This came out two days ago and I decided to check it out. Pretty awesome stuff. I liked the darker and more sinister tone, reminded me of the original 90's series. Worth watching http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/batman_under_the_red_hood/
I watched it last nite, another excellent film from Bruce Timm and co, it's pretty much a version of the Hush comic story line.
I thought the Joker's voice was a little off at first, but watching it throughout it was pretty bad ass.
Um, don't really see that. I saw it just once a couple weeks back, but from what I remember, it's basically just the Under the Red Hood storyline with a few tweaks. Kinda wish they would have left the Jason Todd beating by the Joker as brutal as it was in the comics. By keeping him onscreen and not showing any damage to his body or cosume, it kinda muted the effect. Other than that nipick, it was a pretty awesome movie. I hope they do make a "Hush" DTV though.
I watched it yesterday as well and I liked it a lot, but for me nothing beats the Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill voices, so I really had to ignore that throughout. Other than that it was great.
Too bad we have to endure another crappy Batman/Superman team-up movie before we might get another good Batman one.
Watching stuff like this makes me really kick myself for missing out on comics books when I was younger. It is impossible to pick up a comic book now because the story lines have been going on for decades. I really enjoyed this film watched this one and Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths
Hey at least Tim Daly and Kevin Conroy are back as the voices of Sups and Bats It doesn't look bad, looks like they are adapting the Michael Turner Darksied/Supergirl story line <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/UOgicHL1j9M&hl=en_US&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/UOgicHL1j9M&hl=en_US&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>
Saw this last week! A true treat for any Batman nerd! I loved it. One thing that really bothered me was that they had Jason in Tim's outfit when the warehouse exploded, and they pretty much cut out his mother as well. Other than that, solid movie.
Never really followed Marvel, Bruce Timm and his animated version are pretty much what got me into this stuff in the first place. Justice League Crisis on 2 Earths Wonder Woman Justice League New Frontier Are my Favorites of the Timm produced stuff.
I started a new thread. I'll copy your post here and throw in in with that one. If you don't mind, that is....
I'm being 100% honest when I say that all I can think of when I look at the title is cl!toral hood. I'll still watch it.
Just watched it a couple of days ago. Loved it. Voicing of Joker and Batman were pretty good. Like the ending too.
I think it was a worthy DVD rental. It's great material to use. Didn't like JL, New Frontier. I'm not that geeky to appreciate a classic retelling of the original Justice League without being bored of the plot and conclusion. Decent action. Didn't like the Doomsday movie either. Too mindless.
