DC Entertainment says NO MORE female superhero films for now

No so good news for Wonder Woman fans. Because of the slow sales of the Wonder Woman cartoon movie DVD, there are no plans for anymore Super Women for now.

Are there plans to do any more sequels for the recently released DC animated films?

"We had originally planned to do sequels for Wonder Woman and Green Lantern, but Wonder Woman’s sales started out extremely slow and then over time were eventually able to catch up to probably Justice League Frontier. The Exec’s decided because it wasn’t able to sell quickly right away, where as Justice League was, that there wouldn’t be any more female super hero films right now. We were developing and hoping to get started on a batgirl film based on Year One, but because of Wonder Woman’s slow sales start, that won’t be happening now.

"With Green Lantern, it didn’t perform nearly as well as what they had hoped it would. In the long run it eventually made its money back, but the sales weren’t there right away during its release. Hopefully with the release of the Live Action film next year, that will open up the doors for more Green Lantern relate material."

I hope this doesn't hurt Diana's chances for a live action movie. I'll keep hope alive.

No Spider-Man 4! Yes, to reboot we Don't want

Just as I talked about The Vulture being the villain in Spidey 4, the floor has been ripped from under me.

Spidey 4 is no more!

Tobey Maguire's web-slinging days are behind him.

The 34-year-old actor and "Spider-Man" director Sam Raimi will not be returning to the superhero franchise next year. Instead, Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios announced Monday that a new "Spider-Man" film based on a script by James Vanderbilt that focuses on Peter Parker in high school would debut in the summer of 2012 with a new cast and filmmaking team.

"I am so proud of what we accomplished with the 'Spider-Man' franchise over the last decade," Maguire said in a statement Monday. "Beyond the films themselves, I have formed some deep and lasting friendships. I am excited to see the next chapter unfold in this incredible story."

The announcement of a reboot comes after reports that "Spider-Man 4" production stalled amid script revisions.

Lord, then make the teen Spidey flick a cartoon. Nobody wants to see a teen Spider-Man, but teens. Ohhhh, we will see what happens with this.

No He-Man for Us

Well I'm a little sad, but okay about this news...

Warner Bros. and Mattel will be parting company on “Masters of the Universe,” the live-action reinvention of the signature Mattel toy line that WB and producer Joel Silver have been developing since 2007.

Mattel and WB didn’t see eye to eye over the direction of the project and made a mutual decision to let the option lapse this month. The film revolves around He-Man, a prince who becomes a warrior who battles the evil Skeletor for control of his magical homeland.

It's probably for the best. Hopefully a better deal well come through and that deal won't mess up my childhood memories.
