Was it because J.J. Abrams signed a contract to use the TV rights of John Constantine for a Live Action Justice League Dark TV Series (Which is kinda sounds a little selfish).
@@blazingstorm9351 yeah. But at the same time neil gaiman also said it made more sense to him to just use Johanna for all the scenes. Since john only shows up for one part in the comic but Johanna does have more to do. So it was also less costly to not pick a different actor for John Constantine for just one episode
@@Themandalorian935yeah but they drop the ball when they made two different Johanna's, the original ancestor of John Constantine in episode 6 and the one in modern time in episode 3 who is just a gender flipped John Constantine. Personally I think they should have made ep3 Joahnna the same one of episode 6 that's somehow still alive due to some type of magic and be an archetypical high end detective as opposed to Johns hard boil detective. That way we could have some development for the original Johanna and still leave the door open for the possibility of having Matt showing up as John in future seasons.
The situation kind of was what it was, licensing-wise and so on, but I think they made lemonade with those lemons. Having Jenna Coleman play both generations of Constantine (and leaving it slightly mysterious as to why they look exactly the same) worked for the narrative, and helped link those two characters to an audience who might not pick up on their connection unless they're paying close attention otherwise.
I love this movie and the follow-up Constantine City of Demons. Matt Ryan as John Constantine is one of the greatest castings for a comic book character of all time. Every time he speaks it's as if the character leaps from the pagees. He honestly is to John Constantine what Kevin Conroy is to Batman.
@@eddiecarrion6176 And sadly besides animation you will never see him as Constantine live action ever again. Not that he ever got a proper shot at it, NBC was a bad fit for the show. Hannibal could get away with being weird for 3 years. Because it wasn't cheap but cheaper than what a full Constantine show would need, yet they wanted it to be a 22 episode thing until the ratings didn't do what they wanted. Because again it didn't fit the network. But it's not like the CW could have done a pure Constantine show at the time either either because of how people would automatically compare it to Supernatural. If Supernatural had gone of the air when it was supposed to until it got a 3 year extension. We would probably have gotten Constantine as a replacement show, and they could have done better things since a huge chunk of the budget wouldn't go to the actors anymore.
Hey maybe James Gunn will consider him. He’s aware of the Arrowverse, so he must know how much people love his version. Matt would be perfect and James is definitely not against a hard r rating which Justice League Dark and even more so John Constantine definitely needs. Matt Ryan IS John Constantine.
Matt Ryan as John Constantine and bringing that snarky, sarcastic, witty etc., personalities holding his own against Jason O' Mara's Batman is just fun to watch for this film. Also Constantine and Zatanna as a couple I definitely ship. That chemistry just worked so well.
I like that both here and in Young Justice both universes Zatanna is A LOT more than just your average sorceress she's literally like.... the catalyst for a magical goddess that has untapped magical potential
It's why Fate wanted her to be the host, but also knew it would be hard to work with the league with her not wanting to do it and Zatara being a league member himself he was just really playing a long game until she could take over. Yet it seems she was the one trying to play him, and I have wondered if the show kept going if she would have been able to grow strong enough to still have Fate's power but actually be in full control. Because Nobu is just to unreliable given the time they are living in. If he wanted to he could solve so many of the problems the planet and the universe faces constantly. Yet he's only acting when the entire planet is in danger. I think Zatanna could make good use of his powers. If she was smart she would have the League do something similar for the helmet what they did for Batman and his Hellbat Armor. If you infused it with the ability to tap into the speedforce, a mother and a father box and anything else the league could come up with. Fate would be on par with Doctor Manhatten. And Zatanna as that fate wouldn't even need the helmet. Just use a spell that reforge itself to merge with her skeleton structure.
Finally! The DC reactions continue! I can’t wait for you guys to eventually get to JL Dark: Apokolips War. That reaction is gonna be something. It’s probably the darkest DC movie ever. Also, I love Matt Ryan as Constantine. Whether it’s in his own show, animation, or Legends of Tomorrow, he’s perfect as the character. I wish they would do a spin off show with him and Tom Ellis as Lucifer. That Crisis cameo wasn’t enough!
