Things We Saw Today: The Dark Knight Rises Composer Dedicates New Song to Help Raise Money for Aurora Shooting Victims

by Alanna Bennett | 5:00 pm, July 27th, 2012

Another day, another heart-warming response from the Dark Knight Rises team in the wake of the Aurora shooting. This time it’s legendary film composer Hans Zimmer, who scored the trilogy, who has composed a song for those affected by the tragedy:

“‘Aurora’ is dedicated to those who lost their lives and were affected by the tragedy in Aurora, Colorado. I recorded this song in London in the days following the tragedy as a heartfelt tribute to the victims and their families. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to Aurora Victim Relief organization.”

You can listen to the song and donate to the cause here. (via MTV)

Things We Saw Today: Catwoman Breaking The Bat With Her Really Sharp Heel

HOLY HEEL, BATMAN! We’ve been seeing a lot of official images from The Dark Knight Rises being released this past week and although we’ve discussed at length how ridiculous it is for poor Anne Hathaway’s Catwoman to be in stilettos in Christopher Nolan’s utilitarian universe, I admit to loving this image. Apparently one of the previous posters had a QR code attached which led to this secret one being revealed on the TDKR website. At least there’s no question they’ll be used as weapons in the film now.

Can A 3-Year-Old Sing The Periodic Table Of Elements Song?

by Jill Pantozzi | 5:59 pm, April 15th, 2012

Ok, so little Rose’s song may require subtitles both for her gibberish and the real lyrics but she still one-ups me when it come to singing Tom Lehrer’s “The Elements.” The video is about a year old now but her dad says she’s still interested in the periodic table (mostly because of the song) and writes, “She likes the video of Daniel Radcliffe singing it, and the one where two older girls sing a Japanese version.”

And that‘s just the partial chemical content of salt and baking powder. These cupcakes were created for a reception at somebody’s chemical engineering department. Dibs on Polonium, it’s got my name in it!
