Two Fun Facts: King of the Royal Flush gang is voiced by one time James Bond actor George Lazenby. There's a cute injoke where he says "We have all the time in the world," a line he said as Bond. Much more heartbreakingly, he points to a former King and screams "Do you know what it's like to live in someone's shadow?" Considering he only got one movie as Bond, oof. If The Eggbaby seems like a goofy episode, it was intentionally made that way - the BB team needed to submit an episode for Emmy consideration and made the goofiest, silliest episode they could to appeal to the Emmy committee. It worked, and the Eggbaby is the reason why Batman Beyond has an Emmy to its name.
40:51 FYI Chimera refers to creatures that are made out of many other animals, so Chimeras can have many different forms. Him calling himself Chimera simply means that he currently is a Frankenstein mash-up of many different animals.
great video!!! it's lowkey making me so nostalgic because i used to watch batman beyond w/ my dad every morning before school, and now i'm away at college 😭
Honestly i would say Eyewitness is a sequel to Over the Edge, because it's Barbara turning her nightmare into a self fulfilling prophecy. It's her fault because she chose to keep distance instead of working with Terry and Bruce.
Its pretty crazy how many people died in this show lol and I do like that terry has a somewhat stable relationship with his mom and brother and girlfriend compared to Bruce who's driven everyone away or they've died and Bruce was always getting the girls he got Talia, Selina, unfortunately Barbra and wonder woman lol
I skipped to the end conclusion wasn’t able to watch the full vid but you took the words out of my mouth. It’s a huge achievement with what they did with Batman beyond. It is crazy WB has neglected this property for so long. Look what another company like Marvel did with miles morales..
if Batman beyond had more episodes i would like to see interaction between inque and her daughter,would she forgive her even though her daughter betrayed her also would like to see her more anti-heroic actions as well (in comics, Inque forgave her, even blames herself for her daughter became like this)
Haven't watched the vid yet, but loved you're video ranking every Batman: The Animated Series' episode. I can tell this will be as good if not better in quality!
Loved the entire DC Animated Universe by Dwayne McDuffie, Bruce Timm and Co. The Earth Mover episode was so eerie man, the most chilling thing ever ! Scarier than most live action horror movies man!
I think it's season 2 when the batsuka took it over. Terry should took one of the old bat suits and put it on. But no he's departing at night wings Mask It really would have been cooler but the batman suit on
i actually really like season 3 episode 9s betrayal it has some really good messaging about how the crowd you used to run it with when you were younger might not grow up with you, that people you used to call friend might in fact be a loser that needs to grow up. Its a message i can imagine alot of people could relate to
Great video! I had never seen this series before but I did have Return of the Joker and I do remember liking it growing up. Once I watch the Justice League show I'll watch your video. Keep up the great work!
i think the biggest issue people have with season 2 and 3, including me, is that the season doesn't have a main antagonist. batman beyond season 1 had blight as the main antagonist of the season, and batman had to deal with blight and also the random villain of the week. this made season 1 feel like it had a more connected story while season 2 didn't really have a story besides having terry connect with ace. season 2 has the most interesting case because you can have the splicer leader be a main antagonist as it makes sense, then you can introduce cobra and have the season finale be chimera and cobra working together, so the cobra two parter is the season finale of season 2 and the splicer story line is continued throughout the story. you can even connect other villains to splicing like ratboy, the mutant dog, even stalker and false face. season 3 i always thought big time would make a good main antagonist considering the entire point is he's terry's friend so having like 3 or 4 episodes about big time is a good idea while also having terry deal with more gangs as bigtime wants to deal with the crime underworld. alternatively you could have the justice league two parter be the finale and have the season be about batman dealing with bigger threats or working with a team. you can have aqua girl come to gotham at the first episode and they team up for the season and she's like the best friend superhero. i like that idea more but if we want just batman bigtime is a better idea.
It's definitely a possibility, I probably would after I am done with the DCAU but I probably won't cover Static Shock or The Zeta Project unless there is a demand for it but at the moment I am waiting to see if this video does well eitherwise I will probably take a break from doing big videos like this
Well at least you ranked the legendary BTAS and Beyond :) IGN (even though it's not always great) ranked BTAS as number 2 in their top 100 animated series and batman beyond as number 40 in their list I think.
@@Zach.R you need to definitely cover Static Shock, people really need to stop throwing this show away. It's really a underrated show. Yeah do the Zeta project
