"Gotham needs its true hero."

Kevin Conroy is Batman. He's never wore the cape and cowl onscreen but he's still the definitive version of the character, voicing him for 25 years in animation and video games. Below, he reads Batman's speech from the end of The Dark Knight.

Justice League

 I post this not because I'm excited but rather because I think it's interesting. Batman v Superman was awful. This... doesn't look a whole lot better. Those costumes? Ugh.  It'll make a lot of money though.

Thoughts on The Dark Knight Rises

Some non-spoilery thoughts on The Dark Knight Rises:

-The film is intense. It's a long film (164 min), but it doesn't let up the whole time. It's also pretty dark, fairly similar in tone to The Dark Knight.

-The music is probably more intense than the film itself. Hans Zimmer is the man.

-There were more nods to the comic than I would have expected. Also more twists than I would have expected.

-No post-credit sequence, if you're wondering.

-Bane works well as the villain, though he's not as good as the Joker.

-Anne Hathaway was very good as Catwoman.

-I thought Office Blake, played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, would feel like a tacked-on character, but he's important to the story and fits in seamlessly.

-Batman's new vehicle, the Bat, is awesome.

-I can't imagine this will make as much money as Avengers. It's a great movie, but it's pretty heavy. I will definitely see it again in IMAX though, and I may end up seeing it again before the weekend is over.

RE: Movie Trailers

This trailer?



Usually I feel like a trailer loses something after I've seen the movie a dozen times, but that's still pretty awesome. The teaser trailer isn't bad either, I think I prefer it to the one for The Dark Knight Rises, even though it doesn't have any scenes from the movie:
