[Avitus1]

Looks cool from what I can see of it... cant wait for a clear version.

[The Red Hood]

Oh I am sure it will be out soon look what happened to the Cloverfield trailer

[leemajors]

Looks cool from what I can see of it... cant wait for a clear version.
there's nothing to see?

[mardigan]

It doesnt even show anything, but thanks anyway

[The Red Hood]

It doesnt even show anything, but thanks anyway

It's a teaser

[PM5K]

That's why it's a teaser and not a trailer..

You do get to hear the joker, and his laugh...

[The Red Hood]

That's why it's a teaser and not a trailer..
Exactly it is supposed to tease you not show a lot of scenes from the movie like a trailer plus it did show something if it didn't then you would not have saw anything but if you look very closely you can see the batman symbol and words saying The Dark Knight Summer 2008

[JMarkJohns]

There's a shitload of "teasers" on youtube for The Dark Knight. Most look fake, but some look interesting...

[T Park]

it just goes to some superhero website and theres no mention of of Dark Knight on it....

[Trainwreck2100]

click where it says youtube

[Tim Donaghy]

I bet this movie is gonna suck

[T Park]

Now on youtube its an obvious bootleg job from the movies as the idiot moves around, you can't hear what Joker is saying either.

You go to

www.thedarkknight.com and it shows the bat symbol, but if you click on it, all that comes up, is like a campaign sign, we believe in Harvey Dent.

Strange.

that's cause the teaser won't officially be released until Friday.

Aaron Eckart is going to be a bad ass Two Face

Yeah that has been out for a while now :lol I'm guessing you never saw the defaced Harvey Dent campaign poster by the Joker
the actual teaser will be out tomorrow but the trailer will be out in December my guess with 'I Am Legend'
now WB removed the teaser from youtube

[E20]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=slVtOl2VcPQ

There is a teaser, it uses clips from Batman Begins, but at the end they show a Joker character, that seems authentic enough. It is fan made. Pretty sweet. The Dark Knight is making my CHODE EXPLODE I CAN"T WAIT FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!

[The Red Hood]

Just like http://ibelieveinharveydent.com and http://ibelieveinharveydenttoo.com their is another Joker marketing site http://www.whysoserious.com/ SHH says it leads to the san diego comic con http://www.superherohype.com/news/topnews.php?id=6072

[The Red Hood]

Well I think it's safe to say that the Joker will be one BAD ASS MOTHER FUCKER!

If you call 1-800-395-9646 apparently Joker's got a hostage and has him reading a statement to you they are starting to go all out with the marketing for this and its not even close to coming out

[E20]

I'm gonna rewatch Batman Begins.

[E20]

I couldn't even watch that shit. I watched half of it when Alfred said: "Some people just want to see the world burn", then it cut off. :pctoss It looks sick.

[peewee's lovechild]

Not much showing in the teaser, but the Joker's laugh is sweet.

This movie will brutally rape all other movies.

[PM5K]

Right click, save target as,wait, wait, wait, open...

[E20]

Right click, save target as,wait, wait, wait, open...
That's what I did. It was supposed to be 72MB, but mine finished at 39, so it's obviously corrupt or something went wrong.

[The Red Hood]

Right click, save target as,wait, wait, wait, open...

No don't do that I along with some other people tried that and it cuts off with a green screen and static right when the Joker is about to talk

Here try this

http://www.whysoserious.com/ just click on the little square above smiles and the trailer will play automatically you can even download it there :tu :tu

[The Red Hood]

Check this out they filmed one of the biggest stunts in Chicago last night props to Nolan and crew for actually doing the stunts and not resorting to over the top cgi :clap

Just click play and be patient

Here's a link to an article that has a picture of the Joker.

He looks fucking wicked.

http://www.darkhorizons.com/news07/070727k.php

[jaffies]

This thing is HUGE. I got to see some filming downtown on Wacker and then again on Dearborn but couldn't get close enough to see what scene was being filmed. I did get to see several GPD squad cars, a chopper in the sky (most likely for aerial shots), literally hundreds of extras, and the coolest thing by far is getting to see the bat signal against the sky on a few nights.

Needles to say this is not the completed Joker I heard from a very reliable source that he will morph into the Joker through out the movie

FUCKING A!!!!!!!!!!!

I should have done that.

He looks fucking wicked there.

This movie is going to brutally ass rape everyone!!!!!!!

No, I was concentrating on the links to the teaser and when I saw the picture of Kat von D, I just scrolled to the bottom to avoid some of the long as sigs some people have.

