I used to love this series a lot more. Probably cause it was the younger me or whatever, but over the years I've started seeing the flaws with how they go about this more and more.
It's still fun to watch, pitting two different characters against each other. However as a writer and actor myself... I'm getting tired of the way they set these battles up and wish they'd actually try with more of a story in each episode. Like they hardly give a reason for each character to fight the other at all in most cases. Or they kick it off for the stupidest of reasons.
This is one way that I like Super Power Beat Down far better in they actually think about why these characters would be fighting and set it up a lot better. That and Beat Down doing it in live action is awesome. I think Death Battle only did a live action episode once, and then never did it again despite saying they were going to.
That said, I still enjoy this show and have seen every episode (I think). I also tried to watch their podcast a couple times but keep falling out of it.
Despite the flaws and them getting things wrong, the bat writing at times, I still enjoy it enough to say 4 stars.
Mistake Status: I pick at it here and there. I may at some point go through every episode more closely but I wanna do Super Power Beat Down first.
Starscream VS Rainbow Dash - S1-E17
Continuity mistake: Rainbow Dash catches Star Scream in a tornado and spins him around so fast in his jet form that you see one of his wings break off and fall away. He plummets to the ground and transforms into his robot form and begins to beg for his life. He suddenly has both wings again at this point.
Nightwing VS Daredevil (DC VS Marvel) - S5-E12
Nightwing: What are you?
Daredevil: Better. (00:16:10)
Trivia: Ben and Chad have stated in the past that if they ever do a series finale, that the very last episode of Death Battle would be between the two hosts of the show, Wiz and Boomstick.
