Batman Caped Crusader Review of Season 1 Episode 1 of the new Amazon Prime video Batman Series by JJ Abrams. With lots of characters being swapped for a more Hollywood acceptable version. Of course switching out these characters turns Batman into a comedy. An accidental parody comedy, but comedy all the same. Out of the first 4 episodes, the first one is definitely the worst, but that's understandable. They really wanted the audience to know what this series was with penguin up front. Although with 10 episodes, I think this series has plenty more comedy highlight potential, and plenty more weird character swaps to laugh at. But what did you think of what you saw? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)

They shouldn't be allowed to hide anymore. They have way too much influence on society to stay hidden. They are the deep state shadow government in Hollywood. SPOTLIGHT the cockroaches. I almost feel sorry for them if THIS is the extent of their imagination. Smh 🙄 🤦 😂 Great camera the picture is so clear.

The themes of Two-Face: Once a man of the law now suffering from two personalities, one good, one evil, both bound to the outcomes of a coin toss. The suffering of repressing one's anger, the feelings of powerlessness to chance, the corruptive path of revenge against the angers and wrongs one has faced. The themes of The Penguin: A man of etiquette and high taste, forever ostracized for his peculiarities and appearance, lashing out at the world who abandoned him. The isolation of eternal exclusion from those one seeks to belong too, the needs to prove yourself against that others deem your failings, the abuse of power to force others to cater to your desires. Two-Face here: An asshole. Penguin here: Some reason adored. I don't expect these characters to meaningfully contribute to the deep introspective storytelling past Batman works did.

@@TheNoobyNoob1I haven’t seen it, but downfall stories usually work best if the audience either does have sympathies for a character or if the downfall hits a villain, where it serves as comeuppance.

@aubreysmith73552 ай бұрын
the show is known for changing the designs and characters every few seasons particularly the villains. This Harvey Dent is all about following the letter of the law. He isn't bad he just seems heartless. But emotions have nothing to do with justice. The 2 faced coin toss shows his view on justice. There was only one result possible the one that goes with the law.. The result wasn't evil it was just the correct ruling. The death penalty was never an option but if it was he would have chosen that as the only option.. if it was the right choice under the law. I m guessing Two Face will be the opposite crime is always the choice no exceptions. No grey area. The Penguin is more like the mom from Goonies was the Penguin. At no point did they claim she was beloved. She was just important and inserted in with rich and famous because she had power. And used it to insert herself with that crowd. No woman calls herself Penguin. She does so to push back against criticism. Like Oswald she is an outsider, a unconventional looking person, who takes up space, makes themselves look bigger than they are.

@@aubreysmith7355 True, she's not "beloved", but the wolf whistling and eager smiles clearly indicate that she is desired - even though that's just ridiculous here. As far as Dent goes, true justice needs to be appropriate to the crime, so the death penalty wouldn't make sense for smuggling bootleg liquor or stolen merchandise. But maybe that's his evil side already coming out in the form of sadism. However, that makes his dichotomy less stark because it's only opposed by blind ambition.

His personal sketches from the time of the original cartoon were where the lesbian overtones between Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn originated and eventually spilled over into canon (to the ruin of both characters), and his fetish for pairing Bruce and Barbara Gordon was even hinted at in one of the original episodes (in a dream sequence). The difference is that Timm was being held in check by other creators and by Standards and Practices at the time, so his weirdness wasn't so obvious.

After 38 years of character assassination, I'm beyond sick of it. And the slathering on of bad liberal identity politics just makes it worse.

@@JahonCross -- Yeah, it's just flat in general. And too slow. Took me three days to get through all 10. Probably peaked with episode two so you didn't miss anything. Wanted to like the Gentleman Ghost (!) show but hated his design. There's also a version of the Nocturna storyline Timm always lamented not doing for B:TAS but can't believe he was happy with what was produced here. A few of weird cameo (a newspaper photographer with a surprising name, a crooked cop, a bookstore owner and some orphans pus a familiar sideshow freak) appearances were nice surprises. Seems the show's concept was framing the series as if the Fleischer Brothers produced a Batman cartoon like they did for Superman but for that "modern audience" [read: woke] the studios keep insisting exists. This would explain why the Fleischer-esque Lois Lane & Jimmy Olsen appear in non-speaking roles along with a lesbian kiss (don't recall any hetero ones). Loved how the Batcave looked like the one in the '40s movie serial and didn't hate Alfred being fat (as in his original comics appearances). But why does Bruce call him Pennyworth and what's with all the hostility? Didn't like that stuff. Did you notice Harvey Dent looked like John Romita's version of Peter Parker? That was just plain weird, as was the insanely lazy Two-Face design -- had no idea what they're trying there. Sadly, the funnest part of the first season was the street names culled from Batman lore (Wilson, Lowery and Dozier were the biggest surprises) and that alone spoke volumes for how weak a show was delivered.

