You can tell Batman not only respects the strength of his enemies, he treats them like people. The compassion he shows Arnold while showing disregard and disgust to Scarface, and the desire to help his old friend in Harvey while keeping the coin away in their fight shows how he wants to win the right way.

If there's one way I've seen Batman fight that I like more than the Arkham system, it's the way he fights here. Slipping into the darkness, baiting enemies into shooting at nothing to distract themselves, using the Batmobile as a makeshift barricade to separate the grunts, the choreography (and everything else) in this animation is absolutely stellar. Plus, the voice actor for Dent balancing on insanity, switching between calm and reserved and batshit insane is incredible, his unwillingness to let the cards fall without the Coin, knocking around his own men. Great understanding of every character here. Tens across the board, and a shining example of what every person who writes Batman should try to replicate.

I too liked the choreographed fight, one thing I think that would be sooo realistic ( like that how I would try to beat the ods) is for batman to drop small speakers before / during fight, now THAT o think would actually work in both stealth mode, like getting people really confuse by batman speaking from all directions, adding creepy laugh and sounds and drawing attention from set ups and movements. Combine that with some kind of gas or mist and the confusion is real. Even if they do find the equipment, the time and attention needed to investigate would be fatal. Another move I miss to se actually comes from kick as. I absolutely loved how big daddy used the electro light to confuse and momentarily blind he's opponents, that too would be such a believable and yet easy move to pull off for the dark night. After all we do all wanna belive that he could be real and things like that I think really ads to the credibility

I adore how much you paid attention to the things that make batman such a unique hero. So many times he ends up be written as a man who finds crime and punches it until it doesn't get back up, but here he acts in a way that conveys his character so much better. He keeps to the shadows when necessary, he uses reason and tries to diffuse situations with words first, he doesn't inflict any brutal 10 years in the hospital kind of violence. Hes a man who truly knows his ideals, and keeps to them in all aspects of his talk, movement, and combat. The animation is mind blowing, but its the character work that I'm going be be thinking about long after this.

Two-Face is my absolute favorite villian and he is depicted so damn well here man, fantastic job! Great animation and great writing! One thing that is never shown too often is how brutal of a combatant in a fight Harvey is, a straight up brawler filled with rage that can throw Batman around. Really wish other Films and animations would pull from this because he can be such a unit in the comics against batman both physically and mentally.

The "man on the inside" scene had me droping my jaw harder than the puppet. This is incredibly well written, designed and animated, from the use of light, shadow and color, to the positioning and angles of characters during fights to give significance to their intention. Batman´s stealth tactics, combat strategies and understanding of his enemies is shown to absolute perfection. And this is fan made.

I know this is going to sound stupid as hell, but this is *art.* There are tributes, and passion projects, and so many attempts at telling a story that come up short. This right here is just... it's art. It's Batman in his purest and truest form. It's an impressive contemporary styling of TWO different villains. Excellent fight choreography, a brilliant short story, nice voice work, and, of corse, gorgeous art. It's Batman. THIS is Batman.

Ventriloquist/Scarface is indeed a great character, his episode in *Gotham* season 5 ("Nothing's Shocking") is one of my favorites from that last season... If you want to see a live-action Scarface, for now it's the only one, except from a couple of very brief cameos in the show *Titans* . Anyway, in *Gotham* the Ventriloquist is played by the great Andrew Sellon, a real-life ventriloquist who was later made an honorary member of the International Ventriloquist Society for his work on the show. *Gotham* really is a great watch if you're a hardcore Batman enthusiast, and especially if you're a fan of his rogues gallery... between Cameron Monaghan's "Joker", Robin Lord Taylor's Penguin, Cory Michael Smith's Riddler, Alexander Siddig's Ra's al Ghul, Anthony Carrigan's Victor Zsasz, Camren Bicondova's Selina Kyle... There's just so much talent in there, that it's a shame that this show doesn't get as a much credit as other live action DC shows...

Batman being so calm and collected and so aware of everything going on around him to the point he knew long before Harvey that the coin landed on heads and didn’t even blink with a gun to his head knowing Harvey won’t pull the trigger once he sees the coin’s choice

A detail I loved here is how Batman's cowl muffles the sounds of gunfire. That's a nice treat.

That was one of the best fan animations I’ve ever seen, well done sir! The fights was well choreographed, the elements of dark and light were soooo creative, and on top of that it was a pure tribute to our favorite shows, movies, and games of the Batman. Thank u dude Small edit, my favorite thing was you showed how well Bruce deals with criminals and victims. He was investigating a back alley murder when the cops were tasked with high-spot light case. He spoke directly to the Ventriloquist (a very obscure Batman villain, amazingly portrayed) not the puppet bc he understood his condition. And he thwarted Two-Face’s plans by executing the right amount of force until he didn’t need to anymore. That’s the biggest thing of why we like Batman- he cares for the victims, who sometimes happen to also be the perpetrators.

