Wonder Woman TV show not picked up


The pilot for NBC's proposed Wonder Woman TV show has failed to impress the execs at the studio, who have deemed it not good enough to commission for a series. From the sounds of the script, this is probably good news. Hopefully they won't just let it die is development hell because the character has loads of potential. I'd like to see NBC consider the flaws, how to improve them and give it another go.

As Arkham Asylum took many cues from comics such as Arkham Asylum: Living Hell and Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth, it appears that Arkham City will be taking many cues from the year-long No Man’s Land storyline. Following a massive earthquake that tore most of Gotham county to the ground, the city itself was deemed unsalvageable by the US Government and was sealed off from the rest of the country by a military blockade. Anyone found trying to enter or leave the new no man's land would be shot. Within the city boundaries were criminals, homeless, infirm, those who couldn't or refused to get out in time and those that stayed to protect them. Feudal states soon emerged, with 'gangs' showing fealty to a leader in return for food and protection. The leaders were the more charismatic criminals from Arkham, such as Penguin, Two-face, Scarface and the Joker. With limited resources and less-than-stable leaders the gangs were often at war to gain as much territory as possible.

Green Lantern sequel foreshadowed in trailer?

I'd just like to point out that this massive symbol in flames from the new Green Lantern trailer is the Sinestro Corps symbol.
Will Sinestro go rogue in Green Lantern 2? Count on it.

Green Lantern Trailer 2

This movie is going to rock all yellow out of the theatre. If any of your friends or family make fun of you for liking comics, tell them to be quiet and show them this .
