Five things you would change about "The Batman"

[Hellstormer]

1) Ditch the campy theme song
2) Send Batgirl Away
3) Have guest stars (The Demon, The Question, Deadman ect)
4) Maybe Riddler look normal
5) Bring in the Boy Wonder

What about you?

[Silver Sable]

1) Keep the character's normal designs
2) Keep the character's normal origins
3) Bring in Robin in season 2
4) Bring in Batgirl season 3
5) Get rid of Ellen Yin

[rigel7soldiers]

1. Save Freeze until 3rd season, make character sympathetic
2. Make the Joker more... Jokery than he is on the show.
3. Maybe make original villains who don't suck. I'm looking at you, Toymaker.
4. Harvey Dent should be around somewhere
5. Change Temblor's name.

[MLX]

5) Get rid of Ellen Yin

Yin is gone

1. Less Joker and Penguin
2. Return Bane
3. Get rid of Batgirl
4. Make Mr. Freeze back to a scientist instead of a crook
5. More obsure villains

[Ultimate_Superman]

I would just make it more darker so you could have more in depth stories and have cops that fire their guns instead of just pulling them out. I wouldn't make it like B:TAS but make it as dark as that series was so you can have more drama I mean they doe have alot of good stories but it just doesn't work because of Batgirl and because it is to light.

[Silver Sable]

[quote=MLX]Yin is gone

She is? Sorry :O

[CLARKY]

IMO Ellen Yin was cool.
I did like her a lot, and I find it ridiculous to make her disappear from season 3.I think she had potential but it was at the end wasted ... oh well.

Oddly enough, I would keep the "campy" song. Campy Batman is part of the mythos, want it or not, and I find it intelligent to have found a way to bring it more seriously.
U may think I like the show but I don't.I'm just talking about what I like.
- make batman's ears longer and I'll be more than happy.
-for the rest I'd like too many changes to make the list here.

[Mee]

I would change...

1. The writing. Make it more like BTAS and JLU.
2. The art style. Make it more "comic booky" like in the 90's Spiderman series.
3. Less Penguin, make Joker and Bane more like the comics.
4. Give Batman the pouch belt and no yellow oval and the black/grey color scheme.
5. A different actor as Batman.

[Hellstormer]

I like Batman's voice he sounds younger and the slim belt looks fine in cartoons, I do wanna see the yellow oval disappear

[Warhammer]

1. Better writing (JLU or BTAS calibur).
2. Make Joker the true Clown Prince of Crime.
3. Appearances/Cameos by other DC heroes or other Batman characters. (Such as Etrigan The Demon, etc.)
4. A better theme song.
5. Characters (mostly Villains) with better back stories/histories.


:cool:

Note: Yin is gone again? I watched The Batman a month ago and she was there. Did she disappear again in this past month?

Probaly an old episode

[Mee]

Too young IMO.

[Warhammer]

Probaly an old episode

The episode i saw was when Joker, Penguin, and The Riddler competed to see who could take out Batman first. The fat sergeant found out that Yin had a relationship with Batman.
Was that an older episode or one of the newer ones of last month?

:cool:

[GraveDigger]

01. Make the music creepy again.
02. Get rid of the yellow oval on his chest.
03. B:tas-style Mr. Freeze (in personality).
04. Guest-appearances by other DC characters.
05. Make Batgirl more buxom.

[echostation]

1) cancel the show
2) ditto
3) ""
4) ""
5) same as 4 above

[kamillon66]

1) Keep the good theme music by that guy in U2
2) Change a lot of the villian looks
3) Have some other DC super heros like Superman or The Flash.

[Hellstormer]

03. B:tas-style Mr. Freeze (in personality)..My favorite redesign but I don't like that his powers are internal instead of his freeze gun

[Rowen]

:cool:

it was a last new epsidoe before they went into re-runs

[Warhammer]

OK, cool.
So Yin is not gone.

But i won't be watching The Batman again anytime soon.
Just wondering.

:cool:

[Sandman138]

Personally I liked most of the new looks, so no complaints there.

1. Better writing. Let's try to focus on characters and story rather than one-liners.
2. More Ragdoll and Catwoman, they tend to have the best episodes (though I haven't seen any of Strange's episodes, and he would seem to have potential)
3. Go back to the original theme song. Sure, the new one is a nice throw back to 60's camp, but the original theme was really good.
4. Gadgets are fun, but if TT got by without a costume change every episode, this show can too.
5. Get rid of Batgirl. It's nice that she's being more of a burdensome brat on him than an actual partner. Still, he could have gone solo for a while longer before they brought on the side-kicks.

[jusblaze21]

1 Get rid of batgirl
2 Add robin
3 change joker design
4 change how often they use the joker
5 add harley quinn

[droogiedroogie2]

Oddly enough, I would keep the "campy" song. Campy Batman is part of the mythos, want it or not, and I find it intelligent to have found a way to bring it more seriously.Um...is that even possible? Isn't the whole point of camp humor to not be serious?

