Batman is a vampire. Superman isn’t wearing an S on his chest. Wonder Woman is one of the New Gods. This is not your usual DC Universe. Gods and Monsters is set in an alternative universe to explore different aspects of these iconic characters. A group of scientists is being killed, a conspiracy is afoot, and the Justice League is being framed. I enjoyed the new story line and hope DC decides to do more of these alternate universe stories. Special Features include A Sneak Peek at DC Universe’s Next Animated Movie (Batman: Bad Blood), Alternate Realities Infinite Possibilities featurette, Calculated Risks: The Making of Gods and Monsters featurette, The New Gods vintage featurette (a must-watch for fans of Jack Kirby), and From the DC Comics Vault – 2 Bonus Cartoons. This is an entertaining movie that offers plenty of extras. GRADE: B+
Again I will say it, you are one eclectic guy!
Patti, I was a big comic book reader in my early years. Now, in my Second Childhood, I find amusement in these animated features.
this sounds interesting to me. the top picture shown of superman reminds me of someone, but I can’t figure out who. Wonder woman(on the top) looks a bit like sophia vergara
Maggie, the recasting of Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman in this animated feature took a lot of creativity and imagination. I enjoyed the result and I think you would, too!
Nope.
Rick, you might enjoy the classic DC cartoons included on this Blu-ray.
It’s the alternate universe part that puts me off. I like my DC heroes regular style, the classics.
Rick, for the most part I prefer the classic DC Universe. But, once in a while, it’s fun to shake things up. JUSTICE LEAGUE: GODS AND MONSTERS certainly does that! Batman, a vampire!
I enjoyed this one when I saw it. Good choice!
Scott, like you I’m a fan of these DC animated movies. Hope you have a great 2017!
