Say what you will about their relative lameness, but damn the Wonder Twins have persisted in cultural memory.

]]> <![CDATA[Cartoon Justice Beats The Live-Action Version Any Day]]> @sandmanfvr: @Defendant: Outside from the animated movies (which were awful) Marvel never made any movies! Neither does DC for that matter. Movie companies make movies. They merely license properties from the comics. It's a bit more vertically intergrated because DC and Warner Brothers are both under Time Warner, but comic book companies do not make movies. What they want, think or believe means jack shit to the people who actually do. Oh, they may be kind and talk to them for a half-second, but in the end it doesn't matter, I don't care how many time you see Stan Lee's name in the credits.

]]> <![CDATA[Cartoon Justice Beats The Live-Action Version Any Day]]> Blah. The problem with everything Justice League is that with Superman and Green Lantern on board, everybody else has to live in the Sidekick's Lounge, except when insanely contrived plots let them do something useful.

Before anyone tries to spin the concept so that it sounds better, I'll just say 'Invisible Yellow Forcefield'.

Life am good!

{sigh} I miss Batman Beyond...

]]> <![CDATA[Cartoon Justice Beats The Live-Action Version Any Day]]> What impresses me most is that they managed to establish one continuity (with as much consistency across shows as you'd find across most comic book series) that spanned 15 years and 8 shows (2 Batman, 1 Superman, Batman Beyond, Static Shock, Zeta Project, JL, and JLU).

]]> <![CDATA[Cartoon Justice Beats The Live-Action Version Any Day]]> The Justice League cartoon was great. I think DC got it down pat for the cartoons and their "style". Live action? Hard to do and even Marvel doesn't do it right all the time, *cough* Daredevil *cough*.

]]> <![CDATA[Cartoon Justice Beats The Live-Action Version Any Day]]> I'm still holding out hope that George Miller puts off the live action version... particularly in light of a new rumor that claims he's hired the guy who played Toecutter in the first Mad Max to play J'Onn J'Onzz.

Rus

]]> <![CDATA[Cartoon Justice Beats The Live-Action Version Any Day]]> George Miller is making it?

Now, I'm conflicted. Granted, it's been a long time since Mad Max and a short time since Happy Feet. But it's still Miller.

And yeah, Unlimited is a great show.

]]> <![CDATA[Cartoon Justice Beats The Live-Action Version Any Day]]> Oh, I loved Justice League (Unlimited). I was so ticked when they cancelled it.

]]> <![CDATA[Cartoon Justice Beats The Live-Action Version Any Day]]> I was surprised how much I liked the Cartoon Network series. I was skeptical, but I have really fallen for that show.