[BatB]

1) Get rid of the campy theme song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2) Get rid of the one liners
3) Redesign the batgirl
4) Focus more on character development than on action!!!!!!
5) Show more Bruce Wayne around other people

[Abaddon]

I like Batgirl actually.She's a fun character.They need stop having Penguin and Joker be the villains every frickin week.

[Saint]

1) Fire crappy writers, replace them with good ones.
2) Make sure new writers write Batman like Batman, instead of the Peter Parker in a Batsuit that we currently see on "The Batman."
3) No Batgirl.
4) No camp.
5) Kevin Conroy as Batman.

[The Overlord]

So more or less, what everyone is saying is get rid of the Batman and make new episodes of BTAS?

[Silver Sable]

*Nods head*

Nothing can beat BTAS

[Hellstormer]

So more or less, what everyone is saying is get rid of the Batman and make new episodes of BTAS?
All hail BTAS :)

[Saint]

So more or less, what everyone is saying is get rid of the Batman and make new episodes of BTAS?
Damn straight.

[batboy99]

1) Keep the character's normal designs
2) Keep the character's normal origins
3) Bring in Robin in season 2
4) Bring in Batgirl season 3
5) Get rid of Ellen Yinu dont like yin?

[Silver Sable]

It's not that I don't like her but I feel she's not necessary for the show

[ghost113]

I would leave it except
1) new villians
2) more villians from the comics, where the hell is two face?
3) no batgirl
4) robin would be in it

thats it really

[Hellstormer]

No guns=no Two-face

[droogiedroogie2]

No guns=no Two-faceNo guns=retarded.

[ghost113]

penguin uses gund sort of.

[Dorian Gray]

The Joker, didn't like how he looked in the pictures and I'm pretty he sucks..


But I like they way they've done Killer Croc, watching th show for the first time now and he's pretty sinister.IMO

[ghost113]

he could use henchmen.

[ang_hulk]

1.bruces face
2.no robin
3.new villains
4.the villians having more contact with each other
5.less hookey villain changes,the penguin was a shame and im not a fan of jokers changes either.Its fine that the villians fight batman more but it takes away from who they really are.

But The Batman is just supposed to be a fun, abstract version of the real Batman. People take it WAY too seriously.

[deathshead2]

1.change animation studio so they can bring back jackie chan adventrues
2. make the bad guys have a reason to be bad guys
3. make the bad guys have more emotion
4. there is no 5.

[Spider-Girl]

I agree, the bad guys need motives. Although come to think of it, they don't often get a motive in other cartoons or comics.

Funny thing is you can tell that's the same person.

[Hellstormer]

Glad someone else noticed that.

[ghost113]

I had to say something it was just so obvious.

[hulkamania85]

I like Batgirl actually.She's a fun character.They need stop having Penguin and Joker be the villains every frickin week.

I like the Batgirl character too. I think she has made the show more interesting.

[ghost113]

hell no batgirl sucks robin is way better, I heard they were going to go for more of the teen titans robin.

[Hellstormer]

hell no batgirl sucks robin is way better, I heard they were going to go for more of the teen titans robin.
But that Robin is like Dick after he left Bruce more independent and self confident.

[ghost113]

but thats what they might go with though so.

[Mister J]

1. No more Batgirl.
2. Lay off the re-imagining of the villains and have them resemble more of what made them popular in the first place.
3. Lessen the overly-theatrical effect (i.e., ridiculous jumps, blurred motion)
4. Go back to the original theme.
5. Change the title to The Goddamn Batman.:batman:

[trustyside-kick]

Damn skippy...except put number 5 as number one and re-number the rest. :P

[EmmaInDoubt]

1) introduce batwoman,nightwing and huntress
2.) introduce ORIGINAL never before seen villains

[kage88]

1. get rid of the yellow oval.
2. a bane fight where he doesn't have to use the batbot to beat him.
3.scarecrow
4. ra's al ghul
5. no cheesy one-liners.
bonus: two-face

[ghost113]

yes i would like the scarecrow also.

[Hellstormer]

1) introduce batwoman,nightwing and huntress
2.) introduce ORIGINAL never before seen villains
Batwoman? The new one or Bruce Timm's Batwomen

[trustyside-kick]

1) introduce batwoman,nightwing and huntress
2.) introduce ORIGINAL never before seen villains

Never before seen villains? List some that have not appeared on the older animated series.

[ghost113]

toy master but he was okay he could have been bettter.

[Spider-Girl]

That Batgirl is cool, I think she really seems like a fourteen year old girl. It is the only thing they got right in the show.

[trustyside-kick]

Only thing they got right? Even though they did this in the old TAS I am still going to say this. Barbara (Batgirl) is not his daughter. She is his niece.

[Assassin]

I've only seen season one so bear with me if these things have happened

bring Gordon inn, take away yin
other dc heros
less joker, he should be a special character
better origins for the bad guys, not them just being there
batgirl is too early

things i like...
leave the theme song, i love it.
i like the animaton
i like the new twist on the characters.
joker can be diffrent, thats okay, but he needs to be voiced by Mark Hamil, thats the only rule.

