Just to argue for the side that the movie IS in-continuity with DCAU, I'm going to nitpick some of your nitpicks, Yojimbo.
As you mentioned there's no reason Power Girl couldn't have popped up in the DCAU at some point after Galatea. After all there's definitely been a precedent set for...
While I can appreciate your theory, I feel that placing "Wild Cards" before "A Better World" doesn't work for continuity due to the Green Lantern/Hawkgirl romance.
While there's nothing explicitly stated one way or the other about the status of their relationship in ABW, that story was clearly...
One potential continuity complication could be Nightwing's location. If the movie has him still operating in Gotham City, then it would suggest that the timeframe takes place before JLU's "Grudge Match." That episode implied he had already moved to Bludhaven.

That's not really an excuse for illogical or poor storytelling.
It's not a question of visuals, it comes down to real life timing.
A comic book can depict action which takes place in a 1/10th of second using pages of exposition and numerous panels to narrate the action. It's up to the reader...
Those villains work in the comics because the writer and artist can dictate the speed of the interaction between characters using captions and inner monologue which the audience can read at its own pace.
Live action and animation doesn't work that way. Just watch the Flash TV show and you'll...

If I had to take a guess on the VA for Jason Woodrue after watching the sneak peek, I would have said Richardson as well. But you're right that it would be odd for him to not be listed among the cast. Maybe it is DiMaggio and he's just doing his best Richardson impression.

Here's an unofficial but well-researched timeline for Barbara Gordon: Babs Timeline
It takes into account her early graduation from high school (at age 16) and a fictional congressional bill that allowed her to run for congress at age 20.

Capt. Cold portrayed as ex-military makes perfect sense to me.
First, if his military background includes work in electronics/engineering it could help more convincingly explain his proficiency with a freeze gun, a traditionally high-tech weapon.
And second, it gives a more logical reason for...
