SOOOOOOOOO looking forward to this.
-
If that's the case then you know this movie is gonna kick ass!
-
But I like that they kept my six-pack abs.
-
so non-symmetric. ok, maybe not non-symmetric, you know what i mean
-
DC love at its best.
-
so how come some characters with masks have the whole "white eyes" thing going on, but Flash doesnt? wouldnt it make more sense to either have everyone with a mask have them or no one at all? gotta say though, got so used it over the years that Flash looks weeeeird without em. and i'm not complaining but its funny how they keep claiming they redesign Superman for this and that but he looks pretty much the same in every Timm related show/movie. Sure now his symbol looks like the old Fleisher cartoons but his head and body style....familiar. anyway this is bound to eventually air on YTV or something here in canada so i'll catch it then.
-
I like how it adopts a more mature tone to the subject matter. I personally did not care for the animation style, but it perhaps is a personal thing. NB: David Keith is the hardest work brother in the business...
-
I do that all the time. Same with Dylan McDermott and Dermot Mulroney.
-
i can't wait to see that scene animated.
-
the look on his face makes it
-
...and...yeah. I dont know. The animation is really weird. Looks almost cheap. Oh dont get distracted by the pictures above. The Art works well as a single picture but animated...not so much. I think that a single JLU show was better animated than this. But i have to say that Batman has the best line in the whole Movie. "Have a nice trip"
-
Yes, she does, and the reason she and Superman argue during that party is still very much in the movie.
-
It was set in the past. And they had to fight an island of dinosaurs. A bit odd. Just didn't gel right with me.
-
Granted I have only seen a couple clips and never read the book..but it seems to catch this sense of magic and wonder that to me that has been missing from some genre movies..epecially superhero movies since Superman 1
-
How has nobody else seen this yet? This is like, old news... I saw this flick about a month ago! Is America's release getting delayed or something?
-
No talent actress looks like Wonder Woman so she gets picked to voice the animated version? She should get down on her knees and thank whoever that her fanboy cred got this bone thrown to her.
-
It's a nice shape and proportion, not like the postage stamp of SR. Plus it looks slightly more like an alien symbol which could be mistaken for an "S" instead of a deliberate S.
-
Lucy's got talent, no doubt - did you watch her on BSG? She kicked ass.
-
That's what they're FOR! Well, that and laundry.
-
or is it Xena? Anyway, didn't know she went on to BSG and even though I've never seen that, I now know she's more talented than I thought. Yeardley Smith as WW? That's funny.
-
seriously
-
I watched a screener, and liked it enough to order it on Blu Ray. It's good, but not great and certainly not as brilliant as the book. Lucy Lawless is very appropriate and my stand outs favorites were Kyle McLachlan and Jeremy Sisto (he does a DAMN good Batman)
-
Whoever up above used this line as a COMPLAINT...yes, you ARE an idiot. The thing I enjoyed the MOST was the time period...they even kept the scene in which Hal Jordan has to kill a Korean soldier AFTER the war has been declared over. Also the movie is REALLY bloody...more so that Superman Doomsday.
-
is the flash. neil patrick harris' work is the only standout in an otherwise lackluster outing.
-
The voices are definitely the biggest problem with the movie. Not that they're bad, they just aren't right. But the animation is spiffy, the story is adapted quite well, and the scene with John Jones seeing Batman in the church is pretty awesome.
-
I agree, but disagree. I think Kyle McLachlan does a GREAT 50's Superman and Neil Patrick Harris' is wonderful as Flash. Most of the others fall to the wayside.As for the Jones/Batman interactions, I prefer the meetings in Jones' apartment/the Batcave...THOSE are some of the best representations of Batman on screen EVER!
"It took a 300'000 dollar sliver of meteorite for the one in Metropolis. All I need for you a penny for a book of matches."
Or when Jone's talks about leaving Earth and Jeremy Sisto fires back in PERFECT Batman tone "Have a nice trip. Some of us don't have that luxury." -
No Losers, No Suicide Squad, No Challengers of the Unkown...VERY LITTLE John Henry, Adam Strange, the Blackhawks and Green Arrow are limited to cameos....but the BEST PART is that the John F. Kennedy speech that ends the book is intact at the end of the movie. Great way to end it.

I wish DC actually had the balls to make a retro looking Justice
by smackfu
rather than one that looks virtually identical to their previous styles only with a retro looking box cover.
-
The Bruce Timm style (which HAS been heavily altered for this movie) is nearly identical to the original artwork in the NEW FRONTIER comics. As far as DC's balls, they have it over MARVEL in animation in SO MANY ways.
-
i agree with you regarding Batman and the Flash (the line about Supes was particularly awesome). but Bat's voice threw me off, though. when they first introduced him on screen (you didn't see him, all you heard was his voice), i thought Jones was talking to some old ass man or something.
-
Having seen it, I can say she's the right person to play Wonder Woman in live action, too. She sounded great. Batman threw me off, though. It's SO weird not hearing Conroy as the Bat.
Neil Patrick Harris, though, was a great Barry Allen. -
... in a cartoon.

Vaudeville Villain said "Neil Patrcik Harris" and "Outing..."
by cletus van damme
Sure, it was completely innocent, but still damned funny!
-
This is as good a representation of a "Golden Age" Batman as we are ever going to get. It's like the voices of all the heroes in the cartoons of the seventies sounded like "men". I think only until recently (BTAS, etc) has this come back. Jeremy Sisto nailed that "growl" that Bale only hinted it in Begins (sounded forced and I liked BB). Also a "Golden Age" Batman would be even more hard ass having lived though the Cold War, etc. I mean he actually breaks and/or dislocates someones arm! That's Batman. Takin' guys out of the fight!
