This is a weird one…
Batman News is reporting that HitFix are claiming Warner Brothers have a strict “No jokes” policy on their movies.
Now, we’re not exactly sure what this means. No gags, no “Holy rusted metal, Batman!”? Well, that’s fair enough but how far would such a thing go? After all, no matter how bleak or serious something is, there’s always room for a giggle. In fact sometimes it’s essential.
Interestingly, the article got the attention of Seth Rogan who quickly said it was nonsense:
@SethRogan Tweeted: @slashfilm @russfischer this is bulls@#t.
He then added: @slashfilm @russfischer by that I mean it’s not true.
So, is this just mad reporting, a wind up or have DC decided to put the chuckle officers on their new franchise? Hard to know…

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
