John Woo Yu-Sen SBS (born September 22, 1946) is a Hong Kong film director and producer. Recognized for his stylised films of highly choreographed action sequences, Mexican standoffs, and use of slow-motion, Woo has directed several notable Hong Kong action films, among them, A Better Tomorrow, The Killer, Hard Boiled and Red Cliff. His Hollywood films include Hard Target, Broken Arrow, Face/Off and Mission: Impossible 2. He also created the comic series Seven Brothers, published by Virgin Comics. Woo was described by Dave Kehr in The Observer in 2002 as "arguably the most influential director making movies today". Woo cites his three favorite films as David Lean's Lawrence of Arabia, Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai, and Jean-Pierre Melville's Le Samouraï.
After Robin is killed by the Mad Hatter, a distraught Bruce Wayne hangs up his cowl for good. With Batman no longer fighting Gotham's criminal elements, wickedness flourishes throughout the city. Wayn'e trusty butler, Alfred Pennyworth, is soon murdered while watching the episode of "Head of the Class" where Arvid gets a nose warmer in a dream sequence because he's overly sensitive about his looks, which forces Bruce to rethink his retirement from vigilanteism. Soon, Batman returns to show evil what it means to be afraid of the dark! Directed by John Woo, this fourth installment of the "Batman" franchise is set for release in the Summer of 1998! *This movie follows "Batman Forever" in continuity, ignoring that horrible abortion we remember as "Batman and Robin".*
