Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 1

Dear Hollywood, let Zak Snyder make the live action version of this that he wants to, but then cast Nick Nolte as Batman. You'll thank me later. The voice work in this goes from great to god awful LIKE THAT. *fingah snap

It's a bit of a shame the narration is removed in this animated version of the classic-kicking-off-the-dark-'n-gritty-period-in-all-of-comics-comic since it gives Old Halfcrazy Batman some more context, but this more streamlined version definitely does a nice job with the rest of the material. I loved how this felt like an 80's vigilante action movie (thanks for that, cool soundtrack!) and I'm now regretting not immediately watching part 2 afterwards.

Never has Batman's VOICE been more badass.

the animation is terrible and Frank Miller is an idiot
