STARRO - The Justice League's SECRET Greatest Enemy
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Starro the Conqueror never appeared on the "Justice League" or "Justice League Unlimited" animated series...and yet...she's fought this League almost more than any other villain. How? The answer is right under your nose.
Special thanks to my mom, Kathleen Strecker, for the Starro voice dub!

When Aquagirl said Starro "saw Superman’s might and power over the years" she's probably referring to when Superman escaped the preserver's ship and Starro likely witnessed Superman clobbering the fxck outta Mongul in the Fortress of Solitude
That’s what I’ve always thought too!
Mongul:happy birthday kryptonian i give you oblivion
Superman:Burn!
Starro: i feel a plan coming together
The Starro possessed James scenes are great.
I loved the suicide squad.
That's actually the worst part.
@@reynaga5169he was still a good live action adaptation for a giant sentient alien starfish but I agree that a different villain coulda fit better like bizzarro Superman clone
When a “casual deep drive” into Starro turns into a nail-biting cinematic work of art… right under… OUR VERY NOSES!!!
I absolutely love Starro. He’s one of my favourite JL villains ever.
Starro has such a simple design but ends up being such a threatening villain with the most horrifying super power
10:34 Darkseid: Needs the Anti-Life Equation and an event comic.
Starro: Haha that's tuesday bro.
Watching James lose time is outstanding
It all started with Superman who took every creatures that Preserver kept after his defeat
I love how this channel takes coloring books so seriously as part of a lore. It's like a McDonald's toy
Same here! This channel really believes in leaving no stone unturned! They even analyzed the canonicity of the BK "Adventures" comics, which literally came with Big Kids Meal toys! However, it's the "Learn to Read" comics that really get me!
It's deliciously nerdy
The colouring books are the only true lore
@@andrewcozzini8259 It's what I most admire about this channel, and even the fandom. You will not see a fan channel of Avengers earths migthy's heroes or Wolverine and the x men think about all the children's comics of the series that were distributed only in India and Thanos or something like that appears. I'm just starting out in the universe and I'm moving forward with Batman tas, which is becoming my favorite series I've seen this year.
Juliju? Otra vez? Te veo en todos lados
In all due respect, this is a channel dedicated to the DC Animated Universe. Until Caped Crusader comes out, relevancy can feel free to go out the window.
I welcome “I made the video cause I wanna”.
Starro. One of the things that still scare the shit out of me.
17:50 That only works because "a fish is a fish even if it's a bug" according to Aquaman's The Brave and The Bold incarnation.
I mean, if we wanted to make people, according to some taxonomists, all terrestrial life is fish
The starro crawling clip scared the hell out of me. Really enjoyed this video.
James Gunn did a great job showing just how terrifying and powerful Starro actually is besides being just a giant starfish
Starro has always been terrifying, but Gunn definitely did go out of his way to make Starro scary, even making the control lethal.
@@High-LordHarza James Gunn really made Starro terrifying for me and that was a great chance to show how powerful he really can be
17:25 This is just the family friendly plot of DCeased lol
After this video I love Starro more knowing she jams to Sandstorm
The production value in this video was insane!
Poor James! It must suck being sporadically taken over by an alien star fish and all. But, hey, at least he didn't awaken to find he killed robo-Warhawk or nothin'!
The Second Video In About A Month Where James Takes Off His Shirt.
Keep making these videos us 90's kids need closure I don't care how old I'm turning I love this still
We shall!
Big 'i have been falling for 30 minutes' energy and i'm all for it
One of the highest compliments I could receive 🙏
Their first, and also cutest villain. If dc ever makes a starro plush they are gonna make some bank off em .
The starro movements are very well done
I love that at 11:55 to 12:02 when James is controlled offscreen, the TV actually is a different screen to show that something happened. That's a really nice detail.
I really love the way the Starro bits with James were integrated into the vid. Very well crafted, indeed
14:58 I had the same book when I was little. How you guys used staro as a horror character was amazing. The staro stickers, they still good?
Love this topic and/or Starro the character, apparently a lot more than Bruce Timm who's responsible for making me love the character, but I digress. Anyways, really top -notch stuff, James (if it's you currently in control, lol), especially with the effects! Also, is it weird that I sort of want one of those face/chest-latching suckers, too? They looked spot-on!
Whole video was awesome, but the end segment rocked. Never have I enjoyed an ad so much xD
Also, at 3:08, (somewhere in Oregon), Mattie's all, "Did someone say Ray Romano?!?!"
Me: "Did somebody say Rino Romano?"
