Just had to say that if you are a fan of this film, you must pick up this new release even if you have any of the previous versions. The image and sound quality are magnitudes above any and all previous releases, IMHO. From the very first shots, the image just jumps off of the screen and...

RIP Mr. Moll. As with Kevin Conroy and pretty much any of the other characters from the Timm/Dini/Romano/and all of the others behind the glory that was DC animated universe from BTAS to JLU, it will be your voice that I will forever hear whenever I read or watch anything else with Two Face...

I was watching the "The Batman" episode that introduced Robin ("A Matter of Family") last night (with Mr. Conroy voicing Robin's father and Mark Hamill voicing Tony Zucco) and I'd say that Rino Romano did a very good job as Batman. I wonder if he's still open to reprising the role sometime...

"I always roll my eyes over Andrea Romano repeatedly telling the story of him entering the recording booth and her saying "He was Batman!". Romano's recounting of the hiring process sounds like every possible hoary cliche, and actually tells us nothing because we've heard a version of that story...

Indeed the real "problem" with this entire topic is that it is literally impossible to point out too many standout performances from Mr. Conroy. When you really think about it, it is no exaggeration to state that he NEVER had a bad performance, even in the less than stellar episodes of any of...

Good thread to have now certainly to aid with our collective healing process over today's tragic news. It's so hard to pick even just a few of Mr. Conroy's finest moments. Certainly the ones cited above from MotP are amazing. I just rewatched the Blu-Ray with my son earlier today (I think...

Long time member, but infrequent poster here. But I've been with BTAS and the DC animated universe since Day 1...still remember quite vividly watching the premiere (live) of BTAS (at the "tender" age of 26) with my jaw on the floor thinking how they finally got it right! And of course Mr...

Did they show clips from more than one episode? Maybe...again, I don't recall...I think I was just so awestruck being the presence of the folks who I so admired for finally bringing versions of my favorite heroes to the small screen that were finally done right with an appeal to both younger...

I was at the 2001 DCAU panel where they premiered the 1st episode of JL "Secret Origins." I can't remember though if it was just the first few minutes or the whole episode. I think it was the former... I remember Bruce Timm and most (maybe all?) of the main production crew being there. I...

Sad news indeed. I still remember to this day the very first appearance of Ra's al Ghul on BTAS as I watched the original (first) airing of "Off Balance" when he made the brief cameo appearance at the episode's conclusion. When I heard Mr. Warner's voice behind Ra's, I remember recognizing...

FYI to all, I just picked up the premiere set from Best Buy for $79.99. Ordered it online for pickup at my local BB outlet which I will do after work today :) . Also FYI, they list the non-premiere set for pre-order for $89.99. I was actually planning on getting the lesser set as I don't...

Thanks for posting this...I will definitely be attending in my area! The date is actually a holiday for me at work (Veteran's Day) so both me and my son are off of work and school, respectively so we'll both be going :) . FYI, I saw the film around 7-8 times at the theater during its original...

Just pre-ordered MotP from Amazon! Worth every penny and then some to me...can't wait to see it again in Blu-Ray. Sad that there looks to be no extras or a commentary, but has anyone heard anything about the sound? Still hoping for an upgrade to 5.1 surround :), but I know it's not very...

I don't know how he did it...I think it was available On Demand through our DirectTV, but he found and we watched another new episode on Sunday that involved Space Cabbie and Kanjar Ro. I forget the title, but it was there for the watching in the DirectTV On Demand menu. FYI... :) Jon

Wow...this just made my day and then some! I will buy this the second it is released...more than happy to "triple dip" on this one...I bought the VHS tape and the original DVD both on the very day that each was released. Also saw the movie at least 5 or 6 times when it did its all-too-brief and...
