Nope, but they should at least respect the characters enough not to fuck with em like this, movie is a sad joke, largely imo because all of the new introduced characters are clowns.
I wouldnt mind seeing a JLA movie being prefaced with a proper Doomsday crash landing in metropolis and some eye candy for Supes to cut loose for 15 mins. Doomsday as part of a Zod mutant Lex plan and pick up its shit and geta fuck outta here though. Its simply a waste and another reason the movie is getting laughed at.
Yes I know. Rao is also the name of Krypton’s red sun. But I also know that there was actually a person named Rao, and he had something to do with primordial Krypton. I just don’t remember if he was the guy who made Doomsday or if it was someone else.
Also, in the Superman/Batman comics they battled a kryptonite-enhanced zombie Doomsday (his name was All-American Boy). That seems to be closer to movie Doomsday. He was a genetic modification (human injected with Kryptonian DNA and kryptonite enhancements and additional bullshit) made by the government specifically to fight Superman. He only ever appeared in one issue, but it fit into the whole “Waller distrusts JLA” scheme so there’s at least a little potential in movie Doomsday getting an okay background.
Rao is a God, and the personification of their Sun (hence the dual names). There is a Rao right now, and he’s a villain (or so it seems). Story is still going on.
And of course neither the Teen Titans or Young Justice VAs get to reprise their roles. I guess that honor only ever goes to Kevin Conroy and Clancy Brown and Mark Hamill.
