Old man Bruce is the only reason Batman Beyond was popular. Prove

>>91504684

Terry is overrated. Only the the batman beyond costume was great about him.

>the villains are actually threatening because they're spliced or chromed up
>who is terry
Old bruce was just the cherry on top

>>91504684
if it was set a it further in the future and replaced him with old man Dick it still would have worked

>>91504684
Terry was a great antithesis to Bruce. He could be naive, hot blooded, and even sometimes a little ruthless, but he had much more empathy the Bruce.

It was just an overall solid show.

Old Bruce without Terry would be better than Terry without Old Bruce, but they need each other. Terry was a better counter-point than any of the Robins had been.

I want a BB movie just to see what a big budget movie could do with the sound design with him.

The show did it amazingly well but i just wanna see what happens if you throw like 15 years of improvements and a shit load of money and need to make normies like a villain that uses sound.

>>91505113
LOL, you're kidding, right?

Beyond's villains weren't very good aside from Blight(revamped Phosphorous) and Inque(rule 63 Clayface). Beyond was still a good show and I love it. But it's villains just doesn't compare to the original Batman rogue gallery, in fact the best moments are when they showed up, like Freeze and Joker.

>>91504684
Old man Bruce was amazing, I learned more about aging and the impact it has on people. Batman being old was really something that put things into perspectice for me as a kid.

Also the villians were cool as fuck, Derek Powers was really fucking cool.

Muh Blight,, muh dangers of radioactivity.
And the Inque episode was creepy as fuck.

>>91505150
I actually liked that in a way. Look at Terry's success rate compared to Bruce's. Most of Terry's biggest threats never plagued the city when he beat them.

It goes back to when Bruce tried to make Terry feel bad for indirectly making Blight, and his response was basically "He was already an awful person, I don't feel bad at all."

>>91505150
And that is why Terry is best boy.

Terry fucked over his go, fucked over his friends, mutilated or caused the deaths of multiple villains, and destroyed a schwey car, fuck Terry.

Batman Beyond made me like Harley Quinn quite a bit, since it gave us the surprisingly rare instance of a villain actually realizing that being a villain sucks and quitting altogether.

It's a shame Harley Quinn nowadays won't ever revisit that idea and will continue to be a quirky floozie for the Joker forever.

TAS had an episode where Harley realized Joker is an ass, and another where she tries to live as a civilian but fucks up. Great use of her character before the show changed channels and they needed Harley to be Ivy's fuck buddy.

>>91510862
Bruce was an old and jaded man by that point and probably knew it was best to leave well enough alone

>>91504684
Old Man Bruce was the weakest character in the show. He got his ass handed to him by Inque while in the power armor, his prefrontal cortex has deteriorated so much that Terry is able to solve crimes before he can, not to mention he acts like he's above everyone and he doesn't care that he's alone while still looking at memories of all the potential happy lives he could've had.

Also, the first season is so much better than the second season, when they had to force Maxine Gibson and "moral of the day" episodes into the plot. Batman Beyond got people's attention by being cyberpunk to compliment TAS' film-noir setting. Terry as a character is engaging because he views the role of Batman as a punishment and a mantle of atonement for failing his father, whereas Bruce always wore the mantle as vengeance for his parents' deaths. That difference in attitude alone, beyond how Terry is a sarcastic jackass to oppose Bruce's stoic demeanor, is enough to make the show interesting.

>>91510668
Beyond was a fairly deep show for its time and it's a shame it only lasted three seasons

>>91506185
Terry wasn't responsible for all of them dying or getting fucked up. Lots of it ended up being self inflicted or unintentional. Trust me, if one villain managed to stand out and stay popular, they would have asspulled a way for them to show up again

>>91512095
Inque was like that, for example.

Honestly she probably came closest to killing Terry the most.

Bruce can and has solved crimes that Terry has been investigating without even leaving the cave. His body is nearly toast but his mind is still sharp.

>>91512056
>Old Man Bruce was the weakest character in the show
Writing or ability? I think he was well written for the reasons you mentioned, but he was also poor physical shape for good reasons too. He would have gotten more concussions than a football player, and would have been a vegtable by 50

>>91504684
It was pretty much a Spider-Man show, about Spider-Man. Bruce is the only thing that made it slightly not Spider-Man.

I still think Dick Fury was one of the best things about the Beyond comics.

I miss Beyond 2.0.

Why couldnt rebirth bring that back?

I miss Kyle and Higgins. They had it all perfectly nailed, right down to how to design a Beyond Villain, instead of what DC was doing BEFORE 2.0, which was LITERALLY Catwoman Beyond and Hush Beyond.

although I will admit, Joe Chill's descendant becoming a vigilante was something I thought was interesting. dumb, they didnt need to drag Joe Chill back into this, but it was interesting as a twist.

>>91504684

Old Bruce would have been shit without Terry and vice versa.

If Terry was just doing the naive Batman stuff without Bruce then it'd feel like every other random pass the mantle show. Bruce mentoring him offset that.

They are part and parcel of the reason it was good.

Plus villains that were actually interesting and fun. That's a major part of it.

To be fair, Inque routinely manhandled Terry while he was suited up in pretty much every one of her appearances. She was arguably his most dangerous villain.
