Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns Animated

[Mace Dolex]

That was from Book Two, so it would've been in Part 1.

I hadn't looked through the book lately that I forgot.

Yeah, I have a hunch it was already cut well before the shooting actually happened. They didn't include any of those little interludes (like the woman on the train with the art kit for her son). They're such short little scenes that are fantastic in the book, but are probably really hard to pull off in an adaptation, mainly because the films don't have the narration to set it up.

The also cut out the homophobic slur of that one African American dude giving his opinion on what Batman should do with them during the talking head segments of which was appropriate since little kids might see this too.

One thing they screwed up on that sort of bothers me was during one of the news reports..

they say that the mothers council and the victims council both want sanctions against the batman..... in the comic the 1 organization wants sanctions and the victims group wants more liberties..

 

[Changeling]

That bothered you ?

Big deal..

 

[the5timechamp]

well considering that a big part of the story centers on how "everyone" reacts to the reappearance of the batman I thought it was a shame that even though they included the scene they made a small oversight left a mistake in....

sorry didnt mean to actually discuss the product..

The timeline for the release of part 2 is encouraging, though the sooner the better.

 

[Two-Face]

I wish this movie was released in cinemas. How awesome it could be.

 

[shauner111]

They should release both parts together in cinemas. Would be awesome!

 

[BattleCat]

This is one of the best Batman (including live action) movies I have seen. Can't wait for part 2, my expectations are through the roof.

 

[MadVillainy]

did they ever release the score or at least bits of it? I really REALLY want it.

No... but it's supposedly in the works.

In the meantime you can listen to the theme song.

I wonder if they'll keep the scene in Part 2 where Batman's dressed as the homeless woman when Superman swoops in (well a blur).

thank you

 

[The Joker]

I hope so. Nazi Bruno is in that scene.

 

[War Party]

I'm going to try catch that preview while I'm at NYCC. We'll see how that day goes.

 

[Hush]

I just watched pt 1 and wow it was awesome.

[Kane52630]

Looks pretty awesome.

 

[BH/HHH]

Trailer was awesome, also don't know if it was the way it was cut but seems the trailer shows the ending may appear definitely.

Best thing for the trailer though was Superman having the Yellow S on his cape.
