(2:55) Meet Matthew Poulter

(12:40) Intro to the Nolanverse

(23:10) Rank the three movies.

(27:56) Do you think a Joseph Gordon-Levitt film could have worked?

(35:46) Do you believe that the Nolanverse showed that the quality of the world must be as important as any part of the story?

(44:24) It seems that while these movies are eternal, the ending was disappointing. Thoughts?

(54:40) What villain would you like to have seen get the Nolanverse treatment?

(1:03:11) What hero would you like see to have seen besides Green Arrow?

(1:10:59) Does Gotham Knight count as part of the Nolanverse? If so, does Killer Croc fit the style?

(1:15:43) If Heath Ledger had not died, what would have Dark Knight Rises looked like?

(1:21:02) What do you think of the theory that there were hidden villains in the movies?

(1:28:38) At the end of The Dark Knight, why doesn’t Batman reveal his identity to Harvey?

(1:33:15) How would the DCEU look if Nolan’s Batman been in the universe?
