DVD Reviews of Justice League Unlimited: Saving the World - DC Comics Kids Collection
DVD Review: When will the WB realize how to market their DVDs?
Summary: 2 Stars
Everyone reading this has seen Justice League Unlimited. I think there is pretty much universal agreement that this is one of the best comic book based animated TV shows yet produced. As each new episode is broadcast, the buzz in the comics community grows louder and louder. I think the level of appreciation for this show is based on the high quality of writing and the exemplary skill of the voice actors and animators that bring the characters to life so well. On every level creatively, this show excels.
The writers use and develop the DC Universe characters with great skill and subtlety. Any changes or adaptations to the characters and stories improve on the originals and make sense in the animated universe. I have yet to come up with any change that I felt was heresy of established comic book lore. That's quite a feat for creators to pull off because there is a lot of lore and tradition to deal with.
As for the marketing of the DVD, I can't understand the WB's approach. Three half-hour episodes? Slightly more than an hour on one DVD? What a waste. The 13 episode first season of Justice League Unlimited would make a natural DVD set and preserve the complete story structure of the show and the developing mythos. Everyone else has posted the same thing reviewing this item. Sorry for beating a dead horse, but I'm very disappointed with this release and had to say so.
The WB has a very hot property here. I feel confident that this show could easily crossover into the WB's primetime lineup instead of the odd irregular schedule of Cartoon Network or YTV. Most prime time TV is mediocre at best. Every week this show demonstrates the very best skills of story telling and character development. Just think of the casting of the voice actors? How could the selection of actors be improved? How could the performances be improved? How could the writing be better? I don't know! The creative people here are hitting homeruns with regularity. Do we see that on regular TV shows? Seen any good movies lately? Everyone is scrambling for an idea looking for primetime magic - and yet this gem is just a kiddie cartoon as far as WB is concerned.
I'm old enough to remember when "Jonny Quest" and "The Flintstones" were original prime time TV shows. It's time to try that again. It's time to give this show a shot with adults. It's written at an adult level, but shown on TV as kiddie cartoons. Same with this DVD. It's packaged as a "Kids" video. The marketers just don't know the audience and the market for this stuff. This show could easily be marketed to grab comics fans, SF fans, Trek fans, X-Files fans - just about everyone aching for something good to come on TV. And it has got to be cheaper to produce this show than any regular show on TV's primetime schedule. It's such a pity. Did I mention this show was pretty damn good?
