wow. not what i was expecting at all, and yet i'm looking forward to it. love the animation style... it's like a less blocky jlu...

james woods. that is all.

It seems like they are replacing Anti-Monitor with Owlman and changing the story around.

it's not crisis on infinite earths...

A friend and I went to a casting call many months ago for voice actors that they had in North Hollywood. I was auditioning for Batman and my friend went in for Supes. They told me they liked my voice, but I sounded a bit too young to be Batman, but then I didn't know which version of Batman they were gonna use. My friend didn't get the part either, and there was so much talent at that voice casting audition. Well, seems like they've chosen Billy Baldwin to be Batman, good job...

Where's Daly, Conroy, and Brown?

So what, Owl Man is behind the plot to kill the multiverse?! Owl Man.



I'll watch it anyway. But really.

There's taking off on the JLA graphic novel Earth-2 - by Grant Morrison & Frank Quitely - where the alternate Luthor from the negative matter universe comes to recruit the JLA to help his world.
This is no original story by Dwayne(Armbar)McDuffie.

I'm wondering if Kevin will be doing the voice for Earth 2 Batman.

It more closely takes off from 'JLA: Earth 2' by Grant Morrison & Frank Quitely.

I know, that's what I was thinking but the end of the trailer convinced me a little. He seems to have a certain logic to him that makes it plausible.

Looks cool. I'm eager to see what the Spectre short is all about, too.

Yeah just saw that as well. Def gonna buy it now for The Spectre. DC just needs to keep pushing out others then just the same old.

owlman vs batman should be epic.

edit: website posted release date is 02-23-2010.

^ yep. blockbuster will have the dvd in on the 23rd too here in Canada.

looking forward to it.

Is it me or does The Spectre looks like Hal Jordan?!

The last part of that trailer: "Because its the only action with any meaning" gave me chills. I am so 100% on board for this movie even if it isn't a DCAU movie.

Yes and they in turn were based on the original Crime Syndicate.
Its based on many comics but to me it looks to be a cross between COIE and JLA Earth 2 more than anything.

This is pretty good, cant stand Supes voice though....its horrible

Actually most of the voices are bad.

Story is too short.

Even though Owlman vs Batman was too short, its the best fight.

Nuul, you watched it?

Yes.

What I cant stand is the shortness of the comic animated movies. Like most of the non comic films are around , 92 - 98 minutes but the comic animated movie are around 72 - 81 minutes. IMO they are way too short, they picked out a part of the bigger story and used that. Ultimate Avengers actually made good usage of the story and action. That Batman Gotham Knight is good also. The new comic animated films are way too short on plot and too much on action. Imagine what they will do to the SCW? they will butcher that great story by only using a small part of it with most of the film with action.


These type are films are getting worst as time goes on.


They are also way over priced for a short animated movie.

The ending is Batman could have thrown the fight or got his ass kicked in by Owlman but mannnnn he fcked over Owlman. It was awesome!

First off, I couldn't stand the voice of Batman. Superman's voice wasn't very good either, but it was a lot more tolerable than Batman's imo. And Owlman voiced by James Woods? Really?
srsly

Anyhow, bad character voices were a small price to pay. The movie itself was quite enjoyable overall (plus it was nice to finally see Firestorm involved with one of these things, even though he didn't do much)... I would definitely recommend it.

This is better than Public Enemies. But the voices suck.

voices were HORRIBLE especially bats

we can make it together we can do this ? i paused the movie 1st thing after hearing that i was like no way that has to be the lex from another dimension or we got one crappy writer

why does static shock look like john stewart ?

static shock was in the movie?



the movie itself, i have to say i really enjoyed it. sure the voices weren't what i'd imagined, but tbh, if any of us have gotten used to the conroys and the newburns from JLU and beyond, it's going to be hard to listen to anyone else play those roles. i thought the guys that did their roles did so competently, and for the most part, i really enjoyed the movie (with some action sequences being pretty sweet, like the fight between the "reserves" and the made men).

also, i'm pretty sure i saw a captain marvel cameo. anyone else catch it?

I didnt see him, Black Lightning comes in with Firestorm and its not Static.


And YES BL is black just like John, thats how hes supposed to be.

facepalm

facepalm wasnt just talking about the skin color. his face looks like john stewart from the justice league animated series. in the comics black lightning doesnt look exactly like john stewart as well

Enjoyed it. It felt like sometimes Bats voice sounded like Lex, and vise versa. Owlman was badass in this.

Is this out yet?

