693 on 10 Things Revealed in the 'Suicide Squad' TrailerWhen director David Ayer took the stage at Comic-Con International in San Diego this year, we knew we were going to get something special from the Suicide Squad movie, but we didn't know how special it was going to be! He presented a full length trailer for the movie, which is still filming in Toronto.…
When the second Batman v Superman trailer was released in Hall H for Comic-Con attendees, the reaction was immediate and ecstatic. It had everything we wanted to see, but didn't in the first trailer (Wonder Woman fighting! Lex Luthor scheming! Superman and Batman actually fighting!) and more. After going through the Batman v Superman Comic-Con trailer frame…
With Gotham having a strong premiere earlier this week and TNT developing a (Teen) Titans series which will see Nightwing take the lead, it's a good time to be a DC Comics fan, and more specifically a Batman one. Elsewhere, we have Arrow, Constantine and The Flash to enjoy, with Supergirl coming to television at…
It's that time again! The 2014 San Diego Comic-Con is just a couple of weeks away, and as those lucky enough to be heading to the annual event begin packing their sleeping bags to ensure that they're first in line for a preview of some of the most anticipated movies from the next few years,…
Last year, Ben Affleck said that the goal was to take Batman and, "redefine him in a way that doesn’t compete with Bale and Christopher Nolan’s Batman." That makes sense, especially as The Dark Knight Trilogy is such a beloved trilogy which saw Christian Bale deliver one of the greatest takes on the Caped Crusader…
We already know about a number of iconic Batman villains who will be making an appearance in at least in the pilot episode of Gotham, but there are still plenty of other members of the Caped Crusader's rogues gallery - along with several other supporting characters from the comic books - who could be introduced in…
With Justice League officially on the horizon, we thought that now would be a good time to take a look at 10 things we want to see in the movie which will be helmed by Man of Steel and Batman Vs. Superman director Zack Snyder. With a rumored release date of 2017 (possibly 2018), the…
Christopher Nolan’s Batman movies were undoubtedly superb, but their realistic setting meant the filmmaker was very much restricted when it came to how many of the gadgets from the pages of the comic books could be brought to the big screen. The director’s Dark Knight Trilogy certainly had fun with The Tumbler, Batpod and flying…
"You've changed things... Forever." I have to admit that I've always had a sweet spot for the Joker. Perhaps it's because of Jack Nicholson's chilling portrayal of the Clown Prince of Crime in 1989's Batman. At six years old, in a run-down theater on Wildwood's World Famous Boardwalk, I sat in awe as I watched…
Another Batman vs. Superman casting announcement, another outcry from comic book fans around the web. But are they being unfairly criticized for not agreeing with Gal Gadot's casting as Wonder Woman? I keep seeing people berating "fanboys" for not being happy with Gal Gadot's casting based on her appearance. I don't think that there's anything…
In 1997, Batman & Robin did something horrible. No, we’re not talking about all those dreadful puns…we’re talking about the fact that it killed a franchise. After the release of that movie, it would be another eight years until the Caped Crusader finally returned to the big screen. As difficult as that near decade long…
To say fans have been unhappy with the news that Ben Affleck will play Batman in Batman vs. Superman would be an understatement. The reaction is unlike anything I've ever seen in the three years I've been running Batman News. Hundreds of online petitions have gathered tens of thousands of signatures. The most embarrassing act…
It's rare you'll find us complaining about more Batman news. Surprisingly. Whether it's in the comics, on the TV or the big screen, generally speaking, a new take on The Dark Knight will always get a little twitch of excitement from this corner of the net (even if we do like to hold fire for…
The Batman property has been pulled in so many creative directions over the years that it shouldn't be a surprise The Caped Crusader has had to endure his bizarre share of indignities throughout his cinematic tenure. From the 1966 Adam West-starring Batman movie right through to last year's The Dark Knight Rises, the Batman movies…
There's something missing in the world of Batman fandom. We have the films (both superlative and some that were awful,) several awesome tv shows, decades of great comic books, spin-offs and a million different media footprints shaped by Batman's armour-plated size 7.5s. More of each will come; truckloads of merch will land on shelves and…
Like any beloved comic book property, Batman has been crow-barred open and interpreted by a large number of writers, artists, actors and filmmakers; from the firm camp of Adam West’s TV series, to the German Expressionist undertones of…
Christopher Nolan frequently said we would never see Robin in his Batman trilogy, so it came as a huge surprise to everyone when the final few minutes of The Dark Knight Rises introduced us to the visionary director's take on the iconic DC character. Of course, John Blake was arguably a mash-up of all the…
Today is the anniversary of my first ever review for Batman-News.com and I wanted to take this time to thank you all for reading my thoughts on these fine comics. This all started when I was looking for comic reviews myself and found that many of the articles weren't written by a consistent author month…
First of all, give yourself a pat on the back for getting your Batman-fix at a site that doesn't post spoilers. Good job! Now you just have to keep it up until July 20th. With press screenings, premiers, and more press screenings happening from here on out more and more people are learning the ending…
The following is an opinion piece written by Matt Smith, a friend of Batman-News.com. Views expressed here are his own. The Dark Knight Rises being a PG-13 movie should be a surprise to no one who is an aficionado of superhero movies. For those who don’t know, the film is officially rated PG-13 for “intense…
