I really like that Amazo fight, it was done quite well and the animation is really great. Watching those clips makes me miss the Justice League cartoon. It seems like the recent chain of comic cartoons have been very kid oriented.
I know cartoons are generally aimed at kids but the JL/JLU show was great because a lot of the episodes were adapted from comic story lines and it just had a more mature theme compared to DCs current animations. Of course it's not all bad since they give the older audience the one shot dvd releases all of which have been good.
The Doomsday fight from the movie destroyed like half the city, when he fought CM in JLU they only destroyed a few buildings in a park square or something.
The fight with DD only destroyed a huge part of the city because of the explosion at the end of the fight. In the fight with CM, I punch destroyed a building like nothing.
CM fight was very short. However, it that amount of time one of their punches destroy huge buildings. They acted like there were no walls. Against doomsday, it took a lot more punches to destroy a building(besides the explosion and Superman tossing DD to a building)

Well I hate when I see a fight with Superman (or anybody else) and they destruction they cause is so small. In reality, a fight between Superman and anyone else his level should destroy a huge part of the city. I love to see a fight between titans and the damage they cause. It add to the intensity. The hair of my back rose up when I first saw the fight with CM and Superman; Same goes with Superman and DD (the soundtrack had something to do with it )
I agree with that, but I disagree with the level of destruction making a fight great. Emotional involvment/stakes etc are what matter most, at least to me.
But if you're into that sort of stuff, you'll probably like this.. (not to mention it has both sides of what we're looking for in a fight)
Basically, they're hitting eachother so hard that the world breaks, time/space shatters and they experience eachother's lifes and it is hinted that perhaps the whole Superman Blue/Superman Red deal from a few years back is a result of this fight.

I think you misunderstood me. When I said I like destruction. I mean I like it in a show/movie; not a book. Also, you are right! the story, the emotional involvement..etc is what adds to the intensity of the fight. They all help each other.
Now the reason why I didn't like DD vs Superman fight to much is because they really didn't portray DD like they did in the comics. They tried to get the fight over with just so they can get on with the movie. In CM, they story wasn't to go, but it the fighting was nice. Two heroes, and Lex right in the middle. Idk, but I liked it more.
From the top of my head, the fight with Mandrakk was very nice. The ending was also very good. In his tombstone it said.. To be continue.. To me that was the end of Mandrakk. It meant that Mandrakk couldn't beat Superman's story. Idk, just my opinion