If I had to rate this video, I'd give it five Starros out of five
Always wondered this after seeing Starro in a Justice League coloring book.
I really like staro
Its fun to see super heros punch eachother or see a giant starfish be a eldritch thing like chulthulu
Haha second
So stoked
Phenomenal effects work and fun as always, best part of the week!
Thanks, Matt!
Starro the conqueror is such a great villain
Huh, I guess I missed that JL Adventures issue when you (James) were going through them. It's odd that it seems so for sure not-canon (given Starro's design, setting, etc.) and, yet, there's that line at the end by Superman hinting at Starro's "reappearance" in "The Call." It's especially so when you consider Supes, at that point, was already holding the one in his zoo from that S:TAS episode. Unless, because they're a different color, Superman doesn't recognize his Starro as one of them, but it's a stretch. (🤷♂️)
He Thought It Was A Different Evil Mind Controlling Starfish.
Maybe he didn’t want to stereotype
Not all giant space starfish are the same
Great video keep up the great work!!!
It make you wonder what else is out there in universe
I like how the Batman beyond starro arch Ties into STAS because in the 2 part Lobo episode ( in Superman the animated series ) that weird white pill guy was collecting species that were the last of there kind and at one point you can see staro and Superman eventually put all the endangered species in his fortress of solitude so starro eventually broke out and mind controlled Superman in Batman beyond
First time viewer. Love learning more about characters often forgotten.
at 12:01 you can see the background change, super attention to details guys.
very fun! love the Starro face-hugger, did you make that or are they available for purchase (great X-Mas gift I'm thinking) keep up the great work!
Had it custom made through a guy on Etsy!
@@dcauwatchtower How in the hell did you get it to move up your chest?
@@noahvadertheberserkerpacki6604 WITH THE POWER OF EDITING!!!
Amazing episode you got a new subscriber
I have vivid memories of that coloring book. But the only thing I remembered from it was the starro story so just these black and white pictures are bringing back some major nostalgia
Wait. What was the episode when a creature at the fortress of solitude attached itself to batman and he envisioned a reality where both of his parents survived? I thought that was supposed to be a Staro proxy.
Nope, that’s the Black Mercy! Came from Mongul, just took place at the Fortress. The episode is JLU’s “For the Man Who Has Everything,” a classic!
@@dcauwatchtower Thanks. I guess in my Mandela Effect memory I remember a blue and pink star attached to Batman.
@@dcauwatchtower so what would happen if a swarm of Black Mercies attacked to a large Starro?
Here's to hoping we get a Starro iteration with the dream powers of Black Mercy, especially in storylines like Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League... would love to see Harley Quinn's "better world" if that's the case.
Lol I was latterly watching the starro arch last night! What are the odds
Thanks Vlassic Pickle Stork!
... oh, yeah!
@11:07 - the look on Wally's face.
Wow, those new shirts are amazing, who ever designed those should get some sort of pizza. Or a trophy. Or a pizza trophy.
Starro is very dangerous extra terrestrial.
I wonder if Starro the Conqueror, is a distant relative of that alien starfish that was in The preservers Possession.
aquaman being the goat with his ability to command anything that kinda looks like it would belong in the sea.
I would refer to Starro as they, both singular and plural because Starro is a hive mind.
Not completely, one Starro offshoot grew up in a jar in the Bat Cave and developed its own unique personality
they were even renamed Jarro, temporarily took up the identity of Robin to fight the Legion of Doom, and even joined the Justice League all while still retaining the memories of the original Starro.
Now I need to save up for some Yoppie merch...
The first DC Book I ever bought was the JL 1980. I usually bought Marvel way back then, but I just couldn't believe how bizarre that cover was.(and still have it) great content thank you
Oh yeah!
THE Suicide Squad movie would have greatly benefited from a short J.L. cameo, saving Starro by throwing it back into space, whence it came
Starro is focus of video instant like 👍
STARRO LIVES. STARRO LIVES. STARRO LIVES. STARRO LIVES. STARRO LIVES. STARRO LIVES.
*Lillie pets her nihilego and smile exactly like Lusamine* I have my own parasite and I’m the true Queen!!
*She soon grab a white starro, phone, spellbook and jar few other parasite*
They take up other form to adapt and control. I gather so many thing because these guys from vessel, memories, power and even love…. Hehe.
4:44 That room is LIT!
I love starro 🌟
Feeding the algorithm beast so some day he can even have merch.
feeding the beast
This is too good
18:03 It had me rofl even Starro has some class when alluding to… moments like *that* in history.
