After last week’s comic book-style cliffhanger in part one, Mike swoops in to continue his comic book-to-movie adaptation anthology, covering the years 1998-2008. He kicks off with Wesley Snipes in Blade, explores the film births of X-Men, Spider-Man, and Iron Man, and does a deep dive into the darker evolution of the Batman franchise. You don’t want to miss this episode (and next week’s wrap-up) in this exploration of comic books in film. For tickets to any CLASSIC CINEMAS theatre, please visit us online.
