Animation quality/character design

I have long been underwhelmed by the animation quality and the art/character design in these DC animated films. It bothers me that they always know to sell it with a fantastic cover/promo poster, and yet they deliver a product in which characters look nothing like that.
But this seems to be the worst of the bunch. Superman in particular looks terrible here, and it really just makes the whole thing hard to watch. And it's a shame, because Doomsday is a villain (and story arc) that deserves to have a proper rendition. Since the live action films are content to simply re-use Zod and Lex ad nauseum without ever introducing any other villains, this animated feature was probably our best chance to see Doomsday in full motion glory. What a missed opportunity (to say nothing of the story changes).
