Court of Owls to Rule a Darker Gotham in The Batman 2 Rumors

Rumors suggest The Batman Part II will introduce the Court of Owls as a darker, more domestic Gotham threat, with Sebastian Stan possibly playing Harvey Dent/Two-Face or Victor Zsasz and Brian Tyree Henry attached as Dent, while Scarlett Johansson’s role remains unconfirmed and Barry Keoghan’s Joker may linger in Arkham; the Court would be a sins-made-flesh foe rather than an invading force, signaling a bolder, grimmer sequel, though no official casting has been confirmed as production moves forward.

RayNeo Air 4 Pro: Budget AR Glasses Turn Switch 2 into a Pocket Cinema

RayNeo Air 4 Pro offers dual 1080p, 120Hz AR displays with B&O audio and USB-C hookup, making Switch 2 gaming feel like a big-screen experience. However, dock compatibility is limited (the tested JoyDock works with the original Switch, not Switch 2), the field of view is narrower (47° vs 58° on rival glasses), and the display is fixed rather than using a floating option. It’s cheaper—about half the price of Viture Beast XR—and includes Batman/Joker-themed variants for novelty. Overall, a portable big-screen option with several caveats compared to pricier rivals, best when you lack a TV and want a lower-cost solution.
