- Thread starter Death Metalist
- Start date
Hey guys. I have two sealed copies I'm selling. One is a bit banged up (the outer box is a bit crushed but the inside and the discs are perfect) The other is in great condition. Hit me up if someone wants to buy them. I posted about them in the buy/sell/trade thread.

Yo, where the heck is that version without the funko poops? Wasn't it supposed to be released by now?
Has never officially been confirmed by WB... I do wonder if will just wait out the rest of the year
It's out in Canada, only a matter of time for it to be released in the US.
Any word on the iTunes version? I played an episode preview, and it looked good, but I wasn't sure if it was HD Re-Release good.
I think it's the new transfer - it only used to be on there in SD (at least in the UK)
Bull Moose shows it coming out tomorrow: https://www.bullmoose.com/p/28166722
I've got an order in. We'll see what happens.

How are they gonna charge 20 bucks more for that right now?
Watching the series for the first time with the bluray, and it looks fabulous.
Only seen the first 6 episodes, but do the stories get better/more serious? The first few stories are a little too "Saturday morning cartoon" flavoured for my taste.

The box is flimsy. There's a chance even if packed well and it was handled nicely that it was already dented before they even packed it.
Silly question, but the season three packed in with the bluray is just The New Batman Adventures, isn't it?
I'm probably just going to throw mine out. It isn't a proper display box.
Yep!
These are the best episodes in the series and some of the best Batman stories out there.
-Two Face Part 1 and Part 2
-Heart of Ice
-Beware the Grey Ghost
-See No Evil
-Feat of Clay Part 1 and Part 2
-Mad as a Hatter
-Perchance to Dream
-Robin's Reckoning Part 1 and Part 2
-The Laughing Fish
-Almost Got Em
-I Am The Night
-The Man Who Killed Batman
-The Demon's Quest Part 1 and Part 2
-Read my Lips
-Dreams of Darkness
-A Bullet for Bullock
-Trial
-House and Garden
-Harlequinade
-Showdown (not really a Batman episode, but awesome showcase for Jonah Hex).
-Riddler's Reform
-Second Chance
So keep watching! Or just skip to the ones I mentioned :)
Very cool! I think I'll watch all of it at a casual pace, so it's smart that they end Disc 1 on a very nice uptick in quality.
Yep.
Literally the only reason why I didn't buy the standard edition is because of how ugly the cover is.
Just got my standard edition in the mail. Nice and plain looking!
Standard wins for the actual disc storage. The Deluxe uses cardboard sleeves which are not great. I like the presentation but it's not as practical as the standard cases.
This is a good list. I'd add a few
-Avatar(Indiana Jones pulp adventure with the Al Ghuls)
-Catwalk(the only great Catwoman episode)
-The Clock King(a formidable, original antagonist. he reminds of what I want the Riddler to be, use logical everyday objects instead of goofy puzzles)
-Deep Freeze(Evil Walt Disney finds a great use for Freeze's immortality, also has Miyazaki references)
-Harley's Holiday(the best slapstick comedy of the series)
-Joker's Favor(Hitchcokian Wrong Man in the Wrong Place thriller, showcase for the casual pure evil of the Joker)
-Vendetta(Great noir-ish, atmospehric horror thriller)
-Beware the Creeper(Infectiously fun, looney tunes episode that upends conventions)
-Critters(controversial, widely hated, but if you understand the joke that is Joe R. Lansdale's script, maybe not a more fun episode in the series)
-Double Talk(stylish suspense noir, great follow-up to Read My Lips)
-Growing Pains(Fantastic animation, stirring voice work, an emotionally gripping story...one of the series' very best episodes)
-Joker's Millions(delightfully goofy Joker showcase)
-Mad Love(A very fine adaptation of quite possibly my single favorite Batman comic)
-Never Fear(A clever, genuinely horrifying Scarecrow episode, where he takes away fear instead of causing it)
-Over the Edge(A hallucinatory nightmare Bad Ending for Batman's pursuit of justice. Animation, music, direction, script, top class all)
-The Ultimate Thrill(A viscerally exciting trifle, starring a compelling Bruce Timm femme fetale and exciting chase sequences)
I didn't list the New Adventure episodes, but there's definitely some really good episodes there.
I really turned around on Critters after listening to the audio commentary.
Critters is great because it's like a zany silver age story invading our modern dark sosphicated Batman world. The juaxtopsition is absolutely hilarious to me, especially the climax on the farm. Batman, straight face, runs off to grab like a truck, drives it towards the silo that's about to launch and infect all of Gotham with giant animals, dives out at the last minute and it's just filmed like the most dramatic thing ever.
What are the odds that there will be a massive BR set of all the DC animated stuff from this era (B:AS, S:AS, and JL)? Probably wont be any cheaper than getting all this separately, but just curious.
Standard Edition up on Walmart for $49.49.

Blu ray just launched in Australia today. JB exclusive and it's 20 percent off for anyone in Aus who's interested. I'm amazed at how good it looks and love that they kept 4:3. The higher quality definitely highlights some of the dodgier animations in earlier episodes but it's cool seeing how the show has improved as you keep watching. Still the best Batman related media ever made imo
I got my Standard Edition today but I cannot find the digital code anywhere...I got the 2 cases. With 2 pieces of paper, one about DC Universe. And one multipage pamphlet listing the contents of the boxset. But no code... I'm gonna call Walmart but I feel like I just haven't looked in the right place lol

Even if the limited and the standard are the same price, I will gladly pay for the standard. The art may not be as dramatic but the packaging is less cumbersome. I have a couple complete show sets that use that book style packaging and it's so annoying.
I got my copy of the standard edition from Walmart as well and it looks like I didn't get a code either. I'll try the digital support and see if they have any solution.
UPDATE: The support team sent me a code after sending them a picture of the box with my ticket number on a piece of paper.

What's up with Two-face showing up in Arkham Asylum for episode 24 when the last time we saw him was in the Poison Ivy episode and his face was still fine?
That doesn't seem right
Two-Face Part 1/2 is episodes 10/11 so not sure how missed
oh. OOOOHHHH. I didn't know the episode list on disc 1 had a page two! Legit thought POV was the end of disc 1.
Speaking of which, I just finished watching the Fear of Victory episode, and the animation was really nice.
Turns out it was animated by TMS. Can't help imagine how this show would look if every episode was animated by TMS.

Ordered the Standard Edition a few days ago and got it in yesterday.
Watched a few episodes this morning and I could really tell they did some major work.
Lots of stuff looks significantly better as far them retouching. I'm really impressed so far.
Unfortunately, my set was missing the Digital Code, so I'm having to contact WB Digital Support on that.