I’m both intrigued by what their reaction will be but also I really don’t like that movie so I’ll probably just watch the discussion because that movie really kind of soured the rest of the universe for me because I’m like well what’s the point then it was all pointless
@@DrWatson4it was to show what it felt for the heroes to actually lose badly for once, since every other movie is just "a problem hurts maybe 1 JL member badly, but he/she recovers and everybody wins. " The years of time between Losing the battle to Darkseid and trying again impacted everybody in a different way, where everybody is grieving revenge and hungers for revenge.
I will say, when I rewatched this movie, Superman going into the shed to see all the corpses and looking back at the guy and saying, “what have you done…”, gave me chills
This is a really solid entry in the DC animated movie universe. Matt Ryan is a great Constantine, and I'm glad they brought him in from his show to be Constantine here too.
I love this movie, if for no other reason than Matt Ryan, who voices Constantine, also plays him in DC's Legends of Tomorrow, with damn near the same look
One of the most hilarious things Matt Ryan ever did was by insulting NBC by using a peacock feather as a back scratcher as a way to spite the network for canceling his show. It was during season 4 of Arrow which was quite hilarious.
Didn’t they have this in the same time slot as Supernatural? I faintly that being the case which was setting it up to fail against an established show of the same subject matter.
Yay more Coy and John reaction!! Always more enjoyable watching DC animation content with you guys!! It be so amazing if they could do this in live action. Cautiously hopeful it can be done
The dreamstone is referenced in the CW Flash. Nash Wells gives a shard of it to Allegra to defend herself by blasting her power through it to give her attackers nightmares
One of my favorite New 52 animated movie of DC. Especially, one of my favorite DC character Constantine (the british one) ✌️ Matt Ryan really portrayed John Constantine really, really good, that everytime I see Constantine I imagined he is voiced by Matt Ryan.
This was a good one- I was glad to see Zatanna with such a prominent role. This was my first time seeing Constantine live or animated- I knew who he was from the comic books, but this was good. I really loved my first trip through this shared universe, and I'm enjoying your reactions to these animated movies. Next up is Teen Titans The Judas Contract (or the Constantine stand alone movie if you're doing that one)- this continuity is rolling hard and fast now, and I'm glad you're enjoying the ride.
It'll be several weeks from now but can't wait when you guys react to Justice League Dark: Apokolips War. My fav DC animated film along with Red Hood and Flashpoint
I too love to see Detective Chimp in love action, but I did love how this movie shows how power Zatanna is which is only a faction compared to the comics
Literally just rewatched you guys react to these kind of movies yesterday, and I gotta say, I'm one of those people that genuinely enjoys watching this channels reviews of something they watch. I don't normally stick around for that sort of thing, idk what it is about this Channel.
30:02 - The music in this scene elevates this sequence very professionally. We're invested in the scene because we're invested in the musical riff continuing and ending in a gratifying way, just like the fight.
i was waiting for this for sooo long! Love these dcau reactions! keep 'em coming coy and john and greg too (ik greg is behind the camera contributing to this video)
Constantine's accent is from liverpool which is in the north west england and the fact Coy said he sounds northernish like london couldnt be more American. London is in the south of england, about 5-6 hour drive away😂
A lot of people mistakenly think Superman has a weakness to magic. He doesn't. He just has no protection against it. So magic does to him what it would do to the average person.
Some of my favorite little detail in this move are 1 batman has been around the shades of death so much without ever knowing they are there, that he is immune to the effects they have on non magical people 2 Batman can scare a shade of death without even seeing it 3zatanna is shown at her full power as the strongest naturally born human ever. (Which is why the helmet of Fate wants her and her own father gave up his life to become Dr. Fate in exchange for her ) 4 Constantine took over training zatarra in magic after her father became Dr. Fate. 5 Boston the Deadman daredevil couldn't possess Batman for more than a minute because of batman's insane control over his mind and body
Now I'm excited for you two to watch Apokolips War now!!! Its only right. Plus this part was funny: John "I wonder what Batmans cologne would smell like." Coy "Darkness" 👏😂
Matt Ryan is Constantine just like how Kevin Conroy is Batman. Literally can't even imagine a better voice for the character, his voice just defines Constantine for me.
For such a short movie, this does a great job of introducing really interesting characters and giving them some decent focus. I wish we got more with Swamp Thing, but even what we did get was great
