Frank Miller, Klaus Janson and Lynn Varley helped change the comic book landscape when the first issue of their four-issue Batman reinvention The Dark Knight Returns was released in 1986. Those four issues have influenced film and television as well as comics; Christopher Nolan’s three Batman films are shaped to a great degree by the grim, violent vision of Batman put forth by Miller & Co.
The Dark Knight Returns has never been directly adapted to film or television, however, until now. Warner Bros. animation label DC Comics Premiere Movies is creating a two-part adaptation of the four-issue series. The good part is: Peter Weller (RoboCop) has been hired to voice Bruce Wayne and Batman. Read More »

Kick-Ass 2 director Jeff Wadlow had really better hope those talks with star Chloë Grace Moretz go well. In volume 2 of the comic book series by Mark Millar that inspired the movie, Moretz’s Hit-Girl character is somewhat sidelined because (this is a possible spoiler) she ultimately gives up her superhero persona. But Wadlow said over the weekend that he planned to make Hit-Girl, aka Mindy Macready, “a major, major part of the film,” and now we know exactly how major that is.
According to Millar, Kick-Ass 2 will open with 30 minutes centered on the Hit-Girl character before shifting focus back to the titular Kick-Ass (Aaron Johnson). Read his comments after the jump.

Monday’s reveal of what’s likely the final theatrical poster for The Dark Knight Rises was met with considerable venom. “This was done in 20 seconds” said Zach H in our comments. “This will be the next instagram feature. Instant-movie-posters,” wrote ThatEuropeanGuy and Bryan C simply said “How terribly uninspired.” The poster even inspired a truly hilarious GIF showing how the poster combines elements from The Dark Knight Rises teaser poster and The Dark Knight theatrical poster.
Hopefully everyone will be slightly more satisfied with these new character poster just released by Warner Bros. There are two different styles. One is simple, yet striking. The other is a little more muted and evocative. Will fans like these? Comment below to find out. Read More »
