3ngag3 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 (edited) Spoiler After the death of his protege Jason Todd, Batman has retired into the darkness. Ten years later, still haunted by the death of his parents and the release of a certain nemesis, he once again takes up the cape and cowl to dispense justice. Don't miss part one of the two part Toonami movie event based on Frank Miller's classic tale, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. Tonight at 1:30AM and Part 2 next Saturday at 1:45AM Edited August 16, 2020 by 3ngag3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The1gairon Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 .... So we have two dicussion threads for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3ngag3 Posted August 15, 2020 Author Share Posted August 15, 2020 No, there's two Batman movies tonight. Year One and The Dark Knight Returns Part 1. I figured rather than making a second thread for TDKR, we can lump both weeks of the movie into one thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 (edited) If you're gonna do this, then do it right!! But seriously, which one of these movies is better? Are they both worth recording?? Edited August 15, 2020 by OwlChemist81 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Year One is the prologue, DKR is considered by many to be the definitive Batman story. Both are worth it IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katt_goddess Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 I've pinned this one as the go-to for the two movies. However, should the gallery in general decide at the end of this weekend that the tonight's discussion might be considered too rich and a second thread should be floated for Part 2 next week, just tag or PM me at that point and I'll de-pin / re-pin as necessary. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
