A galaxy full of iconic and cult faves from the DC Comics universe.......2007-07-01
My other half was excited to get this at hand. He had waited forever to see all these amazing super heroes together and this show did not disappoint in the slightest. Plots that make Hollywood movies look like grade school plays and dialogue witty enough to keep "House" fans entertained. More than 50 favorite comic book superheroes combine forces to keep the world safe in this action-packed animated series. Using their special powers of flight, time travel, ultra human strength and more, the members of the Justice League battle notorious villains such as Lex Luthor and Cadmus.
This UNLIMITED series carries on from the regular JL series. It's all around great. More characters, more action. It can spread itself a bit thin since it has so many different characters, but that's the way it would be. The original series had only a few characters, so you got a lot of character development. Here, it's a bit spread out, but by now, you already know the main players.
The season two finale, "Epilogue," is a particularly dramatic episode set 65 years in the future, when Batman Beyond's Terry McGinnis learns some shocking revelations about his parentage from an aged Bruce Wayne. The two-parter "The Once and Future Thing," stood out to me as well as "Kid Stuff, and "This Little Piggy," when Circe turns Wonder Woman into a pig while seeing the lighter side of Batman towards the end in the nightclub.
If you're a fan of the JLA or DC Universe, you owe it to yourself to check these out. Brilliantly animated, smartly written, and superbly acted by a stellar voice cast, Justice League offers unlimited enjoyment you'll not only want to view/borrow but buy as well. Great for kids and adults alike.
The Justice League go Unlimited.......2007-01-27
This boxset combines seasons 3 and 4 of "Justice League" into one long season, that sees the original 7 members of the League expand their team to incorporate every hero on the planet.
As the season progresses an interesting story arch develops which draws continuity from previous animated series from Producer Bruce Timm, surpassing anything he has created to date. The show clearly draws inspiration from recent hit shows like Buffy, Angel and 24 and manages the seemingly impossible task of juggling so many characters whilst breathing new life into the original 7.
Animation is clearly Timm's calling, making use of the 'unlimited' scope the genre can offer, whilst raising some very interesting questions regarding the leagues presence as weapons of mass destruction.
There are too many episodes on this boxset to make specific reference to, but "The Clash" and "For the man who has everything" are just two of my favourites.
If you have never seen any of Timm's previous work, but you have the slightest interest in Super heroes, then this is a must buy, as you will never see anything like this outside of the comic panels.

Experience again the Justice League's earliest adventures.......2007-07-04
Premiering on Cartoon Network in the fall of 2001, the Justice League has proving to be one of the most entertaining assemblies put together. The first season of Justice League is among the best that DC/Warner Animation has to offer. From the origin story to the epic 3-part finale. After buying season 2 a couple of weeks ago I ended up going backwards on purchasing season one. This first season includes some of my favorite episodes. I am not going comment on each individually episode because there are other reviewers who had done it already and has better knowledge on them then I do.
The seven members of the mightiest crime-fighting force, gives us a collection of entertaining adventures. The Justice League faces such dangerous rogues like criminal mastermind Lex Luthor, evil sorceress Morgaine Le Fey, genius primate Gorilla Grodd and the immortal dictator Vandal Savage. The episodes have likable good-versus-evil plots, refreshing characters, stimulating comic book action and colorful animation.
The episodes provided here will definitely entertain both youngsters and adults especially for fans of the Cartoon Network series. The 4-Disc set has a vibrant picture quality accompany by clear and pulsating sound that you won't get enough of.
