‘Batman: The Killing Joke’ Animated Movie Gets Official R Rating


 The original comic book made waves as not only becoming the only real
definitive telling of the villain’s origin story, but also for its dark
imagery and deep, psychological torture of Detective Jim Gordon and the
story’s brutal treatment of his daughter, Barbara, at the hands of the
Clown Prince of Crime. And why? Just to prove that all it takes is one bad day for everyone to go a little mad inside.



 “From the start of production, we encouraged producer Bruce Timm and
our team at Warner Bros. Animation to remain faithful to the original
story — regardless of the eventual MPAA rating, The Killing Joke is
revered by the fans, particularly for its blunt, often-shocking adult
themes and situations. We felt it was our responsibility to present our
core audience — the comics-loving community — with an animated film that
authentically represented the tale they know all too well.”

Brit publisher Eaglemoss has carved out a cool niche for itself over the last several years in the U.S., a sort-of affordable Danbury Mint for comics and sci-fi collectors: superhero chess pieces, Star Trek starships, Marvel and DC figurines.
Their best line , unsurprisingly — is Batman Automobilia, a series of small, high-quality models, featuring a very broad variety of Bat-vehicles going all the way back to the original red roadster.
Check out the link above for the complete article and many more pics of some of these GREAT collectables.

Hardest Part of Batman is Bruce Wayne

Kevin Smith, that jolly trenchcoat wearing sidekick to Jay, spoke with Variety recently while promoting his recent film Yoga Hosers. Kevin Smith is a hardcore Batman fan to say the least; he has made several references to the characters within his movie and even assaulted a mall while dressed as the Dark Knight. To take it one step further he even named his daughter Harley Quinn! Pretty hardcore, eh? So it is from that front that Kevin speaks about the character of the Caped Crusader. “The hardest thing to nail about Batman is Bruce Wayne, because that’s where you’ve got no mask and you’ve got to be a human being. But that dude is Bruce Wayne, so he’s born to play that role.” Who was he referring to? The Ben Affleck of course! Can I just introduce him with a ‘The’? Sure, why not!

HOLY LEGO BATCAVE!

The Dark Knight in brick form. Even cooler than all of the detail he put in the Batcave, though, is the fact that it's actually built below another build of Wayne Manor. Gotta love the geographical accuracy on that. Check out some photos below, and see them all at Glasure's Flickr page.