The animation in this show sucks and I think that's a testament to how little faith Warner had in it. It's a crude and superficial attempt at re-creating Batman the Animated Series' art style using limited animation rather than the gorgeous full animation that the original show had. The boxy character designs of the original show were to let the studio animate them at a reasonable budget and keep the designs consistent from one frame to the next. When you those types of character designs (or a bad facsimile of them) and use them in limited animation it looks cheap and crappy, which is what this show is.
@robonator29452 ай бұрын
okay let's start a running list 1 : in the first scene Batman is responsible for several deaths. No, Batman didn't "kill them", but that rule wasn't imposed on him via some mystical curse by John Constantine, it's a self-imposed rule to make sure he never loses himself. If Batman can get away with murder on a technicality, he's not Batman. The point is no-one should die if it's in his power to stop. Note : this is not to say you can't do anything interesting with Batman being more flexible/conflicted morally, but this show does not appear to be intentionally going that route, so it just means they don't understand his character. What a Batman like this (i.e. : not leaning into the moral quandries of vigilantism, he's just a de-facto "good guy" that always does what he should because that's what heros do) would do is *_maybe_* use the boss as a fake-meatshield betting on the goon not wanting to shoot him, and using that as an opening to disarm them, or (more likely) disarming him while grappling the boss without giving them the chance to aim. (then when he was diving from the bomb he'd either pull the other guy out of the way by grabbing him or maybe using his grappling hook, if it's a latching variety in this continuity) 2 : Yes, Harvey Dent's entire point is he's a genuinely good guy. IMO the Telltale game actually handled this brilliantly. Early-game a bunch of criminals attack a political rally by locking everyone inside and filling the room with a gas that makes people tell the truth. As you could guess, the politicians don't have their speeches go too well. However, Harvey Dent continues to give his speech anyway and it's still entirely hopeful and inspiring, proving that those are his genuine beliefs. 3 : While I know some versions of Harvey Dent do lean into the whole double sided coin thing, I tend to lean against it. While conniving villains that decieve people can be good, it just loses a lot of the impact when they don't actually have a code. (for instance in No Country for Old Men one of the most thematically important scenes is when the wife of the main character is confronted the the villain and is told to call a side, and basically says "no, I'm not calling a side, if you're going to kill me it's your choice, I won't let you turn it into a game of chance".) A twist on this that is slightly more useful is if he always technically obeys the coinflip, but doesn't necessarily follow any unspoken expectations. For instance "heads, you live, tails you die. Welp, you got lucky, though I can't have you running away and alerting anyone so I'm still gonna need to break your kneecaps." 4 : Yeah, a train is stupid here. It technically could work just on the basis of pants-shitting-terror (even if they know logically "hey wait, Batman wouldn't kill me!" they probably wouldn't have time to think that through before their fight-or-flight-or-get-hit-by-a-train kicks in) but it's still really stupid. Again, this could work well if we're playing into the whole gritty-vigilantism angle, but it really does not look like that's the intention. 5 : Isn't Gotham in America? 22:10 the steering wheel is in the right of the car here. Bonus : if you want to subvert Harvey Dent's "good guy" character without completely misunderstanding it, have him be a corrupt dickhead specifically to catch criminals. In other words he's not actually a corrupt dickhead, he just puts on a bad face to stop criminals. You'd keep the twisted irony if he becomes a more traditional 2 face, you'd keep the subversion of his golden-boy Harvey Dent characterization *_and_* you'd even get some nice drama with him conceptually mirroring Batman as a good man who puts on a bad face to stop criminals.

Of course spoons must be confiscated. Those things can be dangerous in certain hands. Can't you remember Alan Rickman's scene about merciful beheadings in 'Robin Hood'? 😂

I'd bet the writers chose this larger form Alfred because the original comic design of Alfred looked similar; however, the only reason Alfred the butler was in comics prior his slim appearance was because the 1943 serial created the character but had either not yet casted the actor or the casted actor was not known by comic writers of the era and thus the actual original Alfred is not wider than Batman's cape but the thin one that everyone already knows. Honestly, I didn't even know this show came out and now DC is spouting out praises for it as though they've struck gold. It's not even pyrite; what do you call broken mirror sprinkled with shiny glitter?

You think they did any research? That's not how modern writers work. They just said, "do we make him black, female, gay, trans, or what?" "We've already done all those. How about a focus on body positivity, with a gay reveal later?" "Love it, make it happen."
