BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Batman Solo Film Coming in 2019?

We've got the rundown that Batman will return with a solo project.

With the first Batman/Superman film given a title earlier this month, DC and Warner Bros surprised many people when an outlet leaked what appeared to be a very ambitious schedule of superhero films lasting through 2018. Films like a Flash/Green Lantern team up and a Shazam origin story are planned to join the ranks of pre-planned films like Sandman. News also broke recently of Jason Momoa signing on to play Aquaman, who could appear in Dawn of Justice.

For many, the lack of a standalone Batman film wasn't surprising, as CHristopher Nolan's Batman series is arguably the best interpretation of the Caped Crusader. But don't be so sure that DC/WB think so. According to Latino Review, the companies are planning another film with a 2019 release, with the working title of The Batman.

On paper, this announcement seems to make sense, as Batman actor Ben Affleck will write, direct, and star in his next film Live By Night, which will begin shooting during summer 2015. With a final release date of October 7, 2016 that means Affleck's schedule will be freed up for a significant period so that he can shoot a Batman sequel.

With such an ambitious production schedule on WB's part, it seems unlikely that a Batman sequel could be made any time before 2017 - if that schedule should fall on hard times, we could see the movie delayed until 2020. Still the idea of DC/WB thinking ahead is smart and shows that their slumber after The Avengers was time well spent.

What do you think of this latest rumor? Is 2019 too long to wait for another Batman movie? What villain do you want to see Ben Affleck take on as the Dark Knight?

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim
