This was fantastic.
I still think that "I am the Darkness" was better, but I like Batman a lot, so that may affect my choice.
I actually had a Batman scene planned it this. But I decided to leave it out so I could submit it to film festivals and stuff without having to worry about copyright problems (also I was lazy, and it would've interrupted the flow of the fight scene).
So Batman and Robin come in like so many of the other characters...
JohnnyBob: "What are you doing here?"
Batman (Christian Bale imitation): "I'm batman! And I'm robing this bank!"
JohnnyBob: "But I thought you were a good guy!"
Batman: "The Joker slipped this drug in my drink, and I'm a bad guy now."
JohnnyBob: "That's awful!"
Batman: "Don't worry, my butler's working on a cure right now... I'm going to have to beat you up now."
JohnnyBob: "NOT IF I CAN HELP IT"
And so the fighting goes on...
The credits end with this song:
Batman and Robin, robin' a bank,
I don't know what Gordon would think!
They used to be good, but now it seems that they're bad!
I think that really, really is sad!
Batman and Robin robin' a bank, (Dadadada dadadadada!)
'Cause Joker slipped something in their drink! (Dadadada dadadadada!)
Yeah this is a great movie: I LOVE IT! And I love all your works ANP, except "Attack of the Bohroks". 
Yes, this is a great movie, but did you filmed it by your old camera. Because I saw some little scenes which have some auto-focus and the quality was same like in Pirates Rule, or I guess so. So, am I right, did you filmed this by your old camera?
Yeah, as I said before, it was filmed with the old camera.
I filmed this back in January to June last year, I think. Months before getting the new camera, before filming Vango or I Am The Darkness, but it got held up in post-production so long due to a massive load of sound design I needed to do. And my sister took a while to get the music done.
Oh, alright. But I think it's a very nice movie still! 
And that camera isn't bad after all. And I like very much that you use same charaters from other movies like the cop who are in "MAILBOX OF DOOM" too. 
ANP, you are one of my favorite brickfilmers! That was fantastic!! 
Promise me that you will always have your squid in every film! I loooove him!!!
You just became one of my favourite brickfilmers. This is one of the best brickfilms I've ever seen.
And
I love the squid!
That was very well done. You've improved a lot since your last film. The animation, the effects, the sound (With the exception of some pretty poor voice acting occasionally), it was all put together very nicely. The story/idea was one I have not seen before and you presented it perfectly in my opinion. However, there were some camera bumps, annoying (no pun intended) focus changes and some minor light flicker. I also thought that at some parts the animation did not fit the dialog. Even with these minor flaws, it was still very well done, the best brickfilm I've seen since Droits D'ateur. Great work!
4.5/5

He should be in most films.
I make a point to make sure he's in there.
Along with the archway, and the hidden ninja, which no one has ever yet found in any of my films.
some pretty poor voice acting
Which parts? What characters?

Some of the bankers' voices sounded a bit too fake, and that one character at the beginning (I don't remember what his name was) sounded a bit fake as well. Occasionally, the two girls' voices would sound unconvincing a bit too, but it wasn't as noticeable as the other characters I mentioned.
Well, I was playing a girl there. xD
and that one character at the beginning (I don't remember what his name was)
"Yam-yak-a-to"
Yamyakato sounds a little eccentric (being a mad scientist and all).
OMG man you did really really outstanding job. I noticed there were some issues with focusing in the beginning but meh the rest was done so well I couldn't possibly say that it was less than awesome!
is the archway at 0:15? any way really awesome! favorite parts when
the monkey attacked the guy 
I love it 5/5 it was amazing!
Wow, that was simply brilliant. The humour was good, the sets were nice but the real thing that stood out to me was the animation. It was hard to spot one frame where someone wasn't moving at all, it was a treat just to look at. Also, I LOVED the camera movements, they were just beautiful. <3

Good animation, voices, sets, and sounds (as ususal).
Very funny, especially;
"Don't you not call the police!"
"Um, okay."
I think I figured out how to prononce Gohgzvoqsterwazootuli: gogs-vocks-tur-wah-zoo-too-lee

I must say that your set designs — both natural and artificial (i.e. buildings) — are very impressive.
Thanks again, people. 
Gohgzvoqsterwazootuli is said like:
Gogz-vok-ster-wa-zoo-too-lee
Should be relatively simple after sounding it out a few times.
I made up the name several years ago while typing a story by purposefully choosing letters one at a time which would make it extremely difficult to both pronounce and spell.
I now use it almost every time I need a big long name so long as it isn't a rwarretsnomgibami.