A big purple starfish that sits on Superman's face? Is that Bruce Timm's way of a joke lolz?
Bruce Timm didn’t create Starro 🧐
Starro. Starro. Starro. Starro. Starro 'bout to be poited!
*POIT*
Bruh. This video a whole horror movie. 😂😂😂
I have both of those coloring books. They're currently in my garage. It's funny that the Starro stories are exactly the same.
I will say imma very excited to buy me merch! Are you a yoppie dude i know I am!
The dedication to the bit on the toilet with your pants down lol
And they really are, too-I tried it with underwear on and you could still see ‘em. Unfortunately I spent so much time figuring this out that I forgot to lift the toilet lid.
Anyone else think James' merch salesman voice sounds like the old man in Scooby Doo under the mask? Doesn't matter which one, it just does.
And he would've gotten away with it too if it wasn't for those meddling kids!
@@GabePuratekuta True in both franchises! Pretty sure they said that line in the English dub at least once.
Yay A JL Episode,
now about that Superman Tas blurry set and other Blu-ray sets tehehehe
On the list!
@@dcauwatchtower you guys are the best I'm doing a animated horror episode coming up I should have one of your crazy cats on to talk about it
Batman Beyond The Call
How the hell does Starro stays on Fire's face...?
SHE'S LITERALLY ON FIRE! Wouldn't that stop the face hugger from staying on her face...?
Great Video Fellow Starro.
Love the story aspect of every episode
Here's a snack for the Algorithm Beast
I like the idea that Supes fought Starro 7 times and still kept one as a pet with no precautions for becoming a host again
9:13 Starbots
Starro James is best James
STARRO JAMES IS THE ONLY JAMES.
How I would like to know what would it be like if Mr. Freeze was in a staro episode.
I thought Starro also controlled Superman in JLU for the man who has everything?
Lol nevermind I just rewatched it a bit why didn’t they use starro for this 😂 timm must really not like him I guess
That episode is based directly on an older comic where basically the exact same events happen. The Black Mercy does share similar traits and physical features though-I think the first time I saw the episode, I thought it was a new take on Starro and was confused about the continuity! Haha. It’s a pretty common misremembering.
this video gets a like for the merch plug at the end ALONE
So Starro literally had a” dceaced “ storyline that is somehow better. Interesting.
8:02 oh know! The room changed!
The real star…ro of this video is that ROTJ poster
When in doubt, a DCAU newcomer, if not binging afficionado, better end Batman Beyond with "The Call" and Return of the Joker, NOT the airdate order finale "Unmasked" or the ever skippable The Zeta Project crossover"Countdown". After that, they should continue on with Justice League+Unlimited and Static Shock (with the non-DCAU Teen Titans on the side, later to be succeeded with The Batman 2004 after JL Unlimited is done). Besides, seeing the Beyond-era Justice League Unlimited team before seeing their founders' origins somehow feels right.
Oh, and we sorely need a Starro with mind control powers akin to the Black Mercy. That would be a perfect amalgamation.
(Addendum: Shocking how the DCAU thrived on via winging it in spite of the lack of a planned out storytelling course akin to Babylon 5 and Avatar: The Last Airbender. Still, gotta respect their grudging need to not put Starro in JL because continuity purism.)
(2nd addendum: If Bruce Timm doesn't like Starro that much, then I don't like Joker bullet-paralyzed, wheelchair-bound Oracle.)
(3rd addendum, please forgive: Just how many years was Superman Starro-possessed in the DCAU, and even then, how were the likes of Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, and, if still alive, Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen left unaware of it?)
That Kevin Conroy thing was quite a depressing
I know...
I love the austin powers reference
Me Looking at Starro
*New Fantasy Unlocked*
Very awesome video guys! Big thumbs up… Also Starro Will create a world where we can play Darude sandstorm on RUclips… I for one welcome our new starfish overlords! XD
Holy shit James
8:03 ZA WARUDO
Ghhehehghhgheghhghhheehhehhehehhhehhehheh
I’M VERY INTIMIDATING
Because why not have a gigantic Starfish as a villain...
oh yeah
Jarro is best Starro. Jarro is also the best Robin, even Batman said so.
So the parasite in "for the man that has everything" was not starro? Oh man. So what the heck was it then? I was waiting for the moment it was going to be brought up. Dump me.
one the best moments in FCU btw. I think that is kind of dificult to make me love superman, but that episode change everything for me.
That's the Black Mercy!
They would have been a awesome series by themselves. They can't keep anything connected to Batman Beyond on the stands! Like to know more about the Lantern.
