Android Blues posted:"The Joker has sex with a bunch of prostitutes to celebrate breaking out of Arkham" is exactly the sort of pointless faux-edgy thing that Extra Mature R Rated Animation for Matures seems to invite and which is actually about as developmentally advanced as a thirteen year old boy's notebook scribbles.

It's from October, but John Ostrander had some wary opinions on the Killing Joke movie adaptation which are worth a quick read. Of course, he didn't know about the added narrative beats at this time. If they were going to add a whole bunch of Pre-KJ Barbara stuff to the movie, they should have then included the Ostrander/Yale Barbara recovery story (Oracle: Year One, excerpts below) from Batman Chronicles 5 so theoretically, the movie becomes about the fall and rise of Barbara Gordon, not the fall and then further fall of Barbara Gordon. Is she just laid out in the hospital at the end the end of the movie or what? Do we even go back to her once Bats and Joker laugh together for a bit? redbackground fucked around with this message at 15:09 on Jul 27, 2016 |

Black Mage Knight posted:So does the movie even end with Batman strangling Joker? Because that was kinda part of the point of TKJ (alongside why it was meant to just be a what if story). That alongside exploring Jokers backstory it was showing what it would take for Joker to get Batman to finally kill. 2) Those things didn't happen in the book anyway, good job on completely misreading it. redbackground fucked around with this message at 15:13 on Jul 27, 2016 |

BravestOfTheLamps posted:That reading improves the story. Because then Joker really caused Batman to snap, in the perfect way possible. Batman has seen countless people killed, some he knew, some he had no connection to, for his entire life, by any number of regular criminals and superfreaks alike, but THIS TIME it's murder'o'clock! The Arkham games were hit and miss on how they handled certain characters, but they got it absolutely right when at the end of City, Batman says he would still have tried to save Joker's life with the antidote, even after all that had happened. The Joker causing Batman to snap and start killing is the dumbest and laziest possible story beat. Black Mage Knight posted:I apologize for misreading it then. I just always took the sudden stop to laughter to imply a strangling. redbackground fucked around with this message at 15:36 on Jul 27, 2016 |

Timeless Appeal posted:There's nothing on the page to explicitly support it, but it's not an invalid reading. Timeless Appeal posted:I get Batman not killing, but you know what, let the Joker dying of an illness thing play itself out. It's like if Superman used his X-Ray vision to find out that the Joker had cancer and Batman captured the guy to force chemo treatment on him. redbackground fucked around with this message at 16:41 on Jul 27, 2016 |

SonicRulez posted:The script isn't in the copy of The Killing Joke that I read. That's not really relevant. Same way that the story being canon and Joker being alive is irrelevant. The comic itself leaves the ending ambiguous and open for interpretation. That's all I was saying. Redbackground being all "Lel ur wrong you misread it" is what I took issue with. I think most people here believe Batman didn't kill Joker or interpreted the story that way. It's debatable though in the context of JUST the story and no other supplementary material. It's not like the story doesn't have other moments that are left up in the air. It's a shoddy interpretation because the panels obviously show a quick progression from friendly tickling to serious make-out session.

BioTech posted:Wasn't there a comic where a bitter, wheelchair-bound Barbara called out Batman for sharing a laugh with the Joker after he crippled her? I seem to remember a panel where she mentions this and Batman is ashamed or something.

Lurdiak posted:Yeah basically this is the most likely issue. And it's important to remember that the TNG blu-rays sold for poo poo because people would rather watch the 4:3 un-remastered version on netflix than have to like... buy a blu-ray set and like, put it in their blu-ray player. The push for more fidelity is well and truly dead now that the people have spoken and they want convenience and low prices instead. A BTAS blu-ray would be competing with past releases, and only the most die-hard fans would go for it. Also, buying tv shows on disc lol Also, I thought ST:TNG on netflix was the remastered version. redbackground fucked around with this message at 15:49 on Feb 22, 2017 |

haitfais posted:If they want to, yes. No one would have a problem with Hamill or Conroy giving it their all until they can't give no more, but they've tried to retire more than once and their more recent work doesn't really hold up compared to their older work. It doesn't feel like their hearts are in it anymore, and if that's the case they should probably move on for reals.

ToastyPotato posted:So looking it up, the animated version of Phantasm never appeared outside of the DCAU (and associated comics)? I see that there are other characters called Phantasm, but not specifically this one. She popped back in during JLU's "Epilogue" in flashback. e: misread your question--you are correct

purple death ray posted:I think every so often you have to have Catwoman do something obviously criminal just to keep her on the fence of "anti hero" because otherwise she ends up well on the side of good guy, and I feel like it's better for her character to be distanced from that. Kind-of-sort-of-related, but how did that whole thing end up with her maybe killing a whole bunch of people in one of the Batman comics recently? (I don't know really any more details than that)

I'm making my way through Batman everything, for the time being its animated stuff and I was thinking I'd re-watch the movie along with my first re-watch of TAS in...uh, I don't think I ever watched all of TAS, actually. It was OK. I have never felt the need to rewatch it, but I guess I'm glad I watched it in the first place.

Reinanigans posted:I haven't watched B:TAS since I was a kid, but I saw that it's on Prime video. The Batwing never looked better than in that episode. Yeah, Basement sucks, I think one one with Penguin taking over the Batmobile was pretty bad, the one with the space cult was pretty lame and the terrible animation didn't help, and whatever episodes Red Claw was the villain are worth skipping.

Based purely off the way Spider-Man moved his legs around while running and spinning around, his secret identity must be Dean Venture.
