So it turns out that we don't have to feel guilty about loving those super-violent action movies anymore, as research shows they may actually prevent, rather than encourage, real-world violence. 
Read it here, in Foreign Policy:  "violent movies deter almost 1,000 assaults on an average weekend in the United States".

Good news for me, since my romantic Valentines Day viewing was Punisher: War Zone, and I wasn't planning on going on a killing spree anytime soon...

Either that or we'd all have to scream our fool heads off in anticipation. When is this movie coming out again? Oh, yeah. Next summer. Peppered with shots from Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, watch the video after the jump for a little bit of Dickie Edlund.
