    So, I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for “Batman Beyond.” What initially started out as a studio mandate, with Warner Brothers wanting a teenage Batman show for a younger audience to compete with Spider-Man, somehow turned into an all time classic and left a huge impact on the entire Batman mythos.
    The vibe of this show was immaculate. From the fantastical cyberpunk aesthetic, the villain and character designs, the artstyle that felt different but still right at home with the animated series, and the electronic industrial metal that was the soundtrack. Not to mention Terry McGinnis, and everything that the character brought to the role of Batman with Kevin Conroy's Bruce Wayne as his mentor.
    This result of corporate meddling, through sheer act of will and talent from the team behind Batman: The Animated Series, Justice League, and the rest of the DCAU, managed to be something incredibly special. And I’ve always wanted to try my hand at writing a Batman Beyond movie.
    Whether it’s animated or live action, a Batman Beyond movie has so much potential to be something incredible. There are so many things you can do with the concept alone that can resonate with a new age of audiences.
    And so, here’s my pitch for “Batman Beyond.”
    With great power, there must also come great responsibility:

    I think for the 2nd act scene where Bruce shakes Terry's hand. I think it would be better to take more inspiration from one of the episodes of the Batman Beyond series. I think him saying then let’s get started, Terry. It would be better because later, at the end of the film, you can bring that back and have Bruce call him Batman. He has finally moved on from the mission. And picked his successor. Also, to make it more earned it would be funny to honor the original bit that even in retirement, Bruce still thinks he’s Batman. Like it could be a scene of Bruce locks terry out of the computer. And he can’t guess the password for the life of him. and it’s just simply Batman. Terry could say something funny like “greatest detective my ass.”

    • @Mr.En1gm4

      I don't even know if Bruce should be calling Terry Batman by the end of the movie. In his mind, Bruce IS Batman. He doesn't even call himself Bruce in his mind he calls himself Batman. I don't think that should change after Terry goes through one Batman adventure.
      Maybe Jason or even Damien could call him Batman by the end? But really I think it's enough that Terry fully accepts that he's Batman by the end of the movie. Bruce allowing Terry to continue wearing the suit and acting as Batman would be enough.
      As for when they make their deal to let Terry use the suit to get those drugs off the street, I would imagine it going a little more like:
      Terry: *holding out his hand to shake* "So we have a deal?"
      Bruce: *ignoring the offered hand* "Fine."
      Bruce turns to leave and then says over his shoulder: "But this doesn't make you Batman."
      Or something like that.

    I never liked the idea of Terry being Bruce's biological son because it creates the Idea that the mantle of batman is something that can only be passed through blood. When the whole idea of Batman is that anyone can be a hero even without powers. Anyone can wear the mask that's the message batman beyond should share especially since it did it before spiderverse. So i think it's best that Bruce and Terry aren't related they can still have that father,son mentor relationship but there NOT related by blood only by there burning sense of justice. And to best show it I think Terry should be played by an Asian American actor most preferably Charles Melton. I always saw Terry as more Asian than Caucasian in the show and in the comics and im pretty sure in the White Knight he's half Japanese i think. I think it fits and it wont effect the character that much.

    At 13:13 it’s the latter pronunciation of ‘Akira’ that’s more accurate to how a Japanese person would say it. But I still say it like “ah-KEY-ra”most of the time, because most people in the US know it that way. Most have no idea what movie I’m talking about when I try to pronounce it correctly.

      ​@@the_wolfclan05 he's already appeared in gaming, he's the playable Nightwing in Injustice 1 and unplayable Nightwing/playable Robin in Injustice 2. which was bs that Robin was playable but not Nightwing despite him being Nightwing in all but 2 scenes(Flashbacks).
      Josh Keaton(AKA Spectacular Spiderman/Arkham Timmy) was actually going to be playing a future Batman in an Arkham Project as Damian but that was cancelled, a playable Damian was also set to appear alongside an aged up Timmy(as Red Robin) and Catwoman in a story dlc facing off against Two-Face for Gotham Knights but was scrapped? Its either scrapped or they're slow asl with content considering ive heard they never officially cancelled it(which doesnt always mean its coming out, look at Rockstar Games and some of their games that are long since abandoned but never officially cancelled)
      Damian fans eating bad in terms of gaming, scrap that they arent eating at all theyre locked in a cage with food thats just out of arms reach.
      But live action youre right, Titans had a good enough universe and we barely seen Tim as Robin. It would've been good to see Damian show up eventually if it continued.

    I've been thinking of what a Batman Beyond film would be like for years, and I've always just pulled mainly from the TV show thinking that it was the best way to tell the story. But holy shit was I wrong! You were able to blend in elements from the show while also making it uniquely its own canon. I especially loved the inclusion of the Bat-family and how they were all respected. For years I always wondered how an older Bat-family would feel about Bruce's decision to hang up the cowl and leave the city to become Neo Worse...I'll see myself out. But seriously, these are people who all shared a common mission and the majority of there lives together, and I love how you brought them back in. Great video man, definitely one of my favorites!

