Batman: The Animated Series and Batman Beyond are AMAZING.
They are animation masterpieces.

Nah fam. I like The Batman but it's nowhere close to being as good as Batman: TAS.I maybe the minority but I prefer The Batman over BTAM
I remember watching the sneak-peak of Batman:TAS premiere on Sunday, never seen anything like it as the music (Shirley Walker RIP), story, and Kevin Conroy drew me in until this very day. As I often have said to my friends and people on message boards, the last scene with the Ferries in TDK felt like a live-action conversion of something Hamill's Joker would do...right down to the deranged dogs.
Hardac, Dr. Freeze, Penguin, Croc, Clayface, Two-Face, Poison Ivy, Scarecrow, Joker, Man-Bat, R'as Ghul, Talia, were evil sure, but it wasn't as black and white as we often got their backstories on how they came to be. Batman:TAS didn't have a magic reset button and the characters had to live with their consequences of their actions, even Batman which is what made the show a rich tapestry of action, drama, and suspense.

This show aged real gracefully.
I still watch from time to time.
This show is what kick started the Bruce Timm animated universe.
Oh yeah did I forget to mention that it was superior to X-men the animated series.:hhhtroll:

X-Men was cool, and I was an X-Men/Marvel stan but as an adult I can admit TAS was always better on every level. Animation wise it's not contest. Episode wise there are way more standout TAS episodes than X-Men. I'm not shytting on X-Men, it was cool. But TAS is probably the GOAT.
Marvel got the movies but they can't fukk with D.C. when it comes to animation and that's a fact

Hail the victors
Yall gonna make me rewatch the series
It was a great show because it took kids seriously. It didnt shy away from heavy themes like mental illness, death, fear, domestic violence etc. Bruce Timm and Paul Dini are like the 90s version of Stan Lee and Jack King Kirby.

theres no thread on Superman TAS but I had a random thought about how weird it was that Zod never made an appearance on that show
I think they wanted to keep the tones of the Donner films and DCAU separated. Having Zod in there would make most people at the time think of Reeves/Stamp since it was only 15-16 years earlier.
Killer Croc: there I was holed up in this quarry when Batman came nosing around, he was getting closer & closer..
Poison Ivy: and...,.?
Killer Croc:I threw a rock at him
