Last night Fox aired Spider-Man 2, with an added bonus. During the airing, Fox included interviews and clips promoting Spider-Man 3.Spoiler Warning:There is new footage, some extended clips from the trailers, and most importantly an official shot of Venom.
** No, I haven't seen Heroes yet, though not for lack of interest. Probably end up getting the Season One DVD and watching it when I retire, along with the many other movies and TV shows I've missed over the past couple of years. I did see The Prestige, though, and loved it. (Bought the novel, which I just started reading, mistakenly thinking it was by the Christopher Priest from comics.) Christopher Nolan is up there with M.

This may be part of a prearranged public slugfest, but Grant Morrison does make some interesting points.Guy will testify that I'm no fan of Morrison, but so far I like his take on Batman. And after reading the complete interview, I think I'm hooked for the run.NRAMA: But still, looking at the larger cultural subtext you're writing this in, what makes a grim Batman not appropriate for the world we live in now? Miller's working on a Batman vs. Al Qaeda story, and it's hard to…
