Picked this up the other day. DC continues to do well with their animated movies. Just like with all the others, I really liked it. Killer Frost was well done despite being largely unknown. The Joker was great as usual and Troy Baker was phenomenal. He could be the best Joker voice actor to replace Hamill.

My only big complaint was the portrayal of Harley. They overplayed her ditziness. I'd have liked it more if they had toned it down some and brought out her smart/calculating side.

Anyone seen it yet?

I saw it and it was great as usual for DC animated. I do love how they're taking the animated flicks in a more adult direction. Lots of nudity and killing and more graphic and brutal fights. Harley/deadshot precursor sex scene (Harley's back looked ripped btw), villains heads blowing up and being stabbed for example. The fighting in DC animated has come a long way from BTAS where it looks pretty tame now.

That was typical batman with how he did the bait and switch disguising himself as a villain. Call me crazy but I think he knew the villain he switched up with was going to die. Joker was great as usual and he stayed true to how he wants chaos to reign supreme and treating Harley like a pos. Waller is alive because in comic books if we don't see the kill shot and the body, the subject is still alive.

With the nudity and her behavior, I had the weirdest boner ever over a cartoon chick.

Don't get me wrong, it isn't much of a complaint. Harley is one of my favorite female characters.

She is insane and acts like a bimbo, but she is also a psychiatrist. She is crazy smart. She just downplays it.

I agree about the movie being for adults. They've done a great job with that.

I really liked the scene at the end where Waller notices the laser.
