Mordhaussays...This should have been a cinema release. I am in awe.
Mordhaussays...*quality
siftbotsays...Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by Mordhaus.
mxxconsays...Interesting idea, but Kevin Conroy did not voice this batman and Mark Hamill did not voice this Joker, so it's not the real thing.
ChaosEnginesays...I've seen a bunch of articles on the internet saying "Finally! an english language trailer for this!"
Is it really that hard to read subtitles? Personally, I think the Japanese version sounds way cooler.
I'm not a big anime fan (I've seen Akira and Ghost in the Shell and that's it). Tried to watch the new Godzilla on netflix and the english voiceover was just awful. Japanese dialogue doesn't work in english.
newtboysays...But isn't the awful dubbing 1/2 of what makes Godzilla movies so fun? It certainly makes kung fu movies better.

siftbotsays...Moving this video to ant's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
jmdsays...But that is because the movie is so bad to begin with. I hate dubs with a passion because most often the voice does not match the actor like originally intended by the director. Also in the case of japan animations, voice acting is a highly competitive career market over there which means there are many top tier actors to choose from. Liscensed dubs on the other hand deal with a lot of frequently contracted actors in a market that isn't bursting with talent.
Also the plot of this animation seems pretty ridiculous. I would have let the batman and joker pass but when everyone else in the batman universe, even the god damn butler, showes up I was like

newtboysays...Says you. ;-)
I've always been entertained by kaiju movies (until sci-fi channel got involved), in large part because of the terrible dialog and dubbing, but also the dead pan seriousness. When they have tried to be silly, like Godzilla Jr, it always fell flat for me.
As for kung fu, I feel that the bad dialogue adds a needed comedy element often otherwise missing. I thought Kung Pow was hilarious and inventive because of intentionally terrible dubbing.
I do agree, this bastardization has some glaring issues...that doesn't mean it can't still be fun.
