    When I grow up
    I will be tall enough to reach the branches
    That I need to reach to climb the trees
    You get to climb when you're grown up
    And when I grow up
    I will be smart enough to answer all
    The questions that you need to know
    The answers to before you're grown up
    And when I grow up
    I will eat sweets every day
    On the way to work and I
    Will go to bed late every night
    And I will wake up
    When the sun comes up and I
    Will watch cartoons until my eyes go square
    And I won't care 'cause I'll be all grown up!
    When I grow up!
    When I grow up, when I grow up (When I grow up)
    I will be strong enough to carry all
    The heavy things you have to haul
    Around with you when you're a grown-up
    And when I grow up, when I grow up (When I grow up)
    I will be brave enough to fight the creatures
    That you have to fight beneath the bed
    Each night to be a grown-up
    And when I grow up (And when I grow up)
    I will have treats every day
    And I'll play with things that mum pretends
    That mums don't think are fun
    And I will wake up (And I will wake up)
    When the sun comes up and I
    Will spend all day just lying in the sun
    And I won't burn 'cause I'll be all grown-up
    When I grow up
    And when I grow up
    I will be brave enough to fight the creatures
    That you have to fight beneath the bed
    Each night to be a grown-up
    When I grow up...
    Just because you find that life's not fair, it
    Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it
    If you always take it on the chin and wear it
    Nothing will change
    When I grow up...
    Just because I find myself in this story
    It doesn't mean that everything is written for me
    If I think the ending is fixed already
    I might as well be saying
    I think that it's OK
    And that's not right!

      If you think about it, they all got turned into 10 year olds and reverted to having behaviors that they had as children like Wonder Woman being bossy and Green Lantern needing glasses and having ADHD. When Bruce said he hasn't been a kid since he was 8 years old, he meant it. He retained his adult mind because he doesn't know how to be a kid past 8 years old

      It's 100% cyclical. Golden Age starts dark, and goes light, and then goes campy in the Silver Age. The Bronze Age has dark undertones to start, but is light compared to the nihilism of the 80s and 90s. Then you get the hopefulness pinnacle of the entire genre with the Avengers assemble circle shot in the first movie. Now we're in a phase of deconstruction. I think it has to do with burnout on the genre causing writers to create or rediscover directions to take the characters.

Wanting superheroes to be dark and edgy is a very teenager thing, almost as if you were ashamed of liking 'kid stuff'. But as you grow older and you accept that good stories are not kid nor adult, simply good stories, then you find new appreciation for more innocent and even silly stuff.

      Yes and no. Part of the problem is that there's a way to make heroes be that simple symbol of hope, without having them become unbelievably ridiculous in a way that cynicism MUST deconstruct them. But nobody does it, because most don't realize that.
      People, even adults, these days are fixated on crap like "the prisoner's dilemma" and other logical fallacies. Or worse, they're fixated on subjective dangerously optimistic nonsense like humanism.
      So what ends up happening, is when heroes don't have either some logical reason to NOT adhere to those, or can logically adhere to those and yet still be heroes...people can't tolerate the discrepancy and need to tear them down.
      The only ones who don't, are they religious types who already learned to ignore those kinds of discrepancies, unknowingly at their own peril.

      So, with the first story, what happens to the (probably multiple) babies born at the moment the worlds are divided, or for that matter all the ones born afterward? Are they suddenly whisked away to an adult-free universe where they most likely die of neglect in short order? What about the older kids who are right on the cusp of adulthood, do they turn whatever age the instigators of this mess think is "adult" and vanish to the other world?
      Even nastier, what if the selection criteria for "child" is based on local legal statutes? Is every fetus, blastocyte or fertilized egg in regions where your personhood starts at conception unceremoniously yanked out of its womb and dumped in Kidworld? I mean, they're supposedly humans, and they sure aren't adults, and this seems like a binary setup so - they must be kids, right? Let's see one of the Big Two do that story. Ought to go over great.

    It's episodes like this that show we can have silly premises but still be mature and serious in that fun. Life is serious, yeah, but it can also be fun and bizarre, and I think our stories should reflect that. Sure, some stories should lean into one or the other more depending on the kind of story it is, but there can always be a middle ground. In fact, having the fun, silly stuff can make heavy moments hit harder. Bruce's "I haven't been a kid since I was 8 years old" exemplifies this.

    I have such nostalgia for this episode. Justice League in general, but this episode being one specifically that I'll always remember. It's interesting, at the time having been the age that the four become in the episode, and being able to relate more directly to the characters. John's geekiness and creative energy, Clark's "I'm confused why am I here" energy, and Bruce being kind of an awkward smart kid trying to keep the chaos in check.
    I've always been able to relate to characters on things other than *appearance* and focused on character traits anyway, partly because there aren't many characters that look like me in the first place. But it was a very different angle.
    This is a bit of an aside perhaps, but Tbh I think a lot of people could do well to relate to characters and people who aren't the same as them on deeper attributes Iike that. I think one would call that *empathy.* These Twitterites nowadays can't relate to anyone fictional or real unless they're the same in every single way that they deem important.
    I'm not rich, an orphan, white, a master martial artist in peak physical condition, or an actual *genius,* but I can relate to Bruce Wayne on being an introvert that cares for people despite not always showing it in ways that extroverts understand, and on considering my mind to be my greatest asset while a lot of groups of peers through my life have been the type to value brawn over brain. Etcetera etcetera for plenty of other characters, and that counts for real people too.

