- Totally enjoyed it
Not a lot to say except that I totally enjoyed JLU. It was
great to sit back kick back and enjoy the old team despite the fact
that most of the focus was on the bad guys. They were funny in themselves.

Anyway recommend any JLU fan to have a squiz and see for yourself.

- Is this the end?? Say it ain't so.
No matter what anyone says, you have to have this! It's the end!! How can you miss the end of one of the greatest cartoons to ever hit television screens??? Huh?? Anyway,JLU ends with (Spoilers) the introduction to the Legion of Doom. This is only two disks so you'll probably breese through them pretty quick once you get hooked. I must say that the Superheroine brawl in Grudge Match was some of the craziest cartoon fighting I've ever seen. Darkseid looks really cool when he is resurrected by that idiotic Lex Luthor. As usual, Batman is the man! Just thought I should put that in. Well, I guess we say goodbye to Green Lantern, Hawkgirl (who's love triangle keeps you guessing)Flash(whose pretty much an open book) Jonn Jon'zz (Who has a family now! Who woulda thought)Wonder Woman (Ms. Princess of the Universe) Superman (The man of steel) Batman (The Man!!) and all the other dozens of DC heroes. We also say goodbye to excellent script writing and story lines as we enter the new age of C-class cartoons such as "The Batman" and "Legion of Superheroes." If you haven't gotten this best of the best cartoon yet, GET IT NOW!! Because it's not only the last of JLU, but the last of good cartoons period.

- All good things...
Possibly the best animated series in years wraps up in style in this final season of Justice League Unlimited. Although short at only 13 episodes, it does give fans what they have been looking for with a show-down between an updated Legion of Doom and the entire membership of the JLU. The two-part finale brings forth an epic showdown with a surprise villain, and nearly all of the heroes get some screen time. Overall, a great end to the series.

- Final DVD for Justice League Unlimited - Season Two
Good collection. I enjoyed the supplemental interviews. It seems that they thought the series was going to be cancelled at the end of Justice Leage Unlimited Season One. Then they got renewed for 13 more episodes. So, they decided to go with the Legion of Doom theme. I enjoyed the storyline.
As for DVD Quality - everything looks great. No complaints. (I hated Justice League Seasons 1 & 2 quality).

- Glad it's over before it's worse
No offence to anyone but I do not think this series is required. If you have Justice League - The Animated Collection Season One (2001), then that should be the ONLY one for you. Why? The stories and characterisations are so far superior than this disapointing collection. Justice League Unlimited is an example where producers and directors struggle to make a coherent storyline and in addition, over-use mindless action fighting sequences, display hereos with a sure-to-be KO'D in any episode that do not offer anything exciting or NEW to the stories. It's been done to death and frankly it's the same old same old. It's a pity, because this series had potential, but in my opinion fails to capture the essence of the heroes or give a point for why this series was ever named 'unlimited'. The only thing going for this series and season one of JLU is that you can say: Hey there is Vigilante, there is Vixen, I saw Red Tornado! So if you have a burning desire to see obscure heroes or villains that never made it in any other moving picture medium, in pointless stories, then this is for you, but if you want to see the finest, just be content with the 2001 edition of JL and forget the rest.

The Warner DVD authoring is very typical. No chapters to skip the annoying 90's style theme (again the JL 2001 is better). Interesting to hear the creators comments, but they just contradict themselves. There was nothing wrong with the original Super Friends series (which are coming to DVD). At least the Super Friends was more entertaining, and in time will out shine the JLU as the JLU becomes more and more outdated.
