DVD: Reginald Hudlin on Black Panther and Letting His Geek Flag Fly

Certain comic book characters remain popular on the page but seem to defy adaptation to the big screen — Entertainment Weekly recently asked whether or not we’d ever see a Wonder Woman movie. But for filmmaker and former Black Entertainment Television president Reginald Hudlin, writing first a comic book and then an animated series of Black Panther (out today from Shout! Factory) was a way to visualize a cinematic adventure for a character that Hudlin calls the African equivalent of Captain America.

Golden Globe Fashion Face-Off: J. Lo vs. JLH

Before Jennifer Lopez can critique American Idol contestants this season, we’re here to judge the singer and her style at last night’s Golden Globe Awards. As she tries to climb back on to the A-list, J. Lo showed up at the event and handed out hardware alongside Alec Baldwin. Jennifer Love Hewitt, meanwhile, was also present because she was actually nominated for a Golden Globe. No, seriously! Alas, she lost out to Claire Danes in the category of Best Actress in a Television Movie. But could JLH make up for that loss with a victory in the following poll? You tell us.

‘Glee’ Justin Bieber Episode Needs ‘The Hairdo,’ Darren Criss Says

On Golden Globes red carpet, actor also pleads for Gwyneth Paltrow’s character to teach at his Dalton Academy. By Aly Semigran, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Darren Criss Photo: Steve Granitz/ WireImage It was a good night for “Glee” at the Golden Globes, to say the least. If Chris Colfer and Jane Lynch’s wins (not to mention the show walking away with the award for Best Television Series- Comedy or Musical for the second straight year ) weren’t enough to satisfy fans, new addition Darren Criss had plenty of news to have them Gleeking out. The actor — who made Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream” even more popular than the original during his first season — talked about Justin Bieber and Gwyneth Paltrow with our very own Josh Horowitz. The lively star, who donned a pair of hot-pink sunglasses, joked that he wanted to rock fellow Globes attendee and presenter Justin Bieber in his arms. In addition to finding out that the tween star was nearby, he also heard the news (thanks to co-star Amber Riley telling MTV News) that the “Glee” cast would be singing not one, but two Justin Bieber songs. The star (who admitted he had previously heard word about the possibility of this happening) also said he wasn’t sure if he would be one of the castmembers belting out the Biebs’ hits. “If I do [sing them], I hope they tell me soon which one!” he said. “It should be fun,” Criss said about the upcoming covers, adding, “I just hope they do the hairdo!” But Bieber’s famed coif isn’t the only thing he hopes to see in the second half of the season, which returns in February. While he and guest star Gwyneth Paltrow both starred in the episode “The Substitute,” his character, Blaine, had no onscreen time with her Holly Holliday. “I feel like I’m on my own spin-off: ‘Dalton,’ ” Criss joked, referring to Dalton Academy, where his character attends school. “So I never get to meet or spend time with a lot of the guest stars.” While it’s been reported that Paltrow’s substitute teacher will return to teach sex education at McKinley High School and will start up a relationship with Matthew Morrison’s Mr. Schuester, Criss had another story idea for the Oscar-winner. “Maybe she could be a sub at Dalton! That would be awesome,” he suggested before confessing, “I’m in love with Gwyneth. I would love to meet her.” We’ve got the Golden Globes covered!

Golden Globes Presenter Michael Douglas Gets Standing Ovation

‘There’s got to be an easier way,’ Best Actor nominee and cancer survivor jokes of warm reception at Sunday’s show. By Jocelyn Vena Michael Douglas receives a standing ovation at the 2011 Golden Globe Awards Photo: NBC/ HFPA Michael Douglas took the stage on Sunday night (January 16) to present the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture – Drama. Looking healthy and happy as wife Catherina Zeta-Jones looked on from the audience, the Golden Globe nominee made light of his recent battle with throat cancer. “There’s got to be an easier way to get a standing ovation,” Douglas joked about his warm reception. “Thank you all very much. I’m really very, very happy to be here tonight,” he added. Douglas went on to announce the winner in the category, David Fincher’s Facebook tale “The Social Network,” which took the prize over “Black Swan,” “The King’s Speech,” “Inception” and “The Fighter.” Earlier in the night, Douglas lost for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture to Christian Bale (“The Fighter”). He was nominated for reprising his role as Gordon Gekko in “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps.” But in spite of the loss, it was a triumphant return for the Hollywood A-lister who recently underwent cancer treatment and just this past week announced on the “Today” show that he’s now cancer-free . “I think the odds are with the tumor gone and what I know about this particular type of cancer, that I’ve got it beat,” Douglas told host Matt Lauer, about six months after he first publicly revealed he had the disease. “I have to check out on a monthly basis now to maintain. I guess there’s not a total euphoria. I’ll probably take a couple of months of getting checked out. But it’s been a wild six-month ride.” We’ve got the Golden Globes covered!

‘Glee’ Wins Big At Golden Globes

Musical show takes home Best Television Series – Comedy or Musical, plus two acting awards. By Aly Semigran he cast of “Glee” backstage at the 2011 Golden Globe Awards Photo: Steve Granitz/ WireImage For the second year in a row, “Glee” has had something to sing about at the Golden Globes. Fox’s pop-culture smash has emerged victorious yet again in the Best Television Series – Comedy or Musical category. In addition to besting the hit shows “Modern Family,” “Nurse Jackie,” “The Big C,” “The Big Bang Theory” and “30 Rock,” two of the show’s stars have taken home their first Golden Globe awards. While the show did not sweep — both Lea Michele and Matthew Morrison lost in their categories — it did win more awards than any other television show at the 68th annual Golden Globes. Stunned first-time nominee Chris Colfer kicked things off for “Glee” with his heartfelt speech, which he dedicated to his “fairy godfather Ryan Murphy” and to teens who, much like his character Kurt, are bullied. “The amazing kids that watch our show and that our show celebrates and are constantly told no [by] people and environments and bullies at school, that they can’t be who they are or can’t have what they want because of who they are,” he said, concluding his acceptance speech with, “Screw that, kids.” Next up was Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Series, Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television winner Jane Lynch. The actress, who has now won a Golden Globe, Emmy and Screen Actors Guild Award for her work on the show, had lost to “Big Love” actress Chlo
