The Guardians of Justice

There isn't really much else to say, it's a nostalgic and super hero ripoff from everything pop culture over the last 40 years.

The acting and story telling are pretty poor but somehow that adds to my enjoyment of it.

It's the type of turd that you push out and you're so proud of your achievement that you take a picture and show your friends and family.

This series (season 1, 7 episodes) is a cluttered parody of superhero stories that fails as much as it succeeds. The failures include a very bad choice for the lead Hawk, who is uninteresting and silly while attempting to be the smart "Batman" leader, and the lack of humor that might've made a script like this work. The odd mishmash of graphics are part nostalgia, part video game and part animated superhero stuff which, again, lacked humor and ends up being an irrelevant hodgepodge of junk. The successes include intriguing social-political commentaries (despite including the tired theme of secretly-gay men hiding their love) and some brilliant editing work. Not much to redeem this one, but it's still a data point in the world of superhero stories so from that perspective, maybe it should be assimilated... while you wash the dishes or something.

..the scenes with actors are comically bad.

You can tell all the production money went into the animated parts, which are really good, lots of different styles of animation. The plot is good and intriguing too they even have some nice twists. The downfall really are the actors, sets and most importantly the costumes. I thought maybe they are intentionally bad as a parody but then they are not bad enough to make that obvious. It seems like they tried and failed and the plastic wigs.. well.. The idea on paper justice League, with computer game references in a dark setting with war knocking at humanity's door is a great concept the execution was lacking though...

It uses the "80s VHS Sci-fi" angle as an excuse for cheap sets, bad acting and using animation in favour of live action. It's really bad. Andy Milonakis was the only thing good about this.

This is a great series that delivers everything you'd ever want from an 80s style tv series.. using a mixture of live action, animation, stop motion, 8 but and cgi this has everything to keep me glued to the screen.. they've even managed to nail the dodgy acting of the 80s movies that my generation all grew up loving.. superb series.