-
Good point. I think that is a symptom of the movie as a whole...it has alot of difficulty establishing pace, location and characters. Towards the end it got worse, there was no explanations as to why certain people were showing up and why and even WHO they were. Green Arrow is never mentioned by name and doesn't even talk....I feel like this one was REALLY geared towards people familiar with the subject matter.
-
Agreed. This movie (while not perfect) shows up the characters as we've never really seen em in other adaptations. Jone's dislike of humanity is present. Batman's loner-status (until Robin shows up) and Superman's loyalty to the government are all amped up.
-
...but MUCH moreso in the book. The New Frontier is about the fears that let America consume itself. Much more about its hypocrisy than it's heroism.
-
The movie has been out on the internet in perefect dvd quality for a months now, and millions gave already seen it, and i know you have already seen it.
-
I think this would make a good series. Let's see the transition from Golden to Silver age. A whole separate continuity than BTAS/Superman/JL. Unfortunately it seems DC Animation has decided to skew younger with televised animation and release one shot "pg-13" movies direct to video.
-
Same stuff they've been doing with DC cartoons for the last 15 years or more. Time to try something different.
-
Intriguing concept. I love the idea of a DC Anthology tv series...starting in a world w/ no heroes and than the into of Superman and how this dynamically changed things. It's like the world would be the world as we know up until 1938...GREAT IDEA!!! MARVELS captured that notion really well for the marvel comics universe. So many things could be tackled...would the characters age naturally from decade to decade...??? Hmmm...could even toss in a Crisis to handle those questions.
-
saw this last night and it was as bad as superman doomsday...was at the uk premiere of Rambo tonight in liecester square london...much better..hary talks unrlevant crap about the films he reviews and likes...what a waster
-
And I dunno. Pretty, good ideas, but it always felt like just a series of vignettes that didn't really add up to much. Almost like, at the last minute, when they had to reveal the big bad, they copped out and went, "It's a giant monster!" This "vignette" approach to story telling has always rankled me, and I consider it the number one sin of the show Heroes, for example. (still, these vignetes in New Frontier are much more interesting than anything Balls-less Heroes could come up with.)
-
and crap story...big so fucking what..was very pissed off with this shit craparse cartoon
-
Aren't Teen Titans and Legion of Super Heroes different?
-
loved it. and you know what it would be extremely cool to have a retro justice league done right on the big screen. now to finish wtahcing those mad men epsiodes
-
comic book reading, retarded, computer educated, soul-less, uncreative, losers go and wank on your qwerty keyboards...this cartoon is utter bollox...
-
and you are correct ..but so am I
-
It's on piratebay. It's fucking boring. Supes gets taken out by the od damn ID4 ship immediately after assembling all the super heroes in the DC universe that don't even have speaking parts. Aquaman brings Supes outta the water at the end. Batman flies a gay-assed Bat-Plane and wears little gloves and shorts instead of gauntlets and briefs. The movie is BORING. Shit SUCKS. Watch Idiocracy again instead. I don't get why this country's animation hasn't progressed since Tim Burton's Batman movie spawned TAS. Same old shit. Saaaame old mediocre shit that geeks eat. sheehuhheeeeeit.
-
Yeah that'll do.....
-
No, that's consistent with the comics. The Barry Allen Flash always wanted people to see his eyes and felt that "white eyes" masks like Batman's and a lot of others made people distrust them. He just didn't have lenses in his mask while others did. No inconsistency there - in fact, quite the opposite.
-
and since i have it in the queue as blu-ray through Netflix, ill prob get it in 2 years... anyone else waiting FOREVER for blu-ray discs?
-
robertplant was right. Aside from geeking out from a Green Lantern origin story-lite, the rest of it was very pappy. Pass on it.
-
But, Boreanaz NEEDS to be Hal Jordan in a live action piece. But then there's Nathan Fillon. OMG . . . I'M TORN!
-
This really was good. Why is there no hope of live action JLA being any good when theres some much to greatness to the JLA cannon. I hope a live action version mever happens. Let Pixar do an animated version a la incredibles. Come on WB and disney make it happen!
-
the movie has been widely available on the net for at least three weeks now. I've seen it twice, its a great golden age to silver age bridge story that forefronts the Green Lantern and the animation is spot on with the style of the comic. They even explain why Batmans costume changed and for once Superman doesn't hug all the limelight. Wonderwoman is very pro-woman and brutal as hell, Batmans fight with some underground cult is awesome and involves some breaking of bones as it should! The Flash is great in this too and he has a great sequence against Captain Cold. The only problem with the version i saw was that it wasn't 16:9 widescreen but a horrible 4:3 preview so i'm hoping the official release is 16:9 I can't wait to buy this and see it in its true widescreen beauty with all the extras!
-
I loved that scene in the comic where J'onzz J'onzz is watching tv, trying to get a sense of earth culture, alternately turning into different people / characters he sees on tv, including everyone's favorite wascally wabbit, Bugs Bunny!
-
Anyone who has wanted to see it already has seen it.
-
Aquaman showed up as Supes underwater chauffer. Overall it was good. But it felt like there was a lot of story left between scenes. This seemed like a massive introduction movie rather than a complete story. But it was fun to see all of the classic heroes together kicking some butt. I hope its the beginning of a longer story/series.
-
People who are saying it sucks because "it's set in the past" or "it looks like Timm's animation" are fucking clueless. This is, after Mask of the Phantasm, the best DC animated movie yet. About Jeremy Sisto's Batman voice - FINALLY someone besides Conroy has the sense not to do that forced hard whisper that passes for Bats in all the live action movies - that is so retarded and the way Sisto and Conroy do it is much more real and intimidating.
-
are you all so fucking retarded to think that aicn should pat you on the back for that and not continue hyping the movie? jeez, sometimes people are just aholes
