- The Kents are pretty dumb!
- The art style was all over the place and pretty distracting. In ONE FRAME, you'll often see 3 or 4 different styles. An example: a field with semi-realistic Photoshop-looking wheat, a nicely detailed hand-painted-looking barn to the side, very low detail flat-looking truck beside it, some abstract hay bales in the field (seriously, with straight lines in the middle!), a non-realistic sky, then a cheap CG vortex thingy over the barn. Yikes.
- The characters themselves look as if they were designed by too many people (I've heard the styles are from various comic series), and their appearance can go from cool to just plain ugly/bizarre at times.
- If a human is flash frozen and released from his icy prison 1,000 years later, he will not only be alive (?!), but start walking around immediately like nothing happened. If he is frozen a week or two and is released, he will need superhuman power to revive. (?!?!)
- Diedrich Bader was a great Batman in The Brave and the Bold, but I feel his voice doesn't work for Batman in a non-camp role.
- How does a pocketwatch start going crazy, with the hands spinning back and forth, but the guy holding it and looking at it is completely unaffected? That's an extremely localized event, huh?
- The Washington Monument is, oh40 feet tall?
- Karate Kid has been around nearly 50 years in the comics, but how many people will figure he's some future superpowered version of Ralph Macchio?
- You are not told going into this that it isn't even the complete story! I recorded it on TV, where they alloted 2 hours for it, but after the first hour, they played a different show. Will there be a Part 2? Is this a test video for a new TV series? Should I care?
