I swear I had something for this |

This was rather unexpected today, but it still doesn’t make this any easier. Batman: The Animated Series was a show that was not only timeless, but excellent full stop. There is no, “It’s great for a cartoon” or, “It’s great for children,” that show is still amazing watching it live as a child and going back to rewatching it years and years later. It is very much the best portrayal of Batman on film and while half of it was the talented writing staff, but also from Kevin Conroy voicing Batman/Bruce Wayne. There was a story he told on one of the Batman discs that after 9/11, he was looking for something to do to help out. So he volunteered at a kitchen to help First Responders. One night, a group of firefighters was eating at this place and the waiter mentioned that Batman cooked their dinner. No one believed the guy and then this echoed through the kitchen and the dining room: Then one of the firefighters said, “Holy crap, it’s Batman!” He was pure excellence in this role and was always gracious towards the fans. There was never any of this trash about how fans of something were istaphobes. He was a nice and charming to us as he was his family, which led up fans demanding him in other Batman appearances spreading over 30 years. A genuine RIP for the true Dark Knight… | ||

I'll always remember him as Captain Wallace in the Tour of Duty TV series. R.I.P. Mr. Conroy “I used to be totally into Steve Vai and Joe Satriani and other shredders, and I tried to emulate what they did and really grow as a guitarist,” Mr. Hanneman said in “Louder Than Hell.” “Then I said, ‘I don’t think I’m that talented, but more important, I don’t care.’ ” | |||

This is a good tribute, as well: https://youtu.be/eYaMZuOCdl8 "I'm yet another resource-consuming kid in an overpopulated planet raised to an alarming extent by Hollywood and Madison Avenue, poised with my cynical and alienated peers to take over the world when you're old and weak!" - Calvin, "Calvin & Hobbes" | |||

Well, that blows. I have the DVD set of the animated series and really enjoy watching them again with my kids. They love them, too. It was an after school activity for me back in the day. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past me I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain. -- | |||
