First Time Reaction to Justice League: Doom

[@Rembreiker_lychec9257]

One of my favorite details is that despite Star Sapphire having a grudge against Green Lantern, her plan doesn't actually involve him dying. It shows that Carol on some level still cares about Hal.

Well, he is stuck in a cave with no oxygen

[@spencernaugle]

"You Know Flash was there First" Funny that you say that..... Traditionally Flash being so fast means he takes on so many responsibilities that he's actually often late to things.

[@Raged_Consumer]

It's also meant to be ironic that the man with superhuman speed is late, Barry was always late before gaining powers and kept it up as a way to throw people off. He even suggested Wally do the same.

[@ChristHBK]

@@Raged_Consumer I think it also has to do with the original point made, sure he probably leans into it, but Barry Allans personality itself, likely made him take on a low of responsibility, even before he was The Flash. Like trying to help everyone at once and being late to everything because of it.

[@nicksmyth4050]

Comic nerd here: For the record, yes, Bane has always known Batman’s identity. He broke his back during a storyline called Knightfall, basically the first Arkham game. Star Saphire is Carol Ferris, Green Lantern’s main love interest. She’s possessed by the Saphire Lantern (basically the green lantern only for love instead of will power). She was played by Blake Lively in the Ryan Reynolds “Green Lantern” movie (which is how they met)

In the comics this movie was based on Plastic Man was actually a big part of the story. And even when Batman's contengincey for him was made to be lethal, it could not kill him. Plas is unironically one of the strongest characters in DC and can go toe to toe with Superman if he so chooses to. Batman's afraid of what would happen if he turned evil because there's no sure fire way to stop Plastic Man.

Batman knew Plas could survive the contingency, he just wasn't sure what kind of effect it would have on his mental state. And there are ways of stopping him which they contingency proves, he could build a prison that's constantly freezing him, have superman lock him in the phantom zone, etc. He's not unbeatable just underestimated, hence Batmans comment of they're lucky he's on their side, it also applies to Superman and Flash but it doesn't need to be said for them

[@SorenAlba54]

This is the movie that shows how far Batman is willing to go to protect the Earth from any threat, even the Justice League because as the tactician of the team, it’s literally his job to be 2, if not, 3 steps ahead for whatever event may occur. He knew the risk of what would happen if the others knew about this and he was fine with it because their abilities can only go so far before it snaps entirely and unless a backup plan was already made, everyone on the planet will be in jeopardy. Henceforth, Bruce Wayne is and always will be the most vital member of this group of protectors.

[@milkiassamuel780]

Great choice for a reaction. One thing I like the most about this film is the amount of conflict that is created because of Batman and his contingencies against nearly every hero on Earth, really shows how untrusting he is towards the people he cares about even to his closest friends like Clark and Diana, even himself and I to an extent you can understand his plans since the DC Universe is full of dangerous and mind controlling threats that could compromise heroes, but still he let his plans get stolen pretty easily which was his fault. Nevertheless I'm glad Superman still trusts Batman and the two still remains great friends together, since Clark very much understands what it means to control his powers and knows they can be dangerous in the wrong hands. Btw the way Green Lanterns power ring works is that he can materialise anything he can imagine with the ring to an unlimited extent, but no he can't restructure his own DNA. If you want to learn more about Green Lantern Id highly recommend Green Lantern: The Animated Series (2011) sadly the show got cancelled after 1 season due to the failure of the live action movie but it truly dives into the the incredible mythos of Green Lantern comics and the great world building that we only get to see in the comics. The storytelling and characters alone are so fleshed out and developed. I would also kindly like to recommend some other great animated films: - Superman vs The Elite - All-Star Superman - Batman and -Superman: Public Enemies - Green Lantern-First Flight - Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths - Justice League: New Frontier

[@Vivianthuy-mn9jd]

For Batman its not a matter of trust, Superman is actually probably tied with nightwing with how much he trusts him. Instead its about duty, the strongest members have the potential to be world enders if so much as mind controlled. In the comics you'll find there is actually very few differences between superman and batman (passed the image Bruce puts up), and their ideas on contingencies is not one of them, Clark even has had a lead container holding a kryptonite ring just in case

[@leovk5779]

Agreed for all the recommendations, and I would like to add Justice league: gods and monsters to that list.

