Best Batman
If you are a fan of this series, as soon as you see the cover, the opening music will be playing in your head. This is the GoT of 90s animation. It is all done so well, and on a big scale, a proper score, talented voice actors, quality animation, it's all here!
The odd episode may miss the mark, but otherwise you are fully drawn in to a Bat man that is dark, has depth, but also some humour. While it is suitable for kids (Not too young, and I would advise parents take a look, just incase) it does not pander to them and is great for adults too. Some other DC animations have tryed to emulate this, and done well. But none have quite found the same beauty the original has achieved.
A Must for any Bat-fans out there, and I can not wait for my son to join me in a binge session on this classic.

2 young adults meet in a cancer support group, only problem is, skye is the only one out of them both with terminal cancer. In fact Calvin doesn't have cancer at all, or any disease for that matter, he is just a hyperchondriac. Naturally in true movie form Skye does not know about this and the 2 hit it off. Calvin agrees to help Skye with her 'to die list', her own version of a bucket list.
I felt the character of Izzy (Calvin's s crush) was out of place, there was only supposed to be a 3 year age gap but she looks so much older than him, making their dating scenes a very weird viewing in fact it would have been better without their dating scenes.
I did enjoy watching Skye and Calvin's friendship develop though, it was not often someone with such a strong personality would become best friends with someone who was the complete opposite. It also made a change from 2 main characters falling in love.
