School Dayz

I was excited when I saw that this DVD was going to be released. Just got my copy. I thought that all should know that there are 6 episodes on the disc. Great! Here is the reason for the three stars. 3 of the episodes were previously released on the Batman Beyond the Movie DVD as follows: Golem Deadmans Hand The Winning Edge. I do recommend the disc to anyone, but wanted to forwarn all consumers that if they already have the movie, you are really only getting 3 more episodes.

I loved this series, and was always disappointed when they were pre-empted by "Pokemon". "Batman Beyond" is for adults, and perhaps that is why the WB is marketing "Justice League" differently. For some reason, the geniuses in the WB marketing department think that consumers will be more inclined to buy "features" instead of episodic cartoons. PLEASE NOTE that there are 6 episodes of the cartoon on this dvd, not two features, and that several of these episodes were previously released on the "Batman Beyond: The Movie" dvd.. Darwyn Cooke is GAWD. Check out "dc: the new frontier".

For the sake of clarification, the two "titles" on this DVD (School Daze and Spellbound) were previously released separately on video, and are combined together on one DVD. Each video contained 3 episodes of the original Batman Beyond show. As such, this DVD contains 6 episodes : SPELLBOUND / HOOKED UP / A TOUCH OF CURARE / GOLEM / THE WINNING EDGE / DEAD MAN'S HAND. I think this DVD is aimed at two audiences - as a low priced DVD for the kids, as well as for adults who enjoyed the show. I personally would prefer a box set containing every episode, but how many parents would buy that for their kids? Putting the episodes out this way gets both audiences to buy the DVD. This disc contains no extras, but there is a "play all" feature. Picture looks great, but no subtitles, and only one audio choice. Still, I give it 4 stars as I feel 6 episodes for the low price is fair.

Batman beyond is possibly my favorite Batman ever. To me it mixes Spiderman personality with Batman's tools and money. This new Batman isn't wealthy, but he is tied to Bruce Wayne who supplies both resources and intelligence. I won't spend too much time here, because you're better off just buying season one . This was one of a set of two DVDs which was released by Warner Bros. prior to releasing the whole first season. In my opinion, it was a cash grab. I ended up with two of these as a gift because I didn't know they'd ever put the whole season out and I'd rather have the whole season. If you get this DVD and Tech Wars , then you have almost every first season episode, except the pilot, Mr. freeze, and the one where Blight ends up bottom of the ocean. You also end up with a couple episodes of season two. I give this a decent score because the episodes are still great, but in just about every way, you're better off buying season one instead.

Let me start out by saying I love the series Batman Beyond. This DVD is crap six random episodes are on this thing churned out by Warner Bros to make a quick buck. For less than twice the price of this DVD you can buy the whole 1st season of Batman Beyond. Save your money and boycott these quick cash garbage DVDs.

This is an excellent video. It relies on realistic (however sometimes ...) depictions of high school life. It shows the lives of those who were picked on in school, the drug problems with teenagers and the ever-wonderful, tragic love story.

It contains great episodes of the newest Batman and love the characters and am glad I got it.

It's an understatement that many of us feel ripped off by WB's attempt to unfairly empty our wallets. If we refuse to buy these horribly priced episode dvds and at the same time purchase the available box sets that are of value then we can make some headway. They are in the business of making $$$. Slowing their cash flow will force them to give us consumers' products we demand or risk losing our disposable income. Die-hard fans of this series and other series must convince every parent to withhold from purchasing these dvds until full seasons are made available.
