Batman Movie Casts Kids, Succeeds in Being Awesome - Video

Posted by Chris Jensen | Jun. 09, 2008 07:52AM PST | 405 views | 0 comments

FILED UNDER: News, Videos. Movies.

Joe Valenti, aspiring filmmaker, recently directed a short movie called The Amazing Adventures of Little Batman, starring a cast of 5-year-olds in all of the major roles. It's a nice piece of quality work with above average production values, though I have to wonder, how much longer will it be before DC Comics has a fit and demands this be removed from the net?

If you've followed my posting at all, you've figured out by now that I'm a big fan of Batman. The Dark Knight is easily my most anticipated movie of the year, and I'm trying to spread my love for all things Batman. As a challenge to myself and a service to you all, I set out to compile a list of the best Batman stories of all time, across all media. That includes movies, television, and of course, comics. I don't want to spoil the list, but suffice to say my choices will likely ruffle a few feathers, especially for some of the older Batman fans out there.

Collectible Bust of Ledger's Joker is Impressive

Posted by Chris Jensen | May. 13, 2008 06:04AM PST | 928 views | 0 comments

FILED UNDER: News. Toys.

With action figures of Heath Ledger's Joker flying off retail shelves and winding up on eBay, all things Batman are incredibly hot at the moment. Why not add some fuel to the fire by creating a rather impressive 1/4th scale bust of the Joker? Hot Toys has done just that and the result is rather impressive, sporting some killer detail.

The Dark Knight TV Spots Debut

We're still two months away from The Dark Knight's theatrical appearance, but that hasn't stopped WB from moving the media blitz from theaters to the small screen. Two television ads have arrived for the new Bat-flick, which apparently premiered during last night's Survivor finale. There's not a whole lot of new footage in either of these pieces, but one line in particular really stood out for me. It's a direct lift from the Batman comic The Long Halloween and has me absolutely pumped for the scene. See if you can spot it.

 

Keep checking back with InfoAddict, as I'll be posting a top 25 list of the greatest Batman stories of all time very soon.

Finally! A New Trailer for The Dark Knight!

Posted by Matt Butrovich | May. 05, 2008 10:42AM PST | 520 views | 1 comment

FILED UNDER: Videos, News. Movies.

There's a good chance you saw it attached to Iron Man over the weekend, but in case you missed out, the latest trailer for The Dark Knight is out and it looks spectacular. HD versions are available at one of the movie's viral sites, Why So Serious, but if you need a YouTube version it's available there as well.

YouTube should be a last resort however, as sharp-eyed viewers of the HD version can spot two more villains tucked away in the trailer. I won't say who they are though - you'll have to find them on your own. The Dark Knight opens on July 18, but if you're looking to get ready for it now, be sure to read my piece on Priming for The Dark Knight.

Trailer for the Other New Batman Movie: Gotham Knight

Posted by Matt Butrovich | Apr. 21, 2008 11:23AM PST | 456 views | 0 comments

FILED UNDER: Videos. Movies, Comics.

You might not have realized it, but there is another Batman film coming out this year. Though it's strictly a straight-to-DVD release, Batman: Gotham Knight is shaping up to be a great buy, if the latest trailer is any indication. The idea behind Gotham Knight is similar to that of another Warner Bros. release, The Animatrix. The film is made up of six unique stories, all created by different directors and animated in an anime style. American viewers who just tuned out at the word 'anime' shouldn't bail just yet, as the film once again brings together producers Bruce Timm and Alan Burnett, both being principles for Batman: The Animated Series and Batman Beyond. Of course, the most exciting return is Kevin Conroy's, who will forever be the voice of Batman in my mind. Enjoy the trailer, and after the jump a video documentary on the creation of the film.

Batman: Gotham Knight will be released on DVD and Blu-Ray on July 8, 2008.

A couple of new images from The Dark Knight have been circulating across the web in the last day or so, and we're happy to bring them to you in all of their spoiler-y goodness. If you're intent on remaining sheltered from all thing TDK and want to enjoy the film with a clean slate, I must implore you not to hit the jump. For those that are dying for every scrap of information that they can find on the next Batman film, these shots are fantastic. Every shot of Heath Ledger's Joker that leaks just gets me more pumped to see the movie. The Dark Knight is set to open in theaters on July 18.

Want Your Own Personal Batmobile? Build One

Posted by Phillip Radke | Mar. 18, 2008 03:10PM PST | 401 views | 0 comments

Want to fulfill all you boyhood fantasies of racing around like Batman? Well, if you've got the cash then you're in luck. There is a site that will help hook you up with your very own kit.

Sadly this isn't a way to buy a fully built batmobile, as you're gonna have to provide your own chassis, engine, and tranny. But who can argue with the results? Cruising around the city Michael Keaton style is just too tempting to pass up.

More promising, is the site's inclusion of a full set of blueprints for the winged stretch vehicle. I'm scraping the dimes together right now so I can roll up to the Dark Knight premiere in style.

As a bonus treat I've put up a video after the break of the Batmobile in action, as if you needed any more convincing.

The Dark Knight to Remain Unchanged

Posted by Daniel Espinoza | Mar. 14, 2008 03:32PM PST | 365 views | 0 comments

FILED UNDER: News. Movies, People.

Since Heath Ledger's death of an accidental overdose in January, critics and fans have speculated that the studio and filmmakers might alter the film or change marketing strategies from focusing on Ledger's role as the infamous Joker. Despite his tragic death, marketing has gone on as originally planned and the Joker will be portrayed as intended.

"I think he'd be very pleased to see we're just moving ahead as is," Nolan said. "If you try to honor somebody, you honor them by respecting their work and putting it out there for as many people to see. He was immensely proud of the work he did on the film. I feel a great burden to present that in an undistorted form."

Priming for The Dark Knight

Posted by Matt Butrovich | Mar. 12, 2008 03:04PM PST | 1509 views | 0 comments

FILED UNDER: Features. Comics, Books, Movies.

If you're anything like me, you can't wait for The Dark Knight to hit theaters this summer. Starring the late Heath Ledger as the Joker, the sequel to 2005's Batman Begins will retell Batman's first encounter with his most recognized villain, as well as one of his most tragic. Like its predecessor, The Dark Knight will likely draw much of its material from Batman's comic roots while putting a slight twist on the canon. Batman Begins relied heavily on characters and situations created by Frank Miller in the classic Batman: Year One, which was written in 1987 as a more modern take on the Bat's comic origins - just like Begins reboots the film version of the Caped Crusader by tossing Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher's movies out the window. So if you want to get a head start on The Dark Knight and get some hints as to where the story may be heading, it would make sense to scour Batman's print history where the film's writers likely got their material. But where to start?
