Watch our in-channel storyline from the beginning! ru-vid.com/group/PLZ1WxFp2AMZPw6qflnpLXeGmxL6oviqyM (Note: this video is BY FAR not the final “Will It Canon?” or the last time we’ll hyper-analyze something...cool ya jets)

VERY NICE going on the the 91939 combination XD just recently watched the episode again! :) also... what do you mean we will regret having asked for this? O_o this is awesome! :) ... sure I mean I hate cinema sins with a passion because it went from good to bad, from accurate to inflated stupid lies with no thought behind it just the the episodes would become longer :/ but your version was very cool and accurate and made me remember the good videos of the channel :)

I think where people get confused is...canon is not a synonym for 'good.' Something can both be canon and utter horseshit at the same time. Maybe it's difficult for DCAU fans to understand that because so much of it is excellent.

@Gokitalo 3 года назад

I am pretty impressed by all those impressions! As for the ending, I am now hitting my forehead not realizing sooner this was where it was all headed... "it doesn't matter" is also catching on in other franchises. I am wondering how this approach impacts the timeline you've all been working on, as well as how you pick out continuity for Legacies of the DCAU. Maybe with the latter, it's kind of a case of, "Try not to contradict anything and keep your fingers crossed"? I am guessing the next "Will It Canon?" installment will shed light on some of these questions... Also been trying find where Ty Templeton made that comment-- I'm curious to see what your reply was! EDIT-- haven't checked the WDb Twitch in a while, so I may be behind on timeline stuff...

@dcauwatchtower 3 года назад

We’ve been streaming to Twitch and RU-vid simultaneously for several weeks now, so everything you’ve missed over there is here too! As for the future of WIC, this is BY FAR not the end of the show, and keep in mind this is all just one DataJames’ opinion on the subject in-story...

@gechoman44iwantahippo 3 года назад

I think the best way to make this work in the current timeline is to disregard the dialogue itself and say Nora Fries’s illness came back. I already think that many cartoons’ dialogue is not exactly canon, more inferred. What they say is SIMILAR to what they actually said, but not exact. So ket’s just say that the dialogue in the comic is CLOSE to what they actually said, but not exact.

@Nightman221k 3 года назад

The whole Nora thing just made it obvious that the comics broke from canon. Nora being a long-dead corpse can't fit into any part of the timeline. And not only that but Jason Todd being wedged into the story feels so poorly done and made no sense to the way events took place. It shouldn't be the reader's place to bend over backwards to explain a retcon when the DCAU used to try to make things fit. It's just bad writing to say that something that big happened between the scenes.

I would 100% welcome an alternate DCAU timeline where Batman Beyond doesnt happen if it means we can see a happy ending for Bruce where he isn't old, miserable, and alone. If only there were an alternate story of mask Of the Phantasm where Batman turns a blind eye on Andrea killing Joker/she lets him go, and her and Bruce live happily ever after. Or if he gets with Catwoman or Talia, that works too. I think our hero deserves better than what he got.

@Duragizer8775 Месяц назад

Far as I'm concerned, the DCAU is the alternate timeline. The original universe is BTAS + the first two movies + the issues of the original Batman Adventures/Batman & Robin Adventures tie-in comic which don't conflict with the animated material. Let's call it Earth-992. STAS, TNBA, BB, etc. is all Earth-508.

The real answer to canon for this is that the comic was always a template for a potential HBO Max adaptation (this has been addressed a few times) obviously we can't get that now, but like Mad Love before it, the screen version would take precedence. There might or might have been more work going into that as they'd certainly have more time. Which means we probably wouldn't get Batman kicking Nora Fries.
