Episode 19 - 'Legends of the Dark Mite!' Discussion Thread

[Mister J]

"Batman's biggest fan, BatMite, is also his biggest nightmare when the 5th dimensional imp pops up and in an effort to make Batman a better hero, throws Gotham City into chaos. Kidnapping the Dark Knight and traveling to the surreal 5th dimension, the adventure continues with references to many of the classic villains."

The episode was written by Paul Dini and directed by Ben Jones.

The voice cast includes Diedrich Bader as Batman, Paul Reubens as Bat-Mite Dee Bradley Baker as Bathound, Jim Piddock as Calendar Man/Calendar King and Tom Wilson as Catman.

Airing: May 29
---------------------------

The tone of this series has practically demanded a Bat-Mite appearance. I can't wait for the antics in the 5th Dimension. This should be good.

Craveonline.com has some previews but the audio is ****ed up on them.

 

[SHADOWBAT69]

The clips at Craveonline.com look awesome. Actually, now I'm sad I spoiled myself the villain sequence. I have a list of them, so unless you don't want to be horribly spoiled, click on the spoiler tag.

Spoiler

The villans in the "trippy" sequence are The Joker, Penguin, Catwoman, Riddler, Two-Face, Mad Hatter, Killer Moth, Catman, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, Kite Man, Polka-Dot Man, Zebra Man, and Tiger Shark.

There's also an appearance from Calendar Man, but he's not in the sequence.

I love the Paul Dini and Bruce Timm cameo, and especially what Batmite said at the convention, its so true! PS. Those bunnies do look really scary!

i saw the clips poor batsy[bat-mite that is] h's getting the worst of it in the last clip

 

[Bathead]

Just a heads up ... That second clip (preview #2) is a direct rip from an old WB Daffy Duck cartoon, "Duck Twacy" that features Daffy (as "Duck Twacy") being assaulted by take-offs of D*** Tracy villians.

I noticed that when someone told me (I remebered the naming off all of the villains like "Snake Eyes" but completely forgot about the chase secene.) I want to see this episode SO bad, the "Duck Twacy" scene and the Comic book convention are so full of win.

I just remembered, and I don't know HOW I could have forgotten this, but...One of the Duck Twacy villians in that original Daffy Duck cartoon was a character with a baseball bat for a head called...wait for it...
Bat-man.

 

[3dman27]

[Mister J]

No, Bat-Mite is still scheduled for May 29.

More pics HERE (To go along with what GamerSly said earlier, I could see some people wanting to have some of the villain spots saved for the airing [I believe they'll be well received], so I didn't post those. They're available at the link if you want to check them out.)

Maybe we'll get a Neon Noodle appearance.

We just need Ace the Bathound now.

It was listed in the voice credits, so I threw up a pic (#6) above.
