Comic Vine Weekly News: 06/22/12

A day later than normal, but well worth the wait. Thanks for breaking down the news of the week for us, Sara. And "Hurray!" for the return of the glasses.

Not sure why, but I'm keeping my expectations low for Dark Knight Rises. It'll probably be ok but these trailers had me tuning out. Could be because Marvel's been on such a stellar streak since 2008.

DREDD

this video can use an audio adjustment, no offense sara.

I'm happy that Nolan's done with Batman after rises, not that I didn't enjoy "Generic vigilante begins" and "The Generic Vigilante" but I think I'd like a Batman movie thats... ya know... got Batman in it.

Aww no bloopers this week Sara? haha too bad they are fun.

I think DC should but Bats to bed for a while

And I'd like to join the X-Men but I don't think that'll happen either :/

I don't think they need to put him to bed though, just take it in a different direction.

Reboot it, but don't do an origin story (everyone already knows it). Sign up some great young actors for a bunch of films (like Marvel did with the avengers). And do like one Batman epic, 5 or 6 movies, and 3 Justice League movies, over the next 15 - 20 years or so. It could cover the Robins, Jason getting killed, killing joke, stuff about Damien, Court of Owls, and end it on a Dark Knight returns ish story, but a bit more grounded (without the Dark Knight returns chin) and tie it into a Superman epic that would be done with the same number of films, and cover all the big points of his life etc.

That won't happen of course.... but it would be nice (and I think very profitable) if they did it.

So was it announced who won those thumb drives yet?

@Babs Thanks Sara! I started worrying we wouldnt hear from you at all :)

Never return to Batman...?

Good news cast!

ya'll need a better boom-mic. The non-VO segments are way too quiet.

@csl316:

Eh, they've been releasing a lot of movies, but I wouldn't call Hulk/Thor/IM2 or Cap 'stellar'.

@CrashLanden:

I didn't have any real trouble with the audio. The volumes sounded a bit different between intro and outro cuts. Could have used a bit more volume on those, but I didn't have any trouble hearing her. I didn't find it distracting either. The middle news portion sounded great and even.

@thechessclub:

I believe that she does edit her own videos now. They currently don't have a video editor.

Interesting... A little but a raid in there

You're right, I'm probably overselling. Although I really dug Cap, dug IM1 more, and The Avengers is The Avengers. So 3 movies is still pretty cool in my book.

Can't wait to see DREDD....it looks sooooooooooo badass ...(^^,)