I totally missed.

It's a sweet pic though.

I hear that Marvel is all pissed because The Joker literally stole the show everyone was paying attention to his little scavenger hunt and completely ignoring the Iron Man panel at Comic Con in SD :lol

[peewee's lovechild]

I'm sure I'm going to love the Iron Man movie, but it's got nothing on The Dark Night.

Fuck TDN is going to have The Joker, Two Face, The Scarecrow, and . . . . Eric Roberts as the new mafia/crime syndicate boss.

Fuck, this movie is just going to blow everything away.

Dude you right up my alley with all the info on casting you forgot about Anthony Michael Hall as ? The Riddler maybe and yes Eric Roberts as Sal Moroni is going to kick ass and of course you can't forget about Cillian Murphy as Scarecrow

[The Red Hood]

Here is the Dead clown pic apparently the Joker will do something to Gotham around December/Christmas that will cause a mass evacuation
http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/5319/3511jsr99jf8.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

now some of the info I have received is all starting to add up possible Spoilerish info below

Due to his mansion burning down in BB Bruce Wayne will be moving to downtown Gotham to live in a penthouse possibly the Hotel that he bought in Begins his temporarily "batcave" will be in an underground parking lot below or near his Hotel/penthouse

Apparently Bruce throws a big party at his penthouse around December reports have said that he had his place decorated in Christmas Lights

Harvey Dent, Rachel Dawes, and other high profile people in Gotham will be their and guess who crashes the party and kidnaps Rachael after putting up a good fight with Batman non other than the Joker himself

Reports have also said that they have filmed an evacuation scene in Chicago with people running and screaming

The Joker will defiantly "play games" with Batman, Dent, Gordan and the Police
their will be several yachts filled with people, the police and Batman will have to figure out which yacht the Joker will blow up so apparently the good guys decide on a yacht that they think the joker will blow up they evacuate the citizens from one of the yachts thinking it will explode but then Joker pulls a fast one and explodes a different yacht with innocent citizens in it this is just one example of the kind of mind games Mr. J will play
the scene has already been filmed in Chicago

apparently Heath Ledger has taken his portrayal as the Joker very seriously, while filming the party scene he was literally yanking extras up to his face and slapping them around despite the script and scene not calling for it :lol thus creating a genuine surprised look on the extras :clap

[E20]

I guess the evacuation is because of Joker's serum. That would be a painful way to die -- suffocation due to non-stop laughing.

[peewee's lovechild]

Dude you right up my alley with all the info on casting you forgot about Anthony Michael Hall as ? The Riddler maybe and yes Eric Roberts as Sal Moroni is going to kick ass and of course you can't forget about Cillian Murphy as Scarecrow

The Anthony Michael Hall thing has been debunked as a rumor.

I wonder how Harvey Dent turns into Two Face.

This looks fucking awesome.
I guess he fakes his own death and then comes back with the vengence of Satan.

I can't fucking wait for this movie to come out!!!!!!!!!!!

The Anthony Michael Hall thing has been debunked as a rumor.

Oh no way buddy he is in it he is Locked in it just that no one knows exactly who he is playing well at least not any of the fans know who he is

[peewee's lovechild]

Oh no way buddy he is in it he is Locked in it just that no one knows exactly who he is playing well at least not any of the fans know who he is

comicbookmovies.com, joblo.com, and commingsoon.com are wrong more often than not.

While he is listed as a cast member for the movie, I think this is Chris Nolan's slight of hand to confuse everyone.

For example, everbody was making a big fuss about Rutger Hauer in BB. Everyone swore he was going to be some kind of villain . . . didn't happen.

I can't say for sure that AMH won't be the Riddler, but I think it's highly unlikely.

[JMarkJohns]

I can't wait a year for this. I need to see it NOW! It looks better than I could have ever imagined.

Peewee, I have seen your sig. Have you seen who's in your sig in her movie "Havoc"? Lord have mercy! :spin

[Avitus1]

The Batman movie looks better and better the more I see it. The Joker looks awesome, only problem I got is I wish his hair was a bit greener, dah well I'm sure without a doubt he'll be a bad SOB.

http://www.tublogdecine.es/wp-content/themes/Cinestar2/img/joker.JPG
So you think Heath Ledger will be a better Joker than Jack Nicholson?

