Robot Chicken really knows how to do subtle nostalgia
So I was watching the latest episode, can watch it here, and the part that really got me was Arkham Redemption. Soon as I heard the Joker I thought it was awesome, and a moment later I realized why
|
Being a fan of RC, I can say that Seth Green and Matt Senreich (I know I misepelled his name) are two intelligent guys - Seth is a recipticle of pop culture through out the ages. Watching the series DVD's and listening to the commentary is, while not the intellectual oasis in the desert of life, a fun listen as they often pull their voice actors - McCauly Culkin, Danny Goldman (Brainy Smurf in the original Smurfs cartoon), as well as the cast from the newer Scooby Doo flicks, and Phylis Diller - to name a few.

Plus Mark Hammil. They should just reinvest in a new Batman cartoon and hire Kevin Conroy as well. Really bring back the good old days.
|
Slightly unrelated, but Mark Hamil is also doing Joker for the new Batman: Arkahm Asylum, and he sounds fantastic.
|
what I alluded to, my actual thoughts while watching that
HOLY CRAP The Joker sounds awesome I wonder who... oh right Mark Hammil is a VA for this show. No wonder it fits so perfectly Mark Hammil is really one of the few voice actors that could do half a dozen of the characters on a show, and you couldn't even tall. Honestly I listen to any two people he did the voice for and cant tell its the same guy |
Arkham Asylum is going to have Kevin Conroy as Batman, as well. I do sincerely hope it has good gameplay to go along with the production values, although the new trailer leaves me with some horrible feelings it may be a beat 'em up. Which isn't too terrible, as long as it's a really good beat 'em up, I suppose...

Old NPF Arkham Asylum thread
IGN Article This Batman is going to have a few detective elements to it, as well as some brawling. It looks to be a really well rounded game, but since this is all my opinion after reading a few magazine articles, I'll have to find them online. |

Also they do seem to know how to treat their Batman fans...now if only we could get a good Spider-Man voice actor *cough*WebofShadows*cough* |
Whoever they had doing Morgan Freeman was damn good, as I didn't see his name listed in the credits when I saw that the other night. But if it was him, awesome.

I know for Family Guy it's a writer by the name of John Viener, and Alex Borstein asked if Viener did Freeman on RC, but Seth remarked that it was a guy who did Michael Cain. In there Batman spoof March Of THe Penguin, Both Seth Green and Matt Senreich thought someone was joking with them and that Morgan Freeman had actually auditioned.
