- Two-Face, as played by Aaron Eckhart in The Dark Knight Returns, has been revealed, as posted by figures.com. I must say... it's pretty disgusting. Keep in mind that Harvey Dent's face is burned with acid, so this seems...fairly believable, I'd say.- It's the Spirit of Christmas. It's been announced that Frank Miller's rendition of Will Eisner's The Spirit has been pushed up from January 13, to Christmas; THIS year.
The movie features Gabriel Macht, Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson, Eva Mendes, Sarah Paulson, Stana Katic, Dan Lauria, Jaime King, Paz Vega and Louis Lombardi.
A lot of fans are looking forward to this movie, but there are a lot of detractors too, who don't like the changes Miller is making from Eisner's work. Those are always legitimate causes for concern, but I'll reserve judgment until the movie is released. After all, look at all the grand changes made to Spider-Man and Batman...

- It's the Age of the Avengers. Marvel is already making sure Iron Man 2 goes into development as soon as possible, right after the uber-success of the Iron Man movie that was just released last week.
Iron Man 2 already has a release date of April 30, 2010. But that's not all. Surprisingly, 3 other Avengers-related movies have release dates. Thor is scheduled for release right after Iron Man 2, on June 4th. Captain America (or as the article names it, 'The First Avenger: Captain America') is scheduled for May 6, 2011. Finally, The Avengers is scheduled for an unspecified day in July, 2011.
I had no idea any of these movies were that close to being made or in development. You hear the occasional mention sometimes of Captain America, and Thor was mentioned some yonks ago. But now it sounds Marvel wants these things rolled into high gear fast. Stay tuned...

- id Software has revealed they have begun development on Doom 4. And they are looking for new workers.
"Doom is part of the id Software DNA and demands the greatest talent and brightest minds in the industry to bring the next installment of our flagship franchise to Earth... It's critical for id Software to have the best creative minds in-house to develop games that meet the standards synonymous with our titles", stated id CEO Todd Hollenshead.
Nothing else has been stated about the game, but it's at least official that the game is in development. Expect the game to be on PC, of course, and I'd assume 360. Will Sony get Doomage too, and have it on the PS3?
