Justice League of America (TV movie): Difference between revisions

{{work}}

''Justice League of America'' was a 1997 [[Made for TV Movie|television movie]] made as a [[Live Action Adaptation]] of the [[Justice League of America]] comic book.

 

The TV movie never aired in the United States, despite being commissioned and produced by [[CBS]] as a [[Pilot Movie]] for an eventual television series. However, [[Short Run in Peru|it was shown in other countries]] (notably Channel 5 in the United Kingdom), which is why [[Keep Circulating the Tapes|bootlegs circulate at conventions]]. Many claim it's [[So Bad It's Good]].

 

 

* [[Adaptation Distillation]]: Averted. The Justice League has been around for decades and featured numerous characters and storyarcs but this pilot focused on just one period. [[Word of God]] stated that the series was meant to reflect the J.M. DeMatties and Keith Giffen run from the late 80's and early 90's due to its trademark comedy. This in evident in the fact that the series' tone and the team lineup is almost identical to the Giffen/DeMatties era. While their run was very popular with fans, it was long gone by the time the pilot was filmed.

* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: Ice has light brown hair, while she was a [[White-Haired Pretty Girl]] in the comics. Fire is a brunette, but the example is arguable since the comicbook one, despite having green hair, it was dyed green on her natural brown hair.
