ok so I'm behind on this upload (obviously) but I will say the 90's Batman Animated series is best for Bri (and everyone's) Batman knowledge. Ya'll have been educating yourselves in Justice League lore recently, even starting Young Justice, but the Brave and the Bold would be good for the larger DC understanding. It can be quite eccentric and outlandish, reflecting very much the Silver Age of the 60-70's, but it comes across as both entertaining and explorative to the nuanced characters of the larger DC universe. But of course, I will always say the Justice League tv show from 2000's Cartoon Network era is the best.

Batman knowledge? You know it's gotta be Batman the brave and the bold baby!
The dark knight movies are popular but they also are very.... Right wing... And strangely biased. The 90s cartoon is pretty good too. Overrated but not bad. Beware the Batman and The Batman(2003) are both fun but they're the types you need to know the basic formula for to appreciate.
Young justice after this show would be in you guys' interest for sure but honestly
The new Batman movie with Pattinson is a perfect newbie starting point! Hope I didn't just answer a rhetorical question on mistake.

Man the Batman slander going on in this video. Bruce absolutely uses his money and company to better Gotham. The city is just perpetually corrupt, and not everything can be solved with money and politics. Seriously, watch the Batman animated series. It's really damn good.

You guys want good Batman media? Then you should absolutely just go through the whole DC Animated Universe if you want a great Batman, and also just some awesome shows and movies to watch.
-Batman The Animated Series/The New Batman Adventures (The last season of the show rebranded as it had some pretty notable character redesigns.)
-Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (Movie)
-Batman: Mystery of the Batwoman (Movie)
-Batman: Mr. Freeze Subzero (Movie)
-Superman the Animated Series
-Batman Beyond
-Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker (Movie)
-Justice League
-Justice League Unlimited.
If you end up watching these shows, I'd recommend using this order or something along the lines, even if Beyond comes after the JL shows, some stuff from Beyond is spoiled by the JL shows. Especially the final episode of Unlimited which was used to conclude Batman Beyond in a BIG way, as Beyond sadly didn't get to reach a season finale for season 3, but not for lack of quality S3 is still great.
It may seem like alot, but it's an amazing ride especially come time for the Justice League shows. Season 2 of JL and JLU's story is some of the best animated DC media I've ever seen. Again I know it seems alot to go through, but genuinely it is a BLAST.
(Sorry for the long comment, I'm just a huge Batman nerd and the DCAU is such a great place to see some amazing Batman stories.)

You guys should check out some of the dc animated movies Batman year one, Batman Under The Red Hood, Justice League Crisis on Two Earths, and probably the best Batman movie ever made Batman Mask of the Phantasm

Batman's whole reason for fighting crime is because his parents were killed after being mugged in an alley, and he refuses to kill even the worst villains because he thinks it will make him no better than them or something even though letting them go to Arkham just to get released eventually to go back out and probably kill more people.

Just so you are aware Batman has had multiple Robin sidekicks in his life and this one is actually the one he adopted as a son Dick Grayson. When Robin says he already has a father he is in fact talking about Batman. Now I do know at some point this Robin and Batman had a disagreement and a big fight and went there separate ways but I don’t know when that occurs. It may explain why Robin is leading his own team though.

I'm pretty sure this doesn't translate to the cartoon at all so it won't spoil anyone, but some of the context of Dick Grayson's disagreement with Batman in the post crisis late 80s comics has to do with the fact that Batman told him it was too dangerous/risky to be his apprentice then took on Jason Todd as Robin soon after. There are also some other reasons but ngl I havent read a lot of early 80s batman.

If you guys are looking for movies i'm so down to see you guys react to the 80s/90s batman movies!!!! The dark knight trilogy is great too, but I also think The Batman (2022) works as a starting point if you don't want to watch a whole trilogy of movies.

That one's a banger too, but then they'd have to watch Superman and the og Justice League too. (Not that that's a bad thing, it's just a lot of shows to commit too). With Young Justice, they can go straight up to it, and it's newer too, so they can get an idea of what modern DC is like. Either way, all of these are peak animation, so I'm down for any of them.

Batman The Animated series is perfect for them in my opinion, it has so much Batman lore that makes exploring the Animated universe so much easier. Plus the very first Harley Quinn appearance EVER. So iconic. Young Justice has really great moments and awesome characters but it's not in my personal favs tbh.

I don't think a lot of the history of the origin of the show and comics have been explained yet, but Teen Titans (2003) is specifically based on The New Teen Titans (1980) comic book run. Which was actually one of the most succesful comic books runs of the decade. It was created with a combination of pre-established teen sidekicks such as Robin, Beast Boy, Kid Flash, and Wonder Girl and original characters such as Raven, Starfire, and Cyborg. This run is actually where Deathstroke the Terminator was created, more well known as Deathstroke now. However, the character has become so popular outside of the Teen Titans since then that he has appeared in many DC properties. The cartoon changed his name to his actual name and not his alias because they were afraid that Deathstroke was too scary for young children.

This is actually not true. Deathstroke's origin is actually in The New Teen Titans comic book run from the 80s not from Batman. They changed his name because they thought Deathstroke was too scary of a name for young children.

I checked the wiki. Pretty sure all the Japanese version of the opening are in these following episodes:
Nevermore, Deep Six, Mad Mod, Date with Destiny*, Winner Take All, Fractured*, Crash, Revolution, Can I Keep Him, Bunny Raven, Don't Touch That Dial, Employee of the Month, Stranded, For Real, Hide and Seek, and Revved Up.
And I think "Fractured" in Season 2 has a special intro? So, so long as yall check out one of those, I think the Billies will be satiated. ?

The series alternates between English and Japanese openings. The Japanese version is so good it should be listened to. But I’m okay with skipping cus the Japanese opening is for non serious episodes so I feel like it’d be a little spoilery in that way. I love Puffy AmiYumi as a kid and I’m pretty sure they did all the music in this series like that song that played during the Mad Mod chase. Id love to see you guys include a reaction to the music video at some point so you can hear the full theme

The brief wonder of Slade's weird obsession with Robin... Could be awkward to bring up but in the comics Slade has been known to fancy those below the appropriate age range, aka he's been portrayed as a pedophile. So that IS probably a factor in why he's being so creepy, but in a more 'we can't outright talk about it or say it' way.
Now I never have actually seen this show but my friend is a big fan so I've heard second hand about Slade and Robin's interactions from her, and boy wow... weren't kidding that guys a major weirdo. Good villain though!