I personally don't see how it was rushed since I spent over a month working on it but I do appreciate the feedback. I am currently working on a Justice League video which I have spent even more time on so hopefully that will be better than this video :)
29:54 Gotta love how this is the last time we see Batman chronologically. *Thee, Batman.* Not old man Bruce, not Bat-Fake(Terry), not anyone else trying to fill his shoes. This, is Batman’s last fight, before truly stepping back to let Terry take the reins.
I am currently working on a Justice League video then I will be doing a JLU video but if that many people want a Static Shock or Zeta Project video I eventually will
I already responded to a comment pointing this out but it's the fact that Meltdown is only the 4th episode in the show, it was just a poor choice of words
I really hope we get a revival even though Kevin passed we can continue the story with a coma Wayne and nightwing mentors (just no comic version of nick fury or maybe) that whole joker kidnaps Alfred and shoots Grayson was soo confusing especially if it was after the return of joker backstory
If you ever peek at the batman beyond subreddit, every now and then when they do a villains ranking or something like that curare' gets placed very high and im like "this character has zero personality, whats wrong with yall?"
2:00:47 ra was smart to manipulate an older Bruce but make him young enough to where he can get back to near peak then you got a dangerous enemy once again
You should review Return of the Joker (which is the best Batman Beyond thing in general) and the JLU episode with Terry in the future where he finds out he's Bruce's son. I don't like that episode but its technically canon so...
Already have reviewed Batman Beyond Return Of The Joker but I will get to that episode when I talk about JLU which will be sooner than you think since I'm already working on a justice league video
You used to do PSA videos, right? I really liked those videos. Batman Beyond is great, i just finished this series about a week ago. Edit: Obviously you did the psa videos lol I didn't realize you changed your name. I always like the slappers episode, but it might just be nostalgia because i remember watching it when it came out.
32:25, sadly it's not Beyond saying they were a thing, they always have been a thing as far as I know. Look for the video titled: "Bruce Wayne and Barbara Gordon phone conversation" and read the description, lately they made so that BRUCE WAYNE GOT BARBARA PREGNANT BUT THEY LOST THE BABY OH MY GOD OH MY GOD. It's from the episode "Mystery of Batwoman" from The New Batman Adventures (basically Batman: The Animated Series sequel, with some questionable design choices, like, Joker is a nightmare, not because he's scary but because he's... I don't know what he his in that show, he just sucks so bad... At least it gave us Nightwing, who's a gigachad and I'm willing to die to protect what I just said, he can be even better than Batman. Yeah come on kill me guys I know you want.), there's the episode "Old Wounds" too, which is all narrated by Nightwing, in which he says why he left Bruce and Barbara too. Beautiful episode. Bruce in BTAS when seeing her for the first time tells her: "Barbara come in! You've grown! it's been what? Four years?" and puts his hands on her chin, it's the episode "Heart of Steel Pt. I". Yeah, she was an adult but they ad something like 12 years of difference, like she was 18 and he was 30 and a 12 years old difference can be okay for people in their 40s dating someone in their early 60s, but 30 and 18... well, Bruce, you can have any woman on the planet, come on... isn't Catwoman, the best of the bunch in my opinion, enough? Or Talia? COME ON. Also, Spider-Man, into the Spiderverse was meant to be a Batman Beyond movie in that style, but either WB or DC, can't remember, said no, it would have been so beautiful, there are three concept pictures out, one of them has Terry in the Batsuit escaping from Inque in the traffic of Neo Gotham, and it looks so good, I can only imagine how beautiful they could have animated Inque...
You sure? Cobra was in the 80's with G.I.Joe unless Kobra was in some obscure Batman comic. Edit: okay yeah you're right. Just looked into it which is probably the biggest surprise I've heard today
@@blackheart0117 you're tripping, it's literally the smallest difference to the point where who actually cares. Edit: like hey man, if you care that much then go ahead I'm pretty sure 99.9% of people don't
It's literally hinted at that they got engaged and married at the end of "Epilogue" and the scene of Terry breaking up with Dana is a dream sequence, as all of the black and white sequences are.
We are returning to earth 508 in Justice league crisis on infinite earth part three the news confirmed it Batman, and Joker from the DC anime universe, will return Kevin And Mark will return as Batman and Joker again
Do feel like most of the villains are weak characters wise like Shriek and for the The Joker’s we’re there really boring being just thugs in clown makeup.
Yeah look that's pretty fair. I am not the biggest fan of Shriek anyways I would probably say Inque or Derek are the best but Derek disappears at the end of season 1. Funny how the best villain is Mr. Freeze which he is only in 1 episode
@@Zach.R I do like Earthmover, he has a very synthetic backstory and goals outside of kill his former friend and him using the last of his strengths to save his daughter was pretty good same he’s a one off, And thanks for replying to my comment.

