Holy Musical B@man! It's a musical about Batman! Act 1, parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Act 2, parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

I love Starkid, but why do their shows have to be so LONG?

Because I hate you all, here's a link to Everything Is Terrible's encapsulation of a 70's Superman Musical.

I was holding out on posting this cause I wasn't sure just how much I wanted to out myself as a Starkid fan.

Superman the musical has the immortal line " O Superman! You've saved my life again! " which just Simms up the whole superman Thing in my head.

Pleased to see Lauren Lopez being amazing once again. So far though I've seen nothing to top her Draco.

Was good, quite good, until the Commissioner Gordon character came on stage.

A) They meet when Gordon is a low-level beat cop recently arrived from Chicago, not already Commissioner.
B) Gordon is a bad-ass, at least intellectually, and does not regularly say "ooooh" with 4 extra syllables to emphasize his incompetence and worry.
C) Southern?


FAIL


Somewhat redeemed itself when B@tman fired a machine gun at the clerk who committed "reasonable delay before returning dollar to register." But then that joke has been done... and quite well, by Disney no less....

side note, if you don't have time to follow jcreigh's excellent advice perhaps enjoy just the vertically oriented scenes.

Yay! Thanks for this. I knew they were working on it but didn't know it was out already. Their film production quality has vastly improved.

A little sad that there's no Joey, though.
