Cosplay of the Day: Riddler and Two-Face are Up to No Good, Obviously

Britt Hayes — Sat, 27 Apr 2013 15:00:50 +0000

What’s more troublesome than one Batman villain? Two Batman villains, of course. It’s always more dangerous when the Dark Knight’s foes combine forces, but the cosplay is always so much cooler. Lhars Ebersold and her friend Taffeta Darling cosplayed as the Riddler and Two-Face, respectively, for a comic convention last year. Yep, that’s right, you’re looking [...]

On April 22, it was reported that Michael “I Make Things Go Boom” Bay, apologized to a reporter from The Miami Herald for the third act of his 1998 smash, ‘Armageddon.’ He said: I will apologize for Armageddon, because we had to do the whole movie in 16 weeks. It was a massive undertaking. That [...]

Batman Is Now Training Soldiers in Afghanistan

Kyle Dowling — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 11:00:45 +0000

It’s good to see these soldiers still have their sense of humor in a place where anything can happen. Then again, should something go down, America’s own Caped Crusader has their backs. There’s been a recent series of Army safety PSA’s popping up online from quite an unexpected place. A US soldier stationed in Bagram [...]

Nick Romano — Fri, 25 Jan 2013 03:00:26 +0000

Justice League, assemble! Well, it has... allegedly. While a report came out not too long ago revealing which comic book heroes would be joining the team for its big-screen debut, a new more up-to-date one has come out naming the key players who will go up against 'The Avengers 2' for box office dominance. And one new name has been added into the mix, as well!

Mike Sampson — Wed, 02 Jan 2013 16:25:23 +0000

While 2013 has just begun, you'll forgive us if we briefly look into 2015 for one of the most anticipated movies in recent history: 'Justice League.' The Warner Bros. film would bring together their own superhero team to answer 'The Avengers' but exactly what superheroes will be joining the 'Justice League' team?

Batman vs. Spider-Man: Which Superhero Has the Best Games?

Alex Langley — Fri, 28 Dec 2012 00:17:58 +0000

Batman and Spider-Man are two of the most recognizable faces in popular culture. They're both multi-billion dollar franchises, with scores of comic books, movies, and cartoons all detailing their adventures in superheroing. When it comes to video games, though, each hero has had a storied past. Some of their games have been exceptional, others were so monstrous they were an affront to all things holy. Let's take a look through some of the highs and lows of these heroes' gaming histories, and see which of them swings ahead.

Batman Would Be A Crippled Wreck, According To Science

Dan Seitz — Sun, 09 Dec 2012 22:00:59 +0000

Batman is a master warrior and all around tough guy, so he’s easily able to handle the stress of his lifestyle, right? Wrong, according to science. E. Paul Zehr, a kinesiologist and author of popular science books Becoming Batman and Becoming Iron Man, lays out exactly what would happen to Bruce Wayne, even if he [...]

5 Actors Who Could Play Batman in the Reboot

Amanda Ferris — Wed, 24 Oct 2012 21:29:38 +0000

Even though Christian Bale nailed the role of Bruce Wayne and Batman in Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy, let's face it: Warner Brothers is going to reboot the character and it will probably happen sooner rather than later. Since Christian Bale will not star in any Batman movie not directed by Christopher Nolan, here are five potential actors who could believably pull off being both the playboy Bruce Wayne and The Dark Knight.

If you’ve ever wanted to own a custom-made Batcave, check out this gorgeous LEGO replica that was unveiled at the Emerald City Comic-Con earlier this year and drool in envy.

'Justice League' Casting: Does Armie Hammer Still Have a Shot at Batman?

Nick Romano — Tue, 09 Oct 2012 13:19:44 +0000

The planned 'Justice League' movie has been in a state of constant fluctuation on both the casting and director fronts. It felt like as soon as George Miller got the job helming the project, he just as quickly lost it shortly after news of his lead actor picks came out. While Warner Bros. is still shopping around for the right person to lead the 'Justice League' team, they might at least have gotten one step closer to deciding who should follow in Christian Bale's footsteps as Batman.

Check Out Tom Hardy's Sunburn After Filming The Dark Knight Rises

Mick Nasty — Sat, 21 Jul 2012 16:46:16 +0000

If you were to ask Tom Hardy what the most difficult part of playing Bane in the epic conclusion to the Batman trilogy, I’m sure he would say this.I think this beats the worst farmers tan you can get. Saw the movie by the way and all I have to say is wow. It will [...]

Even though The Amazing Spider-Man was #1 at the box office this weekend, it will quickly (July 20) take a back seat to the summer's biggest blockbuster The Dark Knight Rises. And in case you haven't had enough yet, now you can see some behind the scenes footage from the final film in the trilogy.

Batman's Secret Identity Not Much Of A Secret [Video]

Bobby G. — Wed, 13 Jun 2012 21:56:14 +0000

The whole concept of a “secret identity”has always been a bit ridiculous…right? Superman’s may be the worst. Really, you just put on some glasses and took the curl out of your hair and all of the sudden you look like a totally different person? Really? I’ll give Batman some credit though. His secret identity is, [...]

Highly Anticipated 'The Dark Knight Rises' Trailer is Here!

Bobby G. — Tue, 01 May 2012 15:29:26 +0000

I dare you to name a movie this summer that is more anticipated, or expected to make more money than The Dark Knight Rises. This weekend’s The Avengers may be the closest thing…but I’m afraid the final film in Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy is going to dominate the box office for a long time. A [...]

First photos surface of Anne Hathaway as 'Catwoman'

slick — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 19:05:49 +0000

I am a little partial to the Michelle Pheifer version and obviously Halle Berry's take on it (albeit from an atrocious movie) but Anne Hathaway is doing it justice as well.

At least I assume she is...

'The Dark Knight Rises' footage at Heinz Field

slick — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 17:48:58 +0000

Just to be nice (and not be all spoilerish) I will give you the setup to the scene after the jump Alright, now then…evidently there is a scene in the new ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ that involves a Gotham Rogues football game. At some point, there is a big ‘splosion and stuff and the crowd [...]

The Dark Knight Rises…The Taiwanese Edition

T-Rav — Thu, 28 Jul 2011 04:12:53 +0000

When I went to see Captain America this past weekend, I also caught the trailer for the final installment of the Christopher Nolan directed Batman series. There was also a terrible preview for some movie called War Horse, that made me laugh out loud in the theater. But I'm not here to talk about that piece of trash.

Bootleg trailer for the 'Dark Knight Rises'

slick — Thu, 14 Jul 2011 11:52:06 +0000

A teaser for Christopher Nolan’s Batman threequel ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ is expected to play before ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2′ on Friday, but that hasn’t stopped the internet from leaking it a few days early. The footage below is admittedly poor quality, so it’s hard to pinpoint what exactly is going [...]

Why Batman is Secretly Terrible for Gotham

Bobby G. — Wed, 06 Jul 2011 17:04:24 +0000

Let's face it, Batman has changed a lot since the 1960s. Bruce Wayne has become darker and the costumes are becoming disturbingly more detailed (but it's still way better than spandex.) And certain questions have begun to arise: If Batman is so good, why do criminals keep escaping? How is Batman paying for all of his gadgets? How good of a businessman is Bruce Wayne, REALLY? One thing is for sure: he is one hell of a philanthropist.
