Like the sad, sad person I am, I have spent the last week watching CHILDREN'S CARTOONS on my laptop. OK, I hope it's sort of cool that I've been watching them seeing as it's 'The Batman' and after some research I found that fully grown men watch it too, creepy fully grown men but still.
I'm not really sure what age it's starts getting weird to do so, but i hope 16 is cool, when December 6th rolls around and I reach the big 1 7, I will banish all thoughts of them from my mind....or ask for the box sets for my birthday, i haven't decided yet.
The stories are pretty cool, if not a bit far fetched. But come on, this is a kids show. Who says that The Joker wouldn't be able to construct a giant gum ball machine in less than a day with only two henchmen's help? Also, the fact that 'Batgirl' and 'Robin' roll around at sires 3 and 5 don't help matters as all I can think is that Batman is a terrible pedophile that makes his prey fight crime with him and get beaten up before taking them home and molesting them! Serious, there still in school for Christ sake! THEY HAVE TO MAKE EXCUSES TO BUNK OFF SCHOOL TO FIGHT CRIME, HOW IS THAT OK?! They're also pretty awful at it and probably make more mess than be helpful, if Batman just got fully grown adults to help him it would be far simpler! But then how would you get girls to watch the show unless there was a character to relate to? ugh, please! They have Harley Quinn, don't they....oh wait....
K, I really didn't mean this to turn into a rant about what little turds Batgirl and Robin are (they make bad puns for heavens sake) but really about how awesome I think the rest of the show is.
The Joker is pretty much the best thing about it! He is voiced by this awesome guy called Kevin Michael Richardson who has a badass evil black guys voice (and also voiced a transformer in the film lol wtf? thats pretty sweet). He's pretty much the typical Joker, being hilarious and having ridiculous plots to do stuff that doesn't really make sense but has some sort of comic theme. Most of the time he doesn't really seem to know why he's doing it, it's just to like....piss off Batman? i don't even know anymore.
lol @ the fact the that that this picture was on a website saying how awful they thought this joker was! idgaf he has dreads and bare feet, he's awesome imo!
k. nightmare fule if i ever saw it. at least i didn't post vampire joker......
oh wait......
Batman in this is pretty cool too, although Bruce Wayne is ugly as sin and I wont post a picture as he makes me sick in comparison to the sexy senor Bale. He has sweet ass gadgets and stuff and he also has a 'putting on the bat suit' montage every. episode. Sadly Alfred is awful too, or maybe my mind has been tainted by the amazing Michael Caine and nothing else will do him justice. He just seems like a massive, useless prick in this version.
Wait, why's he in a hot air ballon? And why can Batman fly? i have no idea, i'm pretty sure this isn't in an episode, i hope this isn't some fanart i've dug up...oh well, it seems legit.
LOL @ The Joker's weird brown leather waist coat thing he had in the 1st series! i don't know why they changed it.....
see what i mean about the little kids being annoying, and how inappropriate they look standing next to a fully grown man? Also, if you heard Robin's voice it would make suicide seem like a more pleasant option than continue listening to the little brat!
Any who, I've disturbingly started to like this Joker over Heath ledger's Joker which is freaking me out a bit. Maybe its just because i've been watching this for a week straight and haven't seen the film in over a month or maybe it's because the cartoon is so ludicrous and funny compared to the dark and slightly depressing film that it makes you enjoy it more, also Heath's death brings down the film a bit too :/
IDK, i know i'll be whoring it over the film the next time i watch it so its swings and roundabout really.....did i just use that saying correctly? IDK.
And just for lol's here The Joker dying in the most disturbing way known to cartoondom at 4:00. Note sad Bats at the end...aw:
