"The Batman" bashers gonna love this...
 

UnderGroundOnline interviewed Sam Register, Senior Vice President of Original Animation for Cartoon Network, about WBs new show "The Batman.".
I thought this quote of him was quite mentionable:
:lol: :lol: :lol:
What an asshole!
Read the full interview here!

Wow, um... Not a good move on his part...

:lol: Classic.

good thing I'm only 18

Agreed.

Ah, I'm sure he didn't mean what he said. He probably meant 25 year-olds living in their father's basement. That guy is such a kidder!

Well, the man has a point.

He's not aiming to please the older market, he's aiming to please the younger market. So, really, if the kiddo's are happy with it (and buying the merch) why should he care what the fanboys think of it?

Yeah, but there are other ways to say that. Anyway, I'm glad he chose these words so I had a good laugh.

"The Batman" Is Gonna Suck Ewok balls

Im just gonna buy the Batman:TAS DVDs coming out in May

and I don't live in a Basement I have my own room in my mother's house thank you very much.....Good day sir!

Yeah, same here! :lol:

Exactly. He just should have been a little more diplomatic in how he said it :)

He needs to realize that it's the old fans that have the money to buy the action figures that fuel the franchise. The kids have to beg their parents, or wait for Christmas. He just cut his own throut by cutting off the real fans.

He has a point. And hopefully it'll get all of the bashers to shut the **** up already. I like that man.

I think you underestimate the power beggings kids have over their parents :) I've seen kids get alot of stuff that way when I'm in the toy stores around here.

Yep, same here.....I've even gotten stuff from my parents by begging. :lol:

When I was a kid I got toys only when it was my birthday or X-mas, begging was useless. :|

I will Bash "The Batman" Until the day I die for what they did to the Joker

Bastards..............DAMN YOUSE!!! DAMN YOUSE ALL TO HELL!!!

He's being stupid.

No, not because he's belittling part of the character's fanbase. Because he's specifically making a show with children solely in mind. He even goes so far to say that it's "not for" adults. I mean, that in itself is fine, but these days animated series have huge adult followings, especially ones based on comic books. Hell, consider all the adult-oriented animated shows coming out of the woodwork these days. It's not just a kids' game anymore.

And the merchandise? Adults buy action figures and DVDs and video games, often in much larger quantities than the kiddies - after all, adults have a little thing called "disposable income" they're not afraid to blow on an armload of toys. I can attest to that much. ;)

A smarter idea would be to create a show that appeals to both demographics - children and adults, and embrace them both. It worked rather well for the previous Batman 'toon, right?

Yea, but let's be serious.. No kid's gonna beg for those The Batman toys. Not only are the regular figures ugly, but they have the most hideous variants I've ever seen. I hated all the Batman variants when I was a kid, and I still hate them today. Kids know that Batman would NEVER wear that stuff and pisses me off!

...

I mean..them off.

Much like TMNT 2003 appeals to us, as well as the n00bs.

It' amazing what you can learn when you can translate Greedy Bastardnese into English.

But still... even if it's not for adults... he didn't need to say it like that! That's only being mean and pushing away people that might actually like it and buy their products and all that...

It was an unneccesary comment, to be sure.

Shh...It's ok JD...he'll get his in Hell.

Beginning never got me anywhere, I am 16 and it stil does not. I have to buy my stuff ad I NEVER have the money to.

Maybe he'll get a pineapple up his ass.

Re: "The Batman" bashers gonna love this...
 

You really deserve your award, dude. :lol:

It would be even nicer if he got a pineapple up his ass AND burn in Hell for eternity. I don't really care about The Batman, but I bet it would be fun to see that guy suffer.

Kids W.B only have one good cartoon on their table: Jackie Chan Adventures, Pokemon Advance was great for a while, but now it's pretty stupid.

This is not the direction Batman should go...the Joker looks like Goku for god's sake.

Meh...I only like the first season. The animation and fight scenes looked WAY better, there was NO J-TEAM CRAP and I liked Tohru as a BAD guy. He didn't have much of a personality, but, still...

Dear lord, what an asshole. I mean, this show was gonna suck before, but that's just the icing on the cake. This man clearly deserves a punishment worse than death.


-=Doom stands over Mr. Register's smouldering corpse=- Uhm....whoops....You'll have to settle for just plain old death....


....:sweatdro:

You hate him even more than Richards?

Yeah, Tohru was great.

What the hell happened to Jade? one minute she had a good romantic angle with one of the Demons in Season 2 (Which COULD have went somewhere if they continuned) and was far less annoying...now I can't stand her, I want to blow her away with a shotgun.

They also got rid of Shendu and Valmount...WHATSPWITHDAT?

I still love the series, but the first two seasons are the greatest of the show
