For example, Bane's backstory of being born and raised in a prison, and the inclusion of [[spoiler: Talia al Ghul.]]

** Fans originally cringed big time at the announcement of a movie, fearimg something akin to what happened to ''The Smurfs'' and ''Alvin and the Chipmunks''. Fans were overwhelmingly happy when the first trailer came out because: A. No live action. B. It doesn't try to awkwardly modernize the series. C. It is an AllCGICartoon done in a non-traditional style that resembles a watercolor traditionally animated cartoon,

** American fans were ecstatic about the ''rating'' of all things. It has a "G" rating. In recent years "PG" has become the new "G", with films that would have previously been "G" in TheNineties like ''Disney/{{Frozen}}'' getting the rating. "G" has mostly been regulated to preschooler fare instead of being for "General Audiences". With the G-rating fans are wondering if it might come back into popularity.

** The movie's panel during SDCC 2014 is several fandom rejoicing in quick succession. First we have the first official image of Gal in her Wonder Woman costume being released, which several fans are happy with, which is ''then'' topped by the panel dropping a teaser depicting Batman in his bat-armour from ''TheDarkKnightReturns'', shining the Batsignal on a spot in the sky--revealing Superman prepping his heat vision! The attendees went ''nuts''. To top it all off, ''Creator/HenryCavill'', ''Creator/BenAffleck'', and ''Gal Gadot'' all showed up for the panel, which marks the first time EVER that the Big Three--the Holy Trinity of DC--appeared together in the flesh!
