IWIOY ep. 10 Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker

I'm not making a "expectations before I watch it segment" because I need to get this statement out there. Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker is AWESOME. This is the second best batman movie out there after the Dark Knight of course. Also, Mark Hamill as the Joker in this movie is the best portrayal of the Joker ever. Yea I went there, this Joker beats out Heath Ledger as the greatest joker of all time.
With that bold statement let's get to the movie, it's Batman Beyond time on I Watched it on Youtube.
So if you aren't aquainted with the Batman Beyond series. There is a new Batman in town 40 years after Batman the Animated Series. His name is Terry McGinis and under Bruce's tutelage he dons a new costume and is a different character, more of a young man that you can actually relate to unlike the old batman. So the plot is that the Joker is in town looking as young as ever and is starting to set up pieces for a huge plan. This seems even more strange considering it is revealed that Bruce Wayne actually killed the Joker 30 years ago when the Joker kidnapped and caused permanent mental damage to Robin.
This plot is brilliant. It's handled amazingly, keeping a dark feeling to the movie and setting up the Joker to be the most epic villain ever. The animation is brilliant and sets a tone for the whole movie. The direction is done very well, depicting action well and truly showing the excitement that the writers were trying to convey.
Finally I'll talk about the voice acting, Kevin Conroy is batman. That is a fact. There is no other batman besides Kevin Conroy. In almost any animated movie or show with batman Kevin Conroy has voiced him. And the idea of using two different voices for Batman and Bruce Wayne came from conroy, as we recently saw Christian Bale butcher that. And as usual, Kevin Conroy turns in a great performance as an elderly Bruce.
Ok I could go on forever about Mark Hamill as the Joker, just know this, every single line he delivers in this movie is perfect. It's that simple, he is the perfect voice of Joker.
The rest of the voice acting is solid new batman Terry does just fine. Oddly enough, a bit character does a spot on Christopher Walken impression, that is out of place but still really cool.
To wrap this up, this movie is amazing, it's brilliantly written with all the intangibles (animation, music) spot on as well. I give this movie a 10/10 it's that damn good!
