I could think of no more appropriate response to the tragedy in Colorado than by sharing what director Christopher Nolan posted on "The Dark Knight Rises" Facebook page.

 

"Speaking on behalf of the cast and crew of The Dark Knight Rises, I would like to express our profound sorrow at the senseless tragedy that has befallen the entire Aurora community.

I would not presume to know anything about the victims of the shooting but that they were there last night to watch a movie. I believe movies are one of the great American art forms and the shared experience of watching a story unfold on screen is an important and joyful pastime.

The movie theatre is my home, and the idea that someone would violate that innocent and hopeful place in such an unbearably savage way is devastating to me.

Nothing any of us can say could ever adequately express our feelings for the innocent victims of this appalling crime, but our thoughts are with them and their families."

Warner Bros. released a teaser trailer for next year's blockbuster movie event "The Man of Steel". I don't know if this is by accident or design, but the movie's star Henry Cavill bears a striking resemblance to "Smallville" star Tom Welling.

 

 

 

 

                                                                         

 

 

    One of the best shows on televison, Syfy's Alpha's has returned for a second season which promises to be even better than last season, and for anyone who hasn't seen this show, that will be quite an achievement. I highly recommend this show.
