Samuel Williams yeah but the good part is that those corrupted businessmen, mob bosses like Ferris Boyle, Roland Daggett and Rupert Thorne got what they deserved, don’t you think?
She truly knew how to capture a character's personality, motives, and pain in the pieces she composed. Clayface's for example the whole thing sounds Shakespearian in nature, then tragic, then a mixture of both. Exactly what one would expect to hear of an actor who underwent a horrible transformation like Hagen. Mr. Freeze's was cold, and at some points hopeless. Joker's was fun, but you knew something big was around the corner when it started playing. The list goes on.
@@Lanceawright I love Elfman's work, but she took it and made it into a class unto itself. She set the standard that almost all superhero tv series need to try and aim for music wise.
R.I.P. Kevin Conroy 1955-2022 The best voice of Batman. "Everyone is handed adversity in life. No one's journey is easy. It's how they handle it that makes people unique."
2:23 "Look at them Hagen! Look at what you used to be! You can play those roles again, Hagen. Let me help you find a cure" This is why I love this incarnation of Batman he genuinely understands the Villians and their pain. He just wants to help instead of attack them, because he knows they didn't choose this and he would rather see the people responsible pay rather than their victims suffer.
Absolutely. It's like talking to an addict who forgot about himself. Hagen was addicted to the Dagget cream. It's rough seeing a beautiful soul destroy itself no matter how much you try to intervene. It's like that episode where the kid says, I've heard all this before but I guess I was ready to listen. Or something like that, I'm paraphrasing. Unfortunately a lot aren't ready... We know how that ends.
Imagine listening to the playlist of every villain themes from TAS without having watched the series, and only knowing Clayface as that one Batman villain that's made of clay, can shapeshift, and used to be an actor or whatever. Then hearing this theme. He only had 4 episodes with him as the focus (let's not count his cameo in Holiday Knights), but all of them were absolute peak TAS, especially part 2 of Feat of Clay, and... his final episode which I don't want to spoil.
I’m watching feat of clay part 1 and now to watch part 2. This is just amazing. I grew up with BTAS and I’ll watch it till my last breathe. I will make sure my kids watch this masterpiece.
Anyone remember the episode where Robin helps a girl Clayface accidentally created when he split apart of himself off? That episode had some Kingdom Hearts styled existential BS....
I timestamped all the transition even the small one at the middle. That was very well edited, thanks a lot. 0:15 - 0:21 - 0:44 - 1:04 - 1:17 - 1:19 - 1:38 - 1:56 - 2:25 - 3:07 - 3:16
Mr Freeze, truly tragic as it is, for some bizarre reason pales in comparison to Clay Face. Mr Freeze deep down knew his beloved Nora could never be saved because of the fact that he was stealing funds to keep her alive until technology was advanced enough to save her, a feat he knew was desperate in and of itself, but THIS. This is heart wrenching to its core. To be rendered absolutely obsolete, to be despised, and to have absolutely no one to love you, not even your own self, is truly a tragedy that has no comparison. His sadness is almost unbearable to behold because sadly, it relates so much to real life and that it is scary.
One of the saddest things is that his stunt double probably the only other person who cared about him apart from Batman, but due to his state of mind, hopelessness and depression, the only thing he could do was to push him away. Because of the prison of his circumstances, he in turn made himself prisoner of his own mind.
1:56-2:24 one of the best scenes in the whole series and one of the best soundtracks. This moment made Clayface one of my favorites. Gives me chills everytime.
The score is beautiful, especially when Batman turned on the screens to Matt Hagan's career perfectly juxtaposed to what he is now as Clayface. Hagan was a man who was able to portray a wide variety of characters simply through his talents and passion, but as Clayface, he can practically turn himself into anything he wants whenever he wants. In becoming Clayface, he lost what Matt Hagan had that made him special.
Am I the only one who wants Clayface to be part of Matt Reeves trilogy? Not a main villain, but still part of the series. Bring back Ron Perlman to do the voice.
All of Batman villains Clayface was the only one i felt sorry for while being scared of at the same. Even Joker as chaotic there was always a sense of fun when he had to face off against Batman. But Clayface always seemed angry and resentful as if Batman was only in his way.
While some often connect this theme to Matt Hagen or even Karlo himself, part of me often hears this theme connected to the rather tragic Preston Payne incarnation.
@@edwardgaines6561but she had feelings she could think she might have been part of clayface but in her sort time existing she was as human as anyone I feel so bad for Robin they became such good friends…
@@edwardgaines6561 “she wasn’t a real human being” yes the fuck she was. She breathed, lived and had emotions like every other human. You’re just as cold as Clayface in that respect. Unfortunately, there’s too many people like you in the world. It’s not like killing the robot you made at all. Anne wasn’t metal ffs. She was fucking flesh with real emotions, not simulated or programmed like a robot. By your logic, Clayface himself isn’t a real human since he’s clay now. What is this soulless thinking and why do so many of you carry it? No wonder I hate people.
The music is probably why I like Feat of clay more than Heart of Ice (the score in Heart of Ice is GREAT, but I think that Feet of Clay has the superior theme.
I personally prefer this Clayface over Harley Quinn TAS Clayface, the Clayface in that is funny, but I don’t think it fits his character, Batman TAS Clayface is more tragic and more sympathetic in a way that makes you feel for the character

The funny thing is just like clay; He can be molded by the people he's around.... If you surround him by heroes then he becomes like them. Surround him by villains...and the same is said. Truly a sad sympathy of Clayface...
"My career. My life. It is gone. And I can never get it back. I'm not an actor any more. I'm not even...a man."
Those lines always get me
I felt sorry for clayface when he said that.
