They may very well not have the rights to use Batman.

I think my favorite line comes midway through the episode. Batman and Robin are on a rooftop, looking for the Creeper. Robin asks which way he went, and is answered by a massive off camera explosion. And Batman drops his binoculars with a deadpan "That way."

Essentially, no. Which I like, because while I was one of the few people who enjoyed the episode, I'm totally comfortable with it existing in a closed off bubble somewhere adjacent to the time stream. I'm glad they did it, because I liked a lot of the parts, but I'll readily admit that the sum was lacking.

That's the strange thing about it! It's filled with really iconic moments (the raptors in the tall grass, the tyrannosaurs destroying the trailer, the massive dinosaur herds) but the connective tissue is absolutely terrible. It's like they took the best parts of every draft and crammed them in, without any regard to

Ditto, the degenerate raptor pack hanging out in the junk yard. Even if one of them got gym-kata'd to death.

Well, I really enjoy the third film, primarily because it functions as a fairly tight little monster movie and has some great dinosaur moments. Is it kind of stupid? Yep. Are several of the characters incredibly annoying? God, yes. But at the same time, the special effects and design work are good enough, and the plot

Although Tom Hardy's bane delivery totally works when applied to Simone's Bane. And may even make it slightly better.

She is truly one of the funnier women I've ever met.

This is a thing of beauty.

I like Luthor's characterization as a somewhat Mephistophelian figure. It's a take that really works.

Major props to the creators for taking an idea that is kind of creatively bankrupt (the resurrection of Maul) and making it work in a fun and entertaining fashion.

It makes sense that it took so long for Young Justice to really get running, since the show's writing is sharpest when it's examining the aftershocks of given events. So much of the first season was spent setting up dominoes that it's a real pleasure to watch them get knocked over now. Sportsmaster's reaction to
