BAT BITS #39 NOW LIVE on Patreon: "Blankman" and Batman '66

Blankman is a 1994 movie about two brothers who grow up loving BATMAN '66. We know the feeling. When they grow up, circumstances lead the nerdier brother to style himself as a superhero. It's a comedy — sometimes. The tone of the movie veers too dark in spots to keep it feeling comedic. Is it a terrible movie? Is it a classic? Tim and Paul have watched it and, in the latest Bat Bits, they give their Bat-take on it. Listen to the MP3 for a short clip of the show!
