DangerousJ Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I just finished Harley Quinn TAS Season 1 and 2 bluray set. Pros: It is a pretty funny show that pokes fun at modern superhero tropes and the modern social media age. Other than the 1966 Adam West Batman and Deadpool 1/2, I'm generally not into funny superhero shows. However, this one is very entertaining. Most of the characters are entertaining and have good designs and voice acting. King Shark is probably my favorite. I like how he is generally chill, but become savage in key moments. Also, I like that Batman and Joker aren't just running roughshod over it. The "haggard and low self esteem Gordon is funny , and also a nice change of pace from the stock "Good cop/loving father" he's usually depicted in other shows/movies. Seeing Bane being treated like crap by the other villains and his soft/caring sides in the pit crack me up. There's not much action but it is good when its there. Cons Even though this is a Harley Show, I feel like Im the least interested in her storylines. KS, Ivy, Gordon, and even Sy Borgman feel more interesting to me. The first season feels like a 13 episode take on "harley and Ivy" from Batman TAS. Many team shows usually do some spotlight episodes with members of the supporting cast, and I wish this show would do that more often. We go to see KS go back to the Shark Kingdom only late into S2. Sy was hinted at having a mysterious past, but little has come of it. Clayface seems the least developed and his Shakespearean actor bits seem less funny as time goes on. IIRC they havent even said which version this one is. I'm guessing Basil Karlo but who knows. Also, they need to be more creative with his powers in battles. I dont like Penguins voice actor. Miscellaneous: This is one of the few streaming shows that I dont feel like binging compared to other superhero shows. I watched 2 episodes per day, but didnt feel the urge to watch more even though I had all the episodes available to me unlike folks watching it as it released. Overall: 8/10 Darc_Requiem and RSG3 1 1 Quote Link to comment

We already know how everything goes down and I can't see how all the reshoots and additional footage is going to save what is (in my humble opinion) the weakest entry in the DC Universe's lineup. Unless its a totally new movie which I know it isn't.... I'm amazed the head honchos even green lighted this project but I guess that shows how much faith they have in Snyder as a director and the might of the DC fan base. Quote Link to comment

Plus Snyder don't get or understand the source materials. Quote Link to comment

Teenagers get emotional about everything and will give their parents shit for anything. Being Superman ain't gonna save you from the realities of raising a teenage child. They will resent you at some point even if you can fly and bench press the planet. Shit they may resent you for exactly those reasons. Quote Link to comment

One of my friends from back in the day was probably the richest kid in school. His parents had a 3 story house and his room was the entire attic. Like his room was bigger that my whole family's home. They were moving to a new, bigger house, with 8 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. Like it was just him, his parents, and his sister. They were each going to have their own bathrooms. Dude was hot because their new house didn't have an in ground pool. I looked at him as said "Dude, you dad is a lawyer. Your mom is a psychologist. They just bought a big ass house before selling the one you are already in. They can afford have an in ground pool put in." Quote Link to comment

Hawkingbird Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) The new Jennifer managed to preserve the chemistry she has a Anissa.

It seems she's going to have a completely different identity going forward. This is why I wish this recast wasn't a plot point.

Yeah, she pulls off making me believe she's the same person with a different appearance. The scene with her and Anissa on the couch was top notch. Honestly she looks more like she could be Jefferson and Lynn's kid than China Anne Mclain. She's tall like Jefferson. Looks like she could be the daughter of an Olympic sprinter.
