Superheroines, where art thou?

The American Prospect explains why, despite record box office hits and women going to see superhero films in droves, there's no plans to make a superheroine movie. Josh Whedon came close, but something happened with Warner Brothers and his Wonder Woman project was shuttered.

"Progress is slow and often nonexistent," Whedon said. "There's plenty of cool comics with female characters. ... But all it takes is one Catwoman to set the cause back a decade."
