Sucks on almost every level. Bad writing, bad voice work, indifferent animation, lame plot devices...are they trying to make Superman Returns look better by comparison?
Watching it now..was hoping I'd find a post from you that says it got better.
Powers Boothe (of Deadwood) is playing Luthor. He played Grodd in JL/JLU. I wouldn't but any of the blame on him. I imagine they wanted him to do a goofy Hackman/Spacey type of delivery.
Sadly Tim Daly, the voice for S:TAS is back, but the dialog he's given is weak.
IMDB lists Curt Geda as the Director. He's one of the Timm-team, having done S:Tas, B:Tas, BBeyond, and Zeta Project, also X-Men: Evo...but he's also doing the Ultimate Avengers cartoons, so....
Dini isn't the be-all of the DCAU...JLU-wise, McDuffie's where's it at, and it's really Bruce Timm's sensabilites that run through the DCAU.
HOWEVER, the guy they have writing this (and the exec producer) has such winners as "THE Batman", "Savaqe Dragon", and "EXTREEME!!!! Ghostbusters" on his list.
I imagine this was rushed out to coincide with the movie. Note that the S shield is smaller than DCAU standard. And the fortress appears rather movie-esque.
