"Justice League: Gods and Monsters" review

WITHOUT revealing any spoilers, "Justice League: Gods and Monsters" is a very entertaining DC animated video, where there's no way anyone is going to predict the outcome to the story.

Yes, it was well worth the $17.99 I paid for the DVD, with shipping to my home.

This is an alternate universe tale, unique in its unorthodox characters. There were at least three pivotal moments in the 76-minute storyline, where I was totally surprised by the outcome.

Thus, this movie is more about "what if" and "Wow, I didn't expect that" rather than all about its action scenes.

I'm still mystified why DC can produce such great animated movies, well ahead of Marvel, and yet fall short on the big screen of live action movies.

While I'm still waiting for DC to do a "Secret Identity" animated movie, I'm not disappointed by their Superman projects otherwise.

-Regarding the related "Justice League: Gods and Monsters" limited comic book series, I thought that it was ever better than the animated movie. It is surely one of DC's best comics series of 2015.

"Man of Steel" sequel plot holes

The "Man of Steel" actually seemed like a better movie the second time I saw it on the big screen.
However, there are some plot holes that could resurface in a future sequel to the movie.
1. Although I did see a LexCorp name on a tanker trunk in the movie, Lex himself was nowhere to be seen.
I find it highly out of character that Luthor, a genius, would do nothing in the "Man of Steel" movie while Metropolis was invaded by aliens.
The movie could have easily referenced Luthor, without showing his face, as having a backup plan of his own, if the military and Superman failed in their efforts to stop Zod.
2. Jimmy Olsen was nowhere in the movie. Why?
That Jenny Jurwich character at the Daily Planet was annoying, though -- more so than Lombard. (Also, I'm still 
trying to figure how Clark Kent got a job at the Planet. 
Nowhere in the movie were any journalistic leanings or training mentioned for Clark ....)
3. What happened to any Kryptonian tech/ships leftover from Zod's attack? Did Superman salvage anything, or did 
the government get it?
4. Why wasn't Superman's actual landing and being found by the Kents shown in the movie? Will that be some bonus 
material in the DVD?
5. The fact that Lois Lane knows who Clark Kent is from the onset dramatically changes their future relationship.
