    I love the idea of them... I just can't get into the comics /at all/. I guess they're too big to be easy to write?

    Also: I'm at odds with pretty much the whole GL fandom. Hal Jordan pisses me off, Kyle Rayner is awesome and John Stuart was pretty much my favourite character in the JLU show, after the Question.

    It's about fucking time we got back.

    So, I watched a lot of JLU during the downtime.

    Savage Time wins so hard for Blackhawks and Sgt. Rock.


    Hurrah for the return of the forums!

    Not, it's not Timm and Dini. The three producers all worked on Justice League. Two of them also worked on The Batman, and the third is James Tucker. It is not meant to fit with the rest of the DCAU, so don't bother trying. It's not based off of Dini's LoSH episode or anything. And I swear to god I am doing an episode summary the second I get home from work so you people have something to talk about other than whining about a show you haven't even seen yet.

    I'm more of a jet pack man, myself.

    Those designs are still ridiculous, though. well, half of them. I don't know any names, so I'm going to make comic-fans gag here, but Superman/kid/boy/wtfever looks decent, the guy to the right of him with the lightning theme looks decent(cool, even), the person between the two girls looks pretty good, the girls and the remaining guy look like someone spilled something very bad into the gene pool.

    Again, I am sorry for not knowing any names, I don't really follow most comic/comic-based-tv-show things too much.

    It has nothing to do with that. In the comics she has never had that kind of look (correct me if Im wrong). I personally think the designer saw a picture of a George Perez Raven and said.."Shit...change the colors and give it a cartoony look, and we've got ourselves a Saturn Girl."

    I dont really care for Braniac 5's look. He looks like he's going to be the goofy runt of the team, unlike how he's portrayed in the comics.

    So what do you guys think? Who would sing what songs? I think Bats and Dinana should totally have an asowme love song by full moon light. And we NEED a Question Song of some kind, I'm trying to come up with ideas for songs, and lyrics if possible...but I have to do it at work, where I have alot of free time...kinda.

    So looking at the credits on IMDB, Timm isn't even listed as a producer. The closest the writer has come to the DCAU is "The Batman." The art style sort of gave us the impression it would be the same good ol' folk as before, but really, it's not. Curt Geda is there directing, and some of the voice actors are back as well, but that's about it. There's two people on the cast that don't have a character next to them, Powers Boothe and Lance Henriksen. On JLU, Powers Boothe is the voice of Grodd, it seems he is Luthor in this film, and the other dude is Brainiac.

    Also, this comment from that review bugged me:

    "Nothing against George Newbern, but Daly does it better, especially the difference in voice between Superman and Clark."

    Newbern voiced him through JL(U). How many times did Clark even show up? A quick count says 6 times (A recount says more like 4-5). How can you really even make that a fair comparison?

    I'm, uh, going to go out on a limb and say that you can't?

    I really hope that's the answer you're looking for.

    In other news, I finally started getting the DCAU on DVD. Seasons One and Two of Batman TAS. Wow. I forgot how much "Heart of Ice" kicked ass. Chicken Soup for The Batman's Soul. If no one has asked yet, I humbly request to Jordyn that she add it to her "DCAU review" backlog.

    Time for another one of these ordeals!

    Last night I watched The Enemy Below, the third episode (or 6th & 7th if you prefer), and the debut of Aquaman on the series. I never used to watch this episode very much, and I'm not exactly sure why, since it's a pretty good episode. For one thing though, there's no Flash. And Aquaman can be such a dick. I think 3/4ths of this episode is him and Green Lantern just being dicks to each other.

    The episode starts with a US submarine getting too close to Atlantis, I guess. Aquaman says they violated the "soveriegn borders of Atlantis" but seriously, I think he actually means "any water any where" when he says that. I half expect him to beat people up for taking showers. The sub has a chick on it, which while I'm all for gender equality, I'm pretty sure women are actually not allowed to serve on subs. Something about guys trying to have sex with them in torpedo tubes I'm sure.

    womansub.jpg

    So the Atlanteans attack the sub, with the tried and true method of "run into it."

    ramming.jpg

    And the Justice League shows up to help, in the Javelin, which can apparently go underwater.

    javunderwater.jpgoutofjav.jpg

    I don't know how they got out of it.

    They save the dudes, but Aquaman only lets them take the people, even though IT'S A NUCLEAR SUB! And GL gets his panties in quite the bunch. Aquaman goes home to his hot wife.

