Explosive New Trailer for ‘The Batman’ Goes From Frisky to Fiery

Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle in The Batman.

There are only so many stories that Batman fits into, right? Actually, with its art deco, industrial setting, there are any number of social ills and political spills to feed an endless line of narratives. From Depression-era roots to current hollowed-out industrial cores, the scene remains the same for any number of stubbled actors looking to play the brooding Bat. And with only a couple of noted stumbles, Warner Bros.' Batman franchise holds up a high standard. The studio will look again look to the Dark Knight with the latest entry, The Batman.

sling tv cyber monday deal 2020

If you've been able to make it back to your parent's house this holiday, there's one comforting thing that they always have on hand. Yes, great food, but besides that, cable. With younger generations turning to streaming services for their entertainment (Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, HBO to name a few), it's hard to justify the bill for your cable subscription. But suppose you long for the good old days of cable. In that case, Sling is offering a fantastic Cyber Monday deal
where you can buy one month of the streaming service and get one month entirely for free. That means all the device versatility of streaming with all the choice of cable. We also have plenty of other fantastic Cyber Monday streaming deals such as this Hulu Cyber Monday deal available right now that gets you Hulu for a year for under $25.

If you foresee yourself hunkered down on the couch for the next couple of months (which many of us do), this is a Cyber Monday sale that you can't pass up. Sling is already a great value at only $30 per month. Now, with this deal, you're getting two months at half the price! That's over 50 channels and thousands of movies for only $15 a month for the first two months! If you need it broken down further, that's 30 cents a channel!
How does Sling TV work?
The great thing about Sling is, the company takes all the good cable channels and bundles them up, getting rid of all the filler. The way it works is this. There's a Blue and an Orange package. Both packages come with no contracts and ten hours of free DRV.
