Mid Week Update

WELCOME BACK!!!

Yeah, you've heard all the excuses before.I know, I know. I wont bore you with any details. Lets just say time has been scarce and we'll leave it at that. Today is kinda of a mixed bag,so hope you enjoy it!

 

Batman Begins:Again

Earlier today, Warner Bros announced that the sequel to last years hit (And my favorite movie of 2005) "Batman Begins" will go into production in early 2007.

 

The film, titled "The Dark Knight" will star Christian Bale, once again donning the batsuit and Christopher Nolan again directing. The big news however is Heath Ledger has been cast as "The Joker". Brokeback Joker? j/k

 

Reaction to that news has been mostly positive and although it might seem like strange casting, I'm sure Ledger will have alot of fun in this role.

Although no release date has been announced yet, WB will probably be shooting for a Summer 2008 release on this one.

Stay tuned.

 

Superman Returns II

Returns 2009?

Bryan Singer has also confirmed that he is in talks with Warner Bros. to direct and write the sequel to this years "Superman Returns." If all goes well, Singer hopes to have the movie in theatres by Summer 2009 and said that it will have an "alien villain" in it. I'm hoping for either "Brainiac" or "Darkseid". I guess we'll find out in about 3 years. ;-)

 

Chappelle's Show Thoughts

So now that "Chappelle's Show: Season 3" has finally debut, fans everywhere get their wish of more Dave Chappelle comedy goodness. But was it worth the wait? So far, the sketches have been fairly mild in the laughs category IMO.

With the exception of his Tupac parody (which had me CRACKING UP), this show has seen pretty passable and bland. Maybe its because Dave's heart wasnt really in it anymore? Who knows. I havent finished watching all of the skits yet, but so far it seems like releasing the so called "Lost Episodes" have hurt the legacy of the series.

OK, I apologize for the short update. I know I never finished the "Superman vs Batman" script/story. I'm working on getting that one up here soon. Hopefully this will be begining of regular updates again on the "Two Minute Drill". Til the next time!
