| DC Resurrects ‘Justice League Dark’ As Next Animated Feature
Last summer Warner Bros. temporarily banished their DC Comics superhero film project Justice League Dark to the bleakest depths of Development Hell following the departure of Hellboy and Pacific Rim director Guillermo del Toro. The project would have brought together the DC Universe’s strangest supernatural heroes including Swamp Thing, the Demon, Zatanna, and John Constantine, but was not intended to be part of the studio’s plans for an extended cinematic universe based on other popular DC characters. Without del Toro at the helm, the feature looked as good as finished. But although Justice League Dark might never exist as a live-action film, it looks as if we will soon be seeing it in animated form.

| How ‘Rick and Morty’ Became A TV Show (Video)
Adult Swim’s Rick and Morty from Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon is one of the best animated series on TV today, without a doubt. It’s a science fiction comedy that’s fat-trimming funny, but will sock you in the gut with something emotional out of nowhere from time to time and be back to the laughs before you’ve had time to recover. When it comes to a show like this we don’t always think about how it was born, the path that it traveled to become a real thing that we look forward to watching when it’s on. YouTube channel The Court of Source was just created late last month, and only has three videos uploaded so far. But in their latest video, which is set to pass an impressive 300,000 views, they offer the story of how Rick and Morty came to be for any fans interested in knowing it. You can check out the video below.
