Deathstroke is originally actually Batman Villain but Batman refuses to fight him with all he's got and still manages to defeat him everytime so Death stroke goes after his allies and Robins in hope Batman would go all out against him in a fight, but he still never does as there's a storyline in which Bruce Wayne has said not to go all out against him and let him live in shame instead by getting defeated by someone who didn't even use quarter of his strength, it was when for betraying league of shadows or league of Assassins when Bruce Wayne was training and defended Ra's Al Ghul and yes in some of the Stories he already knows Bruce Wayne is Batman or else he could have gone after Bruce Wayne directly. But he respects how despite knowing these two are one he still get outsmarted and confused that these two are different people deep down he still he beloved these two are different people despite knowing it all and because of thier personas.

Batman should never stay alone because you remove such core aspects of his character like Robin, who's so important that he was created a year after Batman was. And that's not to speak of absolutely phenomenal characters like Jason Todd and Cassandra Cain, who are genuinely some of the best things to come out of Batman comics.

Glad to see you guys enjoyed this one. As far as I know, this was the first time the character of Damian Wayne was used in a medium other than the comics. It was also my first time seeing, or rather hearing, Jason O’Mara as Batman/ Bruce Wayne. Not sure how long he would go on to play the character, but he did it very well. In my opinion, the second best voice actor of Batman behind Kevin Conroy. Looking forward to seeing your reactions to the next few Batman animated movies in this universe. Which, minor spoilers, is called “Batman vs Robin”. That one will lead to the next one, which I believe is called “Batman: Bad Blood.” Again looking forward to seeing your reactions to them as well. Also, totally forgot about the whole Talia date r*ping of Batman thing. I agree that it was kinda weird that Bruce was kinda into it. Either way, it was a pretty good film.

Whilst many will argue that Batman has had plenty of sons, technically, Tim Drake still had his family (not counting the Jason-esque Tim from Batman TAS and the DCAU), and his relationship with Batman was more of an apprentice and mentor. Bruce did, however, practically raise Dick Grayson and Jason Todd. They may not be his blood, but everyone knows that Dick is essentially Bruce's first born and his greatest source of pride, Jason is the troubled child that Bruce did his best to raise right and loved dearly, despite everything that has happened between them. That said, it was clear that Damian had a special place in the hearts of Alfred and Bruce, as Alfred said very clearly that he was the spitting image of Bruce at that age. He is essentially a mirror of what Bruce could have become if he embraced lethal violence as a means to an end. He might have come late to the family and many fans may not like him all that much, but his impact on Batman and the others was profound enough to shape them all into a tighter family.

while there are many Robin's and everyone has their favorite, to me there should really only be 3. Dick, Jason, and Damian.

So glad you both enjoyed this one! To address your point: Yes, Talia did in fact date r*pe Batman in an earlier non-canon story, which Grant Morrison then adapted to main comics canon for the conception of Damian. This movie and the subsequent movie Batman: Bad Blood are both based on Morrison's 7 year tenure writing Batsy. Here's still the checklist so far, although I'm sure your Patreons are also keeping you on track: Flashpoint Paradox ✅ Justice League: War ✅ Son of Batman ✅ Justice League: Throne of Atlantis Nightwing and Robin (short film set between Throne of Atlantis and Batman vs Robin) Batman vs Robin Batman: Bad Blood Justice League vs Teen Titans Justice League Dark Teen Titans: The Judas Contract Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay The Death of Superman Constantine: City of Demons Reign of the Supermen Batman: Hush Wonder Woman: Bloodlines Justice League Dark: Apokolips War Constantine: The House of Mystery tbd after that...

Third is Tim Drake the red robin. Then we have Stephanie Brown who was Robin and Batgirl both lasted a short period of time. Now we have Damian 16:14 In the DC Universe, the Lazarus Pit is a healthcare plan and proprietary bubble bath that originated with the al Ghul family. It was discovered by Ra's al Ghul, the leader of the League of Assassins and a former physician who wanted to defeat death. The substance in the pit has the ability to rejuvenate the sick and injured, and even resurrect the dead. It can also decrease the user's age depending on how long they remain submerged. However, the pit is usually only usable once, and it's unlikely to work on someone who isn't dead or nearly dead. In fact, it will almost certainly kill someone who isn't dead or nearly dead.

