The Dark Knight returns in first full trailer for Beware the Batman
2 hours ago | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
While a lot of DC animation fans were upset over the cancellation of Young Justice and Green Lantern: The Animation Series earlier this year, Cartoon Network will be hoping The Dark Knight can get ease the blow with the arrival of the latest DC Nation offering, the CG-animated series Beware the Batman. We've already seen a brief teaser for the new series [see here], and now Cartoon Network and Warner Bros. has released a full-length trailer and selection of stills as part of the official show announcement...
The Caped Crusader will return to television screens this summer when Beware The Batman premieres on Cartoon Network Saturday, July 13 at 10 a.m. (Et/Pt) as part of DC Nation. Featuring cutting-edge CGI visuals to match the intricate twists and turns of the narrative, Batman steps out of the shadows and into the spotlight for an entirely new generation of fans.

9 Movie Franchises That Said F**k You To The Fans
4 hours ago | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Pretty much every major blockbuster now arrives from a pre-existing franchise, meaning each new release comes with a large base of die hard fans the filmmakers can offend. Bad word of mouth can kill a film and if enough fans intensely complain there could be a severe box office toll.
Production companies tend to put a lot of stock in events like the San Diego Comic Con, using what the truly dedicated fans make of their upcoming releases as a barometer for general audience. To follow this is a rather foolhardy exercise; Green Lantern was met with cheers while Avatar left people empty. Sure, what the fans think is important, but they make up only a small fraction of the audience; Avatar, The Avengers and The Dark Knight all succeeded because the general public wanted to see them and there’s nothing a disgruntled fan could have done to change that. »

Arrow Producer Greg Berlanti to Direct Epsilon
14 hours ago | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »
Greg Berlanti, who currently serves as executive producer and showrunner on the hit CW series Arrow, has signed on to direct the sci-fi thriller Epsilon for Sony Pictures.
We first reported on this project back in September, when Sony acquired the spec screenplay from Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick (Zombieland, G.I. Joe Retaliation). The story is set in the aftermath of a failed robot uprising, which has left most of the Earth without electricity. A group of robots take refuge on a space station, where they raise their own humans to do their bidding. The plot centers on a man who realizes he is more human that he previously believed.
Michael De Luca is producing alongside Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. No production schedule was given.
Greg Berlanti previously directed the romantic comedy Life as We Know It, and he worked on the screenplays for Green Lantern and Wrath of the Titans. »

Greg Berlanti Set To Direct “Zombieland” Creators’ “Epsilon”
15 hours ago | FamousMonsters of Filmland | See recent Famous Monsters of Filmland news »
Greg Berlanti, a veteran TV writer and producer for Dawson’S Creek, Everwood, Brothers & Sisters, Eli Stone, No Ordinary Family, Political Animals and Arrow, is moving into film. While he’s written for the big screen before (see, or don’t see Wrath Of The Titans and Green Lantern), he’s getting a chance to direct this time around with Epsilon.
Epsilon is a sci-fi film from the creators of Zombieland, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, that has been picked up by Sony and will be produced by Michael DeLuca. Here’s the synopsis:
“Epsilon is set after a failed robot rebellion on an Earth almost entirely devoid of electronic devices. The remaining robots seek refuge on a space station and begin to raise their own human lab rats, which they train to act as their agents. The main character is a man who discovers he is more human than he thought. »

Greg Berlanti to Write/Direct Robot Rebellion Flick Epsilon
16 hours ago | SciFiCool.com | See recent SciFiCool.com news »
The robots won’t stop trying to destroy us! Dreamworks and Steven Spielberg’s robot uprising flick “Robopocalypse” has been indeterminately stalled, so Sony is trying to pick up the slack. The studio has assigned Greg Berlanti to direct their own robot uprising movie “Epsilon”. Written by “Zombieland” guys Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, plot for “Epsilon” goes thusly: Story is set after a failed robot rebellion sends Earth back to the analog age. Seeking refuge on a space station, a few robots escape to raise their own human lab rats as obedient warriors to pave the way for retaliation. Epsilon stands amongst them until he begins to question all he was led to believe. Berlanti is mostly a TV guy, but previously wrote “Green Lantern” and “The Flash” movies, and also had a hand in the script for “Wrath of the Titans”. Okay, so nothing extraordinary about his work so far, »

'Man Of Steel' Gets Religious
18 hours ago | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Los Angeles — Seems Warner Bros. has taken movie marketing to a whole new level – even higher than a bird or a plane.
The studio enlisted Christian-focused firm Grace Hill Media to promote "Man of Steel" to faith-based groups by inviting them to early screenings and creating trailers that highlight the film's religious themes. They also enlisted Craig Detweiler, a Pepperdine University professor and author of "Into the Dark: Seeing the Sacred in the Top Films of the 21st Century," to create a Superman-centric sermon outline for pastors titled "Jesus: The Original Superhero."
"Let's consider how Superman's humble origins, his high calling and his transforming sacrifice point us towards Jesus, the original superhero," the notes read.
The tale of Superman has long been associated with religious allegories. "Man of Steel," which stars British actor Henry Cavill in the titular role, doesn't shy away from that theme, including portraying the character as 33 years old, »

