How: Great question- read below!

  1. CAN’T WIN IF YOU DON’T PLAY – You must have a subscription to DC Universe to access Batman Beyond!
  2. DUAL-WIELDING – Watch-Alongs are best experienced on two devices; Your phone for comments, and your big screen for viewing.
  3. 2, 1 LET’S JAM – Have your clicking finger on the “play” button and ready for action- we’ll be starting at the stroke of the hour.
  4. A WRINKLE IN TIME – If you get lost in the time, you can calculate where the audience is by checking the minute- For example, if it’s 1:15 pm PDT, then we are 15 minutes into the movie. Or, just check with us in the comments and we’ll happily let you know what we’re watching.

Hope to see you Jokerz there! :smiley:

Also, if you want to talk more in depth about the episodes before or after the WAL, the DC TV & Movie Club is doing a thread about these two episodes this week! If you want to check it out, you can click right HERE.

I think I got confused about the time on these and thought I couldn’t make it to them when I actually could. On that note, I’ve never seen Batman Beyond, so I’ll be happy to have a look at it here!

(Sidenote: January 30th is a Thursday.)

Yeah, I really have no excuse, since I’ve watched most of the rest of the DCAU (though I also need to get around to actually finishing STAS).