16:20 - Green Lanterns can create anything thier mind imagines using thier ring, and can to an extent manipulate thier own aura (the green glow around thier bodies that shields them from attacks like a superhuman punch, and from suffocating in space). Thier only limit is that creating constructs requires the ring to be charged and their mind to be focused. A Green Lantern cannot manipulate thier own physical bodies unless their specific species lets them do that, so no matter what Hal Jordan makes, he will still be 100% human. Fear is the greatest enemy of Willpower, and how that affects GL varies depending on the writer. In some cases the ring will abandon Green Lanterns who succumb to thier fears, deeming them unworthy, and in others Green Lanterns giving into fear weakens thier constructs considerably and they struggle to create stable ones. There’s ALOT of lore to Green Lanterns

On one hand, it’s very understandable why Batman created those contingency plans. As he himself pointed out, the Justice League are among some of the most powerful and dangerous beings on the planet. If they ever intended to go rogue or indirectly succumbed to a form of mind control, earth would be fucked and no one would stand a chance. But on the other hand, Batman should had been honest and told his teammates the truth in secret. Least it would had been a lot more understandable on their part so that way, they wouldn’t had felt betrayed or manipulated. Unfortunately, despite the fact that Batman is capable of teamwork and working together with other heroes, he is still at his core very distrustful of people and is often very paranoid of the possible what-if scenarios. Hell, he doesn’t even trust himself and created plans to stop himself should anything bad ever happens. That alone shows that in some way, Batman is the most dangerous one of all, despite the fact that he’s human with no special abilities of any kind. I honestly don’t blame him for doing all of this. It’s better to be prepared than to be caught off guard. Green Lantern was the only one who understood why Batman did what he did while everyone else was not seeing the bigger picture.

Lanterns can create energy constructs of anything they can imagine. Each type of Lantern has to draw on their color's emotion/aspect to create the constructs. It's called the Emotional Electromagnetic Spectrum. Red is Rage, Orange is Averice (Greed), Yellow is Fear, Green is Willpower, Blue is Hope, Indigo is Compassion, Violet is Love, White is Life, Black is Death. Star Sapphire Corps are Violet Lanterns. Love being their source of power is how Hal being her ex makes her so vengeful.

I don’t know if you guys will see this but I am so happy to finally see a group not get on Hal Jordan for being unclever, so many people compare him to the other green lanterns and thanks he’s not clever or they could do better but you actually have to know how the thing works that you are creating which means he literally knows down to the detail how to actually make a gun or at least know the mechanics of how a gun works good enough to make one plus you have to do it incredibly quickly and be able to keep focus and have willpower or it will just not be that durable or effective.

[@Lupinemancer87]

Green Lantern rings draw their power from Willpower, one of the seven colors of the Emotional Spectrum. Using their strong will, they can literally create anything out of the green light of Willpower as long as they can imagine it. Even the suit they wear is created by the power, and while it generally takes on a base appearence, they can alter it slightly to fit their style.

[@cardinalcrowbar]

You know what? Can’t even blame them for thinking Carol is Blackfire. Not going to pretend like the Green Lanterns have well known villains.

[@poochyenajones1362]

I like how Superman was the one to trust Batman no matter what at the end. Also in the comics Batman once admits that letting the contingency plans get stolen was one of his biggest mistakes he could've avoided.

[@rishavrai99999]

Green Lantern(hal) is ironman with heart (and magic science) .. And if green lantern believes that he is blind then ring can make them blind(but just take off the ring and all normal)

[@saltymisfit6566]

Cyborg actually has a higher intelligence level than Batman does but Batman has the skills and the experience to look at things differently that's why he is so important to the overall team success is because he looks at things at a different angle than anybody else does even cyborg with his super intelligence misses a lot of key details and angles and possibilities that Batman comes up with because he has that open concept of imagination that he's developed over his career

[@saltymisfit6566]

Will I find funny is a Kik Batman out beamed him out of the watchtower and yet he is the one who pays for everything they basically kicked him out of his own house

[@saltymisfit6566]

That divorce was extremely costly 😂

[@petitesweetgirl23]

I read the comic this is based on. I will say they understood where Batman was coming from. Their main issue was the fact that he didn't tell them. They didn't like the whole doing it behind their backs thing because they definitely understood the whole mind control thing and turning to the dark side thing, but they felt that at the very least he would have been open about it. And I know someone might bring up them knowing would probably make it easy for them to counteract it...he doesn't need to tell them what the plans are just that there are plans in place in case someone goes rogue to stop them.

[@wesrrowlands8309]

It's nice to see some of the old JL voice actors from the show back, DC/WB was always really good about keeping actors for their animated stuff.

