    Adult Swim pulled a genius April Fool's prank. Instead of the usual Saturday night anime, we got a flashback to the Cartoon Network of yesteryear and were treated to Toonami. The only anime they didn't preempt was "Bleach". We were treated to old faves like "Dragonball Z", "Gundam Wing", "Tenchi Muyo", and others that they no longer air. My seventeen year old received a text from one of his friends excitedly telling him that Toonami had returned. The realization that it was April Fool's Day and that this was a prank was not well received by many elated fans of Toonami. Especially when those same fans are quite miffed that Cartoon Network has almost become a misnomer. Nice one.
 
 
 
 
                                                                    
 
 
 
     Cartoon Network has released details of the new animated show " Beware the Batman". Warner Bros. Animation has produced a new "Batman series" featuring cutting-edge CGI and new style of Batman story that features classic Batman rogues, as well as, new villains never before seen in a Batman animated series. We'll also be treated to an Alfred that is a former secret agent and a different type of sidekick in a sword-wielding teenager named Katana.The show will be executive produced by WB Animation's Sam Register and will also have Glen Murakami ("Batman Beyond", "Teen Titans") and Mitch Watson ( "Scooby Doo! Mystery Incorporated") as producers.
 
 
 
 
                                                                  
 
 
 
      
    Sony Pictures released a trailer for the remake of "Total Recall" starring Colin Farrell, Bokeem Woodbine, Bryan Cranston, Kate Beckinsale, and Jessica Biel. People who were concerned about a "Total Recall" that didn't take place on Mars need not worry. This trailer will put your fears to rest.
