I like this. I really like this. I only wish it was on a format that allow for a seamless transition of the action. Blurays still have to load up

How is that weird? He just made it official.Not a great mini and clearly designed to appease fans after 4 messy years for her but it happened. Basically nothing refected this comic as Batman was RIPed immediately and Black Bat was only in the first half of Batman Inc after his return. Flashpoint decanonized this and Post Rebirth books never reflected this either.
I have to agree with DC on this. This is as weird is him adopting an adult man in Batman Forever. Cass is a great character and Rebirth saved her but this is too weird.
Here is another good DC toon literal nobody knows about. The first good DC toon wasn´t Batman TAS. It was this. TAS and beyond are on another level of course.

Go through DC´s animated catalog after 1988 carefully and one by one Era. There is quality in all sorts of places one would be surprised by. The Batman, for example, had a huge jump in narrative quality in S4 and 5 and Tiny Toon Adventures (1990) had all sorts of cool DC related stuff:

About Tim in Batman TAS. He is basically Jason. Even his backstory is Jason´s with Croc being changed into Two-Face. Not a bad take on a 2nd Robin but a convoluted one. Even before be became Neo Joker for a movie.

I imagine he's just harder to integrate if you're doing continuity between films. Dick is the first, Todd has the tragedy, Damien is the newest. Tim doesn't have an iconic Bat-story to adapt either.
It would be nice to see more of him, Babs, Cassandra, and Stephanie, though.
I actually think Dick had it first or something. But Tim made it his imo.
Tim is just too normalI guess. For the longest time he had no dead parents or tragic backstory. Such a shame too. I'd love an all Robins movie or book with them just hanging out.
Babs is highly used. The problem with Tim is indeed that his origin is connected to other Robins in a way none of the others are. He is also "the good Robin". He never wanted to stop! Not much drama here. Something even the comics have stuggled with after we got Damian. The other 3 are of course drama central with iconic stories that are purely their own. Something Tim lacks. Tim is now on Young Justice so there is that. Dito for Spoilers and Jason was in S3 for real. Clear set up for S4.

Obeah Man (New Earth)
The Obeah Man was a mighty Haitian criminal and alleged black magician ("obeah" is a voodoo word meaning, approximately, "black magic") who kidnapped the parents of Tim Drake and demanded a ransom from Drake Industries for the couple's safe return. He brutally murdered one of the Drake's friends...

I refuse to watch Killing Joke. And I'll do the same when they do those two.
I hope that having sex with Talia is one of the options:
Punish him! From Red Hood: The Lost Days by modern Red Hood creator Judd Winick. She also had sex with Bane. These are canon facts and we need to face them, true believers! For real though. He had a weird relationship with the women in his life before 2011. And after but things got less insane. I´ll admit that. Jason is the least fuckale Robin. Easily.

The producer of these is now in charge of the next set of movies in the DTV line starting with Superman: Man of Tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing what Butch brings to the table!
Yep. Tim needs more love as he is responsible for making Robin badass. But to be fair Jason was Red Robin before Tim.
Personally I think it already bit them in their ass. They already weakened their brand significantly. Which is why the phrase "Batman sells" always pops up when something non-Batman doesn't get as much attention.
DCAU-Era, is any place in the world getting a steelbook of this movie? Release is only a few weeks away, and not target or zavvi seems to have one listed.
I think this is the first Batman animated movie in a long time that didn't have a steelbook release. Not a good sign, wb.

I got it in the mail today, so far I've seen 5 or 6 endings, and it's a meatier package than I thought.
Some of it re-uses scenes with some touch-ups and some of the segments are just stills with a voice over. But been watching for just about an hour or so with the various choices.
Some fun cameos as well depending on the path you take.

It's fun with Black Mask.
Just went down the "main" path which is pretty much just a recap of Under the Red Hood.
I think it's compelling that....
For the most part, he doesn't turn out well no matter what happens. It seems like he really is driven by revenge and only once he comes face to face with that can he change.
Hey if anyone is thinking of renting this digitally definitely don't, there's no choose your own adventure element at all on the rental. Big bummer.
I was curious about that. I bought the blu ray and watched all the choices and thought about how the digital was going to handle this. So what actually happens if you view the digital?
You get three set paths I believe... But it's not every digital store, it's strange
They were upfront with that from the get go though
Why I got the physical disc
Well, I watched all of the endings, and marveled at the way WB tried to save a few bucks by avoiding 95% of voice acting from the scenes of Under the Red Hood. Id be lying if i said that I didn't make enjoy some of the endings, but the vast majority was IMHO, throwing shit against the walls and seeing what stuck.
We should have known something was up when this didn't get a steelbook release. Part of me Hope seems they cancel the Long Halloween adaption. Who knows how they can ruin that too?
