Bane Has Never Been More Fun
Just a bit of silliness to start your Saturday. I loved Bane in The Dark Knight Rises. That voice is just so much fun. This video was brought to us by the Auralnauts.
The Dark Knight Rises Honest Movie Trailer
Anybody else getting The Dark Knight Rises on DVD today? I know I am! But try to watch it while keeping some of this video in mind:
The movie does kind of fall apart when you think about it. I mean, why did they wait 3 months to blow up the bomb if they were always planning to blow it up in the first place? And what was the big deal about insisting that a citizen of Gotham held the trigger if they always planned to blow it up? Still, the movie did have Robin, so I’m still a very happy camper. Check out my review, if you’re interested.
The Great Geek Dark Knight Rises Project
All hail Ben “kinjamin” Deguzman as the greatest Batman dream artist ever!
According to his Deviantart page, it sounds like kinjamin is just having his own bit of fun designing characters and plots to follow up on Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy. John Blake as Batman, of course, but he’s got a ton more. I’ve included them after the jump, including a take on Robin and an ingenious take on Huntress that I can’t believe never occurred to me. Kinjamin makes sure all of his ideas fit with established movie continuity, and it’s just very cool. I love that kind of fan fiction creativity. And the fact that he took it a million steps further with this awesome art is just beyond brilliant.
Join me after the jump for Robin, Huntress, Harley Quinn, Batgirl and a new Two-Face. He’s also promised more images to come someday!
Could Joseph Gordon-Levitt Play Batman in the Justice League Movie?
UPDATE: This rumor has been denied by Gordon-Levitt’s people. Darn you, Hollywood agents, couldn’t you just let us believe a little bit longer? Even still, the fact that this would be an awesome casting choice is still cool.
The rumor around today is that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is in talks to play Batman in the upcoming Justice League movie. The news is courtesy of Hit Flix, and really is just an unsubstantiated rumor at this point. No official word from either Gordon-Levitt or Warner Bros. And I usually hate publishing this kind of Hollywood casting rumor, but it’s a slow news day, and I think this would be awesome.
Will it happen? Maybe, maybe not. But then I’m still not convinced that a Justice League movie will be released in 2015.
I’m not going to play it safe with The Dark Knight Rises. There will be SPOILERS in this article, but I’m just going to assume that anybody who reads this geektacular blog has probably seen The Dark Knight Rises. But if, for some reason, you’re still waiting for the DVD release next week, then turn away now!
How Dark Knight Rises Should Have Ended
This greatness of ‘How It Should Have Ended…’ is back, baby!
Love the animation, love…most of the jokes. These people continue to produce some of the best stuff on the Internet. But if I’m being completely honest, I think they’ve lost touch with their original mantra. These videos usually now just make fun of various parts of the movie rather than focusing on creating an ‘alternate’ ending to show how a movie really should have ended.
And they are obsessed with their Superman and Batman sitting in a cafe gag! It’s like they spend more time coming up with jokes for those scenes than on actually riffing the movie. If you watch that video, when they finally get to the end of Dark Knight Rises and show what should have happened when Alfred was looking on Bruce and Selina…they just fall back on their Superman character rather than telling us how the movie really should have ended
Oh well, that’s just my pathetic two cents. Still a great web series.