I agree, the films definitely seem to short when you consider the mediocrity of the animation. I understand that these movies can't be too long because a profit needs to be made but better animation and writing could be put into them. Choosing no name voice actors could save quite a bit of money too. If the length of the movie compromises the writing then just make a series. My biggest complaint is still the animation and for, Marvel, my complaint is their desire to focus primarily on the youth demographic.

This movie definitely had it's problems. The biggest problem i found, other than the voice acting was the story. The story wasn't bad and it was very well paced, leaving much time for action but i think they would have been better suited telling the infinite crises story and breaking it up into a couple movies.

It was very nice to see a feature length movie that isn't a goddamn origin story. As good as those can be, i'm really sick of all the damn origin stories. This may not be the strongest DC animated venture but i don't think it was a failure. The action was great and the story was passable. The voice acting, however was just horribly miscast. I think this one is on par with, Public enemies though. OF the recent animated movies, Gotham Knight and Green Lanter; first flight are probably better.

I watched the movie this morning. Like many before have said, the voice of Batman and Superman are atrocious. Though, after 40 minutes or so passed, the voice of Superman did bother me as much. I hated batman's throughout the movie.

I liked the actions, it was there throughout the movie. Though, the last fight was kind of disappointing. The story was very nice, but like someone here said, it very similar to the JLU episode.

I loved how they explaining the Multiverse theory. Very interesting

Worst voices ever.

Batman was horrible.

Luthor wasn't luthor.

ugh....voice acting MAKES the characters.

Only dislike, was Batman voice.

James Woods was good.

Were those Shazam triplets?

I didn't like Bats voice but that one-liner he gave to owl-man almost made up for it. Almost.

Correct, if they are going to do plots that are based off of a big stories then the animated films should be broken up into 1-3 parts. And they can still keep them at around 75-96 minutes each.

Anybody notice how WW was the only person that no matter who she fought she kicked the shit out of them with little to no problem except for maybe one exception.

She didn't fight someone tough as boss of bosses.

It was cool to see an alternate reality version of Slade as the President

She didn't fight someone tough as boss of bosses. ] Even so compare his fight with superwoman to WW. I personally think they downplayed Superman to give everyone else shine time . Thats rare

I kinda liked it - but so far I still think the Hulk vs Thor film is my favourite. Definitely the best fight scene EVER in Hulk vs Thor - I got SO MUCH respect for Thor after that!

I'm kind of a Mark Harmon fan - have watched all the NCIS episodes - so I kept on waiting for Supes to say, "Ya think, DeNozzo?"

Would have been real cool if they got him to say, "Ya think, Batman?"

;-)

The Made Men seemed a lot like evil versions of the Marvel Family: Captain Marvel, Captain Marvel Jr. and Uncle Marvel.

I think they were primarily based off of them, myself. Nice to see them (sorta) get more showings in animated media.

^ Yeah, especially when Super Woman was like, light up the sky, and they called down the lightning. The uniforms even resembled the Marvel families.

Wow, so basically in h2h Owlman>Batman. Must be because of the strength in Owlman's suit plus Owlman is trained to kill, and Batman is trained to fight.

For all the people who didn't like the animation, i'm curious: What style would you have preferred?

Watched it last week, better than I expected. It was better than Public Enemies, Luthor/Supes and Grodd/Batman fights almost ruined that film.

Overall good movie with some inconsistencies (WW having problems with Owlman, I know he wears a powersuit but c'mon). I didn't mind the voices, Conroy is miles better than the guy who did Bats, but he did a decent enough job.

BM had a broken rib

Great to see the marvel in DCAU, when will they do kingdom come

what was lex saying that the made men were 'almost' as powerful as superwoman ...pfft yh right

maybe captain super was weaeker than her due to power sharing

all in all good film

8/10

Better than Planet Hulk

And what is this bitchin about Batman's voice? Dude, any of you had to put up with Olan Soule voice back in the old cartoon would praise this Batman's voice!

Fair cartoon would change a few things...but who am I to complain?

Blasphemy!

Kevin Conroy IS batman.

I'd rather batman have no dialogue than be voiced by anyone else. It feels like a fraud when someone else voices him.

Kevin Conroy will never be equaled when it comes to Batman's voice. If only they could super-impose his voice over Bale's. Actually I'm sure they could but Christy would probably object to his glorious "SWEAR TO ME!" getting axed.

You're close.

This was actually based off of the movie that was suppose to come between Justice League and Justice League Unlimited. Most of the original screenplay is still in there (the invisible jet, rebuilding the watchtower, new League recruits, etc.). That's my one gripe with the whole thing. I just wish they would've done the movie they had planned to, instead.

Loved this movie and James Woods as Owlman was great

Decent movie. Loved how Bruce defeated Superwoman and his fight with Owlman.
