Kevin Conroy is Batman. So great! Also need to watch some JLU.
I could squeeze you until you popped like warm champagne, and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Has anyone seen the WW movie? Is it good?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
ita, I saw it at WonderCon, and I liked it. I knew next to nothing about Wonder Woman, and it made me want to know more.
And Clancy Brown will always and forever be Lex Luthor to me.
Yeah, he's pretty great.
I finished B:TAS last year, and now I'm watching S:TAS, and then I'm watching Batman Beyond, and then I'll watch JL and JLU. I'm excited to get to those, since I've heard such great things about them.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

It's a by-the-numbers Wonder Woman origin story. It's not bad, but nothing really stands out about it either.

I enjoyed WW.
Batman Beyond
We loved it! Cutie Terry McGinness (sp?) and old man Wayne!

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I have to admit, Kevin Conroy is more Batman to me than Christian Bale is. If only they could have had his voice dubbed over for the last movie...
Or at the very least have him give Bale some lessons on how to make Batman and Bruce Wayne sound like different people without making the audience laugh/cringe/rub at their throats.
I have to wonder if concession soda sales were up during showings of the Dark Knight. If they offered Halls, they might have made a killing.

There were a lot of decapitations.

I'll watch JL and JLU. I'm excited to get to those, since I've heard such great things about them.
It might be a silly little thing, but I love the opening credits and the music that plays over the opening.

The S:TAS opening credits and music are nothing compared to the B:TAS opening credits and music.

Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I think the opening credits for B: TAS and S: TAS both do a good job of setting the mood for their respective shows. The Superman music, while not quite as evocative as the original Superman theme from the movies, still comes across very well, IMO.
The problem is Batman is just cooler than Superman.
Side note, did you watch "Mask of the Phantasm" during your B:TAS viewing, P-C? If not, you really should. It's excellent. The other two Batman animated movies, Sub-Zero and Mystery of the Batwoman are easily skippable (Which is sad for the former because they did such a good job with Mr. Freeze in the series itself) though not necessarily bad.