[JMarkJohns]

More sinister, yes, as nutty, no. Depends on what type of Joker you want, and how that preference defines "good" ... Ledger isn't a bad actor, and this is a new look for him. Frankly, I want a dark Joker that's more in line with the comic than the fanatical, laugh-happy goof of the TV/Burton fame.

Oh no I am with you on that man, I know this whole riddler thing is just some fanboy rumor but there is no denying that AMH will be in this but like you said he will probably be some villain like Rutger Hauers villain in BB not necessarily a familiar costume wearing villain just a corporate villain
AMH quote "I signed a confidentiality agreement, and I can't say which part I'm playing because it affects the story," said Hall. "I can't give away the suspense - it's a $200 million surprise, and I don't want to be the guy to ruin it.""They're shooting in London, Chicago and Hong Kong. My next dates are in Chicago, the third week of August with Morgan, then I get to go back to London.""It's really a great role," he added. "I'm in throughout the whole movie, and I'm really looking forward to working with Christian and Morgan and all these real Hollywood heavy hitters."

I do think his character will have some significance ala Dr. Crane in Begins (the whole fear toxin panic in the end could not have happened if it weren't for Crane) my thoughts of characters he might play

Vernon Field - The corrupt assistant district attorney that provides the acid to Sal Maroni that later scars Dent

Azrael aka Jean-Paul Valley or the Batman-wannabe vigilante from the sides

Black Mask or maybe just Roman Sionis

I'd say due to the secrecy Hall's character will have importance and will be a character that we all know but with the brilliant William Fichtner playing the bank manager from the sides AMH might just play a Wayne Enterprises board member

I don't think Black Mask is possible.
He doesn't show up until late in the Batman mythos.

But, I agree that he might be a character of relevance . . . just not to the point of the Riddler or anything like that.

[E20]

I want a Joker who is goofy and laughs at everything, even in situations involving his own death, etc.......basically laughs at everything, but is a homicidal maniac and killer, like in the comics. They type of Joker in the Batman comics where he gassed a room full of Preschool kids and had a tea party with his men in the same room.

[JMarkJohns]

There's laughing because he's manic crazy and sinister, then there's laughing like a nut because of overdone goofiness. I like the former. I liked Jack, but you can't redo Jack. It's best if you take it another direction, one away from the "silly" and closer to the "sick" ...

[J.T.]

It would be cool if we finally get Harley Quinn in a Batman movie.

Anthony Michael Hall could mosdef pull off Edward Nigma. Riddler is the perfect bad guy for the BB universe, and they could make up for the mistake of the last Riddler, Jim Carrey. I would love to see what Nolan would do with Nigma's character in the BB world where crime is everywhere, everyone is a bad guy, not just the Batman villains.

As much as I would like to see the riddler in TDK I just don't see it happening Nolan would be setting up another Batman Forever (Batman 3) with Two Face and the Riddler as the villains unless of course it is pre Riddler just Edward Nigma but not the psycho Edward, Edward Nigma before he goes crazy maybe even have him a good guy working at Wayne Enterprises but even then I just don't see it happening

[T Park]

One of the leaked clips of the Joker, he seems to be the laughing maniac but a sick murderer.

The whole murdering the preschool kids thing prob wouldn't fly nowadays, but would be a good part of a movie.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Hey! That don't sound very neocon-ish!

[T Park]

:rolleyes

[Trainwreck2100]

I can't believe everyone is forgetting Scarecrow

[Cant_Be_Faded]

LOL @ E20 reading and knowing about DC comics. DC comics still blow so hardcore.

But I also want a performer who can portray best the Joker like we saw in the underrated cartoon Batman movie Mask of the Phantasm. Like E20 said, laughing at everything, even his own death.

[J.T.]

I don't think Two Face is going to be in this movie. From what I understand it's supposed to be about the Bat-Gordon-Dent alliance and more about the early years of Batman (which is why Nolan won't introduce Dick Grayson in this movie).

I think what might happen is instead of trying to make Gordon go insane, the Joke will go after Harvey instead.

[tsb2000]

It's officially on YouTube now

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxl2M18mE94

Interesting how AMH is listed on IMDB, but he's the only one without a character credit. There's a couple of good pics on the movie site there.

[monosylab1k]

http://www.tublogdecine.es/wp-content/themes/Cinestar2/img/joker.JPG
So you think Heath Ledger will be a better Joker than Jack Nicholson?
I think he will be....Nicholson could have been spectacular as Joker but he was ruined by Tim Burton's bullshit.

[peewee's lovechild]

Two Face IS going to be in the movie.