    I always felt bad for Mordred at the end. I hated the Baby Etrigan part it was just for "cute" factor, but it felt random and like a quirky fanfiction idea somehow in the actual episode. It's also a little sad that he gets so sidelined and then when they do use the actually really cool character... it's to turn him into a baby and make "ew, the baby pooped his diaper" gags with him.
    I'm kinda glad that they're going to do a complete Superman reboot, I would've liked a hard reboot with Henry Cavill still playing Superman. But it would still be tarnished to the public since Snyder took away all of his positivity and friendly nature. Henry Cavill's a good actor and should've gotten a shot to portray the character as accurately to the comics as Christopher Reeve or the DCAU's (and pretty much every DC animated film's) take's personality was.

      Small Scale, but interesting. It'd be good to see a Live Action Parasite, especially if the pull off a second act power plant explosion and Supes has to convince him to help. There's just some really good stories with Parasite it'd be cool to see big screen.
      I'd also love just a big focus on him SAVING and HELPING. Like, natural disasters, car accidents, all sorts. Obviously he needs to have his life, to love his life, like IP said, he's the Alien Immigrant who was raised with love, but I want to see a Superman that's helping out, not just fighting criminals.
      The stories in Superman - American Alien are a really interesting starter ramp for superman, if they adapted that it'd be great. But I'd prefer no origins from now on. I think people get the whole Superhero thing, just start making them interesting again!

    Thank you so much for these videos. I've been binge-watching them over the past couple of weeks. I think it makes it so much more sad for me that the DCU has stumbled as badly as it has since they had the perfect template for an 'extended universe' of movies right here with the DCAU. How cool would it have been to see the story of someone getting Batman's plans to defeat the Justice League on the big screen with Cavill, Afleck and Gadot?

I also grew up watching that and reading the 60’s/70’s comics, and I think it has some really cool themes and perspectives! Anyways, thanks for the great content!!

    Everybody else is like "haha they are kids, what a fun change-up and examination of them" (and a little "Haha Wonder Woman is cute")
    Meanwhile I'm like "Uhhhh Mordred teleported every adult to another dimension. Every adult on life support, ripped from it. Every surgery in process, interrupted. Every airplane, suddenly 90% empty and no pilot. Every car..." like damn, son. at least Young Justice split all of reality in half when it did this, and acknowledged some of those issues. This would have irreparably destroyed the world.
    ... and while I'm at it, John is changed into an authentic version of himself as a kid, complete with myopia.. yet the spell had no issue with Wonder Woman's true child form being a block of marble?

    I have the expirence of growing up too young. Yeah, a lot of people go through it, but it's still alienating. I grew up wanting more than anything to be a kid, even though I was one. I have never had that child like innocence and it's make me worse off. Once you leave childhood, you can never go back. I love DCAU because of how simple it is are, but how effective it is. It's everything I wish I had, Flash is a dorky kid, Batman is respected, Diana is mom, Superman is loved. They are all kids playing in the playground that is their world, it's the dream we've all had.
    I grew up wanting to be Batman, but as an adult I realize that Batman isn't happy. He's broken, angry, and sad, I don't want that for myself. I relate to him, yes, but I'd much rather be like Superman. Superman is loved and happy, he's a simple boy scout who grew up in a loving family in a small town. Even though he's incredibly powerful, sometimes he feels like he's way out of his depth. I am more like Batman than I care to admit, but I, with every fiber of my being, want to be Superman because he's happy.

So had they done another Superman, how exactly were they going to explain both Clark AND Superman coming back from the very much indeed dead at the same time? These writers keep writing themselves into these dead ends with no forethought....unless they were going to do that thing where Clark flies around the Earth really fast and then he kisses Lois and somehow erases her memory by means of mucousal contact, which is one of his powers if we're going by the C.

    The Best Framework for the future of DC movies is either interesting unique one offs, about interesting stories - we can understand they are seperate world - Or going into an upbreat impossible world.
    Since they're rebooting anyway, don't go dark and gritty for the millionth time. And heck it, keep some actors.
    But all they should do, copy the start of JL, the White Martian invasion is a fun piece, and introduces characters well.
    No origins for anyone but Martian Manhunter, who hasn't been done well in movies for a while, and have Batman investigating, then he goes to Metropolis. Clark gets home from a date with Lois, when he has to push her off because Batman is in his apartment. They have a chat, Call each other by names, and Batman talks about his investigation, and the weirdness. Superman helps him, they find MM, and as they drive the white martian threat into the open, it requires more heroes to stop them. The League forms, and decides, to continue working together.
    Then in future movies, we just have references to what the rest of the League is dealing with, a constant, vibrant world, to explain not helping in individual movies, and those stories, if good enough, can even make their own movies or shows or miniseries.
