Yeah, I'm not too fond of The Batman. I am, however, probably one of the few people who likes the character being preceded by the definite article, as it is what he was called in the 1943 serial. For some reason it just sounds cooler to me. But, anyway, the animation of The Batman just looks weird. Bruce Wayne/The Batman's head looks kinda deformed. And it just lacks the darkness and feeling of importance that the original Animated Series had. I feel sorry for today's kids sometimes.

It's a step up from The Batman, but when they had the animation change for the original animated series, most of the characters ended up coming out like they'd been put through the wringer. I think the only character who still looked cool was Batman himself... maybe even slightly cooler, but it's debatable. Everyone else, especially The Joker and every female character, just looked disgusting in comparison to their early-to-mid '90s version.
