August 2, 2013 10:22 am This movie was great! I was not a big fan of the Flashpoint miniseries, but I think it works much better as a contained movie. Lots of fantastic moments, character designs, action and heart! And yes, just the right length.

April 25, 2013 10:30 am Did you notice that all the background elements looked like they were drawn in the style of Dan Hipp? Turns out he's the art director. I recognized his art style from its frequent appearances on iFanboy's Weekly Sketch Up!
February 7, 2013 9:15 am Why did my closed captioning call him David Wilson? Surely it must be Slade. Oh, and Wolfman and Perez Law Firm was a nice shout-out.
January 30, 2012 4:20 pm Vaughn on superhero movies, in 2010: “It’s been mined to death and in some cases the quality control is not what it’s supposed to be,” Vaughn said. “People are just going to get bored of it.”
June 3, 2011 2:14 pm I appreciate your perspective on this, Tom. "If you have been reading comics for any other reason than you enjoy the content between the covers then you have been conned." I agree. All I want is good stories.
May 27, 2011 1:53 pm @TNC. But that is Wonder Woman's costume. It's worked for 70 years. If you change it (even just adding pants), everybody complains, and with enough changes it's not even recognizable as the same character. Might as well do the real thing. Which is what I see above.

I wonder if negative response to the picture, the script reviews, etc., led to it not getting picked up. I was looking forward to it, and to showing it to my daughter...

Conor, I appreciate your measured review.
May 19, 2011 4:03 pm I agree - when I started reading comics, Grant and Breyfogle were just awesome on Detective Comics. I'm excited to see them return to Batman!

Does anyone else think this sounds less like a movie than a warmup for another eventual movie (The Avengers)? Even this poster seems to be advertising the Avengers movie.
