The countdown to THE DARK KNIGHT RISES, the highly anticipated third entry in Chris Nolan’s Batman trilogy, kicked off today with a new new site, which thus far contains ominous chanting.

The war between cars and wrestlers has claimed another victim. Randall “Randy Savage” Poffo, who thrilled the wrestling world with his hysterical rumblings and grumblings as Macho Man, died in a car crash this morning at age 58. He reportedly suffered a heart attack while behind the wheel, and veered across traffic into a tree. His wife of one year was also in the vehicle but was not seriously injured.
