A TRUE TIME HONORED CLASSIC!!!🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

[milesconure]

What's this? Someone posting my ORIGINAL hyperfixation? In our year 2025!

Hallo new friend, prepare for questions.

What is your favorite episode! Or favorite non-core Titan! Is there anyone from the comics you wish the show had done?

Haha hello!! Nice to see a fellow Teen Titans fan here! :] Yeah, years have passed, but this show is going to be forever stuck in my heart! It was one of my absolute favourites during my childhood. Throught the years I kinda forgot about it, but recently I rewatched it again and the hyperfixation hit me like a truck. Let's just say, it's good to be back! :D Picking a favourite episode is definitely a difficult task, so I'll just pick few of my favourite ones! Spoiler: they're mostly centered around Robin, he's my favourite character lol

Apprentice part 2

I love both Apprentice episodes of course, but part 2 is the one that truly hits. From the epic soundtrack to the even more epic plot. Seeing Robin, forced to be Slade's apprentice, forced to fight his team for their greater good, struggle with his own inner conflict, the fear of being just like Slade. It's all just chef's kiss! Not to mention the absolute BADASS soundtrack. I think it's my favourite one from all of the Teen Titans episode. The episode is also a wonderful finale to Robin's internal conflict as he accepts the fact that he indeed is similiar to Slade, but there are still big things that make them different. The most important one is that unlike Slade, Robin has friends who always have his back. Haunted

The only thing I'm grateful for when it comes to this episode is that I didn't watch it as a kid. If Aftershock part 2 scarred me back then, this episode would leave a little me, straight up DEAD Definitely the darkest episode of the Teen Titans in my opinion. The fact that we've seen Slade beating Robin up like a ragdoll through the entire episode, only to be revealed that Slade wasn't even there this whole time is just... straight up terrifing. This was the only time I believe where we could see Robin this close to death and the worst thing is that he was the one to almost cause it. I especially think that this episode portrays the mental health issues really well, especially the gashlighting that Robin receives from the other Titans. Let's just say, I kinda relate to it. Now that I think about it, I should make a seperate post for this episode, because there are some interesting things I want to say about it, but NOT NOW LOL Sisters

RobStar is all I have to say. It was always my absolute comfort ship and I just LOVE to see Starfire and Robin interactions, how gentle and understanding Robin is for her, how he's always noticing that something is on her mind. It's literally so cute! Also seeing Starfire immediately start to struggle with her self-esteem when Blackfire visits is just heartbreaking. Not to mention it's heartbreaking to watch Starfire, this absolute sunshine, being treated so awfully by her sister. And she still kinda loves her... She deserves better :(

Fear Itself

Absolutely love this episode! Like it's dark, but it has this fun vibe and it kinda reminds me of those old Scooby-Doo cartoons, where we have the whole group of friends, trying to solve some scary mystery. I also really like the twist that all the scary stuff that was happening, the monsters, Titans' disappearing: it was all Raven who didn't want to admit that she was simply scared.

Mad Mod

This is simply just an extremely fun episode to me! I don't really have much to say here. Like, it's very lighthearted, creative and full of humor and it's one of those episodes I often put on whenever I'm bored or need to watch something during dinner. And also the villain is a British man, obsessed with England, like, what's there not to love.

Favourite non-core Titan? Like you mean what's my favourite Titan aside from the main, official five? If that's what you mean then honestly I have no idea- I never really cared that much about the other Titans and was always interested only in our main protagonists. If I had to pick then it would be someone from Titans East and maybe it would be Bumblebee, but it's more like eeeeh? Like I said, I watch the show only for the original group :'D

I'm not sure about the comics, because... I don't read the comics (I only read one). But once I saw someone saying that they wished Teen Titans made episode with Batman so we could see Robin and Batman's dynamic. It could be interesting and I would totally watch it

Thanks so much for your questions!! It was extremely fun to answer to them!! :D

DCAU Rewatch: Batman the Animated Series 2: Christmas With the Joker

Written by Eddie Gorodetsky

Directed by Kent Butterworth

Supervising Composer Shirley Walker

Music Composed by Michael McCuistion, Lolita Ritmanis

Animation Services by Akom Production Co.

It’s a quiet Christmas Eve  and it looks like there may be no need for Batman for just one night. But the Clown Prince of Prime, freshly escaped from Arkham Asylum, has other plans.

