guyverfanatic Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 When lexcorp accidentally unearths the intergalactic serial killer Doomsday, Superman battles the creature head on in the fight of his life. . .literally. The world collectively mourns their fallen hero; humanity realizes it will never feel safe again. Superman's enemies rejoyce - all but Lex Luthor, who grieves the loss in his own demented manner, setting off a chilling chain of events that even he couldn't foreseen. IMDB.com Is anyone else looking forward to this animated movie? We'll finally get to see Superman and Doomsday duke it out the we never got to see the Justice League series!

Frost Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Yes this will be a good watch i wonder is it till his death or till his return where he destroys the Cyborg? Speaking of Guyver.. have they released any new episodes/ season or the last episode was of the Gigantic fighting Neo Zektole? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McAvoy Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 They released Disc 6 of the Guyver series. It leads up to episode 23. Disc 7 comes out in November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frost Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Ah that means episode 26 is the last for this season? It would be cool if they did a Green Lantern toon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McAvoy Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 When lexcorp accidentally unearths the intergalactic serial killer Doomsday. Why couldn't they keep it back to the roots? I mean the original Doomsday was a experiment by the Kryptonians to make a unkillable weapon. That's why Doomsday was able to kill Superman because Doomsday is in fact part Kryptonian and part adaptive, meaning you can only use a weapon or ability once before he is nearly immune to it. Perfect example is that Superman when he first eno****ered him took a full force punch from Doomsday without flinching but then got a full force kick that literally took the air out of him. From there Superman started to lose the battle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*zeo Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Well that was because the containment suit was dampening Doomsday power and as they attacked him they actually freed him from the suit and that freed his power. The adapting at that point was still limited to whatever killed him was what he would adapt to, which is why in the rematch (after both had resurrected) heat vision and such became useless and Superman had to resort to sending Doomsday through a boomtube to get rid of him, but of course Doomsday always managed to survive and return later.

Frost Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Well first Doomsday was not created by the Kryptonians he was created by Bertron a scientist with his team on Prehistoric Krypton because it has a hellish climate and had the fierciest creatures known.. once Doomsday destroyed the Lab and went off planet the research of Bertron was used by the natives to pursue the path genetic perfection something like that..

*zeo Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Yes and no, the scientists that assisted him were Kryptonians and Doomsday was created from Kryptonian DNA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guyverfanatic Posted September 19, 2007 Author Share Posted September 19, 2007 Why dont these guys stick to the original story line to the T? i mean why the changes i have yet to see a movie in which they followed the entire original story line The original story was a bit convoluted, so they had to edit it down for a 70 minute movie. I'm still waiting for my copy to arrive in the mail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frost Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 so why limit it to 70 minutes? make it longer is that suppose to be an issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guyverfanatic Posted September 19, 2007 Author Share Posted September 19, 2007 so why limit it to 70 minutes? make it longer is that suppose to be an issue? Too many subplots. It's easier to cut it down to just 70 minutes, other wise we'd have a 3 hour movie. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman_Doomsday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frost Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 At least they could have used better graphics i mean look at the marvel ultimate avengers graphics it seems DC is not interested in making movies or animated series or games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnyxPhoenix Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 To McAvoy: My good man, the new season of Smallville begins on Sept. 28. Be ready. To Frost: Saw it last night, had to buy it cause the nephews/godsons love the comics & the animation. Thought it was decent, knew it would be different, but it was decent. As for Marvel movies having more animation tech, just the way they work, I guess. Also, keep your eyes open for Justice League: the New Frontier. Looks sweet.

Matt Bellamy Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Why dont these guys stick to the original story line to the T? i mean why the changes i have yet to see a movie in which they followed the entire original story line i like Smallville last episode i saw was of Season 6 episode 22 have they released any more? Because sticking directly to the original plot would have required a LOT longer piece of work to flesh out characters and whatnot. You may forget that despite it being a Superman story... it moved into other comics as well... like Green Lantern. My quick review: ( SPOILERS! YES I DON"T CARE IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED IT! MWAHAHAHAHA!) Overall: 3/5 - Nothing spectacular, but overall pretty decent. Some of ther revamping was ok, but some of it was kinda iffy. I was a fan of the 4 Supermen from the comics, and, admittingly, was dissapointed that none of the character actually apeared. Doomsday was pretty close to what they did in the comics. Granted, it wasn't perfectly the same, but still, he didn't speak, and his only goal seemed to destroy. That part was pretty accurate. And with the PG-13 rating, people weren't crawling out of vehicles that he destroyed. He was clearly killing. The fight with Superman was pretty well done too. Lots of collateral damage. Supermans death wasn't as dramatic... but still... pretty well done. This is of course where the movie starts to differ quite a bit from the original plot. The Clone idea that they did use however, seemed to take from 3 of the characters anyway ( with Steel being left out). Superboy - Being a clone of Superman Eradicator - Being "right minded" in his actions, but much more violent Cyborg - The actual fighting with Superman, and noting his weakness' Lex Luthor's plot in this was kinda tacked on I felt. But they clearly showed he had ulterior motives... and also proved that you may be able to clone Superman... but you won't be controlling him for long. I also liked the fact that, when Superman returned, he used a variation of the black suit, as well as a Gun ( despite it being a Kryponite gun) as per what happened in the comics as well. That and he had his long hair. Overall, it was pretty enjoyable. I would have liked them to use the cast that they had used for the Superman Animated series ( and thus Justice League after), but the more famous cast did a pretty good job too.