    Batman Beyond really does have that corporate mandated sound to it ("Batman in the Future"), so it actually becoming one of my favorite adaptations, if not my favorite adaptation, of Batman through sheer skill and passion in the execution is so cool. A kid from the lower levels of the slums finding purpose with the ability to fly above what he thought his life was meant to be, what everyone thought his life was meant to be, is so powerful; I love how this really focuses in on that aspect.
    Love that it's actually an adaptation and not just a rehash of the exact same story beats, but in live-action (even though I love Terry's dad being murdered, and everything that builds off of that). And I don't think it just gives the people who haven't watched the show something, but also the people who have and get to almost experience it for the first time again.
    I love Bruce actually trying to pull the trigger, but it jamming. And how it's in Crime Alley. Jesus.
    I love that it's actually doing something. Like, it's actually saying something. There's a story here. I feel a lot of people's "pitches" for stories like these are very, just, flat. Kinda boring. They don't really do anything interesting. The whole Bane story here, and Terry being set up for Dick's murder, and the rest of the Bat-Family getting involved, I really love that.
    Is this your best one? This might be your best one. The lights changing to red, to Terry's bat-signal, gave me chills.
    "The Batman has returned." That whole scene goes so hard.
    "Where there is 'apathy,' 'greed,' 'corruption,' 'power,' there is 'hope,' 'honor,' 'courage,' and 'justice.' HOLY SHIT.

    @Jarrlid97 2 місяці тому +11

    I really enjoyed watching this, but there's a few parts of this prewrite that really bother me.
    Terry's dad's death being an accident rather than a part of a cover up changes a lot about his dynamic with Bruce. It's what causes Bruce to open up that door in Rebirth, what causes Bruce to let him in. It forces Bruce into a position where he both is able to sympathize with Terry for his loss and feel partially responsible for it as it never would have happened if he continued to run his company and fend off Powers' hostile takeover. It highlights to him that Bruce Wayne's retreat from the world is just as damaging to Gotham as Batman's.
    One thing that I really appreciated about Batman Beyond was how sparingly they used Bruce's original rogues gallery. I feel like forcing Bane into Terry's story and pushing out Blight, Terry's most iconic and best developed foe, doesn't really work for me. It makes it feel less like Terry stands on his own or that Gotham needs a new Batman if he only has to deal with Bruce's geriatric sloppy seconds.
    Derek Powers usage in this also feels fairly weak. He just feels like a generic business man, he loses a lot of those signature feelings of collected cunning and smug charm he exudes. Making him a nepo baby is a choice that, while understandable from a commentary perspective (as you yourself outlined), serves to make him feel less competent and therefore threatening. I think the nepotism commentary (and commentary on superhero legacy) would be better saved to be used on his son Paxton Powers, who wasn't well explored in the original show anyway.
    I do like the idea of Powers have influence over the GCPD, but I feel like keeping the police a public institution actually makes a stronger commentary. It highlights the ways corporations and billionaires are able to exert power over and contort public resources to their own benefit and help stymie reform efforts in a broken system. Essentially how that culture you talk about of all the bad apples is able to flourish partly because it benefits people like Powers.
    On the inclusion of the other Bat-Family characters, I feel like most of them would be better served in a sequel that focuses on their relationship with Terry after he's already established. We as fans already know Terry and we know them, but for most people this would be an introduction to most of them. It would be easy for the story to lose either focus or weight by trying to introduce too many characters at once. Though I did love that little scene with Jason Todd, and feel validated that I'm not the only one to make the connection that Terry's story heavily parallels his own.
    You mentioned in the video that killing Dick Grayson has become a trope. I get your reasoning for doing so, but I still think the existence of that trope makes it feel more predictable and makes it feel like it looses weight.
    The scene with Terry basically calling out Bruce for his failings feels a bit generic and on the nose. For a lot of legacy characters or mantle passes it's very common to have the new character rail at the failings of the old, but it doesn't tend to endear them very much to the audience. It feel like you're giving him a hill he never had to climb in the original by doing so, that he literally has to prove that he's a "better" Batman rather than just being Batman. The setting itself shows Bruce's failures, having a scene were a character literally yells it out at him feels redundant and preachy. It also doesn't really fit Bruce and Terry's dynamic where they do like and respect each other, with their disagreements instead mostly coming form how they approach problems or situations.
    Overhaul I enjoyed getting to hear someone else's ideas for a Batman Beyond movie, a thought experiment just about every fan has run through at some point. It really got to me think about and examine Batman Beyond more, and why I connected with it in the first place.

    As much as i like your pitch, it just feels like a lot is going even if this were for a near 3 hour live action movie. Derek Powers should be the overarching villain for a trilogy of Batman Beyond films. Judging by the concept art, Inque could have been the villain for the first movie, so I think building up to Derek Powers aka Blight by having the villains be a result of his corrupt company is a great way to set him up. As for the Bat-Family, the first movie should solely be Bruce and Terry story with the rest of the Bat-Family appearing in the sequels. The first to return in the second movie should be Barbara, Dick, Jason, Katherine, and Tim, and in the third movie, Damian, Stephanie, Cassandra, Luke, and Harper some would support Terry being Batman, others would be indifferent or against it. Part 2 would have an empire strikes back style ending, with part 3 being what I like to call Batman: No Way Home

    Bañé and derricks story is very good but Damien shouldn’t be a bodyguard but instead the leader of the league of assassins since Bruce never let him take his mantle. It would be a good battle for the cowl story for the sequel. Also terry’s dad needs to die due to him finding out about blight and Derrick because it gives terry a reason to go after it and Bruce would be more willing seeing a way to help terry get over his vengeance. Therefore you could argue that is why terry is the best protégé since he has the right mentality for Batman and none of the vengeance like dick Grayson.
