"Batman: The Animated Series"kept getting second leases on life. After running the syndication-required 65 episodes (the absolute most that cartoons often got back then) from 1992 to 1993, the series got 20 more episodes the following year. Rebranded as"The Adventures of Batman & Robin,"this back 20 has some of the all-time best"Batman"TV episodes:"Trial,""House and Garden, "" Harlequinade, "" Harley's Holiday, "and"Baby Doll."I shudder to think of a world without them.

After wrapping for real in 1995, Batman returned to television a mere two years later. "The New Batman Adventures"was a sequel to" The Animated Series, "with the same core voice cast and crew. Some fans and official releases even label" Adventures "as just another season of" The Animated Series. "The show's styles and settings, though, are different enough to stand apart.

Batman: The Animated Seriesis an animated pulp-noir superhero action-adventure series created byEric RadomskiandBruce W. Timm.

Batman: The Animated Series is one of the most iconic pieces of television of all time, having laid the foundations for the Dcau as well as revolutionized storytelling in animation. One of the biggest reasons for its success has to be its co-creator,Bruce Timm,who has an innate understanding of the characters he portrays, which also helped him create other beloved projects likeJustice League,Batman: Beyond, andSuperman: The Animated Series.

Batman: The Animated Series

Despite these, the original 1992 series has to be one of his most significant works to date. Despite being as successful as it was, it is a difficult truth that the series was canceled due to a decline in its hype and quality. Since the release of its final season, however, its viewership has only grown, and it still stands as one of the best-animated works of all time.

The idea of robots taking control of our world is one that has provided many storylines to multiple franchises over the years. Even major comic franchises like Marvel and DC have also written storylines and characters on these storylines as we have witnessed in many series and movies over the years.

Once inBatman: The Animated Series,a duplicate robot of the Caped Crusader appeared in the series and tried to create more of his kind to take over the world. The episode seemed to resemble the plot of the 1982 science fiction film,Blade Runner.

Over the years, we have seen many versions of Batman in animated series, live actions, and video games. However, not many of them have been able to make an impact as huge asBatman: The Animated Series...

Cillian Murphyrecently had some choice words for his filmRed Eye(watch it Here), aWes Craven-directed thriller that was released back in 2005. But he wasn’t entirely negative. So that got me thinking: IsRed Eyea good film? Or is it more in the so bad it’s good category? I personally sawRed Eyein theaters and have always had a soft spot for it. But if Oppenheimer‘s own Cillian Murphy has an issue with it, maybe it’s worth a second gander. So let’s see whether it’s good, bad, or somewhere in between as we revisitRed Eyein the video embedded above!

Scripted byCarl Ellsworth,who crafted the story withDan Foos,Red Eyehas the following synopsis: In the wake of her grandmother’s funeral, hotel manager Lisa Reisert is waiting to fly back home when she meets charming Jackson Rippner at check-in.

One of the more underrated entries on the filmography of the late, greatWes Cravenis his 2005 filmRed Eye(watch it Here), which packs a lot of thrills, action, and good acting into its perfectly quick 85 minute running time. So I’m glad to hear thatParamount Home Media Distributionis planning to giveRed Eyea 4K Blu-ray release on March 21st, with new special features!

Blu-ray.com reports that the special features on this edition ofRed Eyewill include

"He will be sorely missed not just by the cast of the series but by his legion of fans all over the world,” Pershing shared on Facebook today.

Pershing went on to speak about Conroy with a series of photos.

The end of an era is upon us. Reports fromKevin Conroy's colleagues in the animation industry indicate that the prolific and unparalleled voice actor, most famous for defining the voice of Batman and Bruce Wayne for an entire generation of fans in multiple mediums and a plethora of different projects, has passed away at the age of 66 -- just weeks shy of his next birthday. News of the acting legend's death first broke on aFacebookpost by fellow voice actorDiane Pershing,who voicedPoison Ivyin "Batman: The Animated Series."According to Pershing, Conroy had been sick for some time, though his cause of death is yet unconfirmed. Here's what she had to say in her post, which appeared on her Facebook page early morning on November 11, 2022:

One of the strengths found inBatman: The Animated Seriesis its compassion for heroes and villains alike. In this series, inspired by the success ofTim Burton’s 1989 feature film, writers and animators alike brought a more adult, more mature approach to the stories, rewriting the rules for children’s animated fare.

In time, this gave them license to explore larger themes through direct-to-video films achieving mostly successes. Overlooked until now, is Batman &Mr. Freeze:SubZero, released this week byWarnerarchive for the first time on Blu-ray. Written byRandy RogelandBoyd Kirklandand directed by Kirkland, they build on the tragedy of Victor Fries.