I love this version of Batman where he clearly has a deep knowledge of his enemies psyche and even some intimacy (probably because he's done this dozens of times) and tries to talk the "big bosses" down before going all out. I think this happens because he's more mature and understands that punching everybody in the mouth at first sight doesn't really fix the problem permanently. He can either kill them or try to change them, and Batman being Batman, he chose the second option. I also love how he's so confident in his own abilities, but not in a cocky or arrogant way (maybe a little). He exposes himself, but he knows he can just disappear in the shadows if he wants to and people won't be able to keep up. This is amazing. Thanks for this.

This is easily one of the best Batman entries out there. "If I can't control the crime then I'll control the punishment" is an jncredible line for a villain.

As tired as I am of grounded Batman stories, I *LOVE* this take on Harvey. He's like the Dark Knight and Long Halloween versions with punishing those on both sides of the law rather than a gangster obsessed with duality. Also that voice constantly switching between Harvey and Two-Face is just brilliant.

SICCCK that scene where harvey comes back out from the dark and only his deformed side shows was amazing

This is spectacular. A friend told be about this today, and I am so glad they did. From the start, the artwork is amazing. The way you manipulated the audio in different parts, to make it sound like it's coming from a tv, or a radio, or from a recording device or in an echoey building, it's so well done. The accompanying music was also so cool, it really sold the film as a whole, helped heighten the tension. And the whole message of this, the hope of Harvey's message, his promise, undercut so sharply by the reality of Gotham. By his failure, or betrayal, or just bad luck. And speaking of the reality of Gotham, the way you combined the comic world with the very real and current message of Harvey's here was so impressive. You have a puppet running drugs, but somehow it manages to add to the tension of the story, to feed into the universe, rather than taking away from it, or making it feel to silly to take seriously. The whole movement of this piece is so unique. Your use of shadows and angles emphasizes the beautifully. The way you hid Batman in the shadows during the fight scene? I can't get enough of it. Also, the moment at 5:15 where the guys sandwich falls apart? 😂 under-appreciated genius, I never would of thought of using a sandwich to show emotion. Thank you so incredibly much for sharing this. It's beautiful, and it shows such an amazing understanding of the characters. I'm sure I will be watching this many more times.

Easily the best representation of Harvey I've ever seen and the very effective use of a largely obscure yet very interesting and complicated character like Wesker was an absolute stroke of genius!

Holy sh*** That is THE best Two Face to ever be put on screen - thank you.

Honestly and I can't stress this enough. You honestly did a fantastic job with this. I noticed there was a lot of limitation with just using movement in rhis film do you used shaky cam to help convey the intesity and movement. Normally it would be overwhelming but you actually did such a great job using it when necessary. I actually think your best work was when two face and Batman were fighting on top of the Batmobile because that entire sequence was so clean man. The small details and changes in Harvey's facials was so well done. Writing was very tight but had so much packed in that it makes it better when seeing all the smaller details on a second watch! 🙏💯

I know I posted this over a week ago but I also still have some thoughts I want to give. Just because I really did give this another watch. I sometimes forget just how perfect of a villain that two-face is to Batman. Because the thing that I like about your whole entire pilot here is that you began and ended the whole thing with 'no compromises.' it's actually so simple but effective. The thing about Batman is that he can't show compromise, When it comes to his no killing policy. He can't go through with it because he knows that if he does kill, he can't get that guilt to escape from him, it will consume him. It's the same thing with Harvey, He can't live without the coin. That's why he had to take that showcase of extremism by trying to poison the drug supply. Because he's willing to go that far because Batman simply won't. And Harvey shows the ugly side to going that far, the 'nuclear option'. When Batman said 'the people you promised to protect!' when Harvey revealed his plan... remember Harvey literally said to Arnold 'do I care?' ...no he doesn't. Harvey shows that he has abandoned his old morals and thrown them away because he was scarred for life. But it brought out the darker side of him that he kept below the surface just like we saw at the beginning of this pilot. The small twitch...Harvey didn't show his dark side but it was always there. That's what Bruce fears more then anything. Becoming like Harvey is if he abandons his old morals. Hence the title 'broken promise' I won't rant forever but I can't stress it man after seeing what Warner Bros has been doing to their own properties it makes happy to know guys like you atleast give a damn about showing how DC should do their comics even if it is abit darker I think that's it's the better option then what is happening with the MCU right now (atleast from a guy who enjoys good CONSISTENT storytelling like we saw with Matt Reeves The Batman *I am also currently enjoying Loki season 2 btw*) Anyway hope you have good day 👍🏻

This feels like an instant classic. The fact that this is a fan written original blows my mind considering how accurately it characterizes Two-Face and Batman. Two-Face's entire scheme is absolutely beautifully written and makes so much sense for his character. "If I can't control the crime, I'll control the punishment" is so painfully and fantastically in character for Harvey Dent I almost refuse to believe this wasn't written by a team of professional writers. You can so clearly see that despite doing what he genuinely believes to be the right thing to do, Harvey is absolutely insane. Batman's rogues are always at their best when their anguish and mental illness is on full display, and Batman tries to help them and reason with them anyways. Batman is always trying to save the day and the innocent people who would be affected by the villains' schemes, but even more so Batman is a character that tries to save his villains from themselves and I feel like no character represents this better than Two-Face. The inclusion of The Ventriloquist only furthers this theme. Thank you for this beautiful piece of art.

