Watch A Strange And Tense ‘Black Swan’ Music Video By Russ Fischer/Nov. 22, 2010 9:53 pm EST I like the small trend of creating music videos that act as trailers. It’s hardly a new idea, but we’ve recently seen one for Tron Legacy, and now there’s one for Black Swan.

‘Starring Adam West’ Trailer: The Life And Times Of A Superhero Icon By Angie Han/Sept. 4, 2014 6:00 am EST There’s a funny scene in Neighbors where two drunk dudes argue about which actor is the definitive Batman.

And in the future, for kids even younger than that, it could very well become Ben Affleck going up against Henry Cavill in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice....