The origin of Mr. Freeze was presented in “Heart of Ice”, written byPaul Diniand directed byBruce Timm,explaining the accident that forced him to live in a cold suit and what twisted his mind.

With the recent Dceu movie turning out to be not as good as it could have been, there’s still no beating theJustice Leagueanimated series as the finest screen adaptation ofDC’s super-team to date. Airing from 2001 to 2006 (if you count the revampedJustice League Unlimitedas the same show), the series is still remembered fondly – hence the interest in getting the cast back together for a reunion.

As part of the ongoing social media campaign to getWarner Bros.Animation to put something together, actressSusan Eisenberg– who playedWonder Woman– shared a Tweet to whip up some support from fans. In response, one individual questioned whetherMark Hamillcould be involved as well, given that he played the Joker in several episodes of the show, which was a spinoff of the acclaimedBatman: The Animated Series.

This may make you feel old and happy at the same time! It’s been 20 years since Batman &Mr. Freeze:SubZero was released and to honor the anniversary,Warner Archive Collectionis coming out with a remastered Blu-ray version of the award-winning animated film. Below are all the details on the release and some special news for Wondercon 2018 attendees.

Originally released as a direct-to-video film on March 17, 1998, Batman & Mr. Freeze: Sub-Zero will be released on Blu-ray in its original 4×3 Fullframe aspect ratio. The 67-minute film will be accompanied by several special features, including Art of Batman: Music Montage; Get the Picture: How to Draw Batman; the film’s theatrical trailer; and theBatman: The Animated Series/The Bew Batman Adventures/Batman Beyond“Mr. Freeze Saga” in chronological order – four episodes entitled “Heart of Ice,” “Deep Freeze,” “Cold Comfort” and “Meltdown.” The episodes will be presented in standard definition.

As much asHarley Quinnis still having a moment off the back ofSuicide Squad,the animated featureBatman and Harley Quinnis mostly a wasted opportunity.

The story includes some great elements that are delivered exceptionally well, but the positives are fighting an uphill battle against fart jokes and other inanities. How the combination came together is anyone’s guess, but it renders the whole a frustrating mix that can’t get out of its own way.

Poison Ivyand Jason Woodrue (The Floronic Man) have a scheme to save the world from the pollution and general pillaging of humans by mutating everyone into plant hybrids. The theory being that people will then have a more vested interest in keeping the world safe. It isn’t a scheme that makes a lot of sense, but crazy people and druid creatures from other dimensions make their own brand of sense.

Warner Animation’s just-releasedBatman and Harley Quinnis an interesting project from the standpoint of it being a more mature sequel to theBatman: The Animated Serieswhile still fitting into the now cohesive DC Animated Universe. It has the look and feel of the classic series while the content and themes are vastly different in keeping with Harley’s prominence in all-things DC these days along with upping the stakes in a longer production.

That said, the production is very entertaining and a welcome 30th film in the line of animated projects (the DC Universe: 10th Anniversary Collection is expected in November).

It’s a lot of fun to haveBruce Timm,Harley’s co-creator back in action as a co-scriptwriter.Sam Liuis also back to direct so we have a lot of veteran talent to bring tremendous affection to the project and it shows in every detail.

Well, the highly anticipatedBatman and Harley Quinnanimated film has finally arrived and, while I shouldn’t be surprised that it’s already stirring up controversy, I am. It seems like nobody can create any sort of art these days without enduring some sort of backlash, but that’s just the world we live in. Before diving into my review, I’ll preface by saying this movie is in no way for kids, but if you’re a prude, you may also want to sit this one out.

I say that because this aesthetic return toThe New Batman Adventuresfeels like an extended episode of that very series, but with much raunchy humor packed in. And as a guy with a raunchy sense of humor of his own who (mostly) keeps it under wraps in his writing, I can say that I appreciated most of it. To be quite honest,...

Aka Dr Harleen Quinzel,Harley Quinnfirst appeared inBatman: The Animated Seriesin 1992. Originally voice byDays of Our Lives’Arleen Sorkin,she was created by series writersBruce TimmandPaul Dinias an object of amusement for the Joker. A squeaking sufferer of “Histrionic Personality Disorder”, she has gone from kooky sidekick to become the star of the New 52’s most original – and most insane – new series.

It’s immediately apparent thatBatman and Harley Quinn,the new standalone feature fromWarner Bros. Animation,written by Timm and directed by DC veteranSam Liu,is firmly rooted in the classic TV show. Everything is here, from the minimalist Art Deco styling, to the perennial orange sunset, to that definitive half-Elfman score.

