Scooby-Doo To Meet Batman Again On ‘The Brave and the Bold’

Brave and the Bold - Batman and Scooby-Doo

I've been eying this Scooby-Doo Meets Batman DVD for weeks since I saw the price drop to only $5. One of my favorite things about the Scooby-Doo cartoon series was all the famous guest stars, so it was a real treat for me when the Scooby gang teamed up with Batman and Robin back in the 1970s.

Now, they'll all be teaming up again for an episode of Batman: The Brave and the Bold, called "Batman's Strangest Cases," which will air on Friday, April 1 (6:30/5:30c) on Cartoon Network.

Paul Reubens ("Pee-wee Herman") will host the episode, written by comics superstar Paul Dini, and will reprise his role as Bat-Mite [...]

‘Prey 2′ Announced By Bethesda Softworks For 2012 Release

Posted: 14 Mar 2011 04:16 PM PDT



Bethesda Softworks has announced that a sequel to the 2006 video game, Prey, is in the works and will be released some time in 2012.

The original game followed a Native American called Tommy who, along with his girlfriend and grandfather, is abducted by aliens who bring them into a nightmarish ship where humans are apparently being harvested by the extraterrestrials. Tommy then has to navigate his way through the ship, often needing to work with strange portals and gravitational belts, trying to find and save them.

Prey 2 will be developed by the same team that made the original, Human Head Studios, and much like the first game used id Software's id Tech 4 engine, the sequel will be built using id's brand new engine.

Of the announcement, project lead Chris Rhinehart said "we are thrilled to be working with Bethesda on Prey 2. Prey 2 will provide gamers the opportunity to explore a new facet of the Prey universe, one that offers fast-paced action in an open, alien world. We're excited to show gamers the title we have been working on and hope they will be as excited by this title as we are." [...]

Doctor Who - Buffy

Here's a bit of fun for Doctor Who fans, and Buffy The Vampire Slayer fans as well. Punkocarp has posted to YouTube a nice mashup of the two -- it's a Doctor Who opening sequence, but done in the style of the Buffy series. I'm a big fan of opening sequence mashups, and have enjoyed the Star Wars ones that have floated about the web, and I have to say that I was pretty impressed with this one.

The clips selected for the sequence are well chosen as well. They fit the style of the Buffy opener, and also included are a couple of little snippets from the upcoming Doctor Who series as well. Check out the video [...]
