So, how is it that Warner Brothers produces massive piles of steaming crap whenever they try a live-action film version of their comics, BUT...
Their animated series are better than 99% of ANYTHING on television or at the movies (and yes, that includes the Marvel universe stuff, including "The Avengers", which I loved).
Seriously; my wife and I just finished binge-watching the "Green Lantern: The Animated Series", and we were absolutely blown away.
Why the hell doesn't Warner Brothers let Bruce Timm (producer) do all their live-action stuff?
The linked storyline of the two seasons - 26 episodes, total - was epic, exciting and completely satisfying. The scripts were excellent, the characterizations superb. If this had been a primetime show, I would never have missed a single episode.
Thank God for Netflix!
Seriously, if you're a fan of the superhero genre, or if you just like intelligent story lines, good dialogue from funny to moving (and beyond) and a seamless, fulfilling story arc telling a truly epic adventure, do not miss this gem.
It's not a diamond in the rough; it's a perfect emerald.
