Well folks, I got it confirmed today that Paul Dini will indeed be writing the next BATMAN movie. Not only that, but Bruce Timm and Paul Dini will also be producing!

Is this our dreams come true?

Not quite. While WARNERS is certainly showing signs of coolness (ie MATRIX) they have not yet passed into the ubercoolness realm that we Geeks click our heels and wish for.

The next BATMAN feature will be direct to video, and it will be a huge animated BATMAN BEYOND extravaganza. The target release date will be for late 2000. So folks, for me that's exciting as hell simply because... well I love the animated series, I love the work that Paul Dini and Bruce Timm do, and if the perfect incarnation of Batman is to be in an animated form.... then so be it. I just wish they (Warners) would open their eyes and see that perfection is right in their grasps for the huge payoff.... Sigh...

The plotline is not yet known, but you can be guaranteed that Glen and Coaxial will be on the case for sure!
