Justice League vs the Fatal Five - Movie Review

DC Animated Movies

Historically, DC animated movies have been some of the best story telling for their heroes. These movies are direct to disc and digital release. Most of this I attribute to Bruce Timm as producer and amazing voice talents like Kevin Conroy who has done the voice of Batman for decades. I will typically recommend these DC animated movies as a must see or own.

Movie Review

If you watch the trailer, none of this should be a spoiler for you. This movie is a cross over with our current time's Justice League and 31st century Legion of Super-Heroes. I very much enjoyed hearing voices of Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman from the Justice League animated TV series. This was one of the most positive aspects of this movie. 

Jessica Cruz is the new Green Lantern who has an interesting back story. I prefer Hal Jordan as the Green Lantern but it would not make sense with this story. The movie had all the pieces that I should enjoy for a Justice League movie but I found myself missing something that I wish I could articulate. Overall, I am not disappointed in adding this movie to my collection and will enjoy watching it again. I would say this is a good watch but not necessarily a required purchase for your digital library.

Rating

I would give this a minimum of SD rating. The DC animated movies can usually be found on Black Friday for less than $10 with disc and digital. I picked the UHD digital copy on iTunes for $10.

Protecting Your Online Collection

 Protecting Your Collection In this time of cyber crime, you want to protect your investment of digital movies. I will be focusing this page on the primary retailers that connect with Movies Anywhere. At the time of this post, I am only aware of Google and iTunes are the only two retailers that offer secondary authentication. Technically, Amazon offers a secondary authentication with the use of a pin for digital purchases. I highly recommend you use these security feature provided by Amazon, Google, and iTunes. This provides great protection for your collection and any saved credit card information that you have with the retailer. I would not advise keeping your credit card information with a online retailer but I understand it's convenience. With that said, I will point out that users have the ability to removed their credit card information from Amazon, FandangoNow, Google, iTunes (provided you are not using Family Sharing), and Microsoft. This is convenient when one of the retai...

Avengers: Endgame - Review

Movie Review - Spoiler Free I will try to keep this a spoiler free review. First, I would like to applaud Disney/Marvel for making a movie over the 2 hour limit that most movies have kept themselves to lately. The movie would have felt rushed if it was only 2 hours. The movie starts out appropriately timed to the events of Avengers: Infinity War. The movie kept you emotional invested throughout the entire movie. There was some predictability with the story but for the most part, I was able to enjoy the ride without knowing what would happen next. This to me made the movie extremely enjoyable. We get see how the characters deal with the aftermath of the Infinity War and what their options are moving forward. Each character was given their opportunity on screen during the movie. This is obviously easier to do since there are fewer characters after the events of Infinity War. I felt that many characters had an appropriate conclusion to their stories. The movie did leave me with a couple ...

Digital Ownership

 What Is? With the digital revolution, digital media has been sweeping the world. My memory of digital media was back with iTunes in 2001. There you could download music with a touch of a button from an actual retailer vs illegally with the bonus of malware to your computer. I actually had digital music from iTunes before I had a iPod or iPhone to play it on. In 2005, Apple released their video iPod and started to "sell" digital TV and movies. I am not saying Apple was the foundation for the digital revolution but it was my first positive experience with digital media. My first digital video purchase was the unaired Aquaman TV pilot as it was the only place to get it. What does purchasing something digitally really mean though? Apple and Amazon are coming under class-action lawsuits for their digital ownership definition of "buy" an item. The lawsuit stems from the fine print where retailers cannot guarantee you own the product but merely have unlimited streaming. T...
