BATMAN R.I.P. MOTION COMIC MOVIE

[@therussiancomicbookgeek]

I love how there’s a bit Adam West in this Batman performance

[@myconiusmaximus1022]

Batman R.I.P. is one of my favorite Batman stories. I must say that aside from a few minor criticisms, that you did a wonderful job. i really love how you also included Batman issue #701 after R.I.P. concluded. for anyone confused on the plot, way before the events of Batman R.I.P. even begin.... Back when Dick Grayson was still Robin, Batman had taken part in a Government isolation experiment. Batman's plan was to simulate insanity, so that he could to try to better understand the mind of the Joker. Dr Simon Hurt was in charge of the experiment. Hurt also had 3 police officer recruits training to become Batman so that they could take over in case the real Batman ever died. The experiment was a failure, and all 3 officers went insane. Batman himself was having blackouts after the experiments. We later found out that while Batman was under hypnosis, that Dr Hurt had planted a hypnotic trigger in Batman’s mind, so that he could shut off Bruce from being Batman any time that he wanted. Flash forward years later when Tim Drake is Robin, Bruce travels to Nanda Parbat to undergo the Thogal Ritual. While performing Thogal, Bruce begins having visions. He starts sensing something’s wrong in the back of his mind, but isn’t exactly aware of the hypnotic trigger. Bruce then creates a back-up personality like a trauma victim would, in case his mind ever comes under attack. (The Batman of Zur-En-Arrh) Grant Morrison’s Batman run begins with issue #655. One of the three Police officers that went insane training to become Batman, shoots the Joker in the face. Joker ends up in rehab, and believes that it was actually Batman that shot him in the face. Talia Al Ghul surprises Batman with their illegitimate child that she had in secret. Bruce Wayne meets Jezebel Jet in Batman issue #656. The two start seeing each other more in issue #664. Jezebel discovers that Bruce is Batman in issue #675. Now with all the pieces in place, Dr Simon Hurt has returned to Gotham to make his move against Batman.

It’s good to see these plot points explained, I’ve had Batman R.I.P. in my little collection for some years now, but I don’t have any other comics directly connected to it, so thank you!😁

@@myconiusmaximus1022 hi I am curious I have the Batman and Son TPB from 2009 that collects Batman #655-#663 loved Andy Kubert on art just curious what is the ultimate story of #663 ? The most I got out of it was that joker every few years reinvents himself to keep batman on his toes and Joker is trying to kill his henchmen and underbosses including Harley to sever all ties to his past life ? Am I pretty accurate?

[@evanlancer5793]

Why does DC not offer this kind of experience with there own content.. the camera moving is perfect with story telling,perfect mix of read,listen and watch with these sound effects and voice acting, spot on..Great work.. only if there was more like this. So many great stories out there good art and the crap on TV today, this is great work,very enjoyable. Thank you

That was fun to listen to. Only parts I didnt like are the parts with a hand held camera.

[@BlicknForty]

This is extremely dope jus keep da camera a bit more steady

[@realgregpumpo]

Agree

[@michaelr.grimmer6660]

Agree. I wasn’t even high yet and it felt like a bad trip😂 but I love the voice work. Both my son and I are interested in learning more about voice acting work. And I do love comic books! What you are doing here is very exciting, I love hearing the comics instead of reading so I can multitask.

[@therussiancomicbookgeek]

@michaelr.grimmer6660 it was meant to feel like a bad trip

[@sandwichsquad74]

I think that’s the eerie distorted look he was going for to further set the ambiance for Batman’s gritty, dark, and sinister stories. I like it, I think it’s appropriate. The reason I love Batman is cus he’s dark and his villains and stories are equally as dark.

[@thxchucky]

​@@sandwichsquad74AND CUZ HES THE BEST SUPERHERO PERIOD

[@myconiusmaximus1022]

at 1:43:17 it should be young Bruce Wayne saying “What?” Bruce didn’t understand that his father had said “. . . Zorro in Arkham”. Bruce misheard his father’s last words spoken to him as “Zur-En-Arrh”.

[@wrestlingpurist9784]

Holy smokes! Who could have noticed that?

[@celstudioscomics2003]

Epic voiceover. The Batman is spot on. I was like “is that Kevin Conroy?!!!”

[@realgregpumpo]

For real! Dude needs hired!

[@neurohack9038]

He’s way better than Conroy. I love the voice actor. Much more believable

[@whateverwhatever4476]

@@neurohack9038naw, he ain't better then Conroy but he's definitely inspired by him

[@neurohack9038]

@@Moth_Dust Conroy only sounded like Batman during the animated series. After that every time you hear Batman speak you think “Kevin Conroy” not “Bruce Wayne/Batman.” It takes away from the character. This voice actor plays it waaaaay better and is much more believable.

[@TheFounderUtopia]

​@@neurohack9038 That seems to be a common problem with great voice actors who have breakout performances. Like David Hayter, in the first Metal Gear Solid his performance was amazing, but every game he did since then he sounds like he's trying to do an exaggerated imitation of his previous role. They get insecure, I think, and try to so perfectly recapture their break out performance that they end up just doing a bad impression of themselves. Conroy was always amazing, but I agree that his later performances as Batman lost some of the subtle nuances of his original Batman TAS role. Where he used to have very different voices for Bruce and Batman (a dynamic he actually pioneered and has been copied ever since) eventually they all just started to sound the same. But even at his worst, Conroy was an absolute legend.

[@RecluseBootsy]

After this, Court of Owls, and Death in the Family. I absolutely need y'all to cover Joker War and the 3 Joker arc in general. I would sing your praises til the end of time.

[@justinspence3290]

This was beyond incredible. A surreal emotional journey that you managed to really being out with your next level storytelling. *slow clap, stunned by what I just witnessed*

[@gdt19871]

The "Careless Whisper" song inclusion caught me off guard, and I loved it!

[@skivvy3565]

Excellent use of Danse Macabre as the intro music, it’s so fitting since the black glove announces they’re doing their own rendition of a dance of death

[@trab33zzy]

The fact that joker can’t live without Batman for certain reasons is beyond me but that man just said “ I don’t know weather to laugh or cry “

[@samuelmajer2191]

He’s no mark hamill, but a damn fine Joker voice no doubt.

[@therussiancomicbookgeek]

Check out our death of the family adaptation it the same actor and he really gets room to make the role his own. Adam McLaughlin is a treasure

[@badabing9234]

[@weeaboobaguette3943]

Not a fan of when the screen was filmed. It did enhance some of the scenes, but it was mostly worse than not. I approuve dropping it in your latest videos. I wonder why these types of videos aren't made by companies themselves. Maybe they fear comparison to the work of a lone talented guy.

[@dalenlewin]

I think this is still your best work. The performances here are absolutely chilling. It's true, your style gets better as time goes on, but for some reason, this one is still your best.

[@jplatt812]

Thank you for doing what you do. I appreciate the escape from the daily, comic-like World we are living in.

[@dylanmonstrum1538]

So even when Batman is hypnoyized, drugged, has all his memories stolen AND, at rhe same time literally loses his mind and becomes insane (well, more insane), he still becomes The Batman. More proof that Bruce is the alter ego and Batman is the real person.
