DC Animated Movie Review: ***Batman: Under the Red Hood (2010)

 This is an intriguing story.  Batman (Bruce Greenwood) is too late to save Robin (Alexander Martella) from the Joker (Joe DiMaggio).  The Joker beats him to death with a crow bar.  Batman does take him home and bury him.  Years later, a vigilante in a red hood (Jensen Ackles) appears and begins taking out the mob.  One of the mobsters finally breaks the Joker out of jail to protect them.  The Joker arranges for the Red Hood to be put in an awkward position of having to save people from the Joker.  Turns out however this is what the Red Hood wanted.  He is seeking revenge on the Joker, who killed him.  Robin was brought back to live by Ra's al Ghul (Jason Isaacs).  This lead to a classic confrontation.  Nightwing (Neal Patrick Harris) is also involved.  Very good show with lots of action.

Movie Review: ****Peter Pan (2003)

This is a cute movie.  If takes the original Peter Pan, and puts a little twist on it.  The theme is the importance of believing, whether in  fairies, or yourself.  There is a point where even the confidence of Peter Pan is shaken.  At that point belief is what saved him.  I love the Peter Pan story, and recommend this story.  The scene between Tiger Lilly and John Darling are priceless.