[Mr. Socko]

1. New drawings like in TAS but slicker
2. New theme music
3. Add more villians like Two Face
4. Better stories and arcs
5. Get Paul Dini back on board

[trustyside-kick]

Ya I am surprised Two-Face has not made his appearance in that show.

[Mr. Socko]

I only want Two Face added if the show is gonna get better. Just imagine on this level how he'd look

Probably half Yellow face, green lips, long black dreadlocks, bald on the other side, and a orange straight jacket. Oh and the character has hot beans thrown on his face and is obsessed with coins.

[trustyside-kick]

I really hope that if they introduce Harvey that they do not make him look retarded...

[Mister J]

I've heard that they feel Two-Face's origin is too graphic for the kid audience. Of course, they could muck him up like they've done a good portion of the villains. I rather they leave him off.

[trustyside-kick]

Too graphic? Screw that. We want Two-Face.

[ghost113]

Trustside-kick barbara is his daughter not his niece.

[Warhammer]

Only thing they got right? Even though they did this in the old TAS I am still going to say this. Barbara (Batgirl) is not his daughter. She is his niece.

Batgirl is Comissioner Gordon's daughter.
She isnt his neice or Alfred's neice if that's what you were thinking.

I hope Batman & Robin didnt play tricks with you.

[BEER]

Too graphic? Screw that. We want Two-Face.

Damn right we do. :mad:

[trustyside-kick]

Trustside-kick barbara is his daughter not his niece.

Batgirl is Comissioner Gordon's daughter.
She isnt his neice or Alfred's neice if that's what you were thinking.

I hope Batman & Robin didnt play tricks with you.

To the both of you: Have you read the comics? In The Long Halloween she is his niece. He takes her in later though (when her parents die; I forget which issue) but that does not make her his daughter (like he didn't bring her into the world). He is her uncle and adoptive father. So I was right.


Oh and to Warhammer: Of course it did not trick me. I'm not retarded. =P

[ghost113]

i'm looking this up.

[ghost113]

looked it up and he was right CRAP!!!!

[trustyside-kick]

Lmao.

[ghost113]

I don't speak internet

[trustyside-kick]

Lmao = Laughing my ass off.

It's okay though; people make mistakes. =P

[Mrh7448]

Bring in Harvey Dent, but leave him as Harvey Dent for awhile, before turning him into Two Face, less of course this is happen in which I case I will just shut up.

[Stupify_me]

Ditch the campy theme song
Send Batgirl Away
make Riddler look normal
Keep the character's normal origins
Make the Joker more... Jokery than he is on the show.
Harvey Dent should be around somewhere
Return Bane
Make Mr. Freeze back to a scientist instead of a crook
Change the Jokers look
Make Batman look like Batman get rid of the damn pointy Jaw
Batgril should of came in after robin though I would be happy to not have either It would be nice to have a batman show with just batman for awhile.

and so many other things sorry five wasn't enough

[Green Goblin 1964]

1.new Character designs
2.get rid of the Lame theme song.
3.More villains from the comic instead of creating villains.
4.Make Batman be more scary like in batman begins and B:TAS
5.Get the original origins from the comics



I have a whole list but since i can only state five.......

[ghost113]

yes please get rid of that horrible theme music, and bring in more villians and possible recreate some of the horrible batman villians from his past like they did with maxie zues.

[spider-neil]

1. get rid of the ridiculous new theme song. the old one was PERFECT and the best thing about the batman. in fact the first time I heard 'the batmannnn' it creeped me out

2. get rid of the yellow oval

3. get rid of batgirl/robin
admit it all the best episodes have been when batman was alone.
traction, batman v dracula, the ultimate villian. batman works best ALONE.

4. more villians
how many episodes has the joker appeared in now, oh about a million :rolleyes:

5. more guest appearances from the justice league.
lantern, flash, ww and we're all dying to see superman

apart from that batman is good cartoon. if people are dying to see B-TAS then go and watch that I quite like the quirky art style of the batman.

[ghost113]

I heard flash and martian manhunter are going to appear, and the villians are actually going to be cool. Black mask, harley quinn, killer moth and some other i just can't remember who.

[Hellstormer]

Wow that must've been an awesome dream.:up:

[Hellstormer]

double

[ghost113]

No I'm wide awake , this is all going to happen in season 4.

[Nibune]

My 5 changes are hard because i don't understand why they choose not to give origin stories to the major villians in the shows beginning, additionally when the batman show itself is supposed to be a animated Batman: year one.
1) Why not start with Gordon as Bruce's to go cop, not detective maria...
2) No joker origin of any sort, which makes him and batman hard to pin as nemesis
3) Too much batman technology, whose the source? since its an origin show
4) He feels too much like a playboy, and not roughed up as Batman
5) The new robin looks as big as tim and has dick's costume from teen titans. Least original character design, Batgirl was done much better with bringing back the old purple outfit from the 60s show.

[ghost113]

it wasn't maria the character was not even hispanic but asian.
