SMALLVILLE: Connecting to the DC Universe - A Look Back

Posted: 22 Jan 2013 09:36 AM PST

This piece is being presented as it was originally written during Smallville's sixth season. Written by and © Edward Gross Year-by-year Clark Kent has been on a journey to fulfill his ultimate destiny as Superman. Along the way, his television vehicle, Smallville, has been embracing the character's roots and the DC Universe itself as a means of layering the mythos and helping Clark in his evolution. Although throwing aside comic continuity en route to doing so, the show has successfully integrated touchstone Superman elements such as the Daily Planet, Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen and Brainiac (not to mention series regulars Lex Luthor and Lana Lang), and "guest stars" from DC, including the Flash, Aquaman, Cyborg, and, in particular, season six's Green Arrow. "The use of DC elements are often gifts to the deep geek fans," says executive producer Darren Swimmer. "Even for viewers who don't get the references, I think it adds some dimension to

Bruce Boxleitner Talks TRON: UPRISING And The Possibility Of Returning For TRON 3

Posted: 22 Jan 2013 08:50 AM PST

Speaking with Coventry Telegraph, Bruce Boxleitner discusses the possibility of appearing in Disney's TRON: Legacy sequel, which was recently confirmed to be moving forward. Despite being seemingly confirmed for a return as the original Tron, the actor isn't certain if he will reprise the role again. "I don't know. They say yes, they say no. It's way above my pay grade to be able to tell you that. It's still a money-maker for them (Disney), and it's still a great franchise. They announced it at San Diego Comic-Con, so I'm not speaking out of school here, but it's in development, and development can take a while. We've got to get that creative team back again. I do know they're working on the story concepts and stuff like that." Recently, it was confirmed that the threequel is on the fast track, with a new screenwriter on board and Garrett Hedlund expected to

Posted: 22 Jan 2013 10:12 AM PST

"The Bachelor" star Sean Lowe is having a tough time narrowing down the women vying for his affection, but it looks like contestant AshLee Frazier might be emerging as the frontrunner.

At the beginning of the show, Lowe said, "One week in and I find myself digging a lot of women and it's blowing me away right now."

Still, Sean had to let a few women go, including Kacie, telling her, "I admire you... and I have way too much respect for you to make you stand through another ceremony when I know in my heart that we're better off as friends." Taryn and Kristy also went home. Read full recap at EOnline.com.

End of Week 4: 288 pounds
Total loss: 40 pounds

Week 4, Ho! 

Red team is definitely feeling the pressure. We have just eliminated Cate and all we want to do is eat dinner and get some rest. 

But it wouldn't be a week on the Biggest Loser ranch if there weren't a wrench tossed into our plan. Alison Sweeney and the trainers (Bob Harper, Jillian Michaels and Dolvett Quince) walk into the kitchen and tell us that three more people will be leaving the ranch. Automatically, our first thought is "NO! We can't eliminate three more people tonight!"

James Franco & Michelle Williams Featured In New Image From OZ THE GREAT AND POWERFUL

Posted: 22 Jan 2013 08:30 AM PST

"Oz The Great and Powerful" imagines the origins of L. Frank Baum's beloved character, the Wizard of Oz. When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he's hit the jackpot—fame and fortune are his for the taking—that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone's been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity—and even a bit of wizardry—Oscar transforms himself not only into the great and powerful Wizard of Oz but into a better man as well. Directed by Sam Raimi
