I just saw this on the Aggressive Comix facebook page. It kind of excites although it’s clearly not real! Considering that there’s the upcoming Superman films (produced by Nolan, himself), a Nightwing sequel could actually be a very clever idea bring the Superman and Batman films together - his original debut and invention was inspired by the Superman comics and later in adventures with Batman and Robin prior to Dick Grayson actually changing from Robin to Nightwing himself. Lots of technicalities and a couple of loopholes - one being that tying in Gotham’s setting (real world) with Krypton’s (not real) would be close to impossinble - but I reckon Nolan’s genius could actually pull it off. All cleverly put together too. JGL would need to bulk up quite considerably though. He kind of looks a bit teeny in that suit at the moment. Likelihood is, it won’t happen but if it does, I want an invite to the premier for predicting it!!

Midnight in Paris

Adriana: I can never decide whether Paris is more beautiful by day or by night.

Gil: No, you can’t, you couldn’t pick one. I mean I can give you a checkmate argument for each side. You know, I sometimes think, how is anyone ever gonna come up with a book, or a painting, or a symphony, or a a sculpture that can compete with a great city. You can’t. Because you look around and every street, every boulevard, is its own special art form and when you think that in the cold, violent, meaningless universe that Paris exists, these lights, I mean come on, there’s nothing happening on Jupiter or Neptune, but from way out in space you can see these lights, the cafés, people drinking and singing. For all we know, Paris is the hottest spot in the universe.