This is a real clunker of an episode that sits particularly strangely when watched in production order. I appreciate some of its charm more now than I did a decade ago but it is incongruous with BTAS as a whole. The episode’s shortcomings on a story level are made worse by AKOM Productions. It’s a studio notorious for how poorly they do their work. They animated most of the 90s X-Men Animated Series, which looks almost uniformly awful, as well as some of the strangest-looking episodes of early Simpsons.  This episode is just not pleasant to look at. Characters are never on model and are inconsistently drawn from shot-to-shot. 

It is probably not ideal to watch this one so early in the run because it is the first introduction to a lot of characters including Joker and Robin. It’s not a strong debut for either one. Like Conroy, Mark Hamill is feeling out his performance as the Joker and he is a far cry from the iconic take he settles into. Part of it may be that this episode, and several of the Joker’s early appearances, required Hamill to re-record the already animated scenes after Tim Curry was recast and his performance scrapped. Some of the choices, particularly the lack of his completely unhinged cackle, may be constraints of the previous performance. 

Aside from the animation, which is a big thing to set aside, my qualms revolve around the overly slapstick and broad approach to the Joker. The core of his plot, capturing Gordon, Bullock and Summer Gleeson to turn them into a twisted family, is classic Joker. But I wish the episode had focused more on the hostages and tormenting them, as opposed to revealing that Joker has access to secret rocket-powered Christmas trees and enough weapons of mass destruction to topple an empire. It completely falls outside of the tone of what the show turns into. You can tell the whole production team is trying to figure out how to balance the broader superhero tropes and villains with the more grounded elements. 

But when you just sit back and let the absurdity of the fully armed tin soldiers and impossible squadron of tanks wash over you, there’s a lot to enjoy. It’s a good showcase for the animated Joker’s personality, which is equal parts genuinely funny and frightening psychopath. It’s a take that I miss seeing anymore.

For more, including initial impressions of BTAS Robin and production facts, take the plunge into the Turtle Club Patreon.

Stay tuned for more DCAU commentary! And if you are curious about what to expect from this series, the first entry for episode 1 of Batman: The Animated Series, On Leather Wings, is free as a preview.

Together, they have collectively earned twenty-eight Emmy Award nominations and six Annie Award nominations as composers for Marvel’s Avengers Assemble, Batman: The Brave And The Bold, Justice League, Teen Titans, Batman Beyond, The Zeta Project and The New Batman Superman Adventures. One of their most recent projects has been writing original music for the Marvel animated special: MARVEL RISING: CHASING GHOSTS.

Premiering on January 16, 2019 on the Marvel HQ Youtube channel, MARVEL RISING: CHASING GHOSTS is a 22-minute, animated special. Marvel Rising series is a mini-series franchise, which debuted in 2018 and is produced by Marvel Animation based on characters from Marvel Comics. The series focuses on a diverse team of teenage superheroes, known as the Secret Warriors, who band together to defend the world against various threats. CHASING GHOSTS follows Ghost-Spider who teams up with the Secret Warriors to bring down the villains Sheath and Exile once and for all.  

In this episode, the Dynamic Music Partners walk us through their scoring process for Chasing Ghosts. They discuss how being involved in the ground-breaking project ended up influencing the sound of their score. Finally, Michael McCuistion, Lolita Ritmanis and Kristopher Carter reveal how they approached writing music for the characters and environments and how they are very intentional in their "musical manipulation" throughout.

Batman: The Brave & the Bold premiered 16 years ago today on Cartoon Network!!!

So here’s my favorite song from the series!!!😁😍🤩

[erb23]

I almost forgot how much I loved the Music Meister episode of Brave and the Bold. I’d suggest that entire series to anyone, but especially that episode. I’m a sucker for theatrics.

Grey Griffin is just such a good singer, and getting Neil Patrick Harris to do more musical-esque songs is always a plus!

DCAU Rewatch: Batman the Animated Series 81: Harley's Holiday

Harley Quinn has been declared sane and is released from Arkham Asylum but reintegrating into society does not go smoothly for the manic exvillain. Credits Written by Paul Dini Directed by Kevin Altieri Music Composed by Lolita Ritmanis Animation by Dong Yang Animation Co., LTD. It would be easy for this episode to go broad and silly and focus on the comedy angle—to be blunt, to be more…

[noirbeduzz]

لَيّلَةُ أمْسٍ أوّلُ ليّلَةٍ بَارِدةٍ وأوّلُ لَيّلَةّ لِمِعطَفِي الأسَوَد الطَوِيل، مِعطَفُ الخَنادِق، مِعطَفُ البَحّارَة، مِعطَفُ القَتَلَة المُتسلّسلين والمُحَقّقينَ، سِمّه كمَا تَوّدُ تَسمِيَتَه، هوَ أكثَرُ مِن مُجرّدِ مِعطَفٍ عادِيّ، أنتَظرُ كُلّ عامٍ الشِتاءَ بِلهفةٍ لِأجله، هوَ في عَيّني قِطْعَةً فَريدَةٌ مِنَ الليّلِ، وجُزءًا من ظُلُمَاتِها ..

