Someone's keeping Camille in the dark (while she's keeping them in a cell) on a new Stargate Universe
On Tuesday's new episode of Stargate Universe, Camille's got someone in holding, and she wants answers, the better to get in touch with their contacts on Earth via communication stones. But the prisoner isn't exactly, and what they are saying isn't the whole story.
OK, then. Interest piqued? Here's a clip.
The new episode of Stargate Universe, titled "The Greater Good", airs Tuesday (November 9) at 9:00 p.m./8:00 p.m. Central on SyFy.

Boondocks Season 3 DVD gets release date
At long last - according to Amazon.com, at least - we have a release date for the highly-anticipated DVD release of The Boondocks: The Complete Third Season.
Drumroll... November 9! Just 6 days from now.
Assuming Amazon is correct. They've estimated the date on this one once or twice, and subsequently postponed it - they could have been getting their information from the distributor, who isn't in direct communication with Adult Swim, or Aaron McGruder might be throwing in last-minute extras - these things are beyond my knowledge and control.
However, it seems very unlikely that they would finally post a release date, less than a week from today, without a great deal of confidence in its accuracy.
And Tuesdays are "new DVD release days" after all. And Wednesday is new comics, and Thursday we try and explain why we can't afford this month's rent.
Anyway, I pre-ordered back in June and I've just received an e-mail telling me to expect my DVD by November 12. You can place your order for the excellent third - and in all likelihood, final - season of the Boondocks on DVD here.

Typewriters?? A relic of days gone by surfaces on a new Sanctuary.
The upcoming episode of Sanctuary sees the discovery of what is believed to be an antique typewriter. However... (take it away SyFy):
It is actually deemed an auto-type and there were only five in existence, and this is the last one that remains. A distress call is being sent through the machine, but how or from whom if it’s the last one?
More importantly, does it play Farmville? Here's a sneak peek:
Sanctuary's latest episode, titled "Trail of Blood", airs Friday at 10:00 p.m./9:00 p.m. Central on SyFy.
The Dark Knight Rises’ Villain
Chris Nolan’s series of gritty Batman movies have been kept in a surprising shroud of secrecy- nobody knowing who the next villain will be until the film is basically released… and with the more recent confirmation that it will NOT be The Riddler- everyone is speculating on who it will and who it SHOULD be.

‘With Great Power: The Stan Lee Story’ screens Sunday in Santa Monica
For the general public, especially people over 35, if you ask them to name a comic-book creator, the most common answer by far will be Lee — and many of those respondents will be shocked if you inform them that the Marvel Comics standard-bearer made his mark as writer and editor, not as an artist. Lee, still a dynamo at age 87, has been a figure of fascination and controversy through the decades and that’s why there is considerable potential in a project such as “With Great Power: The Stan Lee Story,” the new documentary about the co-creator of Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, Thor and Iron Man.

Cops: 'Superheroes' brawl at Conn. parking garage
STAMFORD, Conn. -- It is assault charges for Spider-Man and Captain America, and breach of peace for Poison Ivy. Police in Connecticut said a man dressed as Captain America and another as Spider-Man have been arrested after getting into a fight in Stamford over the Halloween weekend.
Stamford Police Lt. Elizabeth Erickson said officers found 25-year-old Michael Sanchez, dressed as Captain America, beating the father of 21-year-old Vincent DeCarlo, sporting a Spider-Man costume, in a parking garage Sunday morning.
The Stamford Advocate reported that DeCarlo allegedly punched Sanchez of Stamford as police tried to break up the scuffle.
DeCarlo's girlfriend, 18-year-old Nicole Bitterli of Toms River, N.J., dressed as Poison Ivy, also hit Sanchez.
Sanchez and DeCarlo face assault charges. Bitterli faces a breach of peace charges.
It was unclear if any had attorneys.

The next Batman villain: 5 theories
It's not the Riddler, says Christopher Nolan of the antagonist in his second Batman sequel, tentatively titled "The Dark Knight Rises." Who will it be then?

Best Opinion: Escapist, Slash Film, HecklerSpray...
Christopher Nolan, the famously secretive director of The Dark Knight, has finally given fans a few scraps of information about the next movie in his Batman series. The film will be titled The Dark Knight Rises, and will be released in the summer of 2012. Nolan isn't offering any details on the plot, although he did tell the Los Angeles Times that the film's villain would not be the Riddler, the character played by Frank Gorshin in the campy 1960s TV series. He had already ruled out Mr. Freeze and the Penguin. So which of Batman's many nemeses will the director choose? Here are five theories:
Catwoman
Earlier this week, rumors were swirling that Nolan was auditioning actresses for a lead role in the movie. Speculation swiftly followed that Batman's rival this time might be Catwoman, the villain memorably played by Michelle Pfeiffer in Tim Burton's Batman Returns. "It's incredibly thin grounds to base a rumor on," says Logan Westbrook at Escapist, but "it's not hard to see how Catwoman might fit into the movie." A sexy criminal might seem "awfully appealing" to the Batman left alone at the end of The Dark Knight.
Killer Croc
Another rumor goes that Nolan will film The Dark Knight Rises in Louisiana early next year. The conventional wisdom says that's because of the state's generous tax breaks, but it could be because "a Killer Croc might be at home in Louisiana swamps," says Russ Fischer at Slash Film. The character — a deformed wrestler with "crocodilian abilities" — has never appeared in the Batman movies, but is a favorite of comic book fans. I don't think so, says Mof Gimmers at HecklerSpray. Mainly because Killer Croc is a horrible name for a villain.
Two-Face (again)
Two-Face, aka Harvey Dent, the badly-burned district attorney played by Aaron Eckhart in The Dark Knight, could be resurrected for the sequel, says Josh Wigler at MTV.com. The "rises" in the title could refer to Dent's return from the grave. It would need to be done "tastefully and respectfully," of course, but Eckhart has "expressed a willingness to return." I don't know, says Geoff Boucher at the Los Angeles Times. "Dent was plainly dead at the end of the last film," and Nolan doesn't go in for "super-science."