If you guys haven't watched it already (after or sometime in between these DCAU reactions) I would love to see you guys react to the original Teen Titans animated show, then the Trouble In Tokyo movie that acts as the series finale.
This movie was amazing. Better than it needed to be. I've been fascinated by etrigan since I saw him in the BTAS. So to see him in this was the cherry for me. Plus, I'm less familiar with swamp thing but I know of him, saw the show, so to see him in this was also fun. The action was great, the plot was good. I think one of the best installations in this series.
Loved watching this film and reaction. Really hope this is apart of gunns plan down the line. A dark justice league film in live action would be dope. But all of these animated films in the DCAMU are great. I'm loving them all.
Just want to point out that the voice of Richie here is the same actor that played him in the series as well. He was in Lost as well. Great character actor.
Bless you fellas for not being able to hear the difference between a London accent (south east of England) & a Liverpool accent (north west England), loving your DC animated reactions
In order: Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox Justice League: War Son of Batman Justice League: Throne of Atlantis Batman vs. Robin Batman: Bad Blood Justice League vs. Teen Titans Justice League Dark Teen Titans: The Judas Contract Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay The Death of Superman Constantine: City of Demons Reign of the Supermen Batman: Hush Wonder Woman: Bloodlines Justice League Dark: Apokolips War
In this continuity the follow up film is Constantine: City of Demons but chronologically it’s Teen Titans: The Judas contract. Apokolips War ends this continuity and should be watched last (not considered IG films made outside of this universe)
I gotta say, I love almost every animated comic book movie and show, but DC has the freedom to be more gritty and dark than Marvel animation does. Not hating on Marvel stuff, I just love it when a show or a movie aren't afraid to go down a dark place.
They DO have a team of magick hero’s lead by Zatanna with Mary Bromfield and 13 Girl, Khalid Nassour, Madame Xanadu ( Nimue Inwudou ) and others like Constantine, Dr. Fate, Phantom Stranger.
We saw him in Constantine Season 1 which was cancelled and season 2 was never released, then in CW's Legends of tomorrow season 4. He has been our favourite since 2014.
Mark 11:21. Drat! "Elvira, Mistress of the Dark" was the last one in charge of that house when I was still collecting and reading comics. I've missed so much! 😕🫤🙁
Definitely a solid movie in the DCAMU line up. As always I love watching you guys react to these and can’t wait for you to watch the rest and eventually make your way into the new Tomorrowverse line of DC movies.
Love these reactions. JL dark really is one of the best Dcamu movies, Matt Ryan is the goat Constantine actor and that says a whole lot as Keanus movie was great. Would love if they somehow get Ryan into the 2nd movie
Personally while I like Keanu's movie it is just not the same Constantine from the comics, however I think his character and the world building are solid enough to be considered their own independent character/series. All it would need is for Keanu's character to have an iconic name of he's own.
@@agm5424oh no, doesn’t even hold a candle to the hellblazer comics. But I gotta say I don’t think anyone could pull that off, would love to be proven wrong though
I wonder if they got the demons idea from the movie Ghost from Patrick Swayze when they took Richie down to hell it looks like the same thing when they took that guy underneath the subway sorry for the long speech😊
Mark 11:47. Detective Chimp's initials are "DC"! Hehe! 😊😆 As an ape, he isn't a monkey. The lack of a tail indicates as much. He should quit those cigars. When did he start smoking? 🤔
Whats nice about the animated movies is that they arent just adaptations from the comic so you can enjoy all the stories from difference sources :) Justice League Dark has the best storylines since Constantine's thing is people constantly die around him so you always feel there are stakes and consequences. I also recommend Apokalips War and City of Demons where he fucks Los Angeles 😊
This film, Constantine City Of Demons and Justice League Dark Apokolips War are awesome, Matt Ryan is amazing as Constantine plus the death demons remind me of the soul wraiths out of the film Ghost
47:56 It was announced at star wars celebration that James Mangold is doing a star wars movie set during the Dawn of the Jedi Era. That's really his next big thing is in Star Wars.
Nothing makes me happier than Batman groaning angrily every time something magical happens around him. I really hope you guys watch Constantine: City of Demons to get more Matt Ryan action.
I have had this movie for a long time and i love it. I’m not the only one who loves it. I was friends with a guy who i wortked with in 2006 who was a DC fan and i let him watch my copy of this movie, unfortunately he kept it for a while and it took a long time for me to get it back