بِهِ أُحاكِي، أتمَاشَى مَعْ ظُلمَةِ الليّلِ، مَع ظِلالُ الشَوارِع مُنتصَفَ الليّلِ، بِهِ أُتَجْلّى لِمَنزِلَةِ الليّلِ .. بِهِ أضمَدُ شُروخَ روحيَ، أو سِتَارٌ للسَوَادِ القَابِعَ في داخِلي، مِنّ أفكَارٍ، ويَأسٍ، وحُزنٍ، وفُقدَانِ الإيمانِ .. هوَ ليّسَ مُجرّدُ قِطعةٍ قُماشِيّة، بَلُّ جُزءًا من جَسَدِي، طَبَقةٌ مُضاعَفَة مِن جِلدي، قِطعةٌ مُرقّعةٌ لٍروحي المُمَزّقَة.

يَبْدو أن الفَاصِلَ الخَريّفِي البَسيطِ بَيّنَ الصَيّفِ والشِتَاء قد آنَ بالانْقِشَاعِ مِثَل ضَبابِ الفَجْر هذهِ الأيّامِ، سِرتُ شَوارِع البَلدةِ ليّلَةُ أمسٍ، بعدَ هُطولِ أمطَارٍ غَزيرةٍ، بَلّلَت الشَوَارِع، حامِلَةٍ أخبَارًا بِقُدومِ فَترةُ الشِتاءِ وانقضِاءِ الخَريفِ، مُنادِيًّا؛ بإنّ الَّذِي يعيشُ وحيدًا سَيَظَلُّ وحيدًا وعلَيّهِ اللجوءَ لجُيوبِ مِعطَفِه لِتَدفِئَةِ رُوحِه، والفَقيرُ سَيُعانِي ويُناجِي رَبّه دُونَ مَعرفَةِ ما إنّ كانَ يَسمَعُه أو يَتجاهَلَه ..

سِرتُ الليّلَ حَامِلاً أفكاري ومَخاوِفِي مِثلَ جِبالِ هذهِ البَلّدَةِ المَشْؤومَةِ، يُغطّيها سَوادُ مِعطفي، المُمَوّهَةُ مع حُلْكَةِ الليّلِ البَارِد. في السَنواتِ المَاضِيَةِ، كانَ السيّر لَيّلاً مَهرَبًا فَعّالاً لِكُلٍ ما يُعذِّبُني في دَاخِلي، أمّا الآن، الأمْرُ مُختَلِفٌ تَمَامًا، ومُخيفٌ جِدًا ..

إذّ يَبدو أن تِلك الأفكارَ والمَخاوِفَ باتَت مُتجَذّرِةٌ مِثلَ العَفَنِ الأسَوَد، وأصبَحَت مُتشَعّبَةٌ في كُلّ رُكْنٍ من داخِلي، أخوضُ صِراعًا وُجودِيًّا دَاخِلَ عَقلي، وفي كُلّ خُطوَةٍ يَنمو الصِراع، وتَنمو معهُ رغبةٌ بالبُكاءِ.

أسيرُ وأرى سِماتُ الحَياةِ والنَاسَ يَعيشُونَها بعدَ نهايةِ اليومِ، فَأزيحَ رأسي وأردّدُ؛ "نَحنُ لا نَنتمي للحَياةِ، نحنُ المَلاعين نَنتمِي للعالمِ السُفليّ." أرى فَتاةً جَميلةً خَلّفَ زُجاجِ المَقهى، فلا أطمْعُ حتّى لِرُؤيتها، إذّ أن المُنتمي للقاعِ لا يَجِبُ أن يُخيّفَ جَميلةٌ كهذهِ ولوّ بِنَظرةٍ.

