NEW Dark Knight Pictures

Check out this new Roll of film. These are awesome!

Clown Travel Agency

It’s been a while since there has been something worth noting about The Dark Knight viral marketing campaign. Of course it’s only fitting that the Joker do something on April Fools Day. Apparently the Joker is doing a bit of traveling these days. He’s even set up his own Travel Agency. Click on the link and you will see the image below.Click on the envelope with today’s date on it and it gives you this message.After reading the note click on it and it gives you a list of locations.Unfortunately I don’t live anywhere near these places. I believe that once the items have been found a passport stamp is placed by the location. It appears that two have already been found. I am curious as to what the Joker has left for his participants, so if anyone finds out, leave it in the comments. Very exciting stuff.

Tonight On Smallville…Veritas

Ok so this is the one to watch. I have heard so many GOOD things about this one. So I am excited to watch. Here is the CW official description:

KARA TEACHES CLARK HOW TO FLY — Kara (Laura Vandervoort) decides to teach Clark (Tom Welling) how to fly in order to strengthen his chances against Brainiac (guest star James Marsters). However, Brainiac seems to have the upper hand against the super cousins,
and some of Clark’s loved ones are caught in the crossfire. Kristin Kreuk, Michael Rosenbaum, Allison Mack, Erica Durance, Aaron Ashmore and John Glover also star. James Marshall directed the episode written by Brain Peterson & Kelly Souders

This is going to be it for a while. This was originally supposed to be the season finale due to the writers strike, but filming has resumed on the show, but won’t air until April 17th. So although changed from the original, this should still be a great episode!

Episode discussed in the comments.

Tonight On Smallville…Traveler

From the chatter I hear, this is going to be one of two episodes that you CAN NOT MISS. After tonight everything will change.

The CW’s Official description:

LIONEL KIDNAPS CLARK — Lionel (John Glover) arranges to have Clark (Tom Welling) kidnapped and held in a kryptonite-lined cell at a Luthorcorp facility. After Chloe (Allison Mack) and Lana (Kristin Kreuk) find a military electric probe at the farm, they confront Lionel, who throws suspicion onto Lex (Michael Rosenbaum). Chloe and Lana take Kara (Laura Vandervoort) to the Fortress and beg Jor-El to restore her memory as she is the only one who can save Clark. Glen Winter directed the episode written by Don Whitehead & Holly Henderson 

Tonight On Smallville…Hero…and One Republic

Smallville is finally back on. Hero marks the return of Pete Ross. Also don’t miss One Republic and the shameless promotion of Stride gum. Poor Pete, he always has to be the guy to hock something, even when he is the guest star.

The Officaial CW description:

BILLBOARD CHART-TOPPING BAND “ONE REPUBLIC” PERFORMS AND PETE RETURNS — Kara (Laura Vandervoort) and Jimmy (Aaron Ashmore) attend a “One Republic” concert and one of the roadies turns out to be former Smallville resident Pete Ross (guest star Sam Jones III). Pete unwittingly chews some kryptonite-laced gum and develops super powers.

Clark (Tom Welling) and Chloe (Allison Mack) are thrilled to meet up with their old friend but warn him against using his powers in public. However, Lex (Michael Rosenbaum) discovers Pete’s powers and blackmails him into helping break into a Lionel’s (John Glover) safe by threatening to reveal Chloe is a meteor freak. Kristin Kreuk and John Glover also star. Michael Rohl directed the episode written by Aaron Helbing & Todd Helbing.

Probably not going to be the best episode to date, but it will be cool to see Pete.

Happy Birthday Superman!

The date is actually debated, but based on the majority of the mythology, today is The Man Of Steel’s Birthday. It would be a sin to let this go by without posting about it.

Waiting for more contestants

Just to remind you there is a JLA contest going on with the prize being a copy of the new Justice League: The New Frontier. You have until 9:00 PM tonight to send me your pictures. We do have a front runner right now by way of default. No one else has sent me anything, so if you guys don’t put anything together Duck Tape Man will win.

——————————————-UPDATE——————————————-

I was wrong about the release date on The New Frontier. It’s this Thursday the 28th, not today. With this I am extending the contest until Thursday at 12 Noon EST. You have until then to get me your photos. So Stef you have time and Joel you are way to big a comic nerd to not whip something up with your boys!

Let The Games Begin

So here we go. The moment you’ve all been waiting for. The contest for the Justice League: The New Frontier DVD has begun.

Stating now you have until Monday February 25nd @ 9:00 PM EST to invent and dress up as your own Super Hero. It can be any kind of super hero you’d like but points are awarded for creativity. Also extra points will be awarded for dynamic duo’s as well. In other words if you’re a parent and you get your kid(s) to dress up as your sidekick this will tip the scales in your favor.

When you have completed your costume, snap a picture of yourself, and your sidekick if you have one, doing something heroic and email it to me at: superman1224@gmail.com. I will post all entries on this blog and announce the winner on Tuesday February 26th, the day the Justice League DVD is released. The winner will receive a free copy of Justice League: The New Frontier for FREE, courtecy of Warner Home Video.

Good luck to you all and remember the more creative the better. Any questions email me or post them in the comments.

Don’t You Love Free Stuff?

Of course you do. So I’ve decided to hold a contest on this blog for the chance to win a copy of the new animated Justice League: The New Frontier DVD that is being released on Feb 26th. Keep checking back for more details about the contest. They could drop at anytime and you want to be the first to get this information.

Based on the graphic novel by Darwyn Cooke and produced by Michael Goguen and animation legend, Bruce Timm, Justice League: The New Frontier is the epic tale of the founding of the Justice League . The New Frontier takes viewers on an action-packed adventure, exploring the origins of the Justice League. DC Comics legends Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman are all featured in the film as well as Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter and The Flash – as they band together to form the legendary super team. Strangers at first, these very different heroes must overcome fear and suspicion to forge an alliance against a monster so formidable, even the mighty Superman cannot stop it alone. If they fail, the entire planet will be “cleansed” of humanity.

The Dark Knight Prologue

Watch it while you can kids. Big thanks to my friend Jack who knows how much I would love this!

****Update****

So yeah as predicted the prologue was taken down by YouTube per Warner Bros. There’s a shocker. For those of you that want the low down we can discus what it was all about in the comments. Chris Nolan said he was inspired by the movie Heat when making this. You can tell BIG TIME. This, however doesn’t take away from the very compelling 7 minute episode that gives you a tid-bit of Ledger’s Joker. I could talk for days how well done this little prologue was executed. It really sets the table for The Dark Knight.

****Update****

The prologue is still up here. Watch it while you can. Special thanks to Cadmus labs.
