I don't usually post...but, Bruce Timm will have an hour session at the San Francisco Wondercon on March 3rd (Saturday)

http://www.comic-con.org/wc/wc07_prog_sat.php
5:45-6:45 DC Universe: Super Heroes Go DVD— DC Comics, Warner Bros. Animation and Warner Home Video have joined forces to create a new series of DVDs based on DC Comics' popular graphic novels. Join animation legend Bruce Timm (Batman Beyond, Superman: The Animated Series) and DC Comics luminaries Dan DiDio (Senior Vice President/Executive Editor) and Gregory Noveck (Senior Vice President/Creative Affairs) as they guide you through the intricacies of translating these iconic characters, revered stories and dazzling artwork from acclaimed graphic novels to animated life. In addition to a captivating Q&A, the panel will include a sneak peek of the animation triumvirate's first DVD release ... featuring a caped wonder and rumors of his early demise.

I was sad to hear Timm say that it's meant to be a "stand alone" movie, outside of the existing DCAU,

 

[Ultimate_Superman]

What Superman: Doomsday is a stand alone?

The hell it is

It's better that way. This is the greatest idea WB and DC have ever had regarding adapting their properties. Straight, direct translations of graphic novels.

Most of these wouldn't fit in the DCAU anyways. How the hell would they fit New Frontier into the DCAU at all?

This is gonna be great. I cant wait for The Dark Knight Returns and Kingdom Come. Hopefully they'll put out some Loeb/Sale books too.

 

[Prognosticator]

I think DoS would have been able to fit in the DCAU. Just like it did in the comics.

 

[Kebab gud]

when ever i hear about this i start making a mental list of Arc's and miniseries i want made into animation..
.. scary part is that at the moment.. i can only think of 3...

 

[StorminNorman]

I think DoS would have been able to fit in the DCAU. Just like it did in the comics.

But Superman already fought Doomsday...and won.

 

[GNR]

I hope NF doesn't drop the John Henry storyline.

 

[Tristantulanka]

new frontier is DEFINITELY happening along with death of superman. I'm hoping that they treat us with alot of these over the next couple of years in place of taking the good DC cartoon shows off of TV. *coughDCAUcough*
The only problem with this is that i could do lists and lists of ones i want to see made... hell here are five off the top of my head;

kingdom come
dark knight returns
golden age
superman: red son
jla year one

 

[Katsuro]

"Superman: Red Son" would be awesome. Maybe "Birthright" too. There are so many great TPBs and GNs that would make great animated movies.

 

[RKromwell]

Batman: Hush would be a good one. And who wouldn't want a movie of "The Killing Joke".

 

[Steelsheen]

Batman: Hush would be a good one. And who wouldn't want a movie of "The Killing Joke".

i believe their using part of that storyline in The Dark Knight.

 

[GNR]

I know a Green Lantern one was mentioned as being in "possible development".

 

[CConn]

i believe their using part of that storyline in The Dark Knight.

Actually, Nolan's stated that TDK will be more like Batman #1 than TKJ.

 

[Octoberist]

or at least, a combination of both stories.

 

[JTStarkiller]

As disappointed as I was that JLU was cancelled, these three DTV projects are so much more exciting than more JLU episodes. Can't wait.

 

[CConn]

"Superman: Red Son" would be awesome. Maybe "Birthright" too. There are so many great TPBs and GNs that would make great animated movies.

I would KILL for a Red Son DTV.

Or Batman and the Monster Men...mmmmm.

 

[Kebab gud]

three? there might only be 3 for now but there is a LOT more coming..

 

[32CAGE]

Batman: Hush would be a good one. And who wouldn't want a movie of "The Killing Joke".

Hush would be super.

 

[explode7]

Did anyone know why JLU was cancelled???

 

[deathshead2]

Did anyone know why JLU was cancelled???

They never said why, but we pretty much understand why. Its cheaper to just buy anime and redub it then make a whole show from the groundup. Also its cheaper to make shows with way way cheaper animation like billy and mandy.

 

[Hellstormer]

I want a Doctor Mid-Nite one, from the 98 mini!
