Superman/Batman: Public Enemies/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • And the Fandom Rejoiced: Fans were pretty happy to hear about Public Enemies but then the makers said the three names that made everyone lose their minds: Kevin Conroy, Tim Daly, and Clancy Brown. Rejoicing indeed.
    • And author of the comic version, Jeph Loeb, probably rejoiced, too, as in an interview about the movie when it was first announced, he basically said something along the line of, "Just get Kevin Conroy, Tim Daly, and Clancy Brown and I'll be happy."
  • Crowning Moment of Awesome: The movie is called Superman/Batman, so there are many. Special mention must go to Superman's final words to Luthor.

Luthor: I am the President!
Superman: Consider yourself * PUNCH* impeached.

  • Crowning Moment of Funny: "Clark... what the hell are good villains?"
    • Lex Luthor calling Amanda Waller a bitch after she gives Batman and Superman the information they were searching for to stop the meteor.
    • The opening comment from "The Weekly Show".
    • Major Force calling Batman a piece of... well, you know. Right as Batman throws what can only be profanity-retardant goo in his face.
  • Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: "That was my best friend." This might be the very first time Superman explicitly states that they're best friends. Cue lip quiver.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: The four ice villains who team up on Batman (with the exception of Killer Frost being the Louise Lincoln version here instead of the original Crystal Frost version) are the same ones making trouble in the opening scenes of Young Justice.
  • Nightmare Fuel: Metallo's horribly-burned body. Also the sight of a very 'roided-up Luthor could also be unsettling.
  • So Cool Its Awesome: Admit it, Luthor having built a holographic statue of himself on the National Mall is highly awesome.
  • Squick: Honestly, did we really need to see Lex Luthor kissing Amanda Waller?
