Joss Whedon To Direct Batgirl Film!

DC fans have been upset by the recent releases from the DC Extended Universe of films. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad have left an unending foul taste in their mouths, and they're less than optimistic that the upcoming Wonder Woman film will redeem the shared universe. However, today we get a glimmer of hope within this grey and gloomy universe Zack Snyder has created. Joss Whedon, a Geek God for many, has signed a deal to write, produce and direct a live action Batgirl standalone film.

Review: Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

There isn't a movie out there that I've been waiting to see more than Batman v Superman. To have not just Batman and Superman on the screen at the same time but introducing Wonder Woman to the live action movie universe made my Geek spirit soar! Waiting nearly three years to see the movie that was announced at SDCC was like being a kid waiting for Christmas morning to open all those lovely looking wrapped presents. Now, it's finally here! Was the wait worth all the speculating and the premature internet anger? Let's find out! WARNING: Spoilers ahead!

Official Synopsis For 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice'

After months upon months of speculation, Warner Bros has finally released the official synopsis for the upcoming mega movie Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice:

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice IMAX Trailer Event!

Last week, before the trailer emerged online in a cellphone footage, pirated fashion, we were told by Zack Snyder himself that there would be a huge preview event to see the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer before it hit the internet in grand IMAX fashion.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Trailer!

Zack Snyder announced a few days ago that the trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice would be released in select IMAX theaters on Monday. In less than 24 hours someone leaked some horrible quality footage of that trailer. Many sites reported on, giving details of what was in the trailer. I'm not sure if this is why Snyder would then release the trailer early...but who cares! Here it is in full HD quality!

Top Ten Horror Films Countdown: #4 Dawn of the Dead (2004)

Dawn of the Dead starts off like most every other zombie movie: some sort of virus is turning people into flesh crazed maniacs and a small band of people must survive. Sounds like the average zombie movie, right? But Dawn of the Dead isn’t just a movie about zombies. It’s a movie about people and the choices that they make. Where so many other zombie movies go wrong by focusing solely on action with the zombies, Dawn of the Dead cares about the characters first and foremost. And because of this, Dawn of the Dead becomes a movie that will be remembered for a long, long time.

Cavill On Set

Henry Cavill Filming On Location For 'Batman v Superman'

Thanks again to @FlashCWFans for the following on set photos from the filming of 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.' The photos show Henry Cavill as Clark Kent filming near some building. Nothing groundbreaking, but just some candid on set shots. Enjoy! 

First Look At The New Batmobile

A few photos have surfaced of the Batmobile that we'll be seeing in 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.'

Batfleck On Location Photos

Thanks again to @FlashCWFans for sending us some photos from the 'Batman v Superman' filming on location in Detroit, Michigan. All of these photos are of Ben Affleck on location as Bruce Wayne. Not too much to get excited about but at least we get to see how he looks as the billionaire playboy.

Warner Bros Pictures Schedules DC Films Through 2020

Well, as impatient as we geeks are for this film, Warner Bros/DC has decided to not make us wait quite as long to see Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. They've moved the release date from May 6th, 2016 (in direct competition with Captain America 3) to March 25th, 2016. They've also announced their film release plans for the next several years. 

First Look at Wonder Woman!

Well...DC/Warner Bros started off Day 3 of SDCC with a bang. They brought out Zack Snyder and he debuted a teaser trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, showing a rainy Gotham rooftop and Batman standing atop wearing a very Frank Miller-y armor suit. He pulls a tarp off of a Bat Signal that illuminates in the sky revealing a very angry Superman with red eyes. We also got a great glimpse at Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman and I have to say...my doubts have receded a bit. Take a look.

New Color Photo of Batfleck!

Ok, so with Comic-Con comes news, surprises, reveals, and just awesomeness. Yesterday we got a new photo of Ben Affleck as Batman. Its in color this time, but he still has that "lost my puppy" sad appearance. 

'The Batman' Solo Film in 2019?

Since he was cast as Batman/Bruce Wayne for what was originally thought of as the sequel to Man of Steel (but has since become a stand alone film titled Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.) we've been curious as to when Ben Affleck would get his solo film as the Dark Knight. Rumor has it (latino-review.com) that we'll be seeing him return (after a stint in 'Justice League' in May of 2017) to the cape and cowl in 2019 to begin the new franchise of Bat films.

Jason Momoa as Aquaman

Jason Momoa Cast as Aquaman?

Over the last few months rumors have been swirling around the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice film, that Jason Momoa had been cast in an undisclosed role. He's flat out denied it repeatedly, even laughing at the notion that he'd be portraying Aquaman. But today the internet is saying that it's been "confirmed" that the Game of Thrones star has been cast as Aquaman for the 2016 comic book blockbuster.

First Look at Batman and Batmobile

DC fans rejoice, today is the day of the Bat! Zack Snyder ominously posted the back two wheels of the Batmobile yesterday on Twitter , and today has followed up with our first look at Ben Affleck as Batman! We couldn't be more excited about this big reveal , and hope more new photos will soon follow. Sound off and let us know what you think of the new Batsuit and Batmobile!
