Justice League on Smallville (Spoilers)

[dnno1]

According to a Scott Nance piece over at SyFy Portal, the Millar and Gough team will be doing an episode of Smallville featuring the Justice League. Titled "Justice" the episode will feature the following previously seen characters:


Green Arrow - Justine Hartley

Cyborg - Lee Thompson Young

The Flash - Kyle Gallner


Aquaman - Alan Ritchson

The air date for the episode will be January, 2007. Unfortuantely Wonder Woman will not be in the episode (blame Joel Silver for that).

This episode has 'camp' written all over it.

 

[DarKush]

If it's camp, I wouldn't mind attending it. I think it's a cool idea. I've often wondered what happened to those guys and it's nice that we will get to find out.

Sweet cyborg returns now if only he could get his own show.

 

[Joker]

I can't wait for this episode...I love the Flash and Green Arrow

As long as it doesn't get reduced to a sci-fi take on the final episode of "Seinfeld" where all the guest characters from the entire series showed up for that one ridiculous show. This could end up as a total "jumping the shark" move with Aquaman riding the waters.

-so sayeth the mastermind-

I still hope they try to sneak in bats.

 

[dnno1]

I doubt it.

The episode is titled "Justice". I'm sure they mean Justice Society (i.e. for members who do not have their own major motion picture or tv show). Apparently Joel Silver (who owns the rights to the Wonder Woman film) would not allow Millar and Gough to use the character on the show. I don't know if the same disposition exists with The Batman, but based on the fact that the character was just a reference in "Birds of Prey" I think it does.

At least you get credit for watching that episode.

 

[Steelsheen]

I dont know about this show anymore. Thank god its the last season

 

[Prognosticator]

They need to add Adam West to the cast of Smallville. Maybe as a time-traveling Bruce Wayne!

 

[Bruce_Wayne29]

I dont know about this show anymore. Thank god its the last season

Season 7 will be the last one. And actually there's talks of an 8th season already...

 

[dnno1]

He must have meant that it would be the last season he would be watching it. At least he is watching it.

 

[OmeletDeFromage]

That's practically a superhero costume on GA. It must really be the last season if they're bending the "no tights" rule already.

 

[Dr. MIX]

Ew..

I think the embargo only applies to the Clark Kent character. I think the costume can not be associated with the character because he (Clark) would be construed as Superboy (a charcater which TWX and DC no longer have the copyrights to since 2004). Prior to 2004 there may have been an agreement with the studios and the series not to have the character in costume so as to not take away from the "Superman Returns" project that was in developement and production at the time.

I don't think anyone can difinitively say exactly when the last season of "Smallville" will be since there are a lot of factors that may determine its fate. First of all (and this is trivial) poor ratings could have the series axed in mid season (though I doubt that this will be the case). Secondly there is a copyright infringement trial scheduled regarding the rights to the Superboy character and a ruling on weather or not "Smallville" is a show about Superboy or a young Clark Kent is pending. If the ruling is in favor of the Siegel family then TWX would be in violation of the copyright and the series could end soon after that . If it is proven that TWX is not in violation, then the series could continue so long as it has good ratings .

bruce wayne should be in it to

bruce wayne should be in it to

Yes he should. I mean if you can't introduce the remaining two of the Trinity . . . then what's the point of introducing anyone at all?

 

[Sebastos]

This is going to be really awesome.

Sweet cyborg returns now if only he could get his own show.

I'm not sure about his own show. What about a live action Teen Titans?
