To Coy's point that it felt like an Elseworlds, it is because it's based on the New 52 which is essentially a different universe from what we grew up with. All of his issues with this film are exactly why the New 52 ultimately failed and was soft rebooted with Rebirth a few years later.
Green lantern & Batman’s dynamic in this was my favorite 😂so damn funny & this whole line of films is great for what it is, how everyone else acted I didn’t mind
It actually gets worse with every movie. This one was the last one that's actually pretty close to comics. Everything after that is pretty much fanfiction.
I love this movie. The Justice League live action movie should have been more like this. The absolute best depiction of Batman and Superman fighting I have seen. Thank you for the reaction!
@@hollywoodguy70 JL Origin was actually one of the high points of the N52, minus Superman being kinda a dick (That was a general problem in the N52. N52 Superman was kinda a dick). The N52 had some good parts. I feel that's something that gets lost in discussion because everyone focuses on the really terrible stuff.
i think this was something like what snyder was going for. except he didn't get to use reynolds' lantern or levi's shazam. and he was forced to rush into the league before it was ready.
OK, so notice how every beat of the action scenes gets a visceral reaction from these two. That is the power of really, REALLY excellent storyboarding, and modern directors would do well to embrace that.
Exactly, the DCAMU was really incredible when it came to choreographing and animating action. The physics and kinetic impact is always on point. That’s one of my issues with the DCAU is at times the fights felt so slow with little impact
@@chuckjammy9251 Absolutely right. But remember, the DCAU is where WAG learned to walk. We look back on Batman TAS, Superman TAS, Static Shock and those shows and we get disappointed with the choreography, but we wouldn't have this DCAMU or Young Justice without those coming first.
It's funny you say that, because the director of this film (Jay Oliva) is a storyboard artist for many live action Superhero films, including Thor Ragnarok and Man of Steel.
Personally i grew up with these movies so it great to see yall watch them, there is in total 15 films in the DCAMU storyline (in chronological order at bottom) and i really hope yall love it as much as i did. these were very much an adaptation of the New 52 Storyline sine this was released near the launch of tht. I do think its kinda funny though that when Joss Wedon did his cut of Justice League, He used an opening that closely resembled the opening to this movie. Here's the Chronological order of the movies tho 1 Flashpoint Paradox 2 Justice League War 3 Son of Batman 4 Justice League Throne of Atlantis 5 Batman Vs. Robin 6 Batman Bad Blood 7 Justice League VS Teen Titans 8 Justice League Dark 9 Teen Titans The Judas Contract 10 Suicide Squad Hell To Pay 11 The Death of Superman 12 Reign of The Supermen 13 Batman Hush 14 Wonder Woman Bloodlines 15 Justice League Dark Apockolips War
How is Flashpoint first? It starts with Flash knowing everyone, and ends with Flash knowing at least Batman for sure, yet War has him going “Batman’s real?”
I really hope you guys continue with The rest of what are nicknamed “The new 52” movies it has a satisfying conclusion and Flashpoint Paradox is what made the flash my favourite super hero, and these movies are some of my favourite adaptations of comic events❤
Seriously the epic rise in music for an intro scene (when batman and Lantern chase the Parademon) is just awesome. It was something movies hadn't really done all that often. You don't really get the epic music score until the huge epic battle in the final act.
Guys please keep doing these reactions to the dc animated universe it’s honestly really good and get better over each movie. It’s like the MCU with like 15-20 movies. Carries the same voice actors throughout all of it.
I think Hal was pretty spot-on for a younger Hal. He is pretty cocky at times, a little hot-headed, and usually has a bit of an abrasive personality to certain characters. But I think as he grows with age and experience, he would mellow out a bit and becoming more mature and a leader in the Corps, and then when he first meets Guy… that would be a little bit of a wake up call to him of what he used to be like, but turned up to another degree. I could see characters like John, Bruce, Barry, Clark, etc, pointing out to Hal (jokingly) that he was like that sometimes, and Hal rolling his eyes or covering his face with his hand in embarrassment.
I can't wait to see Hal Jordan and the rest of the Green Lanterns in James Gunn's DC universe. The different personalities of Hal, Guy, and John, then adding in Jessica and Kyle later.
