Ep. 147 – Batman Beyond – Sneak Peek

As we continue with our month of Batman Beyond reviews, we come to an oft-forgotten episode titled “Armory” which asks the age-old question, “What would you do to keep your lavish lifestyle intact, after losing your job due to corporate downsizing?” Okay, so maybe that’s not that much of an age-old question, but never fear because the Good Brothers are here to answer it anyway! Hear Cal and Liam discuss a plot complete with outdated technology and gender roles, what would make the average person go from zero to treason in no time, featuring a main-baddie that doesn’t talk which allows for action and music to be brought to the forefront. Plus the hosts list the voice cast, making an argument for a surprising addition to the DCAU Mt. Rushmore of voice-actors, and discuss #MyWarMachine(?!?) making his voice heard as Armory. All of this, more talk about Terry forgetting the suit’s invisibility, and much more on this week’s all-new DCAU Review!

Ep. 145 – Batman Beyond – The Last Resort

Episode 145 of the DCAU Review is here and the Good Brothers are continuing to review Batman Beyond with the next episode “The Last Resort.” Cal and Liam discuss the message behind this plot which focuses on a cult-like leader’s choice to abuse teenagers through an internment camp-like facility. The hosts talk about a variety of ways the story might have been more effective, the logic of Terry not using the invisibility function on his suit, Terry’s odd physical interaction with Chelsea, another inductee to the “Worst Dads in the DCAU” club, and a pair of voice performances from two actors from a pair of the most popular sitcoms of the last 40 years. Additionally, the hosts discuss why the biggest threat of the episode went unexplored, Bruce’s limited appearance for the second straight week, and preview next week’s episode on this week’s DCAU Review!

Plus, praise for one excellent sequence that would fit in any version of the Dark Knight, Max as Batman’s partner, speculation as to why one notable voice was cast as a character without dialogue and the hosts share their thoughts on whether the ending is satisfying for the Curare character or not.