Batman tries so hard to save his mentally ill rogues, because he himself battles with mental challenges everyday. In his mind, he is TRULY BATMAN. Bruce Wayne is mask that he puts on to face the world. Everyday he has to live a life where he hides who he truly is so that he can go out and fight monsters. Every criminal he fights he has to FIGHT HIMSELF to resist the urge to kill, even just once. He emphathizes with them, because he walks that very fine line everyday. If he was a weaker man, he would've crossed it a long time ago.

I love this take on Harvey Dent. This pseudo-patriotic, form of demented justice. It makes his character more interesting and make more sense. You can see the person he was before and how twisted he has become. His ideals dictated what form of villainy he engaged in. It is way better than making two-face just a crazy person or generic mob boss.

Yeah, I love when they avoid the split personality concept because in a way it makes Harvey just another innocent victim of his evil alter ego. In this form, it's all Harvey's fault. You can pity him, you can understand him he'll in certain scenarios you may even support him up to a point. But still every citizen gunned down in a bank, every cop squished under a car. All of the people that get hurt because of his twisted sense of morality are his fault and that guilt feeds back into the loop.

This is one of the most beautiful scripted and animated short films I’ve ever seen. It’s not just Batman that’s important here. It’s Arnold and Harvey. First, Scarface is so amazingly portrayed here. Using psychology, we see that Arnold definitely has a real mental disorder probably DID (multiple personality disorder) and that line “man on the inside” is so shocking and hilarious it’s almost divine. Arnold is a broken mind. Harvey here is not just a villain, but a man. He’s truly two face. Also the contrast with the red and blue make the visuals so much more appealing and interesting to watch. Especially seeing the true colors using the Batmobile as a source of light and using it to animate Batman in shadow is an incredible touch. I also like the reference to the animated series, with the eyes and the ending shot. I love this Batman design it’s definitely brawler bat meets dark detective. I also love how the Batmobile looks with the red accent, not breaking the color palette of the scene. Honestly a beautiful piece of work, and while watching this I was so impressed by the quality of the animation. Thank you for creating and sharing this with the world, it was truly a masterpiece.

Who knew Harvey had hands. Going toe to toe with Batman.

It's a really subtle reference to how in the old comics Arnold actually wasn't the best ventriloquist and couldn't pronounce 'b' while throwing his voice, so he would call batman "Gatman."

I love how you showcase two face as a hand to hand fighter where most people often forget is that dent is a very formidable brawler in the comics.

I’ve watched this several times and given praise each time, but I have to come back again and say SOMEBODY has to pick this up as a series. NOTHING has even TOUCHED this level of art- from the literal art and animation, the costume design and architecture of the buildings, and my personal favorite: the way the animation tricks you into believing there are actual cameras, the lens flares and movements, shift focus. I’m telling everyone- THIS. IS. A. MASTERPIECE 🙌 I can give no higher praise. Please, keep this up.

This is perfect. From the patriotic take on Harvey and the very powerful themes. And then there's the combat.

@@ChangedMyNameFinally69 Honestly, I hold radicals of most/all kinds in contempt. So, yeah, having Harvey been "an enlightened centrist" (who saw through the rhetoric and political bs and was genuinely trying to make Gotham a better place for everyone) makes me feel sorrier, because when Gotham lost him, they lost one of their true heroes.

This feels like stylized cutscenes to a really good video games. Like the infamous cutscenes or games that look even better. I would instantly watch a full movie with this quality of writing and animation. This is awesome man keep up the great work

i love how you adapted two faces problems into making him a better more motisvated villain better than most adaptations

“That coin isn’t a freedom from choice it’s a surrender.” That’s one of the best lines about two face I’ve ever heard. I came here from TikTok with high expectations due to what everyone was saying and man I was not disappointed! Great work man, seriously.

There are so many moments in this that are just ...splendid. The play with light and shadow, Harvey's voice, the moment with the thug firing blindly into the dark and Bats just standing behind a pillar, waiting. Easily the best Batmobile I"ve ever seen. The writing is spectacular and the art style is incredibly interesting. Wow. just wow.

Not even himself

One of the smartest things in this is how you represent scar face, and everything he does is clearly physically controlled by Arnold, he’s not some magical entity. But he is still completely real in the sense that he is a real personality with unique motivations that exists inside Arnold’s brain. And how ,psychologically, Arnold has to literally k’ll the puppet to be free of his control, he views it like a real person and can’t just stop the act. He has to orchestrate an authentic scenario to believably terminate the doll, or he wont accept it mentally.

this made two-face a scary villain just from the set up and the dialogue. that’s how you make a Batman villain great

You should be extremely proud of the work you did on this. Every element of this animation is done beautifully.

This will be someone’s first introduction to these characters, and they will remember and cherish this short film for the rest of their life. And that’s really cool.
