According to AICN, and a youtube video that has since been pulled, the next DC animated movie after Green Lantern: First Flight, is Public Enemies, based on the comic arc of the same name...

Sweet.

i 'll buy it..

I'm there.

Hopefully the original scribe- Jeph Loeb - is not involved.

COOL!

Public Enemies is about my favorite arc from the comics series.

For anyone who hasn't seen it yet, here's the trailer:

bloody awesome. it even looks like mcguinness' art come to life.

^ Looks OK. The art doesn't look as good as the animated JL movie that came out last year<or year before that>.

I'll buy that for a dollar!!

Superman/Batman: Public Enemies is one of DC's best works. Great action with lots of cameos (even if Powergirl is less "bombastic" than I usually like), great characterization; there's even a Batkick! They do this right, they could have a Best Animated Feature award-nominee on their hands.

They used Ed McGuinness artwork from the comics. It looks great, I can't wait. Jessica Alba is HOT!

I'm guessing kgkg has'nt seen any of Ed McGuinness artwork.

Thanks for sharing the trailer.

The animation looks questionable to me but it definitely looks far superior to that piece of trash, Superman Doomsday. Batman looks great but Superman still looks a bit ridiculous. I know it's a cheap animated movie, so we're not going to get Gotham Knight animation but one can dream. I'm just sick...,damn sick of that crappy saturday morning cartoon animation.

This is good but not great.

its out?

Yup...

Awesome fights though.

Wasn't it Captain Atom that flew the rocket into the meteor and not Batman?

Watched it. Not sure what to think, to be honest...

I actually enjoyed this movie quite a bit. DC is definitely taking the right steps into maturity with their animated movies. Up until we meet the Toy Man and his invention i thought the movie was well written. They really really REALLY could have devised a better way for Batman and Superman to destroy that meteor other than a giant mech that resembled them.

the same stupid thing happened in the comic, they wanted to keep it

I want to watch this badly. The art in it looks nice.

Didnt like it. The jokes were funny and the voices were a welcome but there were too many heroes thrown into it causing characters (I am lookin at you capton atom) to come off borderline retarded. I thought the gl movie was better.

I watched it yesterday night. The movie was okay. The voice actors were really bad(except Batman). The fight was pretty bad except one scene. I liked the story though. Very interesting.

Is this movie out yet? I want to get the special edition that has the action figure. I got the First Flight Green Lantern figure and it rocks.

How old are you again?

Why?

Because got the action figure....

I am curious, it doesn't mean nothing.

What are the extra cartoons that come in the second disc in the 2-disc set?

Coming out tomorrow...MUST SEE!

I'm 25 and i collect toys. I don't think i'll ever stop collecting them. I supported myself for two years by buying and selling toys. Some people don't realize just how many toys are made for adults.

I buy the DCU Classics figures when i can, and have a few dozen of them already. The Public Enemies figures are based on the same line, they just have differently sculpted heads.

For example:

Public Enemies Superman is the second one in. The rest are standard DCUC figures...

Just watched it and liked it very much. I remember the book vividly having read it a year ago. I haven't seen Wonder Woman or First Flight but this film for me was a vast improvement over First Frontier and Marvel's recent line of animated films(besides Ultimate Avengers 1 & 2 and Hulk vs. Wolverine). This shits on everything else in comparison. Great to see Conroy, Daly, and Brown reprise their roles. The animation was good and it's refreshing to see something not biting off of anime. The humor IMO was great and for the most part the film stayed true to the book from what I remember. Love to see more of these qualities of films from DC and Marvel.

If First Flight>Public Enemies I'll have to check it out. Is Wonder Woman any good?

i was pleasantly surprised by it. i'd definitely recommend wonder woman...

most of the character voices were... meh. i also felt too many characters were thrown into the mix. overall though, it was enjoyable.


on a sidenote, did anyone else catch the part where toyman said his IQ was 210? for all the gadgets that punk built, i'd of though it would have been WAY higher.... makes you wonder what batman m* could do with his IQ of 1045. heh.

yeah. i thought he'd be smarter.

power girl was the worst offender voice wise, imo...

PG's voice was horrid.

it would have made a good kara though.

agreed. i thought captain atom's was ok. i liked major force's. metallo was doctor cox, so i can't complain about that...

I just bought this today. I'll be watching it tonight. I just hope that it's better than Superman: Doomsday was.

It is.

I just finished watching Superman/Batman: Public Enemies.

This movie was SO much fun. I loved all of the cameos and the great voice acting from Kevin Conroy, Tim Daly, and Clancy Brown.

Some things I disliked about the film:

-Bane was taken down so quickly and easily.
-Mr. Freeze had no lines for his cameo.
-Superman was, obviously, de-powered.
-Power Girl had a shitty voice actress.


All together, this movie was lots of fun, and I loved the storyline. 9/10

Ummm, it was disappointing. You guys are bitching about the voice acting that wasn't that bad. I appreciated the comic more so than the film. It was ok though.

I thought it was good, but too quick. Plus Bane got beat too easily.

I think that was a homeage to the BTAS episode when Batman fights Bane. He pulled the same tactic. Would have love to hear Bane say "I will break you!"

If there's one thing that's always bugged me, it's that Bane never gets any media respect. He's never the cold, calculating, battle tactic freak that he was in the comics.

Yeah I know. They should bring that back...maybe make a Knightfall Animated movie.

Best line of the film:

Grundy: "Grundy not feel so good"

Batman: "Grundy gonna feel a LOT worse!"

Comics aren't worth sh!t now because of downloading. I quite buying comics 2 years ago.

Good flick, but as mentioned Bane got dissed, and a few of the fight scenes felt choppy and short.

other than that, loved the art style, voice work and most of the storyline.

So now they've adapting the second story arc but renamed the title

I love that arc. SWEET! they better not fck it up.

This is great. Same voice actors I presume? I'm not familiar with that arc, does it involve Luthor?

Glad to see they're also doing a Green Arrow film.

No luthor....has Darkseid in it tho.

I saw that on the cover.

The best part is this!


Fan favorites Tim Daly (Private Practice) and Kevin Conroy (China Beach) return to their seminal roles as Superman and Batman, respectively.

great animated movie

Really loved this movie but just one thing. Explain to me why NO ONE! thought to use Captain Marvel to save the world?
