I feel like his work has far more depth than your average popcorn flick, but that's just my take.
I haven't read the comic but I assume that was to refresh readers when Courtney's last comic appearance outside Doomsday Clock was in Forever Evil, and that was years ago.Waiting for Three Jokers for three years or whatever it was made the disappointment of that series greater than it might have been otherwise. Ditto for D-Clock, which had such a strong start. And I am baffled by those that enjoyed the Stargirl section of the Infinite Frontier special. It felt like a slightly more fleshed out "Who's Who" entry to me than anything else.
I mean, for every GL movie we get GL:TAS which adapted a lot of his GL run, so doesn't that even out?
GL:TAS was okay. It was never on the same level as the other DC animated shows. It doesn't have the lasting power of the DCAU or 2003 Teen Titans which has a huge fanbase to this day. If it was that good, DC would have green lit a new season like they did for Young Justice.
I don’t even think what Whedon did was all that bad. Gal Gadot is a horrible actress and he probably let her know it a few times.
This isn't the right thread to discuss this topic but one of the main reasons Young Justice was renewed was because it was traditional animation and far less expensive than GL. Even then, some people still complained about the last season of YJ looking comparatively cheaper to the previous seasons. YJ was a safer bet from a financial standpoint and there was bigger fan demand to bring it back as well, but GL's cancellation was unrelated to either quality or lack of interest. I also feel this generally isn't a fair comparison to make given that no DC cartoon has had the kind of lasting power that Batman TAS and some of the other DCAU shows have had, and none of those shows were canceled before they got a chance to find a larger audience due to the underperformance of a bad movie.

I suspect the body count list in the next crisis is going to have a rather interesting commonality.
