    Hulk vs Wolverine was a good one, and there's also Hulk vs Thor.

    I now have 15+ hours of the geekiest, dorkiest stuff to watch. But I don't care because it's awesome. And I even have a girlfriend.

    Here's everything I have on my 'to watch' list:

    Batman - Mask of the Phantasm
    Batman Beyond - Return of the Joker (uncut)
    Batman - Gotham Knight
    Superman/Batman - Public Enemies
    Superman - Doomsday
    Batwoman
    Green Lantern - First Flight
    Justice League - Crisis on Two Earths
    Justice League - The New Frontier
    Wonder Woman
    Ultimate Avengers
    The Invincible Iron Man
    Doctor Strange - The Sorcerer Supreme
    Hulk Vs.
    Planet Hulk

    Am I missing anything?

    Batman Gotham Knight, Ultimate Avengers 2, and the Iron Man movie sucked balls.

    Also, I recommend the Astonishing X-Men motion comic series. It's only the first 6 issues of Whedon's run, but it's a good adaptation.

    Got pretty much all of it (bolded my faves), save for "Ultimate Avengers 2" and "Next Avengers" (which are pretty 'meh' since Marvel seems to not give a damn about the quality of most of their DTVs). I would also recommend "Batman & Mr. Freeze: Subzero" and the surprisingly good "Batman vs Dracula" DTV based off of the "The Batman" series. There's also the "DC Showcase" short films including "Jonah Hex" and "The Spectre."

    Also, there's some episode arcs from Justice League and JL Unlimited that make for awesome DTV-like movies:

    "Starcrossed" Parts 1-2 and 3. "Alive!" and "Destroyer", "A Better World" parts 1 and 2, the ending arc of season 2 of JLU (4 episodes: "Question Authority-Flashpoint-Panic in the Sky-Divided We Fall"), "Once and future Thing" parts 1 and 2, and "Twilight" parts 1 and 2.

    (Btw, if you can dl them all, watch these timmverse DCAU episodes in this order: "Apokolips... Now!" 1&2 from S:TAS, "Legacy" 1&2 from S;TAS, "Twilight", "Alive," and "Destroyer." and you'll have a blast. Really covers the awesome Superman vs. Darkseid arc nicely. )

    Geeky addition, if you can, watch the JLU episode "For the Man Who has Everything." It's a retelling of one of DC's classic comics featuring Bats, Supes, and WW, that all superhero fans will like.

    Oh, and Greg Weisman's recent "Spectacular Spider-Man" animated seires. The whole series. All of it. Trust me, you will not be disappointed.

    Just watched Return of the Joker again. I'd forgotten how much I liked Batman Beyond's music. Good stuff.

    I agree. LOVED the theme. You hardly ever see a theme like this for a "kids" show:

    <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Nx23F5mjlC0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Nx23F5mjlC0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

    1st season of BB was spectacular. If the studio hadn't gotten overly involved in the second season (introducing the MarySue-esque Max character, forcing plots involving high school) it would have been awesome also. Even the crossovers with JLU, Static Shock, and The Zeta Project were pretty good.

    Bonus clip, the entire flashback scene from ROTJ, featuring Robin's torture and Joker's death:

    <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6QPGqqLYSjg&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6QPGqqLYSjg&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>

    Great stuff.

    Man, I miss the DCAU. Could talk about it all day....

    Mask of the Phantasm was excellent.

    Yep. Lots of folks don't realize that comics can get pretty dark and violent. I loves teh violence.

    Good stuff. The entire recent DC animated DVD series is good. Surprisingly, Wonder Woman is probably the best one IMO. The older Return of the Joker was also an excellent movie.

    Haha. There's five actually.

    Dick Grayson (who is now my personal fave superhero, Nightwing, as you saw in "Under the Red Hood")

    Jason Todd (Tortured and killed by Joker after everyone voted for him to die. Now Red Hood)

    Tim Drake (the one getting tortured and perverted by Joker in the ROTJ clip I posted. In the comics he is now "Red Robin")

    Stephanie Brown (Tim's former girlfriend who is now Batgirl)

    Damien Wayne (son of Bruce and Talia Al Guhl, Ras's daughter. The current Robin)
