Batman Animatrix?
Set in the period between BATMAN BEGINS and THE DARK KNIGHT, this brand new adventure follows BATMAN as he unravels a mystery over six original stories done in the style of Japanese Anime. Each of the six original stories has been written by a highly respected screenwriter or comic book creator. The talent includes Academy Award nominee Josh Olsen (The History of Violence), screenwriter of the BLADE films and BATMAN BEGINS David Goyer, and famed comic book writer Brian Azzarello, among others. The Batman Anime DVD is viewed as a perfect companion piece to BATMAN BEGINS and THE DARK KNIGHT. The original stories introduce a number of classic characters from the DC Comics BATMAN universe as well as following up on characters and storylines that were introduced in BATMAN BEGINS.
I've got to say that I am COMPLETELY there, as the Animatrix was the only decent 'sequel' that the Matrix movies spawned. I've watched the first movie several times; same with the animated short stories that followed, but I have yet to see the sequels again since I saw them originally in the cinema. I was talking to Ryan about this and they've got to be some of the most anticipated movie sequels ever (after maybe Star Wars) and the single biggest disappointments ever (I'd say more than Star Wars because I actually liked the Phantom Menace).
See, i like Anime...but when tradition American's try to go Japanese Anime, i cringe with fear because they just don't seem to get it most of the time. High hopes for this though. Everything about this new Batman starting with Begins has been amazing.

i think it will be very interesting to see a japanese animed batman. but nothing will be good as bruce timms batman, that show was the best animed series i had ever seen in my life. so i hope that the batman/anime can at least get on the same level of batman the animated series from the 90s. oh and i extremely looking forward for the dark knight movie, batman begins was bad ass, and i hope the dark knight is even better. and joker looks fucking awsome.
I really love batman and other heroe thingys. I will/want to stay the hole day in the movie theater to see it. The Joker also looks cool, I have two 2008 movie posters of him! I am directing my own batman film too! I am also making a full-blown comic book with at least 400 pages, only because I don't have other notebooks and computer paper, thank you to christopher nolan, I can finally enjoy the batman:dark knight!
