9. BATMAN BEYOND | Cyberpunk for TEENAGERS: a video essay (English version)

What does this series owe its success to? Ninth episode of a series of Batman video essays.

As Matt Reeves' Batman approaches, I offer video essays retracing the filmography of the Dark Knight. The first two episodes serve as an introduction so that we understand where the character comes from and the role he plays in our collective imagination.

This video is an english translation of my original french video. English is not my first language and I tried my best to translate my text and to pronounce it the correct way with the little time I have. It's obviously not perfect, but I thought some people would prefer this to the subtitles. Constructive criticism is of course welcome. I hope you enjoy the video!
