    Listening to this from Lady Walker, re-recorded by Bond music veterans, The City of Prague Philharmonic. That main title at 1:21 is music to my ears. Or something. But my favorite part is at 2:29... full of longing, passion, tragedy and darkness.

    Shirley Walker is one of the best Batman/Superhero music composers ever. She is truly missed. Her Mask of the Phantasm score should have been Oscar-nominated. It’s also one of the best soundtracks ever. She’s just one of the people who made the DCAU great.

    As for Batman Day, I hope we can get an announcement for the Batman Forever Schumacher Cut and Suicide Squad Ayer Cut in some forms of media. The cast and crew deserve what should be better and more explained in-depth movies.

    Shirley Walker and Christopher Drake are my two favourite Batman composers. I wish Shirley had been hired for live-action Batman films too.

    She did help on Batman 89 in some musical way. She really got the music of Batman. Then again Batman has never had a bad soundtrack, at least from what I’ve heard and seen.

    Going back to Batman Day, for Joker 2, I would like to hear who the other announced actors are playing.

    Also, 31 years ago today, this classic episode cemented Batman TAS as more than a kid’s cartoon.













    This turned Mr. Freeze from laughing stock to tragic villain. We should be forever grateful. One of the best Batman stories across any media.

    I agree, it’s time to bring the Bat-family back to the cinematic Batman. It needs to be done just as much as Superman’s comic book villains getting some cinematic screen time.

    He is truly missed, as an actor and human being.

    That is such a nice story. I hope Kevin was fully aware of how much joy and meaning he gave to countless people. There is such wonderful power in being able to lift spirits in the darkest times. I’ll love and miss him always.

    It still saddens me that we won't see this for a number of reasons.

    I wouldn't be so sure:

    Must be one of those buddy comedies ala The Hangover where they drink too much and the next day they wake up and find out about all the s*it they caused. ;)

    I'm certainly glad the role went to Bale. He is my favorite Batman (a shared number-one spot with Keaton). Bale managed to play three roles (Batman, Bruce Wayne: public persona, Bruce Wayne: the man behind the mask) with an energy that I have rarely seen.

    I don't get that same vibe from Gyllenhaal, I'm afraid.

    Gyllenhaal is fantastic actor, I think he'd have gone down equally as well to be honest.

    DiCaprio as the Riddler is an interesting idea too, that would probably have been very good too. But I guess the Joker and Riddler are a bit too similar to have one follow the other in subsequent films, really. I'm not sure you could say there's a lot of contrast between DiCaprio and Ledger as actors at that time.

    I think Gyllenhaal would have made a good Batman, with that material. I don't think his sister would have been in TDK, though! Remember, he was also almost Spider-Man, after Tobey Maguire's back problems and bad ego. I think he could have pulled both roles off.

    I think that DiCaprio would have made a great Riddler, with Nolan in charge. I'm happy with what we got though. I wouldn't be surprised if the Joker and the Riddler make cameos in The Batman Part 2. Would be interesting either way.

    Yeah definitely, he'd have been a very charming Peter too when he was younger. He's got great range.

    Definitely one of the best of his generation. I can simply imagine him in any role.

    Rare comic book movies that I'm excited for. I'm happy that these are not in a shared universe with other super powered characters.