Y'all skipped (Constantine: City of Demons) which was the introduction of Constantine 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
@@xl081 They'll get to it, I'm sure. They've haven't watched these entirely in order. And they said before they plan to watch all of them.
@@mimic1984 They have been doing pretty good with staying in order besides that one movie Constantine: City of Demons
Matt Ryan is literally Constantine, was so disappointed when they didnt cast him in The Sandman. Hopefully we'll see him again someday.

Yes, these are just mere compared to Zatanna in comic
Matt Ryan is so underrated. He's the best live action and animated version of Constantine imo.
Easily
Nah
Fax
I'm still pissed that show was canceled.
Not really a high bar, but he is good.
The animated DC movies are some of my favorite reactions on the channel now. I love revisiting these awesome movies.

@@Iylaban I vaguely remember an interview where Matt talked about exactly that.
@@lalunadesangre1808 oh really? I suppose it makes sense but I still hope we get a full Scouse Constantine one day

Matt Ryan is the perect John Constantine, in both animated and live action
Yay more Coy and John reaction!! Always more enjoyable watching DC animation content with you guys!! It be so amazing if they could do this in live action. Cautiously hopeful it can be done
Another one of my fav dc animated movies ever I loved zatanna in this movie
The dreamstone is referenced in the CW Flash. Nash Wells gives a shard of it to Allegra to defend herself by blasting her power through it to give her attackers nightmares

still loving these reaction videos... Justice League Dark is such a good comic.
Highly recommend the Constantine City of Demons movie as well as the live - action show. Love em both
It'll be several weeks from now but can't wait when you guys react to Justice League Dark: Apokolips War. My fav DC animated film along with Red Hood and Flashpoint
I will have to say this is one of my favorite DC cartoon/movie, IT IS THAT GOOD!!
Man seeing you go through these movies gets me more and more excited to watch you see how this universe storyline ends. Beyond amazing!
Justice League Dark is soo good ! Can't wait for them to debut in the live action DCU
It would be a disaster if brought into live action
I hope so my bro

Nice Reaction Guys! Hopefully we get a live action Justice League Dark in the DCU
i love constantine. him and batman are always fire together
Matt Ryan was literally born to play Constantine. In live action or animation. I really hope he’s in the DCU.
Little known fact, Batman and Zatanna are kind of childhood friends.
30:02 - The music in this scene elevates this sequence very professionally. We're invested in the scene because we're invested in the musical riff continuing and ending in a gratifying way, just like the fight.
Never stop reacting to these DC animated properties! These are officially my favorite videos from this channel
i was waiting for this for sooo long! Love these dcau reactions! keep 'em coming coy and john and greg too (ik greg is behind the camera contributing to this video)
Constantine and Zatanna deserve more love. I hope they can be introduced in Gunns version, they're due for a live action in the DCEU
I know this is wishful thinking, but I would love for them to cameo in the Swamp Thing movie James Mangold is making.
@@jbearclowater yes!
Its rumored dula peep is gonna be Zatanna
Love this movie. It just makes it all the more aggravating we haven't gotten a live action version
The halfway point of the DCAU and one of my favourites
The animated movies prove you can have a continuity of films going while also having elseworlds like Batman vs TMNT and it all hits.
Zatana powering up was pretty cool, and kinda terrifying
Constantine's accent is from liverpool which is in the north west england and the fact Coy said he sounds northernish like london couldnt be more American. London is in the south of england, about 5-6 hour drive away😂
Judas Contract is probably my fav but this one is a pretty close #2 love these reactions ya'll keep em coming!!
A lot of people mistakenly think Superman has a weakness to magic. He doesn't. He just has no protection against it. So magic does to him what it would do to the average person.
Some of my favorite little detail in this move are
1 batman has been around the shades of death so much without ever knowing they are there, that he is immune to the effects they have on non magical people

3zatanna is shown at her full power as the strongest naturally born human ever. (Which is why the helmet of Fate wants her and her own father gave up his life to become Dr. Fate in exchange for her )
4 Constantine took over training zatarra in magic after her father became Dr. Fate.
5 Boston the Deadman daredevil couldn't possess Batman for more than a minute because of batman's insane control over his mind and body
Now I'm excited for you two to watch Apokolips War now!!! Its only right.
Plus this part was funny:
John "I wonder what Batmans cologne would smell like."
Coy "Darkness"
👏😂
That “I have a butler” line 😂😂😂
I like how Batman always ends up in a group of people with weird abilities
For me, Batman is always the actual leader of the Justice League and its true founder, the mastermind of everything
thank you for the editorial clarification at 8:10 i like when channels do this
Rewatching these and missing these videos all the time! Wish you'd watch the rest of the animated DC movies.

