You Tube Theater

I have been very critical of the television show "Smallville" the last few years. There are certain triggers I think should have been pulled a few years ago. I have been wary of the direction of the show especially with this new season. As of right now there is no announcement of a new season as Tom Welling has not signed a new contract yet. The second half of the new season is coming up and the trailer looks pretty good. Check it out and expect a Martian Manhunter spin-off for next year.

* Everyone wants to know if there is a deleted scene in the "Incredible Hulk" dvd that features a frozen Captain America. I am going out on a limb and saying the answer to that is NO. What you will see if you pay very close attention is a photo of a frozen Captain America in the movie's new intro. You can see the pic below.

* Marc Guggenheim is in the middle of writing the screen adaptation of "Green Lantern" for Warner Brothers. The studio is hoping to start filming the movie in 2009 for a 2010 release. There's a rumor that Ryan Gosling is up for the role of Green Lantern: Hal Jordan.

* The little book that could is coming to an end. "Amazing Spider-Girl" is coming to an end with issue #30. This book actually lasted for a few years and avoided cancellation on multiple occasions.

* Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Lex Luthor will be making a return to Smallville at some point this season.

* A month ago we got a cool pic of Snake Eyes from the upcoming G.I. Joe movie. Next we were treated to a very peek of Scarlet. Now we have a ton of shitty pics of various different Joes and Cobras. Characters include Duke, Heavy Duty, Ripcord, Destro, Storm Shadow, General Hawk, and Baroness. You can get links to all the pics from Aint It Cool News. I don't want to give any spoilers but Destro doesn't have a metal head.

* Check out the teaser trailer for Heroes season 3. It doesn't tell us much, but it's badass.



* A few weeks back Micheal Rosenbaum announced that he would be growing back his hair and leaving Smallville. Wednesday's season finale is billed as the Clark/Lex confrontation that we've been waiting to see for seven years. It's now being reported that Alison Mack is playing hardball for more cash, hoping the producers don't want to lose another regular cast member. Expect her to be killed off Wednesday.

* Dc announced this week that Brad Meltzer (Indentity Crisis, JLA) is returning to write "Last Will and Testament". The 38 page one-shot will take place between issues 3-4 of "Final Crisis". The story itself takes place the night before a giant battle that happens in issue four of "Final Crisis".

* Beginning in November J. Micheal Straczynski (Amazing Spider-Man, The Twelve) and Jesus Siaz (The OMAC Project, Checkmate) will be the new creative team on "Brave and the Bold".