أسيرُ وعَناصِرُ البُوليسُ تُهدّئ مِن سُرعتها بجانِبي، كيّ تَتفحَص هذا الكَيانَ الأسْوَد، فَرُبما يكونُ تهديدٌ أو مَطلوبٌ، ولكَنّها لا تُدرك المُتعَطّشَة لمُعاقَبَةِ المُخطِئين، أنّ ذَلِك الكيانُ السَائر مجرّدُ جَسَدٍ بلا روحٍ. يأمَلَ مِنَ الليّلِ أن يُواسِيه.

كُنت أظَنّ بأنَّ السَيّرُ ليلاً هُو عِلاجٌ فَعّال، فالّليلُ أعتبَرَهُ طَبيبيَ النَفسِيّ، ورَفيقِي، ولكنّ حتّى اللّيلُ عَجَزَ أو لِنَقُل، قدّ يَأسَ من مُجَاراتِي، وَفَقَدَ الأمَل، ورُبما هَجَرنِي، إذّ أصبَحتُ أعودُ للبَيّت برأسٍ أثْقَل، وأكثَرُ رغبةٍ بالبُكاءِ.

تَبقّى شَهرٌ وعَشر أيامٍ على سُقوطِ القِطعة السَادِسَةِ والعِشرينِ من رُوحي، لازِلتُ أنتظَرَ في نفسِ المَحطّةِ، بنفسِ الحُلّةِ والحَقيبةِ، بنفسِ التَذكِرَة القديمَة منذُ خمسةِ أعوامٍ، ولا شَيّءَ حتى الآن، يُخيفُنِي كَثيرَا هذا اللاَشَيّء ..

إذّ بَدأت تُراوِدني رَغبَاتٌ بالَقفْزِ على سِكّةُ القِطارِ، خَمسَةُ أعوامٍ غابٍرة، عدمٌ، فراغ، رُحتُ فيها بيدقًا، وضَحيّةً لٍقراراتٍ سَاذَجَة مِن قِبَل الأكَابِر، لِأنانيّتِهم، مُكلّفٌ بتحمّلِ هروبِهٍم من أخطائهم. وكأنّني أُعاقَبُ الآن بالنيابةِ عنهم.

أنَا البَدْرَ، كَمَا سَمّتني العَزيزةُ أمْي، رَفيقُ اللّيْلَ الأبَدِيّ، وَلا يُعْرَفُ الليّلَ بِظُلُماتِها إلا مِنّ خِلالِ ضِيائي. كُلّ جُزءٍ مِنّا مُكَمّلٌ لِبعضِنِا، أَتَشَرّبُ ظُلماتِها بٍكُلّ شَغفٍ، كما تَتشَرّبً هيَ مِن ضيائي مِثَل أشْبَاحَ المَاضِي، كيّ تَبَثّهُ للعَوَالِم الأخرى.

إذَا كَانَ للّيّلِ جَوهرةٌ تَتألقُ بِها مَع حُلتها السوداء السَاحِرَة، فهو البَدْر، وإذا كانَ للبَدّرِ ظِلالٌ يَتشَكّلُ وٍفقَ حاجِتِهِ، فهيَ الليّلُ، فتارةٌ مِعطِفٌ يَتزمّلُ بِه، أو نُصُلٌ حادٌ يَمزّقُ بِه كُلّ شَيءٍ في الوجودِ.

MusiCares® COVID-19 Relief Fund was created by MusiCares® to provide support to the music community during the pandemic crisis. The music industry has been essentially shut down with the cancellation of music performances, events, festivals, conferences and the many other live events that are the cornerstone of the shared music experience. Since the fund's establishment in March, over 14,000 clients have been served, with many more still needing help.

Show co-creator Peter Rotter says: "When the pandemic tragically hit our world and began to shut down our film music community, I felt that something needed to be done to help those who were in need of support and care. Through MusiCares® we have found the charitable vehicle that can come alongside our hurting musical family.

"Music has always played a role in history; reflecting both the subtle and monumental moments of our lives through its unique DNA. Music connects each of us, acting as a common thread of unification, opening the hearts of all people.

"Regardless of the color of one's skin, status or station in life, music powerfully breaks through boundaries as its message permeates deep within us; healing our human frailties and condition at our cores. Music is transformative and personal. It powerfully underscores our lives."

"Music has always helped transport, uplift and inspire us through wars, economic hardships, health crises and societal upheavals," says show co-creator, Richard Kraft. "When COVID-19 hit, it threatened the lives and livelihood of much of our Film & TV Music community. So, we decided to create an online special that both celebrates the soundtrack of our lives and benefits, via MusiCares®, the artists who create it."
