New Justice League animated feature from WB? Yes please!
 

 
This one is adapted from the “Tower of Babel” storyline from Mark Waid’s JLA run. Voiced by my favorite DCAU actors Kevin Conroy (Batman), Tim Daly (Superman), Nathan Fillion (Green Lantern) and Michael Rosenberg (The Flash- although it’s Barry, not Wally).
 
I really can’t wait for this one. I was really impressed with “Earth 2″ and the style seems to be similar, if not the same.
 
And for those who were disappointed in the title of this post, here:

If my brain wasn’t bubbly enough with thoughts of Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law.

WB has released another image of two more dwarven travelers from Peter Jackson’s “The Hobbit”.
 
This time, we have Dean O’Gorman as Fili and Aidan Turner as Kili.  Dean you may have seen in “Young Hercules”.  And Aidan?  Well, Aiden just got finished with Series 3 of the BBC’s hit show “Being Human” as Mitchell the vampire.

Two of the youngest Dwarves, Fili and Kili have been born into the royal line of Durin and raised under the stern guardianship of their uncle, Thorin Oakensheild. Neither has ever travelled far, nor ever seen the fabled Dwarf City of Erebor. For both, the journey to the Lonely Mountain represents adventure and excitement. Skilled fighters, both brothers set off on their adventure armed with the invincible courage of youth, neither being able to imagine the fate which lies before them.

These two differ in looks from the other images released thus far.  They’re far younger in look and feel.  I’m keen to see how they’ll be portrayed.

WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME THEY WERE DOING ANOTHER SHERLOCK HOLMES MOVIE???

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows Trailer on iTunes
 
So, this totally slipped under my radar. I dug the first film despite its flaws, and my inner fanboy (who is, let’s face it, not very picky) wished upon a star for sequel. And lo, the Hollywood fairy hath delivered unto me a sweet, sweet Christmas present this year.
 
Finally, something to look forward to during the holidays!
 
I mean, come on? The original made how much? Oh- Box Office Mojo says: $209,028,679. I guess that was pretty good. Wait- that was only domestic? AND it was the #10 money maker in 2009? Sheeoot! No WONDER they wanted to do another!
 
Yes, I’ll be seeing this opening weekend. Yes, probably at the Arclight. If it’s half as good as the first one, to me it’ll be worth it.
