    Best movie since Superman vs. The Elite. Had a good balance of heroics and humanity to it. I loved Doomsday’s initial murder spree before meeting the League and Supes. I liked Lex’s new VA, his speech at the funeral was hilarious.

    I was really into it. Had a good time with the action, enjoyed character work, and kind of loved the world building. I can't really ask for more with these.

    We walk on the path to Secher Nbiw. Though hard fought, we walk the Golden Path.

    It was very good! A few qualms (didn't like the voice for Lois really, hated the voice for Lex, some of the animation was subpar early on), but the story was good, the Justice League was superior than what I know of the comic line up from the original comic, and if the animation wasn't perfect throughout at least it was perfect for the fight scene, and what an impressive scene it was.

    I just rewatched it to be really sure about my feelings for this movie... and I loved it even more than the first time! Even the animation seemed better.

    This movie is so enjoyable and every little scene counts to inform the characters and their feelings and intentions. All of Superman/Clark's friendships and relationships feel so natural and realistic I'm kind of in awe. We see how much Clark cares about others, including Lois, and just as important we see how much the people of Metropolis values and appreciates and even adores Superman. All of that is very important because when the big fight to save his city and the world starts, we truly care for Superman and his life. I found myself smiling at lot.

    And the action doesn't disappoints AT ALL! Doomsday is truly a killing machine and the way he trashes Superman like a doll at times... it's very painful to watch.. :'( The Death of Superman is a big win, IMO, because when a movie makes me smile a lot like this does, and also makes feel on the edge of my seat and tear up for Superman like this movie does, it just means that it did its job very well.

    So, my feeling right now is that this animated movie is my favorite Superman movie of all time.

    It really is that good for me. And I wish that the live action Justice League movie had been this instead of what we got. Don't get me wrong, I like JL a lot (I know I'm not the majority here) but this DoS movie is just on another level of greatness, IMO. If someday I meet Peter Tomasi, I would give him the biggest hug for giving me such a perfect and wonderful Superman movie and story. This man really gets Superman the way I like it. :') Also hope Reign of the Supermen delivers and blows my little mind away like DoS has.

    It was a fine film, with a great Clark/Lois dynamic, pacy action, and lots of world-building for the next movie establishing all the major players. Jerry O'Connel is really finding his feet as the voice of Superman

    I hope this is not considered spamming w/ pics.. but the one thing I don't love is how dark Superman's suit is in this movie. I wish the blue was lighter and brighter just a bit more. I do love the New 52 suit in the comics and action figures. I think it looks very modern and badass for Supes.

    I like this blue better.

    Don't get me wrong, I think Superman still looks good in this movie, but I wish the blue was lighter.

    I thought it was excellent. Loved Superman’s characterization. He was confident but also humble. He was funny but not a smartass. It kinda reminded me of how Bendis is writing him. Which is odd as Tomasi wrote the script. I was most impressed by how each of the League members had a cool little part. The weak animation was my only complaint. Though the animation during the actual fight scene was quite good.
