How many of you guys have seen these movies? It's been awhile for me since I've seen them, but I remember both of them being really good.
I was actually surprised that it wasn't a little more popular or discussed upon its release. The graphic novel is fantastic.
They're probably my two favorite animated superhero features.

They were good. I hope more fan favorite GN get turned into a animated movie. Would love to see The Long Halloween get adapted! |

I'm generally not a fan of these straight graphic novel adaptations, but this one was well done. I liked the 80s style and music.

They're respectable adaptations of the source material, which is more than can be said for TKJ.

I own them both on DVD. An excellent adaptation of the graphic novel. |

I have it on BR as a one-movie-cut, and that is how it is to be seen.
It's the best superhero story next to Watchmen, the animation is a bit crude but thus in line with the comic book source material. They made only very minor tweaks such as nicotine gums instead of cigars, unnecessary but not a deal breaker. I think it is on par with the top serious CBM contenders like Logan, WW, TDK, Dredd and such.

I have it in that deluxe edition, but yeah..... it's good, I think my only gripe is the voice for the joker.... idk doesn't work for me that much.

I loved it. It's two of my favorite animated Batman films aside from Batman: Mask of the Phantasm and Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker.

They were both pretty good, the second one more so. They're not my favourite though.
I still think Under the Red Hood was the best one they've made of the animated ones.

He might be the next best thing to Kevin Conroy as far as voice acting is concerned. It's always a little jarring when animated Batman's voice isn't Conroy (same with Hamill and Joker), but Weller was indeed pretty good. Also tied in with the 80s-ness with thoughts of RoboCop. |
