TOM HARDY as Bane and CHRISTIAN BALE as Batman clash.
The Dark Knight Rises – Christopher Nolan’s amazing trilogy wrapped with this immensely satisfying conclusion featuring Batman (Christian Bale) teaming with Catwoman (Anne Hathaway) to save Gotham from Bane (Tom Hardy). If “Marvel’s The Avengers” was the popcorn summer blockbuster, this was the more sophisticated comic book movie epic. Despite the Colorado shooting tragedy undoubtedly keeping some audience members away, the film still reached #7 on the all-time highest grossing charts with $448 million. If for some reason you missed it during its theatrical run, make sure to check out easily one of the year’s best films that will no doubt get snubbed come award season.

Cindy (Jennifer Garner), Timothy (CJ Adams) and Jim (Joel Edgerton) Green give an impromptu performance at a family gathering.
The Odd Life of Timothy Green – I really enjoyed this family-friendly Disney film starring Jennifer Garner and Joel Edgerton. It’s an easygoing film that’s ideal for the holidays to watch while you’re wrapping gifts or just want something relaxing to watch while sipping on eggnog.
Hope Springs – Meryl Streep and Tommy Lee Jones play a married couple looking to bring back their spark with the help of a counselor.

If you’re traveling this holiday, you may as well have some quality reading material. Here’s Third Eye Comics Steve Anderson with all the recommended pick-ups for this week.
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #698 *DYING WISH CHAPTER 1* begins!
Folks, we’ve been singing praise upon Dan Slott’s stellar run on AMAZING SPIDER-MAN since he first began with BIG TIME a few years ago. It’s been a long, crazy ride, and while there’s been better arcs than others, for the most part, the entire run has been an incredible read. Slott has put in a ton of hard work at rebuilding the world and mythos of Spidey, and in the process, has given us one of the most consistently entertaining and compelling Marvel monthlies on the racks.
Just trust me: it’s worth it. 
This issue is, single-handedly, the biggest single issue of a superhero comic I’ve read in 2012, and yes, that includes some of the already epic stuff out there like the reveal in BATMAN #12, and the conclusion to Avengers vs. X-Men in issue #12. This is a major moment in Marvel history, and come Wednesday, everyone is going to be wanting this one! More

Meronym (Halle Berry) and Zachry (Tom Hanks) struggle to hold on in “Cloud Atlas.”
There’s no middle ground with a film like “Cloud Atlas.” You’ll either greatly admire the ambitious undertaking to bring David Mitchell’s revered 2004 novel to the big screen or be turned off by the scene-shifting and confusing script within the first 20-minutes. I’m definitely in the latter of this endlessly frustrating effort from filmmakers trying too hard to make you see their vision as a masterpiece instead of simply making one. More

Third Eye Comics’ Steve gives his take on what’s coming out today:
MARVEL NOW: POINT ONE #1 – THE FUTURE OF MARVEL NOW
This is the springboard for many of the MARVEL NOW titles that haven’t quite gotten the spotlight.
Personally: I am so pumped for stuff like NOVA, and the new GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY, as well as Kid Loki getting a starring role in the upcoming YOUNG AVENGERS series. I’m also pretty stoked to see what looks like the inclusion of fan-favorite Avengers movie character, Agent Coulson, into the Secret Avengers line-up.
The Marvel NOW Point One one-shot showcases 6 big stories in a special oversized issue, featuring the all-star creative teams involved with each character. More

A lot of the chatter on “The Dark Knight Rises” from boards I check out is giving a lot of praise to Anne Hathaway’s performance as Selina Kyle (a.k.a. Catwoman). I wasn’t as big a fan, but she’s definitely impressed others. Sure to receive universal praise is Hot Toys’ “The Dark Knight Rises” Selina Kyle figure. They teased the 12″ collectible figure earlier this weekend.
Here’s Hot Toys’ write-up:
The collectible figure of the prominent character Catwoman/ Selina Kyle is coming soon!
The legend is coming to an end…

While I’m cranking away at the review of “The Dark Knight Rises” [to come in another half-hour or so] I figured I’d offer up this teaser image snapped by my favorite photographer in the world, my Dad, featuring the principal characters of the film – Bane, Catwoman and Batman.

Movie Reviews Anne Hathaway, Batman Returns, Catwoman, Halle Berry, Michelle Pfeiffer, The Dark Knight Rises 1 Comment
From the exact opposite side of the spectrum of “Batman Begins” comes a look at the ill-fated Halle Berry take on “Catwoman.” Worst case scenario, Anne Hathaway’s take on the character in “The Dark Knight Rises” will have to settle for being the third best film version after Michelle Pfeiffer (“People Like Us“) excellent turn in “Batman Returns” and Lee Merriweather in the 1966 “Batman.” It most assuredly won’t be the worst. But now, let’s look at a very dark blemish on the cinematic history of The Dark Knight.

ANNE HATHAWAY as Selina Kyle in Warner Bros. Pictures’ and Legendary Pictures’ action thriller “THE DARK KNIGHT RISES.”
Let me get this out the way real quick – Halle Berry in a skimpy leather outfit = a very good thing. Halle Berry in a skimpy leather outfit in the “Catwoman” movie = a mind-numbingly bad thing. More
Sideshow teases new Poison Ivy figure

Sideshow Collectibles sent off a teaser image of Batman’s most eco-friendly villain Poison Ivy. Not sure what line it’s from, but from the teaser alone, it looks pretty well done. I’ll assume we’ll get full shots at San Diego Comic Con, which kicks off next week.
Ivy’s an interesting choice since as far as I’ve heard [and I've tried to keep my knowledge as spoiler-free as possible] she’s not showing up in “The Dark Knight Rises.” Course Sideshow could have a Catwoman figure waiting for SDCC as well.
