Possible Upcoming DC Animated Movies Include BATMAN/TMNT Crossover And SWAMP-THING

*Autbot_Benz* · 10-13-2016, 01:58 AM

Warner Bros. has stuck pretty much solely to Batman and Justice League related animated features in recent years, but it seems as if the success of Batman: The Killing Joke and the recently released Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders may have opened the door to some slightly riskier ventures from the studio. That's according to WGTC as they're reporting that moviegoers who paid to see the studio's latest animated release earlier this week were handed a very interesting survey.

On that, they were presented with a list of possible upcoming releases and asked how interested they would be in each of them. That's clearly a way of guaging interest in the movies by Warner Bros.

Among those mentioned were a Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover, a Wonder Woman '77 movie (presumably with Lynda Carter voicing the titular hero), and Swamp-Thing, a character who will soon get the spotlight in the Justice League Dark animated feature. That's an interesting mixture, and while there's nothing to say any of them will happen, it's entirely possible that any or all of these movies could end up on Warner Bros. Animations 2018 slate. What do you guys think of them?

Maybe its going to be an animated version of the Nick TMNT/Batman crossover comic coming out soon.

*Powder* · 10-13-2016, 05:34 AM

Any TMNT animation is fine by me. Bring it on.

A Batman/TMNT animated film is a definite win.

Hopefully not, I'd much rather the first one. We need some idw animated

Batman/TMNT could perhaps open the DVD floodgates for a proper 2k3 release if it is successful enough.

*TheSkeletonMan939* · 10-13-2016, 09:14 AM

Figures that it would take the goddamn Batman for us to get proper 2k3 DVD releases!
Or even better, maybe it could convince the powers-that-be that some TMNT DTVs would be profitable.

It seems like everything but the show and movies of TMNT is aimed at adults.

Come on Nick, we ain't greedy. We just want it all

Not a fan of a Batman/TMNT crossover but I am a fan if it's new designs and 2D animated turtles.

*Wildcat* · 10-13-2016, 11:21 PM

Have not read the comic but Id definitely like to see this.

Give us a green bat mobile that can launch pizza

*CyberCubed* · 10-13-2016, 11:28 PM

A Batman/TMNT crossover would likely be about the IDW Turtles. I wouldn't be surprised if its a straight animated adaption of the 6 issue mini-series they did.

*sdp* · 10-14-2016, 02:35 PM

I hope it's true and it wouldn't surprise me if the upcoming Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers crossover with Justice League was also made into a movie. DC is desperate to be relevant and while I love it even if it makes no sense I don't see how crossing over with 90s has beens is going to change that.

*Allio* · 10-14-2016, 02:40 PM

Don't know, Toei is very against the idea of animated Power Rangers, they shut down Disney at every turn.

may allah bless us with a tmnt/batman & swamp thing animated film

Disney wanted to replace PRs with an animated version this would be a one off thing made by DC. Besides we don't know much about this besides a few things here and there from the animated deal that TOEI refused, remember the PRs fandom is always full of stuff people repeat over and over without actual sources like A friend in need being skipped for a reason and that we'd never see the TMNT episodes on DVD and whatnot that have always been proven wrong.

*Sage Ninja* · 10-14-2016, 03:33 PM

I'd love to see an animated cross over between Batman and the Turtles. Seeing the turtles in 2D animated form again would be sweet. I know it would be unlikely but i would love to see Mirage turtles paired up with Batman instead of IDW. But that's probably unlikely.

I'm psyched that they are considering a 77 Wonder Woman animated movie. That would be so sweet! They already sort of tackled a Linda Carter type of Wonder Woman in Batman: Brave and the Bold :

I hate to say this but gritty/serious iterations of Wonder Woman tend to fall flat on their face. They always make her out to be some xenophobic, hypocritical bitch, in their desire to make her some tough as nails Xena clone badass warrior. The new 52 version is all about war. Funny how that wasn't what she was about originally. Look how she is portrayed in the 2009 movie?

A few days ago after seeing the trailers for the 60's batman I was wondering if they could do an authentic 40's Golden Age Wonder Woman. I would love to see that, set in the world war era with Etta Candy and the Holiday girls. Woo Woo! But i guess 77 Linda Carter WW will do.

why can't we have nice things?

*TigerClaw* · 10-14-2016, 05:26 PM

I'm all for a Batman/TMNT animated movie, But if they do it, chances are it will be with the Nick TMNT rather then the IDW version.

We saw how well that crossover with the 80s and Nickelodeon TMNT was like, So I could see something along those lines, Where we see the Nickelodeon TMNT in CGI, but as soon as they cross over into the Batman TAS universe, it will be in the 2D art style of it.

*Sage Ninja* · 10-15-2016, 09:23 AM

I hope that is not the case. I don't care for Nick turtles at all, and tonally speaking I feel Mirage or IDW would fit batman better.

TMNT_Guy · 10-15-2016, 10:35 AM

I'd rather see Adam West Batman crossover with the Fred Wolf Turtles. If Return of the Caped Crusaders is anything to go by, then it could be a lot of fun.
