scans_dailyI thought I'd share some Batman and Robin animation I had somehow never seen before.
Note the subtle and effective use of lip synching, the devotion to an almost photorealistic style of animation that surely is years ahead of it's time...
Also note the clever way that entire scenes are reworked
And for legality, and because we're in a Batman and toy frame of mind, a cover which has a toy pack I would trample over nuns to get!(Gotham Adventures #3 art by Ty Templeton)
Robin approves of his new babysitter, but wait until he tries staying up past his bedtime. (Gotham Adventures #52 art by Bob Smith and Terry Beatty)
And since Tim is clearly a growing boy he had to borrow one of Dick's old pairs of leggings (DCAU Tim never wore green leggings, but from the looks of this, he should have done) (Gotham Adventures #57 art by Bob Smith and Terry Beatty)
Oh, and since I'm going to be away this weekend at a family function (a new niece being Christened) a nice little image of optimism and hope for the future, with a slightly different take on Calvin and Hobbes which I find rather sweet (artist unknown)
I still say that this should have been the theme of Toy Story 2. We'd have found out that the reason Andy had a pristine and very old Woody toy was that he had belonged to Andy's (now deceased) Dad. And when the toy restorer discovered Andy's name on Woody, he'd have found an older name underneath, and uncovering the older name would restore Woody's memories of his first owner (A toy is loyal to their owner, but forgets about them when they have a new name added on top)
