The Dark Knight Rises Full Trailer #1

Here it is, the first full trailer for this summer’s The Dark Knight Rises! I don’t know why, but seeing this in the theater last weekend didn’t get me as excited for the film as I thought it would. I’ve since rewatched it a few times and it’s definitely growing on me, but I’m not sold on Bane as the film’s main villain yet. Then again this could all be a rouse similar to Batman Begins. I’m still holding out hope we find out it is really Ra's al Ghul or the Riddler behind all these shenanigans. Either way, I know where I’ll be at midnight on my birthday next year! I have to believe this will be a fitting end to DC Comics' greatest trilogy. As I always like to say, “In Christopher Nolan We Trust.”

The Dark Knight Rises premieres in theaters worldwide on Friday, July 20, 2012.

The Avengers Movie Pop! Marvel Vinyl Figure Bobble Heads by Funko

The Blot got a really exciting email from Funko yesterday unveiling all of their tie-ins to this summer’s sure fire hit The Avengers! Funko’s The Avengers Movie Pop! Marvel Vinyl Figure Bobble Head Series includes Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, the Hulk and Nick Fury. These figures look awesome, and I can only hope this is just Wave 1 because I need me a Hawkeye Pop! Marvel figure something fierce.

Of the five figures seen here, the biggest surprise to me is the inclusion of Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury. I was half expecting a bobble head of Scarlet Johansson’s Black Widow instead, but the figure does look spot on! Plus, since this is the only new character in the wave I’ve got a strong feeling fans are going to be going crazy for him. Each The Avengers Pop! Marvel vinyl figure bobble head stands 3.75” tall, has a rotating head and comes in a displayable window box. Pick one up for $9.99 when these Avengers assemble in stores starting on May 4th, 2012.
