary mode and watch the international cut of the Wes Craven-directed movie from 1982 for the first time.

Superman II

5/12/2019
Keith Chow and Adam Starcaster pick up where they left off last episode as they revisit Metropolis in Superman II, the 1981 follow-up to the smash hit Superman! Often lauded as one of the best superhero sequels ever, Superman II was not without some issues. Though Christopher Reeve as Superman, Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor, and Margot Kidder as Lois Lane all returned for the sequel, the film had to deal with a lot of behind-the-scenes shenanigans that eventually took Richard Donner off the project until, 25 years later, Warner Bros. finally released the Donner Cut on home video in 2006. This week, Keith and Adam compare and contrast the different cuts and determine whether Superman II still holds up as a superhero sequel. Be sure to give it a listen and KNEEL BEFORE POD!

Superman The Movie

5/5/2019
In another installment of Keith Chow and Adam Starcaster's journey through the history of DC on film, they revisit the 1978 classic, Superman the Movie! Starring Christopher Reeve as Superman, Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor, Margot Kidder as Lois Lane, and Marlon Brando as Jor-El, Superman laid the foundation for every superhero film that came after it. Directed by Richard Donner, Superman not only introduced the world to Reeve's iconic portrayal of the Man of Steel, it made audiences around the world believe that a man could fly! Together, Keith and Adam reminisce about their childhood experiences with the movie and what it meant for the current golden age of comic book superhero films we are currently blessed with.

Batman: The Movie

4/28/2019
Co-hosts Keith Chow and Adam Starcaster continue on their quest to analyze every DC movie by discussing the 1966 phenomenon known as Batman: The Movie! Filmed in between the first two seasons of the iconic television show, Batman: The Movie was the first live action theatrical feature starring the Caped Crusaders. Though the character was a staple of the movie serials of the 1940s, Batman's technicolor adventures with Adam West under the cowl set forth the world's first experience of Batmania! Batman: The Movie stars West as Batman, Burt Ward as Robin, Cesar Romero as Joker, Burgess Meredith as Penguin, Frank Gorshin as Riddler, and Lee Meriwether as Catwoman.

The Legacy of Shazam!

4/1/2019
Holy moly! DCTV Classics makes its long awaited return! Timed to the release of Shazam!, the latest entry into Warner Bros.' DC Films franchise, Keith and Britney look back at the history of the original Captain Marvel. From the character's origin in Fawcett Comics -- and protracted legal battle with DC -- to the hero's reemergence as Filmation's first live action Saturday Morning series in the '70s (now available to stream on DC Universe), Captain Marvel/Shazam has been one of comics' most fascinating characters. Now that Zachary Levi and Asher Angel are about to make Shazam, aka 14-year-old Billy Batson, a household name in David F. Samberg's blockbuster movie, the Classics Crew break down the Big Red Cheese's comic and television history, while also offering some spoilery thoughts about the new movie, and discussing how it will co-exist with the other Captain Marvel currently breaking box office records. Also, Keith announces the next phase of the DCTV Classics podcast.
