Batman: New Times is an animated CGI Batman LEGO Fan Film created by the students of the DAVE (Digital Animation and Visual Effects) school. The film depicts a Minimate version of Batman and Gotham City, and combines elements of the original Batman (TV series) (without the intentional camp humour) and Batman: The Animated Series. The CGI models used for the film are based on Art Asylum's Minimates toyline, although they are often times confused with Lego bricks.

[edit] Plot

It is New Years Eve, and Bruce Wayne is hosting a party at Wayne Manor. Just when he meets "Ms. Kitka" (Catwoman in disguise, as seen in the 1966 film Batman: The Movie), he gets a call from the Commissioner, explaining that the Joker is planning a New Years Eve crime spree.

It is up to the Batman to avoid Harley Quinn's distractions, and stop the Joker from pulling the world's largest stick-up at midnight, but surprises are ahead...

[edit] Rating

The film is rated PG (Parental Guidance) for animated violence and minor sensuality. However, the film also received an "E for EVERYONE" rating by Batman Fan Films.

[edit] Trivia

  • Every year, the students actually create a short film to demonstrate what they have learned in class and for future employers. Batman: New Times was released 2005 by the graduating class December 2004 of Dave School.
  • The success of Batman: New Times led Marvel Comics and Diamond Select Toys contracting DAVE School and its students to produce a commercial film in the same style using Marvel characters, X-men: Darktide.
