    The Animated Series was obviously the best, but I got into Beyond a lot too. It was unique. I haven't seen much of The Batman, but it's been horribly unimpressive.

    I really liked Batman Beyond and Batman: The Animated Series. I haven't seen The Batman, though.

    One thing Batman Beyond has going for it is that it's basically a conitinuation of Batman: The Animated Series. Most of the voices are the same and the timeline is the same. The Batman tried to redo it from the beginning, and it's like, why try to redo it? It was done so damn well the first time.

    The opposite goes for Batman Begins. The original Batman movie series started off well but fell into the toilet quickly. So Batman Begins tried to start fresh and not make the same mistakes and it succeeded. I hope they don't do a Joker movie for this Batman because the first one was so good. They can redo Twoface though.

    you should have an option of "I can't remember !"

    cause thats how i feel at this moment ... haven't there been like 5 different versions of batman cartoons ?
    Chuck Noblet: Can anyone tell me the tragic irony of the Trojan War? Tina? Tina: Um, that horses are friendly creatures yet a hollow, wooden one was used to destroy Troy? Chuck Noblet: Wrong and no. Anyone else? Chip? Chip: That the mighty warrior Achilles was killed by a small cut to his ankle. Chuck Noblet: Chip is wronger. OK, here it is. The tragic irony of the Trojan War is that though it was fought over Helen, who was young and beautiful, by the time they rescued her ten years later, she was old and ugly. Tina: But wasn't recovering the king's wife reward enough for the Greeks? Chuck Noblet: Tina, an ugly woman is never a reward.

    I don't think it'sso much a problem of trying to redo it from the beginning as it is that The Batman just blows. Let's face it, if it were intelligently written and really represented the characters well, I don't think anyone would mind it one bit. I liked Batman TAS and Batman Beyond, but The Batman can go ahead and be cancelled for all I care.

    Also, it would seem you haven't kept up with the Batman Begins movie news. Heath Ledger is set to play the Joker in the next one. I'm not sure how I feel about him playing the role, but since I don't care for Jack Nicholsons portrayal myself I'm glad to see them take another crack at this character.

    The Animated Series is easily the best Batman cartoon. I also enjoyed Beyond greatly. I haven't seen much of The Batman but it's been quite underwhelming.

    Okay, who voted for the batman?

    Anyway, batman beyond is far superior with great characters. I just enjoy the overall mood and music of it.
