Rumor: ‘Batman’ solo movie to co-star Will Smith’s Deadshot
Will Smith’s Deadshot is premiering next year in DC’s Suicide Squad, and it is looking like we may know where he will turn up next. In…Ben Affleck’s Batman flick? Admittedly, I don’t know Deadshot’s story very well. So maybe this makes sense in the grand scheme of the Bat-Mythos. But to an uneducated slob like me, it seems like “Let’s shove Character X into Character’s Y movie, because: star power!” Which, in the name of fairness, I will admit seems to be happening in the third Thor movie too.
Telltale Games is working on a Batman game
Telltale Games continues on its quest to adapt every single hot property into one of their patented point-and-click adventure games. The latest target of this quest? Bat-Man.
Paul Dini and Eduardo Risso teaming for ‘Dark Night: A True Batman Story’, an original graphic novel
Now here is a legit meeting of the artistic minds. Paul Dini and Eduardo Risso are bringing their talents together for what will hopefully produce glorious synergy. It has been announced that the duo are putting out an original Batman graphic novel, inspired by actual events in Dini’s life.
WB Games Montreal working on two new DC Comics games
I didn’t fuck with Batman: Arkham Origins, because I heard it wasn’t that special. Was this due to its developer? I sort of hope not, since said development team is now in charge of two games based on DC comics.
‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’ Trailer #3: Superman is a Dick
Yeah. I don’t know. Zack Snyder really doesn’t fucking get Superman (or Batman, or Watchmen, or strong female characters). And despite Snyder always proving this, I’m always annoyed. Like, what the fuck is this clip? Whatever. Fuck.
Rumor: ‘Batman’ solo movie to feature The Red Hood, Joker, based off “A Death In The Family”
The Batman solo flick is the one movie I’m really, really, really sweating in the DCU. Primarily because I think Ben Affleck is a talented director (if he ends up directing the movie, which he keeps wavering on, but I have faith), and the movie, won’t, you know, involve Zack Snyder. Details are beginning to emerge (or purportedly emerge, I guess) about the movie, and whelp. It seems interesting.
‘Batman: Arkham Knight’ has already sold 5 million futzing copies
…and this, my friends, is why I reject any ludicrous notion that Warner Bros. is done with Batman video games despite Arkham Knight being the “conclusion” to the Arkham series.
Mark Hamill reprising his role as The Joker in ‘Batman: The Killing Joke’ animated adaptation
Mark Hamill is The Joker is Mark Hamill. So it has been, so it shall be.
