No new short film? Hopefully they pick 4 good Justice League episodes at least, that is one of my favorite extras on the DC animated releases

Nathan Fillion as GL, eh? Guess it did happen somewhat.

Love GL.

Started reading the comics back in the 70's when Mike Grell was doing the art.

"First Flight" was fantastic, watch GL come to life made me feel like a kid, picking up the latest GL comic and going home to read it 20 times in a row.

Will be picking up Superman All-Star because I also love Supes, but I am also looking forward to the special features with the preview of GL.

Live action GL looks like a lot of fun, bring it on.

Watched the movie last night.

Fun to see some of the history of the GL Corps, Abin Sir should have been much tougher.

VQ was very good, loved the colors throughout the movie. Detail was fine, it showed what the Artist drew, just not as detailed (Art wise) as a Pixar movie.

Still working on the Extras, "Brave and Bold" GL Corps/Blue Beetle Ep was a perfect addition.

Not my most Favorite, but I am glad it is apart of my DC Blu-Ray Animated Movie Collection.

I am going to take it over to a buddies house and watch it before we go see the GL Movie.

The short films are considered a "failure" since WB can't understand why so many people didn't buy the Superman/Shazam BD/DVD even though 3 of the shorts on there had already been released as extras on other discs.

So confusing.

However, there was a Catwoman short made that apparently will be on the Batman: Year One BR when it comes out.

After watching the origin story of the GL corps in this movie I was wondering if they changed it in the comics, too. There were no mention of the Manhunters or the early GLs that appeared in GL/GA #90 (1976). I haven't read GL since the late 90's so I don't what they've changed since then.

Go to wikipedia...they really really gave the GL mythos some depth for sure. I liked it.