TV Writer Greg Berlanti Gets 'Epsilon' Sci-Fi from 'Zombieland' Writers
18 hours ago | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
Though the work of Greg Berlanti has mostly been isolated to executive producing and writing TV series like "No Ordinary Family," "Everwood," "Brothers & Sisters" and the comic book adaptation "Arrow," he also had a hand in the script for Green Lantern. While that might not necessarily inspire a lot of confidence, Berlanti is sticking in the realm of science fiction for his sophomore directing effort. The project is called Epsilon, and the Sony Pictures production is quite the departure from Berlanti's feature film directorial debut, the subpar romantic comedy Life as We Know It with Katherine Heigl and Josh Duhamel. Read on! The film from Zombieland writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick is set after a failed robot rebellion on an Earth almost entirely devoid of electronic devices. But rather than focusing on the humans, the story follows the remaining robots as they seek refuge on a space station and »

Sony Developing Sci-Fi Robot Movie Epsilon
20 hours ago | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Sony Pictures is developing a sci-fi robot film called Epsilon, and they've hired Green Lantern and Arrow writer Greg Berlanti to direct it. The movie is currently being scripted by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, who wrote Zombieland, G.I. Joe: Retaliation, and the unproduced Deadpool movie.
The story for the film "is set after a failed robot rebellion sends Earth back to the analog age. Seeking refuge on a space station, a few robots escape to raise their own human lab rats as obedient warriors to pave the way for retaliation. Epsilon stands amongst them until he begins to question all he was led to believe."
It sounds like an interesting concept, hopefully they can pull it off and turn it into a great movie. Robot movies are about to blow up after Guillermo del Toro's Pacific Rim hits theaters. We've already got a few other robot movies in »

Austin Superhero Experts Check In on 'Man of Steel'
20 hours ago | Slackerwood | See recent Slackerwood news »
By Nico Chapin
In Bryan Singer's 2006 film Superman Returns, Lois Lane won a Pulitzer for an article entitled "Why the World Doesn't Need Superman." With Zack Snyder's reboot, Man of Steel, which opened last Friday, it becomes an interesting question. Since 2006, audiences have seen the Avengers assemble and the Dark Knight fall, then rise. They've watched the Spider-Man trilogy completed and then rebooted, and movies like Green Lantern fail to take flight. One then has to wonder: Is there any place left for the original superhero?
Certainly there's no denying his historical importance. Gesturing at walls lined with stacks of comics, Eric Burke, co-owner of South Austin's Tribe Comics and Games put it simply: "Without Superman, there wouldn't be any of this."
Yet it's been seven years now since the movie Superman Returns came out and by then, 19 years had passed since the dismal Superman IV: The Quest for Peace. »

Casting Lex Luthor in Superman: Man of Steel 2
21 hours ago | BuzzFocus.com | See recent BuzzFocus.com news »
One essential story that should spin out of Man of Steel is the formal introduction of Lex Luthor to this world. Imagine Luthor using Kal-El’s lack of experience against him to show the world that Superman does more harm than good (a classic Luthorism) – especially after the destruction and mayhem Superman “caused” in his battle with General Zod (Michael Shannon). Luthor doesn’t have to be the main villain; he can pull the strings, use technology or simply instigate Superman’s next big conflict in tandem with another villain. In no particular order, here is our list of actors who we think could pull off the Lex Luthor role, along with their pros and cons.
Pros: In this case, familiarity breeds comfort instead of contempt since we know his interpretation of Luthor on Smallville well, and he could further develop that on the big screen. He’s »

Preview Review: ‘The Lego Movie’ Teaser
19 June 2013 12:38 AM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »
“Toy Story” meets “The Avengers” in the teaser for “The Lego Movie,” a high-concept Warner Bros. idea that, until this very second, most of us didn’t have any idea how they would possibly go about bringing to the bigscreen. Turns out the strategy is to embrace the building-block nature of the world and its characters (as opposed to the “Legends of Chima” animated series and various videogames), while using CG to do what most kids already do with their imaginations, which is bring the plastic playthings to life.
Opening with a clever bait-and-switch sequence that looks like it might be the setup for “The Avengers 2″ and sounds like the digital grinding of a possible “Transformers 4,” the teaser might fool fans of both those series in theaters. The film’s plot doesn’t much matter, though the clip scores a few laughs by putting its premise in the mouth of Morgan Freeman, »

Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and More Assemble for 'The Lego Movie' Teaser Trailer
18 June 2013 4:42 PM, PDT | Fandango | See recent Fandango news »
You won't have to wait long to see Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman in the same movie. No, the Justice League movie isn't getting fast-tracked to production (yet). Instead, the trio is joining other famous characters in Warner Bros.' The Lego Movie. The plot is rather straightforward – an ordinary Lego figure is recruited to join in a quest to stop an evil Lego tyrant from gluing the universe together. Along with the aforementioned superheroes, the teaser trailer includes the Mermaid, Green Ninja, Green Lantern, Robin Hood, 1980s-something space guy, both Michaelangelos (the Renaissance sculptor and the Ninja Turtle), Abraham Lincoln, Lego Mummy, Lego Clown, Lego Crash Test Dummy and the 2002 NBA All-Stars. Oh, and Morgan Freeman voicing an old mystic named...

Man Of Steel - Another Movie Review
18 June 2013 4:15 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Tyrants!
I’ll admit. A year ago when the first trailer for Man of Steel came out, I was doubtful. Warner Bros. seemed to have no idea how to adapt any of their DC Comic universe outside of Batman (which was thanks to Chris Nolan), and director Zack Snyder was a known abuser of slo-mo that had just come off the craptastic bomb Sucker Punch. On top of that, the less that is said about their Green Lantern attempt, the better.
Then, as more trailers came out and plot details were revealed, I became more and more optimistic. After the three minute trailer that came out around April, I noticed general anticipation had shifted dramatically in the right direction and continued to build to a crescendo ever since. I got a chance to watch Man of Steel on Friday. Did it soar…or suck? Minor spoilers ahead.