Definitely agree with you guys on the movie being better than you expected. JL War was a rough start to the DCAMU for me and I remember being pleasantly surprised by the quality of this one. It made me want to continue watching the DCAMU. The DCAMU had its ups and downs but the Batman trilogy is one of the better stories it offered. You'll probably be watching the cinematic universe in release order so you'll get to those eventually. Apart from the Batman centric movies, JL Dark, Suicide Squad Hell to Pay, Death of Superman are pretty good too. If youre ever itching for an older style of animation and storytelling, you can try Wonder Woman (2009) or Justice League Crisis on Two Earths (2010). If you go even further back there is the much acclaimed Batman Mask of the Phantasm (1993). Now this is tied to Batman the Animated Series but it is worth watching as a standalone experience. Just dont expect modern choreography and witty one liners from the characters. It has that classic Bruce Timm film noir aesthetic and the story is powerful.

In a episode of a Batman cartoon called the Batman Dr. Kurt Langstrom (the man whos family deathstroke kidnaps) actually works for Bruce Wayne and becomes man-bat himself.

9:08 I think that's God Tiger or something. I think Michael Jai White played him in the Arrow show. Don't remember which season. A black martial artist using iron claws as a weapon.

They did show the Lazarus pit on the live action tv show Titans, the 4th season I believe. I think you guys should definitely watch that while you're on your "DC" phase.

I think it was also in one of the later seasons of the Gotham tv series.

James Gunns DCU Batman Movie will have Damien Wayne as robin, based on Brave and Bold comic storyline loosely.. I hope to finally witness something like this but different enough in live action..
@thestingman29666 ай бұрын
As far as I know, they’re using the title of Brave and Bold, which has always been associated with Batman, but is not based on any storyline from a Brave and the Bold comic.

Damian is the 4th male Robin typically. The first is Dick who created the mantle and moved on to Nightwing. The second is Jason Todd and the 3rd is Tim Drake. In this continuity, however, they skipped over the 2nd and third robins. Before you ask there are female robins with different levels of continuity. Stephanie Brown typically goes by the name "spoiler" and Kerri Kelly tends to stay inside of the Dark Knight Returns continuity, a darker take on the Batman story. Damian according to James Gunn will be the next Robin in the Live action DCU.

Yes! Please keep going with these. I think you’ll like Justice League Dark and Constantine. The first has a good amount of Batman and the other well… Constantine my favorite DC character. Enjoy!!
@lamborghinimercy57378 ай бұрын
Constantine is definitely one of the best characters in these movies. He takes over any scene he’s in.

There’s a short film called Nightwing and Robin before Batman vs Robin if you’re curious.

Funny thing: Nightwing and Damians first meeting was way different in the comics. That’s why I found his reactions to him so funny in this movie 😂

This is definitely one of DC's Best Movies in their "New 52" Animated Collection!👍Morena Baccarin is a Perfect Voice for Talia Al Ghul, it's a shame She never got to play Her in Live-Action too!😍Stuart Allen steals every Scene with His Voicing as Damian Wayne, and You'll really "Hear" this Kid grow-up over time...👌

If you’re watching animated Batman movies, you might want to watch “Batman vs Two-Face” and “Batman the Return of the Cape Crusaders”. It has Burt Ward and Adam West reprising their roles. Since I grew up watching the tv series, I really enjoyed them. They have the same tone as the tv series.

on batman heirs in the comics he only got 2 blood related children which varies since 1 is in main continuity the other is mostly in alternate universes. main continuity is damian wayne as you see here, the other is helena wayne which her mother is selena kyle/catwoman. in those other earths if say focus on new 52 earth-2 story she starts off as robin, got warped to main earth and went under guise of huntress. wehen she went back to her earth and time went on she took on the title of batman. note i said batman, not batwoman. she maintain that name so ppl think its the original and she have a voice modulator. in that earth later her robin is dick grayson (aka first robin then nightwin) son.

Can't wait for you guys to watch Batman vs Robin. It's my favorite in the universe and i personally think it's the best one too. Also Damian has been my favorite Robin since this movie released. Love his attitude.
@joecrazy98968 ай бұрын
Damien would be the 4th(canon) Robin. Before him would be Tim Drake, who became Red Robin, and before him would be Jason Todd, who took up the Red Hood name.

Hot take: This was one of the movies that made me go "Oh no" for this universe of movies. Court of Owls is such a good story, and I am surprised they would Frankenstein it into what this movie became.
