The Dark Knight Animated

It's very possible that of all the comics, movies, TV shows and other media over the years, Batman has never been better represented than he was in "Batman: The Animated Series," which should be on anyone's short list of the greatest cartoons of all time.  So, as awesome as the Christopher Nolan Batman films have been and will no doubt continue to be with 'Dark Knight Rises,' if you told me that Paul Dini and Bruce Timm were taking over the film franchise after Nolan leaves, I would be as equally fired up.
