Superhero Bits: The Dark Knight Rises, Youngblood, V for Vendetta, The Avengers, Amazing Spider-Man

Will we ever see a Youngblood movie? Want to read Gary Oldman's cryptic description of a scene in The Dark Knight Rises? What's the deal with Marvel, Ghost Rider and lawsuits? Is there a connection between Beyond Watchmen and a famous Internet photo? Has Alan Moore embraced the real life symbolism from V for Vendetta?

Tom Hardy spoke to MTV about Bane's voice in The Dark Knight Rises. He's not worried and has watched some of the jokey videos about it.

Gary Oldman was at a Q&A (via Collider) and hinted at a very emotional Alfred scene in The Dark Knight Rises:

Watching Michael Caine work, as Alfred, was a great lesson for me. Just focus, concentration. He has this emotional scene. I'm kidding you not. It was tears and the whole thing. And it's 'Take 1.' (Oldman snaps his fingers) He got it. 'Take 2? (snaps his fingers again), Got it. Take 3 (snaps his fingers) Got it. He's just on the money. Every single time. It's just extraordinary… You get inspired by it.
