You've jumped to assuming they were talking about that very specific movie though, hence the confusion. They did loads of good ones, Dark Knight Returns Part 1 and 2, Year One, the Adam West ones and one of the Wonder Woman ones at the very least spring to mind for me at least. It was hardly "quickly modified" either cause if the basic concept was supposed to have been a bridge between JL and JLU (which started in 2004) and then the film came out in 2010, that's a pretty large gap. It always sounded more like they just had the concept still laying around, regretted never doing it at the time and then used it for an animated movie that worked reasonably well standalone. I don't think you can really lay it as a success of the feet of the JLU folks with that gap though.

Notably, it's where Wonder Woman was supposed to get her invisible jet in the DCAU... not that it matters since it only gets used like once in JLU.

Back when they got Telecom or MOI Animation to work on their movies, the DC stuff looked nice. I'm not sure who they're using nowadays but its stiff as anything.

Then said he was done unless they made the Killing Joke? Then he was done for reals, except then during 2016 he took to twitter and did literal Trump Quotes in Joker Voice?

He definitely said he was done after the Arkham games, at least. I can definitely see this one sticking though e: f,b

Has Hamill done The Joker in anything that had someone other than Conroy as Batman?

According to Wiki, he did a voiceover for the Birds of Prey TV show, as well as on Robot Chicken. He's said after Conroy died he wouldn't do it again though

I looked up IMDB:
It would be even more plausible if it was some kind of marketing deal to help Minimates? There was also a weird thing at the time when Minimates didn't technically have the license to make minifigures of DC characters, but they did have the license to make building sets (Lego knockoffs) that minifigures could be part of. Just weird.

Thinking about it more fair point, I take it back (though interesting they seem to be portraying Harley and Joker’s relationship in a positive light compared to most recent media). As I also said though, as odd as the concept is and the fact they could have picked a better title for it this still looks like it could be worth a shot regardless Speaking of, did that X-Men anime or the Ninja Batman movie from a while back ever get dubbed? I’m just curious what the odds are of this coming stateside Larryb fucked around with this message at 17:36 on Dec 2, 2023 |

All the Marvel anime aired on G4 back when that was around and I think they're still around on DVD, though I have no idea about streaming. Batman Ninja is available right now on Max. and dude it's a loving Suicide Squad show, there's a 0% chance it won't come over here.

Nowadays the only anime that doesn't have an official US release is like, kindergarten stuff that's super ingrained with the culture and Pokemon.

Of the previous Japanese DC productions: - Batman: Gotham Knight (2008, animated anthology film set in the Nolanverse) - Batman: Ninja (2018, CG movie) - Catwoman: Hunted (2022, animated movie kind of sort of set in the Young Justice universe?) all got English releases and dubs. The only thing that never did was a crossover movie with a very niche anime series that I can't remember the name of from a few years back. This show is going to get a US release for sure. Now, given that Batman Ninja infamously had a dub script made up from whole cloth because the writers never got a copy of the Japanese script in time for recording, the quality of that English release might vary.

Also apparently the writer for Re:Zero is penning the script for this (I’ve never seen that series but from what I hear it seems to be fairly well regarded)

i'm just angry that isekai has solidified enough as a concept in English that wb feels comfortable putting it in the title of a DC thing then again they also made a RWBY crossover so maybe DC is now where Scooby Doo used to be

You're right, we need a Scooby Doo isekai 1 cour, they get summoned by siblings or something to save their farm, Velma is in so much denial the rest of the team reassures her that it's all just a dream. Once they beat Old Man Jennosuke they embark to the castle capital to get transported back, and on the way there they solve 9 more mysteries before they prove the castle isn't haunted. Commit super hard and make the gang stay inan American art style inside the anime world.

Reminds me of a fanfic I read a while ago that was a sequel to the Scooby-Doo crossover episode of Johnny Bravo that broadened it to crossover with a bunch of other WB properties as well as being a crossover/sequel to JoJo's Bizarre Adventures: The Steel Ball Run and actually managed to make what should have been a complete pile of nonsense into something actually rather compelling
