Let me tell you, they did a GREAT job adapting this story. If I have any regrets, it's that it's a two-part film. Wish they'd just made it feature length, but it's well done.

I really cannot wait for this because The Dark Knight Returns is one of my favorite comic book stories. I think this could be one of the best DC animated movies ever.

You Britts don't get the Avengers on DVD until mid next month? I'm in New Zealand and it was released here today. Picked it up on 3D blu-ray and it is SWEET!!! Anyways, I have been wanting a faithful adaption, animated or live action, of The Dark Knight returns ever since I read it over 10 years ago. From the clips they've shown so far, it does look incredibly faithful. Has it been announced who's voicing the joker yet? Had a bit of a smile on my face when they used the "you're in for a show kid" line in The Dark Knight Rises. I still would love to see an epic live action version of it one day. Give Hugh Jackman a few more years and I reckon he'd make a great aged Bruce Wayne / Batman.
