Time For DC To Assemble? Thn’s Guide To The Justice League Of America Movie

7 May 2012 10:34 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

With Marvel’S Avenegers Assemble taking an estimated $200 million in its opening weekend state side, let’s assume the superhero movie is only just getting started. Marvel Studios’ efforts have been a resounding success: expertly replicating their comic universe, expanding ever so slightly with each new movie, and culminating with Joss Whedon’s ultimate spandex-clad smackdown, proving the superhero ensemble can work. Can we now expect DC Comics to follow suit with its own super-squad, The Justice League of America?

Though DC are falling behind on big-screen solo projects, they do have an advantage: owned by Warner Bros, there will be no quibbling over character rights, and whilst Marvel will have to wait an age (and shell out big bucks) before they can include later members Spider-Man and Wolverine in their Avengers movies, DC will have no such problem. And with Marvel taking just four years to build a blockbusting franchise, »

Snuffed Out: TV Series That Were Gone Too Soon

3 May 2012 8:04 AM, PDT | AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news »

The fate of Gcb, one of our favorite new shows, will be decided in the next few weeks, and right now, there's a 50/50 chance it'll survive. If it does get canceled, at least it'll instantly become a member of what we'll call the Arrested Development/Freaks & Geeks/Firefly club. Shows that were canceled before their time, and have gained cult status since they left the airwaves.

All of those programs have rabid enthusiastic followers, and in the case of Firefly and Arrested Development, that fan enthusiasm has directly led to big screen resurrections.

We're hoping Gcb gets a renewal, but while we wait, let's take a look at a few other shows throughout the years that were unfairly snuffed out, and picture ... what might have been.

Pushing Daisies

ABC (October 3, 2007 – June 13, 2009)

Featuring a stellar cast, including Lee Pace, the incomparable Kristin Chenoweth, and Anna Friel as Dead Zooey Deschanel, Pushing Daisies »
