It&#8217;s a trick question, of course, because <em>nothing<\/em> is better than stop-motion animation except maybe stop-motion animation featuring Batman. That must make this stop-motion animation featuring Batman the best thing <em>ever<\/em> &#8211; even better than the Prestik monster stop-motion animation I made in high school.<\/p>\n<p>The mini-film is a trailer made by Derek Kwok and Henri Wong for something called Batman: Dark Knightfall, and features the new range of ultra-realistic Batman collectibles from Hot Toys, including Batman, Jim Gordon, and Joker. The collectibles aren&#8217;t even available to the public yet, which probably explains why the film is made &#8220;special thanks to Hot Toys&#8221;. I bet the guys even got to keep them afterwards, or maybe they just skipped the country. That&#8217;s what I would do.
