The Dark Knight is coming…

You didn’t need us to tell you that. The minute the last Batman movie ended you were wondering when the next one would be coming. Who would be the next super-villain?

For Your Consideration…The Death of Yogi

This weekend marks the release of the new Yogi Bear movie.  A longtime favorite for kids of all ages, this is one of those inexpensive animated ventures that meshes live action with 3-D animation.  The advertising budget (kept under wraps) is probably higher than production costs.
