Batman Gotham Knight [Blu-ray]

Batman: Gotham Knight is a neat collection of six short animated films. It is much like The Animatrix which was a series of short films done for the matrix. Each short has it's own artistic style and writing but the voice of batman is the same throughout and is voiced by Kevin Conroy. Overall I liked Batman Gotham Knight it is defiantly worth renting and watching.

Ordering and receiving this Blu-Ray movies was very easy and came when they said it would. So for that part, this purchase was great. The movie itself wasn't as good as it should have been, but that has nothing to do with those who delivered it.

This Anime spin goes from ok to awesome depending on the episode. I for one do not like the feminine male Bruce Wayne in one of the episode. What we need is a feature length about 90 minutes drawing from the roots of Batman the Animated series from 1992-1995.

I like the no holds bar approach of the Japanese not being afraid to show bad guys getting whacked but Batman should never be seen killing anyone directly. The ridiculous blood splatter and flashing fight scenes need to be toned down because this is still a deeply rooted America hero, what I am saying is do not completely erase that American feel.

Over all I like the anime idea; still some episodes were a waste of time some were awesome, all anime in its violence and conceited character images not much of an American feel other than the great Kevin Conroy.

I have seen bettter and I expected better. The concept was good, but the first story was done already. The animation in one made him look to young. A problem I have with anime all the characters look like teenagers even the characters who you know are or should be older. Some of the animation looks as if a child did it. I know it is a matter of taste it just wasn't mine. Anyway I could say more but my overall suggestion, save your money, wait for it to come on the Cartoon Network or WB. Just my opinion....8]

this is not you ordinary kid batman show if your planning on getting this for child dont it has blood, very mild swearing and killing made for adults and to be watched with responsible parents - if the parent where to get this for a child & what i mean by responsible parents should whatch this with there kids all the way through to teh end if they where to get this for a child adult situation stuff is in his movie not pg13 stuff rated R stuff


i was just looking around bestbuy until i saw speacil version of this 2 disk set tin case edition i like special edition dvds even if they are tin case versions i would have bought it record theater as plan but since it was a bestbuy special edition i got it there sorry record theeater.

one thing that really impressed me about this dvd was Kevin Conroy playing batman/bruce wayne which whoever is fan of batman animated series is he was in batman animated series, justice league, batman beyond, some appearnces in superman animated series, and (static shock animated series- which by the way im still waiting on the release of the aniamted series complete box set of the show itself if it happens & the zeta project).

anyway its great everything expected and more and of course i would expect to see the batman dark knight costumes in differnt vareyations to differnt forms depending on the artist but what i liked the most was the batman costume in the crossfire episode, & the art style in the basic traning episode glad in some episodes they showed the batmobile in some episodes which was great by the way.

i liked most of all if they where was a batman 3 some of the ideas could possibly make it in the third film like the batmobile upgraded look somewhat longer sleeker batwings on the backside of the car and deadshot if he was to be introduced into the batman film his costuem could be simaler to what he wore in this dvd.

one thing i noticed at the end of the movie was how some of teh episodes where tied in togeather when batman left holding guns in his arms & then the deadshot episode they showed why batman was digging for teh guns and holing them at the end which was great by the way all i could think of that batman was didgin for the guns where he didnt want nobody to find them & use but the deashot episode surprised me when bruce wayne explained why he took them in the first place.
