HELLBOY 2, DARK KNIGHT, AVATAR, BOY WITH THE INCREDIBLE BRAIN

Serial news! We get on it right away with...
... Luke Goss has signed on to be in Hellboy 2: The Golden Army. Guillermo, the director, worked with him back in Blade II and it seems like they matched in a friendly way. Luke Goss said in an interview with ShockTilYouDrop:
I play 'the Prince' and in simplistic terminology he's the nemesis. The great thing about him is he's not trying to take over the world, he's a rounded character that's not just driven by greed and I think people are going to enjoy the depth Guillermo brings to him.
Hellboy 2 will certainly be good, at least like the first one. If you want to see something fun with Goss in it, watch The Man.
Another casting is made, Eric Roberts will be one of the villains in Batman 2: The Dark Knight. The guy is pretty much the "supporting" guy, but a villain in Batman is a nice step. He'll be a "mafia kingpin", whatever that is...
Avatar director James Cameron doesn't care about money it seems. Why should he? The studios should be grateful for the billions they made with Titanic. Avatar is said to have reached the 195 million mark, however Thomson on Hollywood claims it should more like 350 million. Of course Sony denies it.
One thing's for sure - Avatar is gonna be a hell of a movie. Too bad we have to wait almost two more years.
The wonderboy or The Boy With the Incredible Brain as the title of the documentary about David Tammet is, will become a movie. If you don't know anything about this guy, he's amazing. You can watch the above mentioned documentary over at Google videos. I started watching by curiosity and didn't stop until it ended.
Warner Bros. purchased the rights and let me tell you - this is the next Rainman.
That's all! Until laters,

I also believe that they are setting up The Mad Hatter for a future movie. If you watch carefully, Batman says that the man Dent is interrogating in The Dark Knight (the creepy smiling guy from the ambulance) is named "Jervis Tetch". This is The Mad Hatter.
Lastly, I would love to see all these films come together in to a plot that involves Arkham Asylum. There have been many amazing graphic novels that focus on this (especially "A Serious Place on Serious Earth"). This would be a perfect opportunity for the writers to place Batman against not only a huge cast of badies but also against his own troubled mind.)
Well, thats just the opinion of someone who runs a company devoted to selling serial killer merchandise so you can take it or leave it. I hope you can all stop by SerialKillerCalendar.com to pick up some morbid merch (including the new Serial Killer Magazine, Serial Killer Trading Cards and Serial Killer Action Figures. I know, its a shameless display of self promotion but really, I have to justify reading up on Batman Movies while I am supposed to be working somehow.
