A new poster for the third and final movie in Christopher Nolan‘s Batman franchise, The Dark Knight Rises, has been released.   Captioned “The Legend Ends,” the poster shows a gloomy, rainy scene with Batman’s broken mask lying on the ground while the movie’s villain, Bane, walks away.

The image and caption, along with star Christian Bale‘s confirmation that he’s finished with the role of Bruce Wayne, have some wondering if Nolan has actually killed off Batman.   While it may not be an actual death, if Nolan stays true to the mythology, something tragic is going to happen:  in the “Knightfall” story arc from The Batman comic books, Bane breaks Batman’s back, leaving him crippled.

Fans are eagerly waiting for the film’s release next summer.  Nolan says he welcomes the anticipation and hype:

“It’s terrific, to have people that interested in something. It reminds you that it is a real honor to work on something that means so much to people.  I’d love to be able to claim that I invented the whole thing and that’s why they’re interested. I did not. I’ve been given a very precious thing to do my best with, to look after and not to let people down. There’s a certain amount of fear that comes with it and intimidation but it’s also a great privilege. [As for the fans], they want it to be great, they want to go enjoy it and they’re fascinated by it. You know, there’s always controversy regarding things that people will disagree with but hopefully they appreciate the effort of trying to make something good.”

Catch The Dark Knight Rises in theaters on July 20, 2012.

Fairy tales being retold are nothing new, but the new trailer for Snow White and The Huntsman is already distinguishing itself as a contender for what could be one of the best adaptations.

It’s still early and this is only the first of many peeks leading up to the summer 2012 release but Kristen Stewart, Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron are intriguing in their roles of Snow White, The Huntsman and the Evil Queen respectively.

With Theron’s rendition of the infamous line “Mirror, Mirror on the wall. Who is fairest of them all?” the plan to find Snow White (Stewart) and kill the one who is fairer than the evil Queen, is set in motion.

Hemsworth’s Huntsman is recruited by the wicked monarch because he is “someone who does not fear the dark forest.”

Director Rupert Sanders visual style gives the once Disney-fied story a bleak and frightful edge for a modern audience.

Watch the trailer under and check out all the new character posters released by Universal Studios. It is slated to open on June 2, 2012.

Kristen Stewart and Chris Hemsworth look determined and ready to do battle with evil Queen Charlize Theron in the new banner for Snow White and The Huntsman.

Stewart is centered, looking over her shoulder and holding a knife in the forest with the light is shining down on her.

Hemsworth is geared up for battle with an axe and shield, ready to fight.

Theron is shrouded in darkness with her birds of prey and she wields a pretty big knife as well.

The dark tone of this banner continues what the individual posters released during Comic-Con promised: this ain’t no Disney fairytale.

The film isn’t due until June 2012 so hopefully we get a lot more promo stuff around the holidays and after.

Dr. Seuss‘ environmental fable, The Lorax is coming to the big screen in a brightly colored world of 3D and CGI animation in the spring of 2012 and the first trailer is here.

Zac Efron voices the boy (named Ted in the film) and Taylor Swift is Ashley, the girl he has a crush on who wants nothing more than to see the Truffala Trees in the natural world.

Danny Devito is the “furry peanut” The Lorax, Betty White is Ted’s grandmother and Ed Helms will bring the Once-ler to life.

The trailer gives a glimpse at the tale Seuss was telling – the industrial and consumerist society that destroys the natural world – while trying to fill out the hour-plus long time the film will run with humor and remain true to the story.

Ken Daurio and Cinco Paul are the writers for this adaptation and the duo also worked on Horton Hears A Who and Despicable Me.

Check out the trailer and some photos below and tell us – do you have high hopes for The Lorax? (Read the article)

Here’s the poster for the upcoming comedy Jack and Jill starring Adam Sandler.

This movie couldn’t look any less idiotic, if you’ve seen the trailer you know exactly what I mean. This poster isn’t doing the movie any favors either. I miss the funny Adam Sandler, what happened to him? I hope this movie is as massive of a failure as it should be, it’s an insult to the intelligence of the movie going public.

Here’s the poster for the upcoming horror sequel The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence).

I was the unfortunate victim of a small portion of the first Human Centipede movie, and I wish I hadn’t even see those few scenes. This sequel is touting itself as even more graphic grotesque and vomit inducing. Why anyone would want to subject themselves to this kind of “entertainment” is beyond me, but things like this just keep getting made.

Here’s the first trailer for the upcoming movie One for the Money starring Katherine Heigl.

Seems like the Jersey accent comes and goes for Heigl in the trailer, doesn’t seem natural. It’s hard to tell what this movie is supposed to be selling, straight comedy or action comedy. It doesn’t exactly look like comedy gold in any case, but it might be worth a few laughs. Seems like they are definitely trying to reach out to a wide audience, but I’m not sure it’s working. What do you think?

Here’s the trailer for the upcoming movie Man on a Ledge starring Sam Worthington.

As much as this movie looks like it could be pretty entertaining and good, I feel like I’ve seen it already. This trailer gives way too much of the story away. Isn’t there some way they could have refrained from showing him jump off the ledge? Hopefully there is more to it, maybe a twist of some kind. Will you see it?
