THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS - Peter Weller Announced as Voice of Bruce Wayne / Batman in the New Animated Movie!

DC Entertainment just announced recently that Actor Peter Weller will play the voice of "Bruce Wayne/Batman" in the next DC Animated Film, THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS. ( Please be sure to check out the post we did yesterday that featured more news & awesome sneak-peek photos ). OK, some of you might be thinking, "Hey, I know that name". Yes you do, this is the guy who played "Robocop" many years ago, a cult-movie favorite! 

It's also kinda weird that Frank Miller wrote the original ROBOCOP script AND this animation is based on his classic Batman Graphic Novel. Anyways, I like this Actor a lot and he has a great voice. I think he'll do a pretty good job, we'll have to wait and see.

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES + Mountain Dew = Cool Batman Movie Promo!

Warner Bros and DC Entertainment are teaming-up with the makers of Mountain Dew to promote THE DARK KNIGHT RISES Batman Movie! They are going to feature cool artwork on 2 products: Regular Mountain Dew and a new flavor, Dark Berry. ( I read somewhere that "Dark Berry" will have about 100 less calories ). Now, if I have my info correct, there will be both Plastic Soda Bottles AND Aluminum Cans with these graphics. You can also see a "12-Pack Box" with some beautiful artwork in another photo. I've also heard rumors of some totally crazy "Store Display" items so that will be something to keep an eye out for! Hey, If anyone sees something like that then please let us know.

Whoops, almost forgot to mention! Mountain Dew has created a website for this event, which is up right now, but nothing there really happens until June 18th. Here's a LINK!  Also, Stay tuned to the BAT-BLOG.COM and we'll keep ya posted.