[@Rasklo93]

Star Sapphire is from another lantern core. Sinestor Yellow, Hall Green, Red, Orange, Indigo, Blue. She belong to pink

[@Jay_BeWilld]

Green lantern can manipulate himself, once he thought he was blind and the ring made him blind

[@AgntFL]

This left out the end scene where Batman is teleported back to the batcave and puts the kryptonite bullet with his much larger stockpile and says: “I can’t believe he bought that”

[@legionkahn]

Fun Fact the Legion of Doom was created for the old Challenge of the Superfriends cartoon way back in 1978. It's original line up was: Lex Luthor, Sinestro, Cheetah, Solomon Grundy, Black Manta, Giganta, Scarecrow, Toyman, Riddler, Brainiac, Bizarro, Captain Cold, and Gorilla Grodd.

[@BLUERAYGUNER]

no one gonna mention how Hal just used his will power to break the fear toxin? WITHOUT the rings help? dudes will is too strong.

[@thewillo1317]

I love how early you guys questioned "what does batman bring to the group" whilst watching Justice League Doom, subtitle" what batman brings to the group

[@plaidcowsyndrome]

You asked if green lantern can augment their bodies… you should look up arissa. She was a kid on the lanterns that liked Hal and used the ring to become legal

[@BlackMoogle]

Green Lanterns have problematic relationships. They either go evil or get stuffed in a fridge.

[@dannybob42]

Batman is more the money than the brain. Cyborg meanwhile got bumped up to Justice League member in reboots, he went back to the Titans because you don't fix what's not broke but sometimes he's made part of the seven ahead of Martian Manhunter or the more obscure Red Tornado, for this it seems that he replaces Aquaman. Doom is partly based off of the Tower of Babel storyline, wherein it's learned that Batman has contingencies for everyone and Ra's al Ghul uses it against them, it did affect the trust a lot. The movie uses Vandal Savage instead, as well as the more common versions of Green Lantern and The Flash. The contingencies may've been ripped off of X-Men's Xavier Protocols 4 years earlier. Star Sapphire is not related to Starfire, she's an ex/love interest of Hal Jordan who gets lantern-esque powers by the Star Sapphires, whose power source is love. Bane has always knew, he deduced it early, breaking Bruce's back came from the comic Knightfall, in which Bane debuted by having him wearing out Bruce with several villain attacks and then jumping him in the batcave. Green Lantern can only create constructs it can't affect his living matter I believe. Fire meanwhile is one of Martian Manhunter's key weaknesses, tied to his trauma of Mars being destroyed. Oh Metallo isn't 'just a robot', he's a cyborg with a Kryptonite heart and a big grudge against Superman. Wonder Woman does sometimes use a shield, it's not a mandatory piece of kit

[@maxim_beatbox]

Star Sapphire (Carol) isn't on Sinestro's side, though she is Hal's enemy. She's part of the Star Sapphire Corps, just like Hal is Part of the Green Lantern Corps. Instead of green willpower or yellow fear, the star sapphires use love.

[@sunnstrider]

I remember when this movie came out and A LOT of fans were excited because the voice actors from the justice league animated series came and did these voices. Outside of Nathan Fillion and Tim Daly who voiced Superman in the Superman animated show like how Conroy did Batman animated show.

[@TonyJaaFan1587]

Martian manhunter is actually not vulnerable to fire, it makes martians way stronger and more dangerous so the green lanterns implanted their minds with the idea that they are weak to fire so they would believe it can kill them and they would not use it against them

[@HankHodges]

Thanks guys, you made me laugh. I'm just surprised none of you mentioned Star Sapphire's costume or more precisely her lack of costume.

[@xoxo_bella_cosplay]

40:08 to be honest I mean his contingency plans are the best in case they do go to the bad side which is in the Injustice games

[@parkerboy795]

And what if he goes bad like Batman who Laughs?

[@CommanderSteelTrap]

Yeah, the plans have never been the issue. It’s Batmans lack of trust, that’s why he’s not allowed in the League anymore.

[@TonyJaaFan1587]

Star Sapphire is a lantern, starfires sister is Blackfire

[@panthor109thabest7]

Bane learned who Batman was in like a month, but he got amnesia and forgot Gl can manipulate himself if he is smart enough, but that's unnecessarily risky.

[@KojojoMojo]

Yes guys, watch the older animated movies from DC. THEY ARE GOLD. Like all star superman and super man VS the Elites. Or even BMSM publics enemies.

[@CarveronGamer]

16:19 Even though he doesn't do it in the movies/tv shows, in the comics, one lantern thought he was blind so the ring blinded him and in another occasion a young lantern wanted to be older and she grew overnight thanks to the ring.

[@TheChiefEcon111]

I’ve never liked a video specifically for an ad but man, yall just got a new sub just cause of that