This is one of the best videos I have ever seen
Thank you heaps!

THE DAY HAS COME. Sorry I'm late to the video
Great editing Zach! ^^ ❤

I hope we can get a season 4 one day given xmen 97 success
Nice. Can't wait to watch this.
41:41 liked the way he instantly cured the bat serum because it’s the third time it’s happened
This is the content we need
if Batman beyond had more episodes
i would like to see interaction between inque and her daughter,would she forgive her even though her daughter betrayed her
also would like to see her more anti-heroic actions as well
(in comics, Inque forgave her, even blames herself for her daughter became like this)
I'd love to see more of blight and maybe they could have introduced the polka dot man
Batman beyond is one of my favorite and help me to get over my anxiety when I graduate high school and dont know what do with MY future

Batman beyond is the blueprint for good sequels that reboot a series
I think it's season 2 when the batsuka took it over. Terry should took one of the old bat suits and put it on.
But no he's departing at night wings Mask It really would have been cooler but the batman suit on
True however I doubt the batsuit would’ve fit terry would’ve been cool if he went as nightwing though
I watch this at least twice a week. Best Batman beyond video I’ve seen

But the one we have is so good
Have Justice League, Justice League Unlimited, Zeta Project, and Static Shock episodes to do next. Do those please.

@@Zach.R OK, the 1st two is fine with me. 😃
Well I know what my Friday is going to look like for the next 2 and half hours
Were Bruce's eyes always yellow and jaundiced? I never noticed that before.
In Batman Beyond yes they are always like that
First off thank you for your dedication sir. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
“No way we’re already here!” 9 minutes into a 2+ hour video 😂
That's the point, the point is that I didn't know the episode was so soon in the show
I already responded to a comment pointing this out but it's the fact that Meltdown is only the 4th episode in the show, it was just a poor choice of words
😊 blight vs mr freeze was cool
I really hope we get a revival even though Kevin passed we can continue the story with a coma Wayne and nightwing mentors (just no comic version of nick fury or maybe) that whole joker kidnaps Alfred and shoots Grayson was soo confusing especially if it was after the return of joker backstory

no lie can anyone see common rapper from john wick play stalker live action
2:00:47 ra was smart to manipulate an older Bruce but make him young enough to where he can get back to near peak then you got a dangerous enemy once again
2:09:13 You mean the bat wing (I would have done editing for emphasizing in the mistake)
I originally wrote in my script Batwing but no, it's just the Batmobile
2:24:15 well if you watch the time movie you return of the Joker then you get something a lot more people would recognize
You should review Return of the Joker (which is the best Batman Beyond thing in general) and the JLU episode with Terry in the future where he finds out he's Bruce's son. I don't like that episode but its technically canon so...

Hell yessssss!!!! Can’t wait for JL and JLU!
Are you planning on doing the same thing for other cartoons outside of the dcau?
I really hope you do
After I'm done with Justice League and Justice League Unlimited and there is still an audience that wants it then yes
W
So I looked up when Hooked Up came out and now have learned I am 4 days younger then you....I just thinks that's neat :)
I haven’t see the zeta project and i was confuse that zeta reappear with a girl and a new look that differ from original look from the second season
