Why so serious you ask? Well, at the time of it’s cinema release The Dark Knight was the new IMDB #1 highest rated movie beating everything under the sun including The Godfather Parts 1, 2 and unsurprisingly 3.
Now that people in more counties have seen the movie it’s come down in it’s IMDB rating significantly so it’s now #3 overall. Considering the rave reviews it might be that Dark Knight is better suited to an American audience as to have almost a full point taken out by international cinema goers from it’s overall out of 10 score must indicate something.
Right now the current status on the sequel isn’t up to Warner Bros as in a current interview they stated that conversations regarding a third movie have not even taken place yet. Yet with the huge dollar signs floating above the Batman name right now a third movie appears to anything but impossible.

Bethesda’s take on the glorious Fallout series, Fallout 3 has been refused classification in Australia! The news has been confirmed by the guys at Internode, the consequences of which are that the game is effectively banned in the land of kangaroos.
Why the banning has taken place is currently unknown, although a pretty good guess will be violence. Screenshots of the game released over the months have pointed to some pretty messy violence (much like the first two games). The game is pretty violent and bloody as it is, but the famed “Bloody Mess” perk in the game makes it bloodier and messier. Bethesda had confirmed recently that it will be returning. Perhaps that is reason for refusing classification?
Sex is definitely played down in the game, as Bethesda had mentioned. The game will have mature themes, but not so much about sex as in Fallout 2. That pretty much leaves violence in…
The game will most probably be sent in for a re-evaluation after some modifications. Fallout 3 is just too big a property to not be released in Australia. Besides, we want Zero Punctuation to be review it!
