We recently announced a special one day showing of the soon to be released animated movie BATMAN: THE KILLING JOKE at theaters across the United States by Fathom Events before its consumer video release (DVD / BLU-RAY / DIGITAL HD) from DC Entertainment and Warner Brothers Home Entertainment. Well due to unprecedented fan demand to see the show on the big screen, Fathom Events has added a second date providing for two additional show times.

THE SECRET LIFE OF PETS story revolves around a Manhattan apartment building where a dog named Max has his life as a favorite
pet turned upside down when his owner brings home a sloppy mongrel
named Duke. Max and Duke have to put their quarrels behind them though when they find out
that an adorable white bunny named Snowball is building an army of
abandoned pets determined to take revenge on all the happy-owned pets and
their owners in their building.
Comedy superstars Louis C.K., Eric Stonestreet and Kevin Hart make their
animated feature-film debuts in The Secret Life of Pets, which co-stars

Daurio and Brian Lynch.
To highlight himself as a super fan and promote his twitter feed, cartoonist George Folz kicked off his "Darth Days" campaign on New Years Day with the goal of drawing and tweeting out a new Star Wars illustration from the beginning of the year until Episode VII is released in theaters on December 18, 2015. You can follow along and look for his drawings at @GeorgeJurard on twitter. Here's a look at his most recent post that he tweeted out today:
Star Wars fans who want a fun way to count down the days until the next movie debuts should give George Folz a follow and keep an eye out for his original artwork (like the Tatooine Dusk above and Jabba's Slave Girl below) as he tweets his illustrations that pay homage to the artistic vision of another George with the last name of Lucas.
