In this week's Ketchup, we're treated to a bunch of Dark Knight pics, as well as news of Anthony Michael Hall's role, and Alien vs. Predator 2 gets a new name. Also, Jessica Biel under contract to reveal, and The Golden Compass stirs the pot of controversy. Read on!

This week's most popular news:

A Great Big Eyeful of Dark Knight Images!
Howdy, Bat-fans! Excited for The Dark Knight yet? Of course you are, and IESB knows it -- which is why they've posted a slew ("slew" being, in this case, a fancy way of saying "19") of images from the film!

Anthony Michael Hall's The Dark Knight Role Revealed?

Alien vs. Predator 2 Gets Snazzy New Title
In a move that is certain to make millions of moviegoers more excited about seeing the film, 20th Century Fox has announced that it's changing the title of Alien vs. Predator 2 to Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem.

The Golden Compass Pointing Toward Controversy?
Magic-loving moviegoers who have thrilled to the twists and turns of such tween-friendly literary adaptations as The Chronicles of Narnia and the Harry Potter series will have their pick of sorcerous films this fall, including The Seeker: The Dark Is Rising and The Golden Compass. Plenty of controversy, too, if the past is any indication -- and oh look, here's some already!

Jessica Biel Strips Down for Powder Blue
We've heard plenty on no-nudity contracts, but this is one of those rare instances of reports on the exact opposite. Jessica Biel has signed a contract that specifically states (down to some rather exact details) how much she will bare for her next movie, Powder Blue.

Stopping Power could be good, besides that there's nothing really worth while.

Rachel McAdams is in another movie. Cool; I've been a fan ever since I first saw Red Eye.

Also, that Jessica Biel picture sure is getting a lot of love in these news stories. "We need a picture of Jessica Biel for a news story? Well let's just fall back on the good old Jessica-Biel-as-a-cat picture!" As if no other pictures of her are available.

the dark knight teaser sucked..... i shouldn't get too worked out though.... most teasers suck.... the actual trailer should be good.... and the actual movie should be excellent.. as i am hoping.... let's hope this does not have a really good 2, then screw up at 3 like x-men, spider-man, batman, etc.

and for AVP...... the first one sucked so badly, so i do not see the point in a sequel, decent name though.... but you never know, this could turn out to be a piece of art that will be remembered as movie history.... probably not but you know......
