THE DARK KNIGHT RISES Video - Making the 2012 TOY FAIR Batman Food Truck

Grand Central Marketing and Warner Bros. Consumer Products teamed-up together to create a special Food Truck for the 2012 Toy
Fair in New York City a few months ago. Here are 2 videos that show the creation of the vehicle and another showing it in action. This thing was BEAUTIFUL!!



They created it, of course, to hype the highly anticipated film, THE DARK KNIGHT RISES. Also, one
of the truck's graphics premiered a first look at the Caped Crusader's
newest flying vehicle, "The Bat."

BATMAN - THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS - New Promo Photos from the Future Animated Movie

You might remember from last year "BATMAN: YEAR ONE" was made into a full-length animated feature  by Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment. Well, now another classic story by Frank Miller is going to get the "DC Universe Animated Film" treatment! This movie will take on the iconic 1986 Graphic Novel, BATMAN: THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS!

This story doesn't even need an introduction. Basically, it's set in the near future when Bruce Wayne is an aging old man, retired. But because of some new events he is brought out of retirement. This Graphic Novel is so important to Bat-History that I'm sort of shocked they're even trying to to do this in animated form. But, it's got Bruce Timm behind it, as well as an amazing cast, so I know it should be pretty cool!



Here are some recent promo photos that have been leaked. My two favorites are the iconic "Lightning Bolt Flash" picture up above and then getting to see Carrie Kelley again, the 13 year old "Girl Robin". 

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES - Official Website Issues Arrest Warrant and Wanted Poster For BATMAN!

There's a HUGE Billboard Sign on the bldg advertising THE DARK KNIGHT RISES Movie! Yes, it's the Movie Poster with Bane turning his back, walking away, with a broken BATMAN Mask on the ground.

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES - New WB Publicity Photos From The BATMAN Film

Warner Bros was kind enough to leak a few DARK KNIGHT RISES Publicity Photos out on the web. Here, we get to see some new pictures of Batman, Catwoman, Bane, and CEO Lucius Fox talking with Bruce Wayne. Oh yeah, I think Morgan Freeman is the perfect Actor for that role. Just like Michael Caine makes an excellent Alfred and Gary Oldman is great as Jim Gordon ( not shown ). I mean, we gotta give props to Director Christopher Nolan for such excellent casting. I can't wait to see this movie!