    Mera.jpg

    Back on the Watchtower, we experiment with cheap ways to animate a scene.

    shadows.jpg

    Meanwhile, Aquaman apparently walks to shore and is a dick at the World Assembly. Then as he's leaving, someone shoots at him. Well, at his feet. With a rocket.

    rocketfeet.jpg

    Though he was apparently aiming somewhere else.

    crotchaim.jpg

    So they rush him to the hospital where all the doctors are befuddled until someone shows up.

    Batmanreveal.jpgisitbatman.jpg

    OH MY GOD I COULDN'T TELL IT WAS BATMAN BY THE VOICE!

    Batman tells them to put him in water, oh thank god. I didn't know hospitals had giant tubes. I also didn't know water can cure wounds from a goddamn rocket. Like, if I get shot underwater, and crazy seadoctors are trying to fix me, simply putting me into a tube of air isn't going to solve all my problems. I guess I'll stop drowning. While he's in the tube, GL gets grumpy again.

    aquamantube.jpgGLtap.jpg

    DO NOT TAP GLASS GL.

    Oh, and somewhere in there Orm showed up, because we needed someone else who is a dick and also wears horrible little short thingies.

    Orm.jpg

    It is time to catch a bad guy! Wonder Woman catches guys with large amounts of property damage, and then just goes in a grate anyway.

    roaddamage.jpg

    The bad guy was Deadshot, and they crash his van which then blows up, but I'm not really sure why.

    vanexplode.jpg

    Deadshot is voiced by Micheal Rosenbaum (aka The Flash), only now he is sort of doing a Kevin Spacey impression, which is pretty rad. He was hired to kill Aquaman and paid in piles of gold DUBLOONS, which I kept saying over and over for some reason last night. DUBLOONS. I never got the "being paid in gold" thing because I have no idea where I would spend gold. Can I take gold to Best Buy and get a big TV? Can I go to the car lot and give them gold for a new car?

    The JL figures out that the plot to kill Aquaman is from someone in Atlantis! So they go to warn him but Orm and his octopus generals have already captured him and are totally gonna kill him. His generals all have octopi on their chests, by the way. I think rank is determined by number of legs, which wouldn't really make them octopi. Or...disfigured octopi.

    octopusarmorjpg.jpg

    Orm takes Aquaman and his kid and hang them from a mountain thingy, before sending them to their deaths. My favourite line in this episode is where Orm is about to kill them and says "Well, I'm off to avenge your deaths."

    In the meantime, the JL has gotten captured by some Atlantis folk who are going to drown them. For some reason, they have a drowning chamber. Even though anyone who would drown would have to go through a bunch of WATER to get there. It'd be like if we had a chamber to kill someone which we filled with air. They'd have to go through air to get here in the first place. I tried to make some analogy to Framling about this last night but I ended up talking about space people and he kept looking at me like I was crazy so I gave up. Anyway, drowning chamber.

    drowningchamber.jpg

    Mera saves them and while we're waiting Aquaman is being a badass by chopping off his hand with what is apparently the sharpest belt buckle ever. On the commentary, they stated how important it was that the blanket the kid was wrapped in be red. IT MUST BE RED.

    gonnachop.jpghandchop.jpg

    He goes to a doctor to get it fixed. Maybe the doctor should just put him in some water because oh god water water he is teh Aquaman!

    handfixing.jpg

    While we're all not doing much, Orm has set off this thing meant to melt the polar ice caps so that there's water everwhere, which aquapeople would love. Aquaman and the JL go to stop him. And we get a couple things that are necessary for an Aquaman episode.

    1. Talking to sealife.

    killerwhale.jpg

    2. Concentric circles.

    concentricircles.jpg

    I like the part where this guy is falling, so J'onn catches him. But then drops him anyway.

    jonncatch.jpgjonndrop.jpg

    I love this picture when Orm electrident's Aquaman.

    electroAquaman.jpg

    Those two start duking it out in the Glacier of a Million Bridges!

    bridge1.jpgbridge2.jpg
    bridge3.jpg

    Until Orm is a dangling.

    Ormdangling.jpg

    "SCAR! BROTHER! HELP ME!"

    GL and Batman take care of the whole melty thing, and Aquaman lets his dickhead brother plummet.

    So, that's The Enemy Below.

    p.s. Deadshot's butt.
