Godzilla Makes A Lot Of Money, Gets Sequel

Yes, it turns out that making nearly $200 million globally in your first weekend is enough to warrant a sequel, and Warner Bros. has put a second Godzilla movie in development. But what does that mean? Very little at the moment, other than some bigwig at WB yelled “MAKE ME A SEQUEL,” and now some…

Warner Bros. Schedules New Animated Films In 2017 and 2018

According to a report by Variety, Warner Bros. is finally stepping up its animation game for the future. After the massive success of The Lego Movie, the studio has scheduled two new films from its animation think-tank. Neither have titles yet, but they’ll both be in 3D. One is set for Feb 10, 2017 and…

Warner Bros. Has Nine DC Movies Planned Including Sandman and Fables

Looks like Warner Bros. is getting its act together. The Wall Street Journal reports WB has nine DC comics movies planned, including the already announced Batman Vs. Superman and Justice League films, and now confirmed movie adaptations o Sandman and Fables. While a Fables movie sounds awesome (and we know what creator Mark Buckingham wants…

Pure Auditory Nostalgia: Over 40 Minutes of Cartoon Sound Effects

Here now for your aural pleasure are 42 minutes and 29 seconds of sound effects from vintage Warner Bros. cartoons. This is highly concentrated auditory nostalgia, delivered right to your ear-holes. It’s surprising how many of the screeches, bleats, booms, bangs, clatters, whooshes, whizzes and instrumental clangs in this SFX reel are instantly recognizable. Like…

Warner Bros. will be announcing a new slate of movies based on DC comics in the near future. It’s expected that at least one will be a Justice League movie, and perhaps this means we’ll be hearing more about the Sandman film soon. [via Bleeding Cool]

​Could The Star Wars Sequels Be Worse Than The Prequels? Absolutely.

Did I tell you guys that after the apocalypse happened, magic returned to Earth? Yeah, it’s pretty wild! One day I was stopping in a town on my mail route and then this guy told me to pick a card and put it back in the deck without him seeing. And he still knew what…

​Who Would Be The Worst Green Lantern In The Universe?

Greetings, all! You know I’m writing to you guys from the future, right? I don’t know how it works, since I’m a fake mailman and not a quantum physicist. Doesn’t matter. What matters is could one of you maybe bury a big box of booze, guns, and porn by the oak tree three miles north…

The 90-Year Evolution of the Warner Bros. Logo

If you watch a lot of (older) movies you’ll notice that studio logos are generally quite consistent. The spinning globe of Universal, the Paramount mountain, the Warner Bros. shield, they’re all refined over time, but the basic premise has remained the same for decades. All studios have their main logo that appears at the beginning…

The ’60s Batman TV show is finally coming to DVD (thanks to Conan?)

You have possibly waited decades for a hiome video release of the campy, ridiculous wonderful 1960s Batman TV series starring Adam West, and now your wait is over, because Warner Bros. is finally releasing the show in a box set… as first reported by Conan O’Brien on Twitter. Wait, what? Seriously. Conan just tweeted the…

WB may shoot Justice League immediately after Batman Vs. Superman

Please head to your nearest salt dispensary and grab a choice-looking grain first, but the rumor mill says WB/DC will be shooting a Justice League movie back-to-back with Batman Vs. Superman, turning them into one extended shoot, but truth be told this rumor makes a lot of sense. As Latino Review points out, there are…

​Why WB’s plan to churn out small DC comic movies is a terrible idea

This morning, we told you about the rumor that Warner Bros. might be considering a major change in their superhero movie production by adding a great many smaller superhero movies to their schedule. I’m inclined to believe this rumor is true, because it’s a terrible idea, and WB/DC specializes in those. If you’ll recall, the…

David Goyer pitches a Sandman movie with Joseph Gordon-Levitt as lead?

Okay, let me clarify that: David Goyer is definitely pitching a Sandman movie, and Badass Digest is reporting that The Dark Knight’s Rises’ Joseph Gordon-Levitt is somehow involved. It’s possible that JGL wants to direct it, but it seems much more likely that might play Dream in such an adaptation (or both, hell). This is…

Jaimie Alexander confirms talks with DC — will she be Wonder Woman?

Actress Jaimie Alexander, best known for her role as the warrior goddess Sif in Marvel’s Thor movies (the second of which opens this weekend), has confirmed she’s in talks with DC and Warner Bros. about a possible role in Batman/Superman— but which one? Alexander mentioned these talks during the AMC Movie Talk panel at Stan…

Bridesmaids‘ Paul Feig wanted to make a wacky Wonder Woman movie

I give Warner Bros. a lot of shit for being unable to capitalize on 99% of DC superheroes, but occasionally even they do something right — such as when they passed on director Paul Feig’s pitch for a Wonder Woman comedy flick where Batman and Superman would have been super-chauvinists. Here’s the details according to…

What killed the Golden Age of Cartoons?

Um, you guys realize it’s the government shutdown that leads directly to the mysterious apocalypse that destroys the U.S. and which I now currently wander around in delivering mail, right? I don’t want to ruin the surprise, but you should all start stocking up on underpants. Better than gold nowadays. Just sayin’. Toon It Up…

WB CEO: “We need to get Wonder Woman on the big screen or TV”

Impatient to see a Wonder Woman movie? Apparently, so is Warner Bros. CEO Kevin Tsujihara. Speaking at an entertainment law conference yesterday, Tsujihara talked a bit about the state of DC characters in film and television. The Hollywood Reporter quotes him as calling the lack of DC feature films beyond the Batman and Superman franchises…

Wonder Woman can be made into a movie, and this amazing short is proof

Warner Bros. often says it’s “difficult” to make a movie about the world’s best-known superheroine. Something tells me that if Warner Bros. ever gets its act together to make a Wonder Woman movie — and that’s a big if — that it’s not going to look half as awesome as this incredible, fan-made short. It’s…

No, Game of Thrones Is Not Worth Ending a Friendship Over

Normally I deliver mail throughout post-apocalyptic America for food, trade goods, or even sex with Olivia Williams. Seeing as I need (most of) these things to survive, it’s a system that works pretty well. So I have a message to whoever created those “Forever” stamps the Post Office has to take at any time no…

How Warner Bros Transformed The Wizard of Oz into an IMAX Classic

1939’s The Wizard of Oz is the standard bearer of cinema’s Golden Age. The live action fantasy classic has become an integral part of the pop culture lexicon, endlessly parodied, referenced, and retold in everything from children’s books to ultra-porn. And now it is coming back—to an even bigger silver screen. In this featurette, Warner…

Bryan Cranston may possibly be up for Lex Luthor in Batman/Superman

Latino Review is hinting that Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston is up for the role of Lex Luthor in DC/WB’s Man of Steel sequel Batman/Superman. Please remember that “up for the role” can mean as much as “they’re in final contract negotiations” and as little as “his name is on a wishlist somewhere.” Being considered…
