Day four of our Batman 66 Week takes John and Dan Greenfield of the 13th Dimension website into a discussion of the best moments that stand out for the two in the television series.  There are quite a few, but we cover some of the top ones.

Comment on the episode here or write batcavepodcast@gmail.com.

Dan Greenfieldis the editor and co-creator of 13thDimension.com, a website devoted primarily to comics and pop culture, past and present. To him, the basic food groups are Batman, Planet of the Apes, Star Trek (the Original Series), James Bond, the Beatles and the Stones. But if he had to he'd be able to subsist on Batman alone. Channel 11 in New York was his favorite syndicated channel as a kid -- you can guess why -- followed closely by Channel 5. Channel 9 didn't really enter into it unless he was home sick and there wasn't much else on. He's married to his remarkably patient wife Wendy and his best sidekick is his son, Sam. They have two cats, Lex and Zod.

Here's how Tim describes this episode:

"November 15th, Midnight PST will be the final deadline for the 2015 Blue Cat Screenplay Competition. I’m very delighted that due to some last-minute scheduling, the founder and judge of Blue Cat, screenwriter, director and teacher Gordy Hoffman kindly took time out to tell us about what this very trusted screenwriting contests. Blue Cat is in its sixteenth year and has helped launched numerous writing careers, including “Rodham” screenwriter Young Il Kim and “Prisoners” co-writer Aaron Guzikowski among many others.

Gordy has been a huge asset to aspiring screenwriters since he launched Blue Cat and you’ll hear why as shares some of his great insights here. Every script that enters Blue Cat gets written feedback. Gordy tells us how writers should handle and address that feedback. Gordy also tells us what a writer should be concentrating on before they enter any contest. The good news, it’s all about the writing and not marketplace dictates. If you’re an aspiring or amateur screenwriter, inside or outside LA, looking for a door to get into the business, contests like Blue Cat are a great way. Find out why here and Enjoy!"

Dan Persons says:

A break from the standard Halloween fare of mad slashers and paranormal infestations, the new film HORNS brings a decidedly hometown slant to an examination of the good and evil that lives in all of us. Daniel Radcliffe plays Ig, a man (yes, man — we’re a long way from Hogwart’s) whose status within his small town after he’s accused of murdering his girlfriend isn’t at all helped once he starts growing a very Satanic pair of horns on his head. That these new appendages also compel people to confess their darkest desires and allow Ig to control their actions could be the double-edged sword that indicts him for his sins, or helps him find his love’s true murderer.

Director Alexandre Aja takes the wry intensity he brought to such projects as the remake of THE HILLS HAVE EYES and PIRHANA 3D, and turns it to a more Stephen Kingesque pallet with HORNS — not surprising, since the original novel was written by King’s son, Joe Hill. I got a chance to talk with Aja about his decision to steer his style in a new direction, working with Radcliffe, and more in this latest podcast. Click on the player to hear the show.

Is Danny dead? The Nethersphere may be an afterlife (or just more life), but it may also hide a much darker secret, with water that obscures the inorganic shell around skeletons in a honeycomb of tombs, and a leader that has clearly gained mastery of Time Lord technology. When the Doctor learns who and what is behind this new threat to all of humanity, he might wish he was dead! Scott and Arnold have two hearts, and they both belong to you as they discuss the first part of the Series 8 finale for DOCTOR WHO!

Show Music: Rory Hoy’s 50 Years Of Time And Space Mix.

“Slabtown” once stood where Grady Memorial Hospital now does, but the moral questions are still there as a group of survivors struggle to maintain their own sense of order in a city long since lost to the THE WALKING DEAD. When Beth awakens in this place, will it be a new home or a new prison? Join Arnold and Scott as they fill a tray with extra guinea pig and chat about the latest episode: What was good, what wasn’t so good, and what sort of grade does the Doctor think the episode deserves?

Also this episode: we talk about Citizen Z’s struggle to breathe and Murphy’s dark turn in Z NATION: “Zunami!”

Show Music: “Bitter Pill” (feat. Vosmoy) by Still Pluto.