I love this movie Matt Ryan is Constantine
I love how Batman is just unphased with almost anything magic in this movie. His rouge gallery really messed his mind if that's the case.
Just want to point out that the voice of Richie here is the same actor that played him in the series as well. He was in Lost as well. Great character actor.
I love that if captions are on you can read the backwards spells Zatanna says :)

Good work guys, there's a couple more of the dark series, you're gonna love them.

Yes. What an intro for the cat
I’m excited for the Dark movies, so good!
We saw him in Constantine Season 1 which was cancelled and season 2 was never released, then in CW's Legends of tomorrow season 4.
He has been our favourite since 2014.
Matt Ryan is literally the perfect Constantine, both animated and love action
Yes! Please do the second one soon!
Mark 11:21. Drat! "Elvira, Mistress of the Dark" was the last one in charge of that house when I was still collecting and reading comics. I've missed so much! 😕🫤🙁
Definitely a solid movie in the DCAMU line up. As always I love watching you guys react to these and can’t wait for you to watch the rest and eventually make your way into the new Tomorrowverse line of DC movies.
The 'Mister Salieri sends his regards' was such a delight.
I like how this seems stand alone within the dcau, yet is the tie in to the last one and the first one of this universe!
Matt Ryan's John Constantine is one of my favorite characters. I hope we see him again.
4:00 time for new Robin
"Arghhh its like reheated shit"- Coy that just killed me dude. 😂😂😂💀
Superman has many weaknesses, Curses and Magic included
Love these reactions. JL dark really is one of the best Dcamu movies, Matt Ryan is the goat Constantine actor and that says a whole lot as Keanus movie was great. Would love if they somehow get Ryan into the 2nd movie
Personally while I like Keanu's movie it is just not the same Constantine from the comics, however I think his character and the world building are solid enough to be considered their own independent character/series. All it would need is for Keanu's character to have an iconic name of he's own.
@@agm5424oh no, doesn’t even hold a candle to the hellblazer comics. But I gotta say I don’t think anyone could pull that off, would love to be proven wrong though
I wonder if they got the demons idea from the movie Ghost from Patrick Swayze when they took Richie down to hell it looks like the same thing when they took that guy underneath the subway sorry for the long speech😊
Batman grunting is another of the highlights of this movie. Him just casually rationalizing what he's seen in the most Batman way possible XD
This was one my favourite DC animated films; so great and enjoy guys!
We told you guys you were going luv the DCAMU and the standalones the more you watch them.
Mark 11:47. Detective Chimp's initials are "DC"! Hehe! 😊😆 As an ape, he isn't a monkey. The lack of a tail indicates as much. He should quit those cigars. When did he start smoking? 🤔
I was waiting for them to watch to this one!
Whats nice about the animated movies is that they arent just adaptations from the comic so you can enjoy all the stories from difference sources :) Justice League Dark has the best storylines since Constantine's thing is people constantly die around him so you always feel there are stakes and consequences.
I also recommend Apokalips War and City of Demons where he fucks Los Angeles 😊
This film, Constantine City Of Demons and Justice League Dark Apokolips War are awesome, Matt Ryan is amazing as Constantine plus the death demons remind me of the soul wraiths out of the film Ghost
43:40 I just saw that it’s confirmed that James Mangold is directing swamp thing for the dcu 🐐👌🏾😊😤🤯 It’s going to be mad, Coy
This one of my favorite movies in the DC. Anything that Matt Ryan is a must watch.
47:56 It was announced at star wars celebration that James Mangold is doing a star wars movie set during the Dawn of the Jedi Era. That's really his next big thing is in Star Wars.
Nothing makes me happier than Batman groaning angrily every time something magical happens around him.
I really hope you guys watch Constantine: City of Demons to get more Matt Ryan action.
*Batman literally holding baby orphan* I think I’ll name him Robin. Training starts Monday.
4:50 - Batman seems to regard the other league members as snobby liberals on an ivory tower rather than "protectors".
Solve this come up in your feed so I spent the time to actually watch this movie today just because you guys reacted to it it's pretty awesome
Constantine is one of my favourite dc characters of all time. Just a cocky british magic con man is so fun
I have had this movie for a long time and i love it. I’m not the only one who loves it. I was friends with a guy who i wortked with in 2006 who was a DC fan and i let him watch my copy of this movie, unfortunately he kept it for a while and it took a long time for me to get it back
