Batman Brave and the Bold (Warner Archive) Dec 5

Zero interest in any newer cartoons, but it could be cool if WB put some of their earlier stuff on BD.

Even if you don't like newer cartoons, you should check it out, since it's a tribute to the silver age comics.

The Legend of Korra is freakin' amazing. Btw, Beware the Batman is terrible. It'll take quite an adjustment for me to assimilate to that show.

I like the Beware Batman uniform. Its less like the current trend of having him in armor. I have no problem w/ the "new Alfred" either.
It really extra kid friendly and has the same style as the Green Lantern series.
And Im cool with them avoiding The Joker, Penguin, Scarecrow, and all the other Rogue Gallery regulars too.
Brave And The Bold ran through most of his main villains and B & C listers.
New is cool...ill see where it goes.

I couldnt get into The Batman(2004-08) series at all.

Brave and the Bold looks fantastic in HD, the Blu-ray should have top-notch picture quality. I am glad we are getting a chance to buy it on Blu-ray.

[BillieCassin]

A bit unexpected - but will totally be a Day One for me, too.

Sure hope this means WB might visit the idea of releasing TAS and Teen Titans!

Don't forget Batman Beyond and Justice League Unlimited.

Those would be great as well...but I'm going under the "Rome wasn't built in a day" ideal, and taking baby steps here with WB.
I'm thinking that since there won't be a live action DC movie for another 2 years, now would be a great time to focus on getting all these classics out. At least that' what the fan inside me thinks.

We just got my 4 year old Season 3 on DVD to complete the whole series for her. She LOVES the show and goes around saying Batman is her boyfriend. My 6 year old likes it as well.

I think we'll stick with the DVD's though. I don't need it on Blu that bad.

I didn't know Warner Archive even did blu-ray.

[batfan08]

This really excites me. I loved Brave and the Bold, and I really, really hope that this opens some doors for some of the other DC animated shows. The obvious candidates after this would be Young Justice and Green Lantern, as well as JLU (to finish off the Justice League series/since it's also fairly recent). I'm not sure about older stuff, like Batman and Superman, as I'm not really informed on the ins and outs of how those shows were created, and I hear various conflicting things. Does Warner Archives ever heavily restore certain things?

The original Teen Titans movie does exist in HD, it is currently sold on digital streaming providers. Unfortunately, the animation for it looks only marginally better than upscaled DVD.

There is a possibility that Teen Titans Go! might see a BD release, but most older fans aren't happy with it.

You know, with them doing Season 1 of this, and TAS on sale on Amazon all week, I wonder if they are testing the waters to see if Batman tv animation would sell on Blu. I know we already have JL and some other stuff, but no Batman series. Hmmm...

Well good to know it's available. Perhaps if a few new extras were included it would be a nice trade off....and if for anything, so I can upgrade my dvd.

[Rinzler]

In addition to the shows already named... I am hoping for The Batman, Legion of Superheroes, Static Shock, Green Lantern: The Animated Series, and Young Justice... Beware the Batman would be nice to have on Blu as well.

First things first... Finish Justice League, then move on to other stuff.

I don't want to wait seven years like it took with Disney to finish Gargoyles... They just recently released Gargoyles Season 2, Vol 2 as a DVD exclusive via their Disney Movie Club. (No word on Goliath Chronicles yet...)

This is really more of a replacement for Batman: The Animated Series hitting BD than some grand move to ultimately release that show on BD. Batman: The Brave and the Bold was animated in Hi-Def and already had finished 1080P masters in place, the only reason this show was considered for Blu-ray.

[Jimmy Smith]

This is great plus it gives me hope we will eventually also see Young Justice and Green Lantern the animated series Blu-Rays as well. For all three series I have held off because I refuse to support giving high def the shaft since all three series were natively animated in high definition
