The Nokia Lumia 900 The Dark Knight Rises Edition handset has made its way on the interwebs recently and it’s nothing short of a beauty, with a black polycarbonate unibody frame and a laser-etched Batman logo across the back. Moreover, the phone — which is usually limited to either a black or white background and a handful of color themes like Nokia blue, teal, lime, mango, and pink — will… → Read More

Some very important Batman news for your Wednesday afternoon. It seems that Anne Hathaway, who showed actual acting chops in Rachel Getting Married, will play Catwoman in the upcoming Batman movie, The Dark Knight Rises. Tom Hardy, one of the actors in director Kevin Nolan’s non-Batman movie, Inception, will also be in the movie, playing the role of Bane. And here I thought Bane was some jack-up… → Read More
Is 3D already in trouble? Quite possibly, and there’s a few data points to back up that claim. As you know, Christopher Nolan has announced a few things pertaining to the next Batman movie, namely its name (the Dark Knight Rises), that The Riddler won’t be in it (much to fans’ chagrin), and that it won’t be filmed in 3D. I’m pretty sure the previous Batman movie, the… → Read More

Comic-con starts today (I’ll be there tomorrow~!), so that means we’ll be seeing a bunch of comic book-related movie news coming at us in the next few hours.

Incidentally, Cros was probably my favorite… → Read More
This week’s episode of Speaking Of… is with the originator of the modern Batman movies and creator of the Batman franchise, Michael Uslan.
Michael Uslan’s story is the typical story of success. From the outside, it seems like an obvious win, but from the inside there was a long and painful struggle to get to the other side. It took Michael 10 years of pitching a dark and serious Batman in order… → Read More
Some Batman news, if only because Batman is the best comic book superhero of all time. I will debate this all day if need be, Lord knows I have nothing else going on in my life. The news this morning is that the next Batman movie, tentatively called Batman 3 (but you know the final name will be something like Batman: Vengeance), will feature The Riddler as the main villain. → Read More

Yes, there will be another Christopher Nolan-directed Batman movie. This should be good news since the first two movies were good, certainly watchable. But what about this scary prediction: the movie will be garbage, and there’s ample evidence to support this. → Read More

As a Batman super fan I’ve been keeping a watchful eye on the development of Batman: Arkham Asylum since it first leaked out last July. I like the direction that Batman has taken across his various media incarnations as of late. He’s a dark character with a dark past and the villains around him should be just as, if not, darker.
Late last night, GameTrailer got the scoop on the latest… → Read More

About three weeks ago, Gamestop detailed the contents of the Collector’s Edition Batman: Arkham Asylum, but it was quickly pulled down and the mention of a Batarang was forever seared into my memory. Well, today, Gamestop detailed the game again and the Batarang remains. I know $100 is a lot to ask for a game, but it’s a foot long Batarang with a Waynetech Batarang Storage Box! Want.

Continuing with the Batman-related good news, it looks like the upcoming game Batman: Arkham Asylum will actually be, dare I say, good. That a game based on a license doesn’t lick the bottom of the bucket of sucktitide (to paraphrase Christian from the WWE circa 2001) is shocking in and of itself, but that, according to Edge, it even has a chance of becoming an “excellent one.” Surely… → Read More
