The Batcave is once again showing signs of life, while a hot killer nun in a skimpy outfit is set to assault cineplexes, we know what Robin and his team will be up to for the next four weeks and what could be wrong with good ol' boys and strip clubs? Not a darned thing!

BATMAN BEGINS 2

According to Empire Online, director Christopher Nolan talked about his meeting with Warner Brothers exec Jeff Robinov. "I have marched into his office and I have told him what David Goyer and I think the story is, and they seem to like it a lot. I think the success of Batman Begins, in my terms, in it being a film that I wanted it to be, is very much due to a collaboration with the studio. It wasn't really one or the other telling the other what it should be, so I think he's poking fun."

Meanwhile, Batman-On-Film has a tidbit about Nolan and Goyer time commitments, a rumored release date (June 20, 2008), and signing up any prospective actors for the Joker and Harvey Dent for nothing less than a two picture deal.

MAGDALENA

According to this press release, "producers Scott Mitchell Rosenberg, chairman of Platinum Studios ... and Gale Anne Hurd ... announced today that they are developing Top Cow's spiritually themed comic book character 'Magdalena' as a feature film. Kevin Taft, who recently signed a writing deal for New Line Cinema's 'Alone,' has been tapped to pen the script."

TEEN TITANSComics Continuum has an update on the next four new episodes of the hit Cartoon Network series, with episode descriptions and titles.

SMALLVILLE

Kryptonsite has a trio of things to share today, including a new network description of the "Dukes of Hazzard" reunion episode "Exposed," photos which show both the reunited actors and a lot of Erica Durance and fresh spoilers showing the title for a January episode, the season's eleventh.