Bro I’m soo excited for this new dc universe coz I was never rlly a fan of synder verse coz honestly it was rlly limited to what character can be in that universe. For example, dick Grayson died so that means no teen titans which means no other future heroes. Anyways that behind us mate. GL would be amazing my fav is John Stewart
No way ! Alan Scott the first Green Lantern and member of the Justice Society is the best Green Lantern by Far ! Hal is second place but the others are nothing ! 💩
@@pepejimenez9295 Gunn isn't going to make every movie himself. And he's not going to use the exact same tone on the ones he does. Like he's not gonna make an R rated tone in his Superman film obviously.
This series of movies is based (sometimes ever so loosely) on the New 52/pre-rebirth comic line and the way it ends is WOO i can't wait for you guys to see it
This should be the inspiration for the new justice league from the way of showing the abilities of each member, the good comic moments that do not destroy the personality of each character and the relationship between the heroes, of course, eliminating what is not necessary or is repetitive, such as using darkseid or making a relationship between wonder woman and superman
Really hope y’all keep this series going and get to that finale (Justice League Dark: Apokolips War) because that animated movie is off the chain; pure greatness
I agree..I always been more of a Bats/WW due to the Justice League cartoon..I never liked Supes and WW..It comes off as hey, let's just pair up the Superman and female version(strength wise) it just had no depth to it bc of this to me.
Yeah, Clark and Diana feels like a lazy "like likes like" pairing. Not saying Clark can't see anyone else before Lois, there's obviously Lana Lang, and I'm not saying Clark and Diana couldn't be each other's type, Clark is a decent person and Diana is a very strong personality, but it's just not interesting. Diana flirting with Batman is a much more fun dynamic, because she's so warm and social (but unburdened by learned mainland norms) and he's...vaguely gray-asexual and autistic-coded and has a lot of emotional baggage. Also, Diana being paired with women is something under-explored, so that's another thing I'd rather see than her going for her closest male counterpart. Or, you know, she could be great on her own without any need for romance.
WW is really annoying. She acts as if She's the very embodiment of truth or something. And Supes is an OP naive. Batman is the only real G here who makes sense.
This is one of my top 3 favorite DC animated films. I have lost count how many times I have watched it, and that is fine. Lol!! I'm super glad another channel is doing these movies, and hopefully, you reach the Batman and Robin trilogy and then Justice Leagie Dark. All are favorites of mine. Green Lantern was a gem in this film and becomes even more so when Nathan Fillion voices him. Enjoy this road of movies you are on, and I can not wait for more reactions to them. Thank you, guys!!
I’m not the biggest DC fan but these movies are something i’ve been dying for people to react to! And i love you guys!! So it’s a win win for me if you guys continue watching these movies in order! Next one is Son of Batman i believe!
Great movie! Two movies you guys should definitely check out at some point are Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths and Justice League: Doom! Both are great!
I agree w/ most of what was said here. I felt something similar at first. As I watched the other films in this same universe the characters began to grow on me. You will probably really enjoy Son of Batman and Batman Vs. Robin. I highly recommend you watch those films.
to me personally, i don't mind when characters are a little different. one of the wonderful things about the DC comics, movies and games is the fact that there are so many elseworlds stories. i loved the snyderverse because he was trying to do the injustice run. or at least something close to that. i liked superman and wonder woman in this because it is different from the traditional characters. i always enjoy a bit of a change from time to time. for example, superman's personality in this might be different? but the spirit of superman is still there. atleast to me. a man with god like power who does not kill because all he wants to do is help. i liked wonderwoman because wonderwoman would realistically be a more warrior like person. she comes from a land of warriors and so that mindset will always be there in her. i loved the fight between superman and batman because that is exactly how it would go. batman wouldn't stand a chance in any universe going toe to toe against superman. the way he stops the fight is by being smart. enjoyed the reaction :)
He wasn't trying to do injustice he was doing Legacy combjned with Brave New Metropolis from Superman the Animated series. In Legacy the Episode Darkseid Brainwashes Superman to think he was Darkseids son and turns him loose on earth. In BNM Superman Lois travels to an Alternate Metropolis where Superman has taken over after her Death. Evil Superman has been done long before Injustice. Hell just look at the A Better World Justice League Episode.
