'Smallville': Get a look at the Justice Society

Sun, 29 Nov 2009 00:47:43 +0000

A few pictures from "Smallville's" two-hour Justice Society movie have made their way online, revealing the looks of several superhero guest stars. The two episodes, "Society" and "Legends," will feature, among other characters, DC Comics heroes Hawkman, Doctor Fate and Stargirl. The show, which has so far shied away from putting Clark Kent (Tom Welling) in full Superman regalia, apparently doesn't have such qualms about its guest stars. Take a look at "Stargate's" Michael Shanks as Hawkman: Brent Stait ("Andromeda") is under the helmet as Doctor Fate, and Britt Irvin ("V") is playing Stargirl. Hawkman and Oliver Queen/Green Arrow (Justin Hartley) have a bit of a disagreement -- as they so often do in the comics. "Society" and "Legends" -- which are being packaged together as a movie titled "Absolute Justice" -- are set to air Feb. 5. Follow Zap2it on Twitter for the latest TV, movie and celebrity news.

'American Idol': Listen to Allison Iraheta's 'Just Like You'

Sun, 29 Nov 2009 00:13:39 +0000

Allison Iraheta was the designated rocker girl on "American Idol" last season, but her album "Just Like You" reminds us of a more pop-minded past "Idol" contestant: Kelly Clarkson. The 13 tracks on "Just Like You" -- which are streaming on MySpace Music and IdolBlogLive -- are a collection of radio-ready pop songs with a slight edge provided by Iraheta's pleasingly raspy voice. She doesn't have the sheer power or range of Clarkson, but none of these tunes would sound out of place on a Clarkson record (no surprise there -- one of the producers Iraheta worked with, Max Martin, has also collaborated with Clarkson). It's a nice first effort for the 17-year-old, whose album goes on sale Tuesday (Dec. 1), a week after records from her fellow "Idol" season eight contestants Kris Allen and Adam Lambert hit stores. The first single, "Friday I'll Be Over U," is already out . What do you think of "Just Like You"? Is it for you? Follow Zap2it on Twitter for the latest TV, movie and celebrity ...

'Twilight: Eclipse' releases (lame) teaser poster

Have you started your "Twilight Saga: Eclipse" countdown clocks yet? It's only seven months and two days away.

There's the word "eclipse" in the special "Twilight" font, a visual representation of a solar eclipse, the release date and some dark clouds.

If "Law & Order" can do "ripped from the headlines!" episodes, why not "CSI: Miami?" Picture this: beloved superstar baseball player with a perfect model wife and two beautiful children is in (as first reported) "serious condition" after an automobile crash in his neighborhood. The "CSI: Miami" team is on the case! As more and more details come to light, it turns out said athlete fought with his model wife prior to the accident. But wait -- now it sounds like the model wife heroically, valiantly smashed out the car window to drag her bleeding husband to safety. Except... rumors (unconfirmed) have just come to light that said athlete is having an affair. The final frame "CSI" reenactment is a domestic squabble over alleged affair. It shows the dramatic domestic dispute over the alleged mistress. The sports figure storms off, angry model wife in hot pursuit, wielding a *ahem* baseball bat. The player's car crash is actually caused by the enraged wife trying to smash out the back ...
