Christopher Nolan can’t talk about Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s rumored appearance (which has already been completely and totally denied by JGL’s peoples) in Man of Steel as The Bat. And while we are on the subject of Man of Steel, I am just going to assume that you saw the trailer that everyone went frikkin’ batsh*t over this week. I saw it and I have the same thing to say about it that I’ve been saying for months – TARNISHY. One other Man of Steel related thing, the French magazine, Studio Cine Live, has a cover which shows a closeup of the new, very tarnishy and high tech sporty Superman suit for the super reboot.

Heidi, from the clips I’ve seen, Man Of Steel looks like another reboot, and they’re trying again to invent the wheel.
My cynical prediction is that JGL will appear in Man of Steel as his character from Dark Knight Rises (but not as Batman) but then Henry Cavill will show up in the Justice League movie with a new Batman that isn’t JGL.
I really want them to let the Nolan Batman movies be done with.
A romantic zombie – no need to run!
WARM BODIES looks like it will be much fun!
