(Animated) JUSTICE LEAGUE: "INJUSTICE FOR ALL" Appreciation Thread **SPOILERS**

[huedell]

Many of you have seen it.

I saw it a bit after it first was shown on TV.

I instantly marvelled at the supervillain team they had gathered.

I was really thrilled when the JOKER showed up to round out the team.

I was watching it today and noted something.

You COULD consider that LUTHOR doomed himself from the start.

LUTHOR was the one that convinced ULTRA-HUMANITE that
money could buy cool stuff "Everybody needs money...
the question is 'How much?'"

By the end of the episode HUMANITE betrays LUTHOR for
MORE MONEY (Batman's) to finance a T.V. station
that he likes a lot---one that plays a program that drives
LUTHOR crazy (operatic singing).

I thought that twist was an example of great writing.

Any one have anything to add to the thread?

Do you really need a spoiler warning for a 5 year old cartoon?

Guess not.

Still haven't got some of these Net-geek things down yet.

[thunderbolt]

It'd be like Spoiler warnings for Empire Strikes Back.

I hear ya---I guess because it's not as much of a phenomenon
as a major picture, and not as many people had seen it,
I thought to put the spoiler on in case any one was
thinking to ever back track to the JL series to see what they missed.

Now I got it.

Next JL:IFA point, I know this is a "family board" and everything
---but ya just gotta wonder what Grundy did with Cheetah
after he dragged her away

Ahem...moving on...

Good episode. Actually, JL got a kind of bad rap in it's first season. I think it was mostly undeserved, but they did get better at pacing in the later seasons. This is one of the better season 1 two-parters.

Yeah, there seemed to be a suggestion that Grundy did something...naughty with Cheetah. JL/JLU is full of stuff like that. Rewatching the shows on DVD and Boomerang I realize it even more now then I did then. From suggested off screen stuff to grautitus cleave shots of Vixen and Black Canary. You can see that the show was run by fanboys.

why? what happens in Empire?

Hey, can we leave the comicbook geek stuff out for a second and just
call guys like them (and me) "perverts" instead of "fanboys"?

It'll really help with my self-esteem

Seriously though, it's a funny phenomenon to find animated chicks
"sexy"---and we've spent pages and pages on stuff like that before
but the more intriguing thing regarding females on a cartoon like
JL/JLU etc., is that they aren't really even that reminecent of
actual "human" form---but they still got it goin' on

Love that Timmverse BLACK CANARY

Ahem...anyways...

Further JL:IFA observation...the WONDER TWINS statue!

And how about the idea that Luthor's outfits throughout the whole
show represent different eras of his outfits from the 70s through the 80s..
I thought that was pretty cool.

[huedell]

why? what happens in Empire?

Luke slips Leia a horse tranquilizer when he realizes he's
losing the romantic battle to Han.

Luke and Leia "do it".

Darth Vader cuts off Leia's leg and tells her she's Luke's sister, where then
Leia proceeds to cut off her OTHER leg.

^^^ Musta been that special edition.

Atom got to ride in Wonder Woman's boobies in an episode, too.

Atom got to ride in Wonder Woman's boobies in an episode, too.

I love the Atom---and he's actually featured in (at least) two GREAT episodes
of JLU----one is the one where he teams up with Lex Luthor to work
on some kind of machine to stop Amazo...

and the other episode...the one you're talking about...is the one with all those
insectoid robot things----

I remember when Wonder Woman put Atom in her chest thingie---
I was prepared for some kind of hardcore innuendo there----and NOTHING

whatta letdown---

"I couldn'ta picked a (dramatic pause) safer place" comes to mind
