Another day, another quote fromCaptain America: The First AvengerscreenwritersChristopher MarkusandStephen McFeelyabout the inevitable sequel. Guess what? It’s going to be in the present, according toCinema Blend:
In the sequel he’s sort of back where he was when he was a scrawny kid, which is a man with no home. The one home he found was 70 years ago. That is always a fun thing to have in the back of your head, and also the fact that there’s so many great villains and storylines that you can’t cram into one, so you keep a side pile of like, ‘Oh, that guy’s going in the sequel.’
Coming Soonhas posted this photo and the full specs of theBatman: Arkham City Collectors Edition, a must have for any Batman fans because of all the cool stuff that’s in there. I’ve never been a “Collectors Edition Video Game” guy but maybe that’s just me.
