Fox just released a new featurette for their upcoming Batman prequel show “Gotham.” It contains some new footage. I’ve also included a bunch of screenshots from said footage.
Side Note * I quote a Nikki Finke Tweet – ABC Upfront: Kimmel on ‘Gotham’: “You know that part of the story so boring every Batman movie skips right over it? Now that’s a series.”
Funny! Certainly hope it doesn’t turn out to be true. You be the judge.

“Constantine” is based on a DC comic book called “Hellblazer.” In short, it’s about a demon hunter who lost his soul to hell and now travels around the country with the daughter of an old friend, who herself has abilities, and together they vanquish demons back to hell.

So what’s it like to be an audience member for the taping of a late night talk show? Well, let me tell you. For quite some time, I’ve meant to go see a live taping of “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson” but it was always one of those things that I put off because I could do it anytime. But as soon as Ferguson announced his plans to leave the show by the end of the year, that thing I kept putting off became a ‘now or never’ situation.

So as long as I’m on a prank call roll, I thought I’d throw one more in. This is probably my favorite prank call done by Richard Christy of the “Howard Stern Show” on SiriusXM. Richard and his comedy partner, Sal Governale, routinely do prank calls on the Stern Show. This one, though, has always stood out to me. I remember the first time that I heard it, I just couldn’t stop laughing. And I was amazed at the complexity of it. So once again, I present another prank call for your pleasure.
The comedian Jim Florentine is undoubtedly one of the best prank callers of all time. I’m sure everyone has their favorite prank call, but I’ve been reciting this one with a good friend of mine for years now and it shows no signs of slowing. It just never gets old. I present it here for your audio pleasure. I’ve also included a PDF of the transcript for this call. Enjoy!
Here is the new “A Million Ways to Die in the West” Red Band Trailer. I hope the film is as entertaining as the trailers I have seen for it. If it’s anything like “Ted” I have faith.

The Batman prequel series “Gotham” has been picked up for a series order. The story follows young Jim Gordon’s days on the Gotham police force years before Batman arrived on the scene. In the series, Bruce Wayne is still a child who has just witnessed the murder of his parents. And a lot of bad guys are going to wish that event didn’t happen when he grows up. We get younger versions of The Riddler, The Penguin, Catwoman, etc… I’m not usually a fan of prequels because they just tend to spin their wheels until the more interesting part of the story comes along years later. I very much enjoyed “Smallville,” but quite frankly, I just wanted to see Clark Kent become Superman. Which he finally did ten years later for all of about two minutes. But I am going to check this out. And unless they do a time jump, Bruce Wayne will obviously never become Batman in the series (for which I doubt the feature film division will allow). But hopefully the series can stand on it’s own two legs and show us a more interesting part of Gotham City other than its Dark Knight.
