Amazing.
Even though the writing was heavy handed (srsly, I felt like every time they opened their mouth I was being plotsmacked) and the voice acting was typical for a DC animated series... even if it wasn't exactly anything NEW and they screwed comics canon to hell...
I loved it.
When I watched the released 5 minute preview I was like OH M' GOD ROY WHY SO ANGRY? And actually... yeah, SO ANGRY but... it worked. And Roy quitting meant they didn't need to deal with the whole 'omg we can't have a junkie hero on our kids show!' I liked how they handled it.
And hell, I just liked Roy. :( And oh man, Ollie's face when he was all 'well I figured just this once' and Batman was all >|... and man. :(
And then... I'm not actually sure Dick was much of a hacker at that age though I'm pretty sure he becomes at least proficient later. I could deal with it though. He was so adorable and TOTALLY stuck on 'whelmed'. The boys sort of... sucked at working together but it was cute. I mean, it's not like they were AWFUL they just weren't amazing.
I do like Aqualad though. He's all >| srs face followed by :\ face. And I kind of GIGGLE (internally because I watched it with people in the room) every time he calls Arthur his 'king'. I was all 'giggle giggle OH ARTHUR'. OUTRAGEOUS.
And oh, my god. Okay, so, the boys go to Cadmus because 'Batman is suspicious let's prove ourselves as heroes'. So, they go to Cadmus and break in. And I just... I loved Guardian, and I loved Dubbilex, and once they reached project 'Kr' (the atomic symbol for Krypton! REALLY WALLY?! REALLY DC?! Plotsmack!) I was like 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!'
Superboy is such a cute powerhouse. AND A WOOBIE. SRSLY. EVERY TIME HE TALKED IT WAS LIKE WOOBIE WOOBIE MC WOOBIE!
Woobiest woobie in woobieville.
Wally: Are you going to fry us or break us out?
Superboy: ~glare~ It appears I don't have heat vision.
And oh, oh, Aqualad/Superboy, I already ship it. Aqualad was all 'quietly talking down the crazy guy' and being all 'kickass and strong' with him and then whispering and helping override the telepathic control!
Also, Clark is such a super DICK. :| But this is canon everywhere. Dear Clark, when some woobie looking boy in ripped white spandex appears and looks at you with BIG BLUE HOPEFUL EYES you're not supposed go 'oh shit please get an abortion'.
Amazing.
