The Dark Knight Rises Hits Blu-ray and Digital Download on December 3 | Superhero Hype

It would seem a little odd for a trailer for The Dark Knight Rises to pop up on YouTube two months after its release, right? Well, it would be if the video's description wasn't bearing a new message. The description confirms that the film will be available on Blu-ray Combo Pack and Digital Download on December 3. Though the cover for the home video release or any special features have yet to be revealed, keep an eye here for any more updates about the film. You can take a look at the 'new' trailer below.

Batman's GUN


Americans used to hold a different set of beliefs about guns. So did Batman, who started out with a gun—until he got rid of it.

No Batman Re-Boot !?

 http://whatculture.com/film/10-reasons-we-dont-want-batman-reboot-after-the-dark-knight-rises-2.php
It’d be nice if all those unsubstantiated internet rumours of yesteryear – Phillip Seymour Hoffman as Penguin, Leonardo DiCaprio/Guy Pearce/Neil Patrick Harris (above) as Riddler – were still possible within this Batman world. It’s not that it’d be amazing to see those characters in themselves, but rather it’d be interesting to see how those characters are presented in Christopher Nolan’s fantasy-light version of the world.
Sub-topics include;
  1. We know the origin 
  2. We want more villians
  3. We want ...sigh....Robin
  4. Comic Books Transcend authors
  5. The "Nolanverse" is TOO good
  6. It was just getting warmed up!
  7. the supporting cast
  8. Harvey Dent
  9. Evolution of catwoman
  10. Bruce Wayne MUST survive

Iron Batman


Wayne of Gotham by Tracy Hickman



Interspersed with familiar Batman villains such as the Joker and Harley Quinn, Wayne of Gotham puts aside the action-packed panels of the comics and focuses on the Dark Knight as a dark detective. He's on the case when an evil force has gotten into people's minds, making them think and do things out of the ordinary. Wayne of Gotham provides a Bat-fix for fans who were left hungry for more after The Dark Knight Rises movie.

Why Batman?

http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/beyond-heroes-and-villains/201208/dark-and-stormy-knight-why-batman

Psychiatrists...and psychologists...plus others interviewed in the History Channel documentary Batman Unmasked: The Psychology of the Dark Knight analyze Batman more than any other superhero — the character himself, that is. Looking at Superman psychologically means looking at modern mythology. He's the modern demigod myth. While there's something mythic about Batman too, to be sure, he's more akin to the mortal legends like Robin Hood and pulp heroes like Zorro and the Shadow, extraordinary men but men nonetheless.
