Superman: Doomsday - Page 3

*Raph's Girl* · 08-11-2007, 01:33 PM

IGN has some scenes from the movie: 1 is the discovery of Doomsday's craft

Lex Luthor: "How old is it??"
Scientist: "Uh well we're deep um...so before christ..."

Yea...that tells us alot....

And the other is the start of the battle (not so sure about Superman's voice).

Don't worry Adam Baldwin is very consistent in the movie, he pulls through.

I also saw the trailer on my Spawn TAS 10th Anniversary DVD.

My review.

I thought it did a fairly good job of condensing the Death and Return of Superman into 75 minutes and the fight scenes were real good. Hated the cast, primarily, though I kinda dug John DiMaggio as Toyman.

Gave it a B-.

So when does this hit the UK again?

*Drtooth* · 09-18-2007, 08:56 PM

You know, I never liked Superman at all.....

And yet, I frikkin wanna see this movie.

**Jester** · 09-18-2007, 09:22 PM

It's pretty good. I enjoyed the action. Kinda wish they'd have done more with the "He's gone." emotional content. I'd love to see it done with the S:TAS voice actors. Clancy Brown IS Lex Luthor!

*Spitfire* · 09-18-2007, 11:44 PM

They didn't use the voice cast from the series? What kinda bull is that? They did in all the Batman films.

**Jester** · 09-19-2007, 12:10 AM

This is outside the DCU continuity, as is New Frontier. The thought "New continuity, new VAs." The Batman films are DCU canon.

*ZariusTwo* · 09-19-2007, 02:30 AM

Yep, this is similar to Marvel's direct-to-DVD tripe, only there GREAT.

Yeah, I agree.

I've never had the desire to read the comics, animated series, or movies. And Smallville bored me to tears after a while.

The only Superman thing I can honestly say I've enjoyed and love is "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman"

I must admit though, the trailer for this caught my eye.

Not exactly a fair comparision though. I mean, it's Bruce Timm.

JetsAndHeels · 09-19-2007, 08:00 AM

I loved it...of course it is Superman so therefore chances are I would have anyway...

the action was great, thought the voices were decent (kind of hard to get used to them when I am so used to the ones on TAS), and I thought the animation was superb. I watched it twice yesterday, and I think another viewing later today is in order as well!!

*DrSpengler* · 09-19-2007, 12:10 PM

But Howie Mandell as Mxyzptlk!!

...Though seriously, there is MUCH better Superman media out there to be seen than that goofy 90's comedy-drama. The Dini/Timm Superman animated series probably being the best.

Exactly, and Smallville, whilst being Power Rangers, Donner's films, the comics, Dawsons Creek, AND Goosebumps all at the same time without actually being Superman, has had a few good seasons itself.

I loved that episode of the animated series with Gilbert Godfried ad Mxyzptlk.

*ZariusTwo* · 09-19-2007, 01:30 PM

Gilbert was also in the vastly underrated Gerald-era Superboy seasons as "Nick Nack"

But didn't someone say Bruce Timm made it? I don't know...seems weird they'd do that.

Those Made for DVD Marvel movies look horrid every time a new turtles DVD comes out I see a trailer for one.

And I laugh my ass off when I see Dr.Strange on Blu-ray...and Ultimate Avengers.

That was absolutely magnificent casting on Andrea Romano's part. Godfried was just PERFECT for that role. A shame the follow up episode, "Little Big Head Man" kinda sucked and they never managed to get that Justice League episode with him in it together.

The "Timmverse" is over and done with, this is just Bruce Timm doing adaptations of classic comic stories but with better production values and a PG-13 rating allowing him to administer more daring storytelling.

The previous Superman STV movie, "Brainiac Attacks" also isn't a part of the old "Timmverse" even though it uses his character designs and features several members of the TV show's cast.

These movies are just isolated continuities all off on their own.
