Added DiffLines:
* AllStarCast: ''LEGO DC Super-Villains'' features a lot of the same talent as the previous game, but also has names like Creator/JohnBarrowman, Creator/MichaelIronside, Creator/MichaelDorn, and Creator/MarkHamill all reprising their roles, and several more actors that were from the DCAU, like Creator/KevinConroy, Creator/MichaelRosenbaum, and Creator/SusanEisenberg.
* AwesomeDearBoy: Aside from SoMyKidsCanWatch, [[http://t.co/uvUUijOk0c Stephen Amell confirmed]] that this is one reason he returned to voice Green Arrow.
* FakeAmerican: The English Creator/RobinAtkinDownes voices numerous Americans, such as Firefly.
* FakeBrit:
** Ike Amadi gives Gorilla Grodd a British accent despite being American.
** The British Alfred Pennyworth was voiced by Keith Ferguson and Steve Blum (both of whom were American) for the first two ''Batman'' games. This changed in ''Beyond Gotham'' when Robin Atkin Downes took over the role.
* IKnewIt: After [[http://www.reddit.com/r/arrow/comments/27a23j/stephen_amell_to_voice_a_character_in_lego_batman/ Stephen Amell let slip that he was doing more voice work for a DC game]], many people guessed he'd be in ''LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham''. They were right.
* MilestoneCelebration: There is a DLC Pack for ''LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham'' that features different skins for Batman and some of his various supporting characters from the 75 years he's been around.
* TheOtherDarrin: A good chunk of the voice cast changes for ''LEGO Batman 3''.
** Aquaman is voiced by Scott Porter, instead of Creator/BrianBloom. Similarly, Creator/BumperRobinson plays Cyborg [[WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueDoom again]], taking Bloom's place.
** Creator/JoshKeaton takes over as Green Lantern and Nightwing from Creator/CamClarke and also takes over the role of ComicBook/{{Shazam}} from Creator/TravisWillingham.
** Creator/DeeBradleyBaker takes over from Creator/TroyBaker as Braniac, and Creator/MarcWorden also takes Troy's place as Sinestro. Troy in turn takes over from Joseph Balderrama as Killer Moth, and also replaces Creator/NolanNorth as Hush.
** Creator/LauraBailey takes over as Catwoman from Katherine Von Till. Creator/GreyGriffin takes over in ''Lego DC Supervillains''.
** Creator/RobPaulsen is replaced by Creator/RogerCraigSmith as the Riddler. Creator/WallyWingert takes over for ''LEGO DC Supervillains''.
** In ''Lego Batman 2'', Creator/SteveBlum voiced Bane, but in the third game, Creator/JBBlanc [[VideoGame/BatmanArkhamOrigins reprised the role]].
** Christopher Corey Smith, who had played The Joker since ''LEGO Batman 2'', was replaced by Creator/MarkHamill for ''LEGO DC Supervillains''.
** Creator/TroyBaker was replaced with Creator/KevinConroy for Batman in ''LEGO DC Supervillains''.
** Creator/LauraBailey was replaced by Creator/SusanEisenberg for Wonder Woman in ''LEGO DC Supervillains''.
** Creator/TravisWillingham played Darkseid and Kalibak in ''LEGO Batman 3'', but come ''DC Supervillains'', the two are now played by Creator/MichaelIronside and Creator/MichaelDorn again.
** Creator/MichaelRosenbaum replaces Charlie Schlatter as the Flash for ''DC Supervillains''.
* PlayingAgainstType: In the first game, Creator/SteveBlum portrays Batman, Killer Croc (a role he would go on to play without the Simlish in ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamAsylum'' and ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamCity''), the Joker, Two-Face, and, of all characters, [[ButtMonkey Killer Moth]].
* RealSongThemeTune: Music/{{Wolfmother}}'s "Joker & the Thief" was heard in the main menu of ''DC Super-Villains''.
* RefittedForSequel: Darkseid was planned to be playable in ''LEGO Batman 2'', but was dropped, with the only hints left being [[DummiedOut unusable character data]]. He was in the final batch of DLC characters in ''LEGO Batman 3''.
* RoleReprise: Joe Alaskey comes back as the voice of Green Loontern from WesternAnimation/DuckDodgers after having a falling-out with Warner Bros some years prior and not having voiced any Looney Tunes characters since then. It would also be his final voice performance as a Looney Tunes character before his death in 2016.
* ShowAccuracyToyAccuracy: ''DC Super-Villains'' notably veers away from toy accuracy and toward show accuracy, a rarity for the LEGO games. Of the characters who have real-world minifigs, very few actually resemble the toys.
* SoMyKidsCanWatch: In [[http://t.co/uvUUijOk0c this interview]], Stephen Amell admitted that one of the main reasons for his reprising Green Arrow was so his young daughter could see something that he was in. AwesomeDearBoy factored into it too.
* TrollingCreator:
** Due to fan demand for ComicBook/{{Raven}} for ''Beyond Gotham'', the official Twitter account started teasing fans about it. Firstly, they jokingly asked if she was even that popular, then pretended to confuse her for Creator/RavenSymone by tweeting "[=#RevealRavenSymone=]". Finally they agreed to reveal Ra...[[spoiler:'s Al Ghul]].
** One of the Post-Credits sequences in LEGO Batman 3 features [[http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20141115012428/lego/images/e/e2/Endcredits.png a silhouetted group shot that appear]] to be [[Creator/MarvelComics another company's]] iconic characters. [[spoiler:Only it turns out they're Black Canary, Aquaman, Nightwing, Swamp Thing, Shazam!, Booster Gold, and Green Arrow]].
* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** According to [[TheWikiRule Brickipedia]], the Lord of Apokolips himself, {{ComicBook/Darkseid}}, has character data that can be found by [[DummiedOut digging through the game files]] in ''LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes''. Darkseid is a playable character, however, in DLC for ''LEGO Batman 3''.
** Nora Fries, the cryogenically frozen wife of Mr. Freeze, was also planned, but possibly scrapped due to lack of importance and canonically not making sense as a playable character.
** ''LEGO DC Super-Villains'' at one point had Renee Montoya as a playable character and had a crime mechanic that worked more like the ones found in ''LEGO Marvel’s Avengers'' and ''LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2''.
