Dina Meyer (Oracle) has always been a fave of mine. I think she's beautiful. Loved her in Starship Troopers.

I watched the pilot episode. It was pretty good. It seems darker than Smallville and there is more violence. Some examples of this are in the spoiler tag here:
Spoiler:
They show Batgirl get shot in the head by the Joker and then blood oozing out on the ground. Then there is another scene where a guy gets hit by a bus out of nowhere. There is also a scene where a guy gets impaled on a knife.

I don't think that
Spoiler:
the Joker shot Batgirl in the head, rather in the midsection, hitting her spine, thus paralyzing her.

I don't know. The premise and title for this series just sound so... lame.

I just saw that Mia Sara is replacing Sherilyn Fynn as Harley Quinn. (Say that 5 times fast!) She was Ferris Bueller's girlfriend and has done lots of different Made for TV movies and stuff.

They went with the wrong Mia, they should have gotten Mia Kirschner for the part of Harley Quinn.

New Birds of Prey pictures

www.cinescape.com just posted some new pictures from the new WB series, Birds of Prey. The best one is the one of Barbara as BatGirl. I know I will be dissapointed after the first episode when she is no longer going to where this outfit. It is awesome!!

She does wear a cowl in the pilot episode. That's just a shot of her without it.

That is one of the better Batgirl outfits I've seen.

kinda curious as to why the huntress and black canary don't have costumes, but bat girl had hers







anyone seen any photos of mia sara as harley quinn? i thought sherilyn fenn had the natural look for harley, but we'll see if mia can pull it off.

It's sort of explained in the pilot episode, to be shown in a few month, I imagine.

They need to pair it up with Smallville and have a super hero night instead of having it on Wednesday after Dawson's Creek. The same audience will watch both shows.

Wow, even though she's crippled and in a wheel chair, Barbara Gordon still knows enough to lean forward to show off more cleavage for the camera to help boost the buzz.
That's the mark of a genius level intelligence.
