Ep. 151 – JLU – The Doomsday Sanction

The World's Finest on Twitter: "The Justice League Unlimited mini-marathon  continues with "The Doomsday Sanction." Getting ready for Justice League  vs. The Fatal Five by revisiting some of the biggest episodes from

The Doomsday Sanction

After a pitstop for last week’s 150th episode, The Good Brothers return to wrap up the month of Match with another entry into the Justice League Unlimited Cadmus story-arc with “The Doomsday Sanction.” Join the hosts as they discuss a plot that redeems an underutilized Doomsday, who was originally featured on the Justice League episode “A Better World.” Hear the hosts discuss whether or not the return of this major tentpole character was justified, the tendency of the series producers to subvert expectations with some important characters, why Dr. Milo’s return seemed a bit out of place,  why this episode could’ve flourished with a second part to it, and visuals that wow but are held back by the return of the terrible, no-good CGI. Plus a pair of musical cues that steal the show and another all-star voice cast that features some more fantastic work from multiple performers. All of this and a preview of next week’s episode on this week’s DCAU Review!

The Cat & The Canary

Cal & Liam continue in their month of Justice League Unlimited coverage, with the introduction of Black Canary to the DCAU in the episode “The Cat and The Canary.” Hear the hosts discuss a plot taken straight out of a Clint Eastwood drama, visuals that dazzle and captivate, albeit with a bit of inconsistency.

Ep. 148 – JLU – Dark Heart

The World's Finest on Twitter: "The Justice League Unlimited episode "Dark  Heart" debuted on this day (Dec. 11) back in 2004. Even with the solid  front-to-back action beats and great character moments

Dark Heart

March is here and that means as the calendar page turns, Cal & Liam switch series, returning to cover Justice League Unlimited and the episode “Dark Heart.” This seminal episode lays the groundwork for some of the larger plot points used for the Cadmus arc that would define the #JLU, but this week the Good Brothers discuss a plot that asks the question “just what IS nanotechnology anyway?” Hear the hosts talk action that at the time seemed grand but now looks a lot like every superhero blockbuster, more out-of-place CGI, some wonky character models, and some of Batman’s new toys. Plus how the JLU greenlit episodes that focused on C-List level heroes, a pair of really solid voice performances from two very recognizable guest voice actors, and why the episode may be in line to be canceled in the future. All of that, a complete scorecard, a new special guest intro to the pod and a preview of next week’s episode on this week’s DCAU Review!
