So if you’re into comic books, I’m sure you’ve heard of Marvel Zombies. It’s probably my most favorite Marvel series. Actually, Marvel Zombies vs Army of Darkness and Marvel Zombies 1 & 2 are my favorites, I haven’t read Marvel Zombies 3 yet.
So in MZ, all the superheroes are, as I’m sure you’ve guessed, zombies. They devour Earth of all humans and move on to other planets searching for more flesh and brains. That’s a pretty lame summary, but I don’t want to spoil it for anybody who hasn’t read it yet.
Well, it looks like DC Comics is starting their “own” zombie spin off. I’m not really a DC guy; sure, I like Batman, I grew up watching Batman cartoons and playing with Batman action figures, but I never read the comics.
DC Comics is calling this series “The Blackest Night”, and they’re calling the zombies “Black Lanterns” for some reason…It’ll probably be a good series, but I’m not sure if I’ll be reading it. The art at the top of the post is Superman as a “Black Lantern”.
So, the Dark Knight is now out on DVD and Blu-ray. Still haven’t seen it? Why not? What the hell is your problem? You think you’re better than a Batman movie? Oh, you went to see Mamma Mia instead? You deserve to not be alive anymore.
Now of course seeing movies on the big screen is always better than watching it at home, but if you happened to not witness the biggest event of the year, you can now at your own home.
The Dark Knight was released on DVD and Blu-ray on Tuesday, November 9th, and not surprisingly, sold like hot cakes. Dark Knight sold 3 million copies on DVD, and 600,000 copies on Blu-ray, on the first day alone! I can account for 1 of the DVD buys.
The economy is in the crapper, people cannot find jobs, but nobody can afford to pass up seeing The Dark Knight.
It looks like the United States release of Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe will be censoring The Joker’s fatality. I’m assuming that if they censor The Joker’s, they’ll be censoring others as well. I don’t believe the censoring has been confirmed, but the video shows it. Notice the zooms in on The Joker before he shoots the other guy in the head. When The Joker’s fatality was first revealed, you saw the entire thing, headshot and blood. To see the full, uncensored fatality, watch THIS VIDEO.
