Line 1: {{work}} == [[Fridge Brilliance]] == * When I first saw ''[[~~Batman the Brave And The Bold (Animation)\|Batman the Brave And The Bold~~{{ROOTPAGENAME}}]]'', I thought it took Batman's "Batgod" status a little too far. After watching the episode "Game Over for Owlman," in which Owlman uses Ted Kord's BB Gun to disable Jaime Reyes, it hit me - this is a Batman to whom [[Reed Richards Is Useless\|Reed Richards is not useless.]] All of the crazy, outlandish, un-Batman-y gadgets Batman uses in this show - mecha, lightsabers, space flight capable jetpack, etc. - are the results of Batman augmenting his arsenal with additions copied or suggested from his fellow superheroes! This actually makes ''more'' sense than the comic Batman sticking to light body armor and low technology despite spending so much time around mega-geniuses and alien technology. --[[User:The Evil Dr Bolty]] Which means that [[Silver Age]] Batman, despite his [[Camp\|campiness]] ruining the darkness of Batman, was actually the best and most efficient crimefighter out of the versions. Which also means that the [[Bronze Age]] and [[Dark Age]] actually made Batman less realistic than the [[Silver Age]].--[[User:Yarrunmace]] * Well, shoot, in the late '50s and early '60s, Gotham City was renowned for being a pleasant, prosperous place with a fairly low crime rate, because Batman had cleaned up the city. Sure, there were weird aliens wandering aimlessly through town every couple of months, but yeah, by and large, the "silliest" Batman was by far the most effective one. -- [[User:Your Obedient Serpent]] It isn't like comic! Batman isn't [[Crazy Prepared]] either. ''[[~~Batman the Brave And The Bold (Animation)\|Batman the Brave And The Bold~~{{ROOTPAGENAME}}]]'' just took 'Batman can beat anyone with enough prep time' and turned it into 'Batman has a lightsaber and a car that turns into a giant robot, ''just in case''.' * Meaning he had more than enough prep time. * I recently had one of these moments regarding everyone's favorite [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] The Music Meister. Setting to spoilers for everyone that hasn't seen his episode yet: {{spoiler\|so, in the final music number, we are treated to a montage of his hypnotized victims stealing everything and anything insight; at first, [[Fridge Logic]] sets in when you think there's no possible way he could ever need or collect all that is being take. But this is where the Brilliance comes into play: He KNOWS this. After his show stopping number ends, people will be confused and maybe even slightly panicked; meaning that it would take weeks, or even months, to figure out everything that was missing and what was just taken by the hypnotized masses. By that time, the Music Meister could be literally ANYWHERE in the world with whatever he felt he could take without being noticed. [[Large Ham\|Too subtle for his character you say?]] That leads to another moment of Brilliance; that 'character' is an act! (a performance, if you will). He plays up the camp factor by singing all the time (when vocalizing at the pitch needed to hypnotize people would be enough), wearing ever more extravagant costumes and just being as over the top as possible to hide just how subtle he can be (and possibly because he honestly enjoys it).}} Suddenly; an already epic character seems [[Up to Eleven\|EVEN MORE Awesome]]. Line 14: == [[Fridge Horror]] == * Am I the only one who realized just how dangerous [[The Music Meister]] from ''[[Batman: ~~the~~The Brave And The Bold ~~(Animation)~~\|Batman the Brave And The Bold]]'' is?! Now, don't get me wrong, the episode was a delight, but hear me out. Throughout the episode, he took control of people just by SINGING. By doing a musical number through Gotham, WHILE RUNNING FROM THE BATMAN, he turned the entire city into his slaves. Heck, in the opening, if Batman hadn't stopped them, the three heroes and three villains he had control of, who he had control of even before he first APPEARED, would have done a kickline right into a rocketblast at Music Meister's orders. Even with Batman's [[Plot Device]] earplugs in them, [[~~Aquaman (Comic Book)\|~~Aquaman]], [[Green Arrow]], and [[Black Canary]] were STILL singing, which implies that his voice isn't just hypnotic, but [[The Virus\|viral!]] {{spoiler\|He was literally just one person away from ruling the entire world at the end...}} ...God, if he got into the main DCU, and took control of Oracle and Calculator... It's ungodly catchy for us, too. Dear lord, [[The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You\|imagine what would happen if he saw us.]] Line 31: * I believe the canon answer ([[All There in the Manual\|from the comics]]) is that the dome had been built to protect from other threats, and just happened to work in this situation beautifully. Maybe they just find walking easier and more convenient than swimming all the time. * Why did AQUAMAN's plan in "Mystery In Space" involve borrowing {{spoiler\|Earth's moon}} for an eclipse, and not one of the other ~~billon~~billion or so chunks of dirt in the universe of roughly the same size that wouldn't cause untold devastation to the planet's inhabitants? ** And why didn't the Eye of Zarod have a battery backup? * How does Bat-Mite, the biggest Batman fan ever, ''not'' recognize Harley Quinn? (You'd think someone who can traverse dimensions would be open to the idea of a [[Canon Immigrant]]...) ** Given her redesign as a 20s gangster moll, he may have thought she was another Joker henchwoman. ---- ~~{{reflist}}~~ :<small>Back to ''[[{{ROOTPAGENAME}}]]''</small> [[Category:~~Fridge (Animation)~~{{ROOTPAGENAME}}]] [[Category:~~Fridge~~{{SUBPAGENAME}}]]▼ [[Category:Fridge Horror/Western Animation]] [[Category:~~Batman~~Fridge ~~The Brave And The Bold~~(animation)]] ▲[[Category:Fridge]]
