It was an immersive 24 hour event giving fans an inside look at their various movies, TV series, and games in development. I wanted to look at a few of their highly anticipated movies and provide a few of the trailers, teases, and images that made the event a huge success.

MY DEFINITIVE RANKING OF BATMAN ON THE BIG SCREEN Batman is making another return to the big screen this weekend with Zach Snyder’s Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. This is the second film in DC Comics’ larger Justice League universe. The Caped Crusader is my all-time favorite superhero. I even donned the cape and cowl for Halloween one year when I was a kid.

We’ve seen a variety of Oscar winners, villains, styles, themes, bat logos, and nipples in the eight movies that have come before. Let’sRead More →