I totally agree with Coy, I remember watching Flashpoint when it came out and being absolutely blown away with it and being so hyped for the next stories afterwards. I don't read the comics but I have always loved the animated movies. But when this movie came out, I totally had to try to enjoy the movie and think to myself that the characters could've been written differently. Definitely a C rating in my opinion
I hope you guys are watching these chronologically, because based on your opinions on this adaptation of Batman, I think you’ll love the next installment of this series
The one scene that has stayed with me and my friends all these years since this first came out is when Green Lantern is getting jumped by the Parademons. Top notch!
I love this movie and still have the steelbook edition for it. This is the launch of the DC new 52 animated verse or they say Jason O' Mara verse as he was the connective tissue voicing Batman throughout its run leading up to Apokolips War.
As a huge DC fan, I’m rlly happy that u guys r reacting to DC animated movies. JL new 52 vol 1 ( movie based on this comic) was my first ever comic book that I brought so this movie has a very special place in my heart. The DCAMU is rlly good some hits some don’t but overall a very interesting and rich universe
Guys, you definitely have to watch the whole DCAU movies because it's a crazy ride from here when you finally get to "Apokolips War" you'll be mindblown
You know all your concerns will be answered once you get to the end. It all makes sense, why certain characters aren't the same as you remember them etc. Love this reaction and this take. Nice job.
In the very original trailer it was Steve Glum voicing Darkseid but in the finished version they somewhat augmented his voice where it's not his natural voice.
Superman vs the Elite (the animated adaptation of the comic "What's so funny about truth, justice and the American way") is a perfect rebuttal to all the more agro, Dickish takes on the Man of Steel that are becoming more and more prevalent these days. Really enjoyed the reaction. Was a delight!
Love that you are reacting to what has honestly been the best thing about DC the past 20 years plus. I can’t wait for you guys to review Justice League Dark apokolis war.
Nice reaction. In the lead up to spider-verse, I really want you two to react to The Spectacular Spider-Man. I know Greg loves it and I think Coy would also appreciate both its faithfulness to the comics and how other adaptations (PS4, TASM, Homecoming, FFH) take bits and pieces from it.
You see the starting of this is the same as ZSJL...parademons on the city and then where Desaad doing an experiment on Superman is just like The side kick of Thanos doing experiment on Dr Strange... Continue watching all the DCAU ...I will always be here for this.
I’ve watched the DCAMU ever since Justice League War came out all the way to when it ended with Justice League Dark: Apokolips war and love to see a whole group of fans seeing it for the first time. The DC animated movies are great
Right? Jason O'Mara's Batman is so accurate and beautifully done - acted, directed, and written - that it's his voice that I always use when reading the comics.
19:31 usually the rule with Shazam turning back, after they changed his name to be Shazam, is he needs to say it with the intent to turn back. Just saying it wont do anything, but if he says it with the intent to change, then he changes
Please keep doing these reactions of this DC Animated Universe! These movies are very enjoyable and they get better. There’s a Wikipedia page too to show the order to watch them in. Son of Batman is the next movie. This version of Batman is probably my 2nd favorite version of Batman after Kevin Conroy’s Batman.
This feels like a third act movie but it’s really the intro and builds to a real third act. But follow through with this universe. These characters are awesome.
I hope you guys keep doing it. They're fun to rewatch and to see your reactions and comments on them! As for how I felt about this movie, I grew up with DCAU/Timmverse so those characterizations are what I'm familiar with. So I had some of the same issues with this movie and some of the following ones, but I was still entertained by them. I'd watch most of them again and will if you guys have reactions to them.
Love this series. Looking forward to you seeing the rest of the series. Also, I grew to love Jason o'mara as batman. He should do more batman projects, especially with Kevin's passing.
Well, definitely Batman, Flash, and Shazam seem most textbooky. For as much as I loved Hal, I agree that him, Supes, and WW were the off-beats. That being said this set of movies is very entertaining. And if you guys loved Batman here. You should watch the rest of the Batman animated films in this style. They’re great
These movies were made with the intent to continue on to other movies which is why this introduction movie to the justice league did not give much to the secret identities but all come in too play later in all the other movies
I actually appreciate that Victor never fully reconciles with Silas. Why would he? The man only became interested in him after he was irreparably changed.
During the previous livestream talking about films in 2022, Greg said how he loves Spectacular Spider-Man but John and Coy haven't seen it so this is unrelated but I'd love it if we did get to see you both watch one of the best adaptations
This one is definitely not as beloved as Flashpoint Paradox. This universe is fun as a whole, with great and pretty mid movies throughout. Not sure if you should watch the whole universe or just the great solo movies like Under the Red Hood. I would recommend standalone movies like Justice League Doom, Justice League The New Frontier, All Star Superman, Superman vs The Elite, Green Lantern First Flight, Batman Gotham Knight, Superman/Batman Public Enemies, Justice League Crisis on Two Earths, and Superman/Batman Apocalypse. There are also some great ones part of this interconnected universe
There is always so much tension and vitriol when Bruce and Hal get paired up. As ya know, Bruce wants to be a symbol that strikes fear in the hearts of criminals. The Green Lanterns represent will power and battle the yellow lanterns who represent fear. So there's like a whole philosophical butting of heads.
When you guys made the comment about Silus calling Barry Flash over the phone, I assumed it was because either THAT phone was Flash's Phone and that Barry has another regular phone, OR that he has a secure line IN the phone that calls Flash only. For example there's a unique ringtone for Flash and no one knows that Barry is on the other end.
Definitely all the DC animated series movies , dark justice league, teen titan ones , just watch them all they are all so good , crazy that they don’t have a single dud , love y’all are reacting to them
BATMAN-SUPERMAN Apocalypse is a wonderful DCAU movie. Probably best animated of that bunch of movies. It is my favorite alongside the two Justice League Dark entries

Superman vs the Elite (the animated adaptation of the comic "What's so funny about truth, justice and the American way") is a perfect rebuttal to all the more agro, Dickish takes on the Man of Steel that are becoming more and more prevalent these days.
Really enjoyed the reaction. Was a delight!
Love that you are reacting to what has honestly been the best thing about DC the past 20 years plus. I can’t wait for you guys to review Justice League Dark apokolis war.
Nice reaction. In the lead up to spider-verse, I really want you two to react to The Spectacular Spider-Man. I know Greg loves it and I think Coy would also appreciate both its faithfulness to the comics and how other adaptations (PS4, TASM, Homecoming, FFH) take bits and pieces from it.
You see the starting of this is the same as ZSJL...parademons on the city and then where Desaad doing an experiment on Superman is just like The side kick of Thanos doing experiment on Dr Strange...
Continue watching all the DCAU ...I will always be here for this.
I’m LOVING These animated watch alongsides! Seeing many things I’ve never watched before and the commentary is just golden!
Aww wanted to see the reaction to the final Jordan/Batman conversation "He emailed me" is classic!
lol Darkseid is a tough bastard. Both eyes gouged out, jumped by the entire JL and he was still hanging on to the portal trying to stay and fight.
DC is the king for animated movies... gems 💎 every single one of them. And I love ❤️ this one! Superman is the GOAT 🐐
What I always found interesting with this movie series/new 52 was that green lantern was the one introduced with Batman instead of Superman
Can't wait for you guys to get to the end of this series. It's my favorite DCA arc and really sticks the landing.
Awesome for you guys to react to this and to start this universe. It's so underrated! Some great animated films ahead. Victory!!
When Billi said Shazam i didn't turn is bc he have to wish to turn
If he only said bc he's introducing himself it doesn't change
Love the Dc reactions. Should definitely watch Constantine city of demons if you haven’t already. Some pretty weird scenes but definitely a good watch
I'm glad they're going thru with this. maybe it will be the first of the big reaction channels to actually finish the entire DCAMU
I’ve watched the DCAMU ever since Justice League War came out all the way to when it ended with Justice League Dark: Apokolips war and love to see a whole group of fans seeing it for the first time. The DC animated movies are great
Right? Jason O'Mara's Batman is so accurate and beautifully done - acted, directed, and written - that it's his voice that I always use when reading the comics.
I’ve been thoroughly enjoying your talking points as we watch these movies!!! Can’t wait for another Coy and John!!!
This is generally a really fun reaction you guys did!
20:23 for the meme
19:31 usually the rule with Shazam turning back, after they changed his name to be Shazam, is he needs to say it with the intent to turn back. Just saying it wont do anything, but if he says it with the intent to change, then he changes
Please keep doing these reactions of this DC Animated Universe! These movies are very enjoyable and they get better. There’s a Wikipedia page too to show the order to watch them in. Son of Batman is the next movie. This version of Batman is probably my 2nd favorite version of Batman after Kevin Conroy’s Batman.
