superman: doomsday  

So I got the Superman: Doomsday animated movie yesterday evening and watched it last night...

Um...a little more violent than I was expecting, even if it did say PG-13.  Then again, it was based on the Death of Superman arc, of which I've read the novelization, and I know that got violent.  I did like seeing the Timm animation again, though not those lines on Supes' face.  Ugh.  The story itself....pretty much what I expected, though obviously greatly shortened from the actual comic arc.

Voices....I hate to say it, but they were all kinda bland.  As much as I like Adam Baldwin and James Marsters, neither emoted well.  Except for that ... scene with Luthor beating up on Supes...  Um, slashy much?  ~shudder~

The "evil" Superman-clone.  I just have to wonder if this was what Kon would have been if Luthor had kept control of him.  Well, rather than the out-of-control "kill them all" bald Kon that he was temporarily.

I'm still looking forward to The New Frontier movie, which won't come out till next year.  ~sigh~  I miss JLU.  Though it's sorta coming back into being with this season's The Batman.  Though I don't remember any female characters in the last scene of last season's finale.

Funny quote for the day (as seen on stickee):
Beating your head against the wall burns 150 calories an hour.
