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.
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.

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 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