With just weeks to go until the release of the next DC animated movie, Batman and Harley Quinn, you could say that dropping a prequel comic couldn’t have come at a more opportune time. Sure, the publisher could’ve put just anybody on this project hoping to cash in on the name value of the co-headliners, but the aptly titledHarley QuinnandBatmanis so much more.

Thanks to the fan favorite creative team of writerTy Templetonand artist Rich Burchett, this digital first series feels like a true continuation ofThe New Batman Adventuresin every possible way. From the character designs (Nightwing’s mullet is captured in all its glory) to the spot on dialogue, it’s hard not to hear the voices ofKevin Conroy,Mark Hamill,Loren LesterandArleen Sorkinwhen reading along.

Warner Bros. Animationhas released the first full trailer for their DC animated film Batman and Harley Quinn. The film revolves aroundBatman(Kevin Conroy) and Nightwing (Loren Lester) who are forced to reluctantly team-up withHarley Quinn(Melissa Rauch) in an attempt to stop a global catastrophe caused byPoison Ivy(Paget Brewster) and Jason Woodrue, Aka the Floronic Man.

As you'll see in the trailer, this film has a lighter and more playful tone and style reminiscent ofBatman: The Animated Series.It has a more comedic tone than anything else DC has done recently with their animated films. It actually looks like it could end up being a fun flick!

Watch the trailer and tell us what you think!

Without a doubt,Warner Bros. Animationhave been on a roll in 2017 when it comes to their direct-to-video line of DC animated films, already having impressed audiences with the R-rated supernatural adventureJustice League Darkand the long overdueTeen Titans:The Judas Contract. As for what lies ahead, well, it looks like they’re about to appeal to our nostalgic side with Batman and Harley Quinn.

I say that because this particular entry doesn’t conform to any one comic book artist’s style, nor does it toPhil Bourassa’s New 52 inspired template. Actually, it aligns perfectly withThe New Batman Adventures– or “the revamp episodes,” as they’re often referred to – giving a generous nod to whatBruce Timmestablished two decades ago.Truth be told,it makes sense to go in this creative direction when you consider that Timm himself is one of the creative minds behind this project.

Whenever a new DC animated movie is released on Blu-ray or DVD, the bonus feature I look forward to seeing most is the sneak peek that offers insight into the next film on the slate. In this case, the home video release forTeen Titans:The Judas Contract brings our first look at Batman and Harley Quinn.

To many, a project like this seems like a no-brainer. After all,Batmanis arguably WB’s greatest cash cow andHarley Quinnhas been on a meteoric rise in recent years, no doubt having received an even bigger boost by theSuicide Squadfeature film and all the merchandise that came along with. Add to that the knowledge that one of her co-creators,Bruce Timm,is one of the minds behind the project, and you have a potential hit on your hands.

Given that Timm is working on this, it shouldn...

In recent years, DC animated films have followed a certain model, releasing two movies told within a continuity heavily influenced by the New 52, with one out of continuity standalone to follow. In the case of 2017,Justice LeagueDark andTeen Titans:The Judas Contract continue carrying the New 52 torch, with Batman and Harley Quinn being the outside the box offering.

Up until now, not much has been known about Batman and Harley Quinn aside from the fact that it will be an original feature from the mind of one of the Clown Princess of Crime’s co-creators,Bruce Timm.Now, however, an image has surfaced that speaks volumes as to what we can look forward to.

As it so happens, the folks at The World’s Finest spotted the first photo to be taken from the film on the iTunes extras page forTeen Titans:The Judas Contract.

From the 1970’s and 80’s to now, one thing will always be a sad constant: bullies will always exist. And there will always be that weak-willed teenager who is the constant target of these awful people. But, there’s always this fulfillment that comes about from films like Patrick and Carrie, that the bullied kid has a tendency to lash out at those who oppress them with otherworldly forces. These kids search outward for any escape and that leads them to some very dark corners. In the case ofEvilspeak,that dark corner is The Devil himself, and the results are typically gory and fantastically outrageous.

Normally, this is the part of the review where I wax nostalgic, and talk a little bit about what this particular “cult classic” means to me. In the case ofEvilspeak,though, I can only claim to have known of its existence. I saw it on the video store shelf, but I never made the plunge and took it home. It’s surprising to me, honestly, because I think I rented damn near everything on the horror rack at least twice. I don’t know the reason that I continued to sitEvilspeak’s box back on the shelf, but I wish I had watched it back then, as it’s quite an entertaining movie.
