No plans for Batman 3......yet....

I took this off www.postchronicle.com

THE DARK KNIGHT screenwriter DAVID GOYER is baffled by reports he's working on a second sequel to 2005's BATMAN BEGINS - because he hasn't even discussed the possibility with director CHRISTOPHER NOLAN.

Goyer was rumoured to have reteamed with Nolan to pen a script for another installment of the superhero franchise following the huge box office success of this summer's (08) The Dark Knight.
The film has grossed $988 million (GBP534 million) worldwide since its July (08) release.

But Goyer insists there are no plans for another Batman movie just yet, telling MTV, "It's all B.S. (bulls**t). All of it." He adds, "Chris and I haven't even talked about it. He quite understandably is taking a long, long vacation and wants to purge himself.

"We have mused here and there (but) I mean Chris is pretty much a one-movie-at-a-time kind of guy. I wish I could tell you more. There really isn’t anything to tell."

The Booze Brother??


Like any good foodie, I love wine. So I thought I would be adventurous and try a bottle of Dan Aykroyd Cabernet Merlot. To my surprise it's very good. Full bodied and great with the pizza a choose to enjoy it with. The label also suggests serving it with grilled meats, hearty pasta or chocolate.
I recommend it!!!
Give it a try. It has a great finish.

Daredevil reboot?


Well I guess you could see it coming.
Marvel has re-done The Hulk and Punisher franchises, why not Daredevil!
It gives me a warm feeling inside when movie execs realise that the movies they produced suck!
Ah, the circle of life.

The Boy Wonder!!!...I wonder what they were thinking?

So you may have heard about the CW's plan for a new series called "The Graysons". The producers of "Smallville" have come up with a plan to do a series about Dick Grayson before he became Robin, Batman's faithful ward. But my question is....who cares about him before he was Robin? I mean really! We all wanted to see Bruce Waynes life prior to him dawning the cape and cowl, but really.....Dick Grayson??? Apart from the 48 hours prior to his parents death, I can't see what else the public would be interested in.
But who am I to say.......
Check here for more details.
