DC On Max: Official Watch Party Discussion!

Holy Mother of All Watch-Alongs, Batman!

To celebrate the upcoming premiere of The Flash, join us over at the official DC Twitter as we kick back with two ultimate Michael Keaton classics — Batman (1989) and Batman Returns!

When can you join the party?

We’ll be kicking off the Max Watch Parties with Batman (1989) on Tuesday, June 6th, at 6pm PT / 9pm ET. Then we’ll be back at it with Batman Returns the following Tuesday, June 13th, at the same Bat time, same Bat channel!


This party’s BYOB — Bring Your Own Batarang — so don’t forget to join us starting next week!

I think at this point it can be said without a doubt that Batman '89 is the most popular watch-along this year at the DC Community! :smile: :batman: :hearts:

You hosted one when it debuted on TCM, @DC89 and I are doing one tomorrow and now, DC on Max is as well.

Its quite the Prince of a movie.

SN: Two bucks and an '80s AMEX (“Don’t leave home without it.”) says that someone will do a 35th anniversary WAL for it next year as well.

Uh, yeah, yeah, sure.

takes the file folder in front of him that’s marked “Project: 8935” and slides it into a secure spot, then turns around in his chair

I’m down for a three-host gig! :superman_hv_4: :muscle:t2: :partying_face:

:notes: We’re the three best WAL friends! :notes:

“Moving on.”

@Jitsu Will anybody at the DC on Max gig be highlighting merchandise for either film?

I know a guy who could help out, if needed. :sunglasses:

One of my favorite things about watching Batman on VHS.

SN: Batman likely contributed to my consumption of Diet Coke, too (the initials also helped).

Nice to see things expanding to Twitter!

It was also great seeing an actual click-through promotion of another DC Community activity in the DC Comics email newsletter this week for the first time that I recall!

In my opinion Michael Keaton will save the Flash movie, so having him in the movie was a smart move!
Would’ve also love to see Val Kilmer, but sadly he’s not in a good health to play Batman. As for Christian Bale…YES! That would be awesome to see, only if it was a cameo.:grinning:

Was a lot of fun and a different way to interact with the DC community. I definitely would recommend it if you have access to Batman Returns next week and twitter. I had a good time seeing other people’s thoughts and watching with that community. Thanks for letting us know this was happening. Can’t wait to watch Batman Returns next week!!!
