And... some other stuff

Entertainment Weekly is reporting that The CW has decided to turn "Smallville's" upcoming Justice Society-themed two-parter into a two hour movie event airing on January 29. Written by Geoff Johns, the episodes - titled "Society" and "Legends" and featuring such DC Comics stalwarts as Stargirl, Hawkman, and Dr. Fate - were originally designed to air separately. OOOOOOH!

Mark Harmon as Superman? Gina Torres as Super Woman?

Another trailer - Huh. This looks like fun.

There are Error Ring variants – with the wrong ring logos mixed with the wrong colours - of each of the color rings that are currently coming out with specific issues. That sounds like it would be fun to find.

Screenwriter Bill Birch says to Cinema Blend that while the Captain Marvel movie will have an edge to it — but it won't be Dark Knight gritty, and will probably have a PG-13 rating. He admitted that Dwayne Johnson could be a possibility for a role, possibly Captain Marvel, given Johnson's relationship with director Peter Segal.

Robert Patrick will appear in the midseason episode "Chuck Versus the Tic Tac."

According to an MTV exclusive, Dolph Lundgren may be headed for a cameo or more in Conan.

A rumor is that Black Cat will be in Spider-Man 4 and that they're even looking at actresses for the roll. Hmmmmmm.

According to a survey by Simba Information, One in 10 adult American book buyers also read comic books.

I really wish they'd cast Gina Torres as Wonder Woman. I know it'll never happen (and she's probably just this side of too old at this point anyway), but I have yet to think of anybody who would hold a candle to her in the role.

I decided a couple days ago the woman who played Saffron in Firefly would make a good Black Cat. She's certainly got the kahatchis for the part, anyway. :)

Current rumor is that it's Rachel McAdams as Black Cat.

I've heard a few other names as well. Depends on which site you look on.

Would a green ring of Hope be the perfect weapon?

[lithera.livejournal.com]

It would be hard to power.

[jameel.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't it power itself?

[lithera.livejournal.com]

I don't think so. You'd have to have a source of Will at least. I know blue repowers off of green but I would think you'd have to have a weilder who was strong in both...

Kyle!

Well...

[jameel.livejournal.com]

I know :)

Is it wrong that the voice in my head read that in Han Solo's voice?

[jameel.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

It is so very right.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

Excellent.

I have the yellow, indigo and orange rings so far, correctly imprinted. They are awesome. My little yellow Aveo wears the Sinestro ring on its turn signal lever, and I get to imagine what it could do to lousy drivers in bad traffic.

The very idea of The Rock playing Captain Marvel makes my head hurt.

[lithera.livejournal.com]

I think the Rock should be Black Adam but it will be a damned shame if that man doesn't get to play /some/ superhero.

Johnson would make a good Black Adam. NOT Cap.

As for Smallville.. OOH!

And Crisis on Two Earths, I'm liking. Always liked the pre-Crisis Earth-3 crowd.
