The rumor has it that the new Batman: The Dark Knight Rises film directed by Cristpher Nolan is based on the Knight Fall comic book series famous for Bane literally breaking Batman’s back. There has been plenty of footage that indicates Batman is not going have an easy win over Bane in the upcoming movie, but the latest teaser poster furthermore indicates that this might be the end of the legend. The Legend Ends sounds ominous but I have faith Nolan won’t be killing off Batman nor breaking his back (I hope). Then again, knowing Nolan’s style we could and should be expecting interesting plot twists in the movie that is to be released on the 20th of July 2012. To further feed the fans’ appetite, there supposedly another theatrical trailer shown before the new Mission Impossibe: Ghost Protocol movie. Another good reason to catch that flick.

We have seen the viral marketing effort behind the upcoming Batman movie The Dark Knight Rises. The marketing push for the movie continues with a teaser trailer adding fuel to the fire so to speak. The trailer shows footage from Batman Begins as well as new material that gives an even better idea of how Bane, one of Batman’s arch rivals is portrayed in the movie. Bane is the only villain to literally break Batman’s back and based on the clip, the Dark Knight definitely has to put his game face on to bring down this enemy. Click the pictures to access the leaked teaser trailer.

I have to say the latest Batman movies are leading the way in terms of viral marketing (for movies). I’m pretty sure those into movies, comics or both still remember the I believe in Harvey Dent campaign for the Dark Knight and the marketing team behind the latest Batman Adventure “The Dark Knight Rises” is following in the steps of the previous movie. Although the marketing has only kicked off, they certainly kicked off in style. Not only did they cleverly tie in social media channels like Twitter and Facebook, but they also revealed one of the most talked of characters on their site thedarkknightrises.com. This character being Bane.

Batman and Superman are probably the most known superheroes of all time and along the years we have seen many toys and figures produced based on these classic characters. Medicom recently collaborated with DC Comics in celebration of DC Comics’ 75th anniversary by producing Superman and Batman Kubrick 1:6 sets with the classic heroes taking a form of Kubrick figure with removable limbs and familiar shape. The characters are inspired by the 1989 movies from both franchises. The figures are definitely collectors’ pieces and should make a great addition to any collection. Awesome.

Ryan Reynold’s a busy man. Not only is he still confirmed as 2012′s Deadpool in his own spin-off for Marvel, he’ll be lighting up the sky in 2011′s Green Lantern for DC comics.

This particular reincarantion of the Lantern, Hal Jordan, is a cocky test pilot who, by coincidende/chance/destiny receives a ring that enables him to harness the power of his imagination to protect the universe against an outside evil, Parallax (try saying that sentence with a serious face and not giggling – it’s hard).
