Warner Bros. to re-release The Dark Knight

September 11, 2008

As reported by The Hollywood Reporter today, Warner Brothers plan to re-release Batman-The Dark Knight in January just before the voting for the Academy Awards starts.

“It’s just a matter of bringing it back as a reminder for people,” a source told the trade.

In my opinion, with the amount of money and hype this film has made i don’t think anyone will EVER need to be reminded again about how awesome The Dark Knight was. But maybe this is their way of securing a couple Oscar’s. If it is then fair game but i really don’t think they need to do it. The Blu-Ray/DVD is planned to be released in December.


Will Batman 3 happen?

September 9, 2008

Will it happen? Should it happen? Can they top The Dark Knight? I think there’s no harm in giving it a try and Michael Caine thinks the same way. In a recent interview he asked how Heath Ledger can be topped and the reply was: ‘I’ll tell you how you top Heath — Johnny Depp as The Riddler and Philip Seymour Hoffman as The Penguin.’

This came from a Warner Brothers Executive so it has to mean something.  What do i think of all this? Johnny Deep as Ridder and Philip Seymour Hoffman as penguin…get ready for a better Batman film! I love the idea of A List celebrities doing all the superhero films now, it gives a lot of credit to the comic world and i personally think they make the best films…thats my opinion though, don’t question it.
