Trivia:

Goofs:

Incorrectly regarded as goofs: When Ares increases his power, he boasts he is as strong as Hercules. That is the Roman name of the demigod while all other mythical figures in the film are identified by the proper Greek names of Greek mythology. Though technically the proper name of Heracles would have applied, the source material of the comics has a long of intermixing the names of Roman and Greek deities in The Pantheon.

Quotes:

[first lines]
Ares:You seem as eager to meet me on the battlefield as you once did in the bedroom, Hippolyta.
Hippolyta:I only hope you prove more skilled in this arena, Ares.

Movie Connections:

Featured in "Atop the Fourth Wall: The Brave and the Bold #54 (#5.47)" (2012)

Great animated movie

...But this movie was the best of the new Animated DC and even Marvel movies coming out yet (maybe with an exception of the Justice League: The New Frontier Movie), which might've been a bit better...

Everything just fit from the Storytelling, Jokes to the Action and even the Voice cast... usually they tend to overdo it (especially on the Action part) but it was just about right in this feature.

More of them in this quality please, I'd even like a TV show if it stays like this :P

I gave it an 8/10 with a tendency upwards.

MOAR!
