Video Notes

Produced by Warner Bros. Animation, “Justice League: Gods & Monsters” arrives on Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD this Tuesday - July 28, 2015.

The clip features Superman (voiced by Benjamin Bratt), Wonder Woman (Tamara Taylor) and Batman (Michael C. Hall) preparing for battle with the U.S. Army … and a question as to whether or not this trinity will be perceived as saving or ruling the planet. The clip also includes the voice of Tahmoh Penikett as Steve Trevor.

Animation legend Bruce Timm returns to the popular DC Universe Original Movies with his unique new vision of a Justice League you’ve never seen before. "Justice League: Gods & Monsters" features a Superman born of General Zod’s blood, a Batman with a healthy dose of bat in the man, and a Wonder Woman rising from the ranks of the New Gods. This ain’t your daddy’s Justice League. They are as likely the world’s saviors as Earth’s despotic rulers. When a group of famed scientists experience untimely “accidents,” a government task force follows the trail of clues to the Justice League -- and into a high stakes game of intrigue, mystery and action that asks the question: How do you serve justice to those above the law? The star-laden voice cast includes Michael C. Hall (Dexter) as Batman, Benjamin Bratt (Law & Order, 24) as Superman, Tamara Taylor (Bones), as Wonder Woman; Paget Brewster (Criminal Minds), as Lois Lane; C. Thomas Howell (E.T., Southland), as Dr. Will Magnus; Jason Isaacs (Harry Potter films, Dig) as Lex Luthor, Richard Chamberlain (Dr. Kildare, The Thorn Birds) as Highfather, and Tahmoh Penikett (Battlestar Galactica) as Steve Trevor.

This was a pretty decent film. Even if it wasn't anything mind blowing. It was certainly entertaining to be able to watch an animated and darker take on the DC trinity in a film where they're allowed to swear and use sexual innuendos too. But even so they kept it pretty tasteful. On the other hand the idea of "evil" Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman isn't really anything new by now so I'd give this film a solid 7/10

@tommy_x: They were never evil. Just a bit darker. They wanted to save people they just didn't believe in kid gloves.

@guardiandevil83: That's why I wrote "evil" because it kind of depends on where you stand. I'm all for superheroes using more force to put an end to supervillains once and for all but at some points this trinity went maybe a bit too far. Not to mention that they worked for the government and attacked whoever government pointed them at which is pretty questionable. But in the end I mainly meant that evil and/or darker and edgier, morally questionable Justice League has been done before so it's not really a groundbreaking idea.

@tommy_x: Yeah I understand. I think every major hero has gone dark at some point.

I happen to like Elseworlds and alternate realities, so this was definitely up my alley. Yeah, some concepts about darker characters aren't new, but I like that they came up with all-new characterizations and did it through multi-media (web series, comic and full length film - that's pretty extensive to promote something that's going to be extremely different to the mainstream masses).

Thinking about:

  • Crossover sequel where Earth Zero meets this group?
  • Does this new universe have its own designation? Earth

@guardiandevil83: Indeed. The 'evil twin' trope doesn't exist for nothing. And with JL especially we've seen both DC and even Marvel doing their own takes on that concept multiple times.

Guys, Before we all start arguing, They announced a Second Season Of Gods And Monsters Chronicles Into a Full Season. So, The Second Season continues where the movie left off.

I like the new notes section. I never understood why Comicvine didn't have a method of putting more detailed descriptions to videos.

The look of Gods and Monsters still bothers me. I haven't seen the movie yet, but the recent shorts didn't manage to impress me.
