Dueling studios keep Caped Crusaders at bay
Riddle me this, Batman faithful: Have you ever wondered why the Caped Crusaders from the classic '60s TV show haven't put their "BIFF." "BAM" and "BOPs" on the DVD racks?
The July 16 edition of Entertainment Weekly tackled that question and found a battle over ownership rights between Fox Home Entertainment and Warner Bros. Until they reach an agreement, it's "holy idle time" for Batman, Robin and yes, even the original Catwoman.

Matt Damon — on why he returned to do the sequel "The Bourne Supremacy," which opens Friday:
"I hadn't been offered a movie in a year because 'The Legend of Bagger Vance' had come out and bombed, and 'All the Pretty Horses' had come out and bombed.
