    ....and here's the link to the trailer :)

    Well that was cool and all, but as Johro said - no gameplay footage means I don't care.

    I still find it a little funny how the person who did a pretty good Batman in Lego Batman 2 is going to be The Joker. Fun fact as well but turns out this guy is also Robin in Arkham City. I'm curious to see how Roger Craig Smith's Batman is going to sound like. I don't think he's a bad voice actor or anything like that and i do enjoy him a lot as Ezio, and Sonic :)

    Okay, Kevin Conroy, I love ya, but you're confusing the HELL outta me. Conroy IS working on an Arkham game, just not Arkham ORIGINS.

    Damned if I know. I think Conroy accidentally let something slip he wasn't supposed to yet. He said, both at Comic-Con and on his Twitter, that he's been working on an Arkham game, but WB announced someone else doing Batman for Arkham Origins. We'll just have to play the waiting game.

    From what I understand, he IS in Arkham Origins, just not voicing Batman.

    ...Maybe he's playing old-as-shit Bruce Wayne telling the story to Terry McGinnis. :p

    Right at the end, Batman's going to be punched in the throat and he'll say one line. lol

    Or his balls will drop.

    Maybe Batman will take up a smoking habit and his voice will deepen over the game, leading to Conroy's voice.

    Speaking of Kevin Conroy, my friend met him at Dallas Comic Con last weekend and got a picture taken with him. My friend is taller than me and Conroy was at least as tall as my friend if not a little bit taller. He also said he was a pretty cool guy. He also got his picture taken with Ernie Hudson. I now hate my friend.

    Wouldn't that lead to Christian Bale's voice?

    Maybe he should become a hippie so he could speak in a 60s Adam West voice.

    That gives me an idea. Here are some unlockable skins that I think should be featured in the game:

    Long Halloween
    Gotham by Gaslight
    Dark Knight
    Brave and the Bold
    60s
    Batman Forever (it would be funny)
    The Batman
    Two-Face Batman (see Batman Vol. 1 691)
    Superman (if he isn’t in the game)

    If they do Joker DLC

    Heath Ledger
    Jack Nicholson
    Caesar Romero
    Animated Series
    Return of the Joker
    Long Halloween
    Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth
    Vampire Joker

    I’ll take what I can get out of these.

    I'm glad that there is fans of The Batman out there :) It would be cool to see a Batman Animated series and a The Batman costumes.

    I preferred The Batman vs. Dracula to the rest of the series. It certainly had its moments, but I thought it was too Anime-ee.

    I personally would rather of had The Batman continue rather than Brave & The Bold. It was OK and it had its moments but i just thought Brave & The Bold was too cartoony and i get it, its meant to bring tribute to the 60's comics and Dark Knight but personally i just thought it was way way too cartoony. It had its moments and great episodes like the one where Batman goes undercover as Matches but loses his identity leaving the Birds of Pray to stopping him from taking over the city (Plus the birds of pray song was pretty) I also liked the one where Starro takes over all the heroes leaving Batman and some others as the only ones on Earth uncontrolled. Also the Batman & Owlman double episode was another good one. I enjoyed the last episode as well where Bat Mite tries to cancel the show. Before anyone asks, no i have not seen Chill of the Night :/.

    Also another reason i wish The Batman would have gone on would be i would love to see the Batman Vs Hush movie they was pitched :(

    That's why Brave and the Bold isn't part of the old continuity. Thankfully.

    Haven't seen a single episode, but I already know the best part about Brave & the Bold. It has freaking SPACE GHOST in one episode.

    I was thinking, they made movies out of Batman Year One and TDKR so does this mean TDKSA and All star Batman is next?....Ugh....

    In all seriousness what does everyone hope is made into a movie? I personally hope for Batman:Hush, Knightfall (Never read it but it would be great to see), Killing Joke, and maybe the Batman & Robin saga of Batman & Robin must die!

    Batgirl: Year One. Babs deserves the spotlight for a bit, IMO.

    Maybe Batman The return of Bruce Wayne saga would be good?

    Killing Joke would be really short unless they pad it out with crap.

    Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth (psychological horror mixed with Batman? YES.)

    Knightfall

    Black and White (it would probably form something like a Sin City knock off)

    Nine Lives

    Thrillkiller

    Thrillkiller's so GOOD. SO GOOD. On another note, I wouldn't want to see Arkham Asylum unless it was rotoscoped and then airbrushed over.

    An Arkham Asylum movie could be made into typical Batman movie yet also have some incredibly disturbing imagery.

    As for Thrillkiller, I’d like to see how they could pull off Joker being a woman.

    It would probably turn out like this.

    Being a huge fan of Barbara Gordon as Batgirl, I've been wanting to give this comic(and Batgirl Year One) a read.

    I have certain favorite parts of different adaptions.
    • The Brave and The Bold: I actually like how cartoony this series is! When it was on, it was exactly what I was looking for-- there aren't enough light-hearted Batman stories. It also drew attention to some of the lesser-known DC characters, like Spectre and Gentleman Ghost, reinvented Bat-Mite so he was actually pretty awesome, and brought awareness to how cool Aquaman actually is. I still maintain that my second favorite Batman cartoon voice other than Kevin Conroy is Diedrich Bader.
    • The Batman: The Vs. Dracula film was really good, and the show focused a lot on Penguin and Alfred, both of which I think are underutilized.
    • The Animated Series: Among many things, I love the Art Deco design, and the fact that several of the characters were original or totally redesigned, and were all pulled off well, Harley Quinn in particular (although I wish Roxy Rocket was used more, I think she has a lot of potential). I love Bruce Timm's art. The worst I can say about it is there's a bit of sameface when he designs women. But otherwise, he's great, and one of my inspirations.

    I think they are using Gotham By Gaslight Batman in their DC MOBA game.

    I think more emphasis was placed on the butt.
