Is this what happens in the Dark Knight Rises Prologue?

This description was found on a website claiming to have seen the forthcoming Dark Knight Rises prologue. Take from it what you will and remember that it could be far from the truth. Mind you, if this is what happens during the prologue, it sounds bloody fantastic!

According to the website, the prologue covers one of the assassinations ordered by Ra’s al Ghul. “A mind-blowing action sequence set aside the Hercules plane, involving some innovative camera work, a la Inception’s hallway fight scene”, it says.

The scene sees Bane and his crew hijacking a military plane, that happens to be carrying a nation’s dictator. Bane “successfully kills the leader, but makes some mistakes along the way and is unable to safely land the plane. Because of the resulting injuries from the accident, he has to undergo complicated surgeries, and that is how he winds up with that scar down his neck, and the need for the mask to numb the pain”.

Rama's Screen’s source also suggests that the backstory of Bane has been altered. Now, he’s raised by Ra’s al Ghul, and “his upbringing mirrors that of Bruce Wayne”.
Working for the League Of Shadows, “he kills political figures that are deemed unfit”, and “he comes to Gotham to start a revolution by revealing the cover up dealing with Harvey Dent”, along with “killing the Mayor, among other key political figures”.

I love the idea that Bane is going to reveal the cover up about Harvey Dent being Two Face and that it will begin a revolution with the structure of Gotham City. Plus the back story to Bane being raised by Ra's Al Ghul creates a link between Bane and Bruce Wayne that will no doubt be exploited and explored. Be sure to catch an IMAX screening of Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol next month to see the prologue in all its glory!

Bret Mckenzie drops hints about a Conchords movie!

Since the second series of Flight Of The Conchords finished a couple of years ago, it has been Jemaine Clement who has seemingly had the better big screen career. He's picked up roles in the likes of Dinner For Schmucks, Gentlemen Broncos, Rio and the upcoming Men In Black 3.
However, the other half of the Conchords, Bret McKenzie, will appear in a small role in The Hobbit (he also appeared briefly in Lord of the Rings: Return of the King) and has also been promoting his work on The Muppets recently. And now? He's been hinting at the possibility of a Flight Of The Conchords movie.
Specifically, McKenzie stated the following whilst on red carpet duties: “We’re gonna try and do a movie. We just need a story.”
From that brief snippet of information it’s clear that we shouldn’t expect the movie any time soon. Not that the two are likely to be short of work. Clement will probably continue to get offered an array of wacky supporting roles. And there’s a strong chance that McKenzie could be an Academy Award winner in the Best Original Song category next year for The Muppets.

Gah, I hope that this happens. As brilliant as the tv show was, I felt that it could have gone at least another series and ending way before its time. I understand it was more of the fact that the second series was difficult for them to make due to them having to write all new songs and have stories around them. Heres hoping htat given enough time, they can make a strong, funny movie with all the charm of the series.

Arkham City Review

For the past month I have been playing the hell out of just one game, just one. Many other games are sat next to my tv, waiting, nay begging to be played and starting to feel jealous of my time spent with this one amazing game. That game is Arkham City.

There really is nothing else I can say in this review that hasn’t already been said by countless others in magazines, newpapers and on the internet. So all I am going to say is that Arkham City is the game to which all other super hero, hell even all other action games, should be judge against. It is a pinnacle of what a game should be. A fantastic story with amazing graphics and sound, absorbing gameplay and tons of replay value.

With over 440 Riddler trophies to collect, countless side quests, over 10 challenge maps with different goals per character and loads of other content. I won’t even begin to mention the extra DLC characters or upcoming challenge maps. The content in this game is staggering. It makes the previous game, Arkham Asylum, look like a test run for everything we have here.
Do yourself a favour, buy this game, kick back and immerse yourself in the stunning World of Arkham City.