This feels like a third act movie but it’s really the intro and builds to a real third act. But follow through with this universe. These characters are awesome.
HAPPY NEW YEAR COY!!
I'M GLAD YOU'RE BETTER!!
I LOVE YOU!!!!
22:27 he just stood there watching him blast the buildings down😂😂
I’m so glad you’ve been watching these!
I hope you guys keep doing it. They're fun to rewatch and to see your reactions and comments on them!
As for how I felt about this movie, I grew up with DCAU/Timmverse so those characterizations are what I'm familiar with. So I had some of the same issues with this movie and some of the following ones, but I was still entertained by them. I'd watch most of them again and will if you guys have reactions to them.
Love this series. Looking forward to you seeing the rest of the series.
Also, I grew to love Jason o'mara as batman. He should do more batman projects, especially with Kevin's passing.
Well, definitely Batman, Flash, and Shazam seem most textbooky. For as much as I loved Hal, I agree that him, Supes, and WW were the off-beats. That being said this set of movies is very entertaining. And if you guys loved Batman here. You should watch the rest of the Batman animated films in this style. They’re great
These movies were made with the intent to continue on to other movies which is why this introduction movie to the justice league did not give much to the secret identities but all come in too play later in all the other movies
Recently got one of my friends to start the DCAMU, 2023 will be the year for DC!
“Yeah he’s over there” killed me
3:02 Gordon said, “Green Lantern express. I bet he’s not on time like me!”
James said, “Or have shiny red paint like me.”
I'm really glad you guys are watching this DC animated universe. I can't wait til you guys make it to Apokolips War.
I actually appreciate that Victor never fully reconciles with Silas. Why would he? The man only became interested in him after he was irreparably changed.
NIICE!
I'm glad u guys are watching in correct order..
I'M HERE FOR IT!
During the previous livestream talking about films in 2022, Greg said how he loves Spectacular Spider-Man but John and Coy haven't seen it so this is unrelated but I'd love it if we did get to see you both watch one of the best adaptations
This one is definitely not as beloved as Flashpoint Paradox. This universe is fun as a whole, with great and pretty mid movies throughout. Not sure if you should watch the whole universe or just the great solo movies like Under the Red Hood. I would recommend standalone movies like Justice League Doom, Justice League The New Frontier, All Star Superman, Superman vs The Elite, Green Lantern First Flight, Batman Gotham Knight, Superman/Batman Public Enemies, Justice League Crisis on Two Earths, and Superman/Batman Apocalypse. There are also some great ones part of this interconnected universe
The Shazam thing only happens when it’s said with heroic intent. At least it does now
20:26 best part of the movie
There is always so much tension and vitriol when Bruce and Hal get paired up. As ya know, Bruce wants to be a symbol that strikes fear in the hearts of criminals. The Green Lanterns represent will power and battle the yellow lanterns who represent fear. So there's like a whole philosophical butting of heads.
Green Lantern getting jumped is such a classic meme now
I love the new 52 and I love this series of animated movies so I can’t wait for more of these reactions ❤
When you guys made the comment about Silus calling Barry Flash over the phone, I assumed it was because either THAT phone was Flash's Phone and that Barry has another regular phone, OR that he has a secure line IN the phone that calls Flash only. For example there's a unique ringtone for Flash and no one knows that Barry is on the other end.
STARS Labs: "See?! This is why every other secure facility doesn't just allow family members full access!!"
this animated dc universe is one of the best things they've ever done
Definitely all the DC animated series movies , dark justice league, teen titan ones , just watch them all they are all so good , crazy that they don’t have a single dud , love y’all are reacting to them
I highly recommend Justice League and Justice League Unlimited for a watchalong, as those shows blow these animated movies right out of the water.
Glad you guys are watching this continuity, and it gets better as you go.
I really wanted to see the reaction when Batman takes Green Lantern's ring.
Appreciate their honest assessment. I can’t wait to see if their reactions change at the end of this series.
Hope you guys do more of these reactions! Really enjoying them
If they made live action versions of their animated movies DC would be just fine
BATMAN-SUPERMAN Apocalypse is a wonderful DCAU movie. Probably best animated of that bunch of movies. It is my favorite alongside the two Justice League Dark entries
