Batman: Gotham Knight

With all the attention TDK is getting fans may have not notice this upcoming project:

Batman: Gotham Knight is an animated direct-to-DVD anthology film of six animated short films set in-between Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. Directed by Bruce Timm, co-creator and producer of Batman: The Animated Series.

Look forward to it this summer. 😊

Oh yeah, AniBatman. 😛

I tried watching the Animatrix when it came out, and I couldnt really get into it, I hope that isnt the case here.

I look forward to this. I'm buying at least two dvds

Does that mean that they're not all on the same DVD, or are you saying you'll be buying two copies of the same DVD?

Yes I am saying that I'm buying two copies

This should be good. Supposedly the movie is divided into several segments, each with its own art style. Hopefully they're not all different versions of the cheap anime crap we get so often on TV.

Yeh there are meant to be 6 segments each drawn in a different art style. supposedly to reflect the way the comics are. this should be awesome!!

also bale is rumoured to be doing the voice of batman for the whole lot

some of the best people in the anime biz are working on it with Bruce Timm directing. Count me as one that's excited.

Oh man. This DVD may be worth buying.

I'll be looking out for it. I love in-stories.

May I ask why that's necessary?

Just wondering.

There maybe two editions a regular and a limited edition...or...there maybe a recall like the one that happen with first BB comic book dvd. Which later became a collector's rarity.

Or...just for the heck of it. 😉

LOL! Exactly which? Is there a special edition disc?

I guess I could look this stuff up for myself.

Devil King what I mean is when Batman: Gotham knights comes out in a few months I am going to buy two copies at least. I'm not sure but there may be a special or limited edition version with more stuff on it in which case that'll be a version I'm buying. If its just a regular standard dvd thats fine I'll still buy two copies and put one in storage just in case it becomes a collector's item.

Good idea!

what kind of story lines will be going on in this?

Could be good.

But I know at least one of the six stories is an anime.

Anime+Batman= something that shouldn't happen under any circumstances.

I really don't understand why people have this "It should never happen" feeling towards Anime Batman... What, are the Japanese not allowed to use the character in a art style they are used to? WE were allowed to butcher Transformers (and we're about to with DBZ), so I think whatever the people in charge are doing will be better and a LOT more respectful towards the character than ANYTHING made by Americans (example: Puroresu > WWE)...

What you just said was honestly ridiculous. It is not a matter of what people are allowed to do, it is a matter of what people should do. And in my opinion, nobody should mix anime and Batman simply because I believe the character, plot, and tone wouldn't translate well at all into the anime style.

Also your logic makes no sense. Because, in your opinion, we butchered the Transformers franchise, that means that they will be make this Batman installment better than "ANYTHING" made by Americans? Umm, right.