Aaron Echhardt was interviewed at the ComicCon and while he said that he was under contract and couldn't give any details . . . he did say, "I can tell you that I'm playing TWO part". He smiled and the crowd went crazy.

And, I don't think we'll see Dick Grayson at all . . . at least not as part of the first trilogy.

[peewee's lovechild]

Fuck no!!

Harley Quinn would only ham up the movie.
We'd go back to the fucking Shumacher sequals.

And, I really don't think AMH is going to be The Riddler/Ed Nigma.
He was only contracted to do a few scenes, not enough for a major character.

[J.T.]

Well, I just hope that Nolan doesn't fuck up the new Batman film franchise by making any kind of tag-team villains or making them team up like the older Batman sorry excuses for movies.

There are too many Batman bad guys that are too over the top for this new franchise.

I hope they don't go too far away from the fact that Gotham is still infested by criminals and the mob too, not just the named villains like Joker, Two Face, and such. That's what I liked about Begins. If they throw that aside in favor of giving the primary antagonist roles I am going to be very pissed off.

So we're going to have the Joker's creation and Two Face in the same movie. Damn I hope Nolan pulls this off well.

BTW he already said that Dick Grayson isn't going to be in any of the first movies because he is still working on the beginning of the Batman story line, so Dick Grayson is either not born yet or way too young to be in the story. IMO Robin F'd up the other movies pretty good so I say they should just leave his ass out of it.

[JMarkJohns]

I agree. Just say no to Robin.

[T Park]

First off, Ledger has got the absolute most perfect maniac laugh I've everheard. Also, if he looks like he does in the picture where it just shows his eye (dunno if thats fake or not) then hes gonna be goooooood.

Robin was effed up, cause the writing was effed up and so was Chris O Donnell. Robin in the comics was ok.

How old aproximately is Batman at this time period, very early 20s? This makes me want to get the comics....

Also, wouldn't they make 2face at the end of the movie? Kinda like they hinted at the Joker at the end of the first?

IIRC from the comics, what little I read, the Joker was on trial, and he threw the acid in his face, to create 2 face.


Looks fantastic.

your more well versed on the storyline than I am, what do you mean?

Well, in "Begins" at the time of his running off, he was in college, so let's say maybe 20, and then he was declared legally dead after 7 years, so let's say he returns around 27. He also celebrates a birthday in the film, so my guess is his movie age at the end was just turned 28. TDK should be late 20's/early 30's, but will most likely just start where the last one left off.

As for Robin, what you said is true, but It'll be hard to work in a character that can have any screen presense alongside Bale. He commands the scene.

So we're going to have the Joker's creation and Two Face in the same movie. Damn I hope Nolan pulls this off well.

BTW he already said that Dick Grayson isn't going to be in any of the first movies because he is still working on the beginning of the Batman story line, so Dick Grayson is either not born yet or way too young to be in the story. IMO Robin F'd up the other movies pretty good so I say they should just leave his ass out of it.

I think that's what Nolan's doing . . . all the villians (Scarecrow, Joker, Two-Face) are going to give him a run for his money. Batman's probably going to get his ass kicked a couple of times.

I think this movie is about how Batman basically creates the evil villian situation and how he's ill prepared to fight it, but eventually finds a way.

[The Red Hood]

Well, in "Begins" at the time of his running off, he was in college, so let's say maybe 20, and then he was declared legally dead after 7 years, so let's say he returns around 27. He also celebrates a birthday in the film, so my guess is his movie age at the end was just turned 28. TDK should be late 20's/early 30's, but will most likely just start where the last one left off.

As for Robin, what you said is true, but It'll be hard to work in a character that can have any screen presense alongside Bale. He commands the scene.

Bruce will be in his early 30's in TDK because he celebrated his 30th birthday in BB

[The Red Hood]

Well, I just hope that Nolan doesn't fuck up the new Batman film franchise by making any kind of tag-team villains or making them team up like the older Batman sorry excuses for movies.

There are too many Batman bad guys that are too over the top for this new franchise.

I hope they don't go too far away from the fact that Gotham is still infested by criminals and the mob too, not just the named villains like Joker, Two Face, and such.

So you don't want crap villain Tag-teams but you want Harley Quinn in this :rolleyes I don't know about you but the last thing I want to see is another Freeze Ivy team up the whole point about this movie (TDK) according to Nolan is that things will get real bad before they can get good BB kinda gave us that clue in the end with the escalation talk escalation will happen in TDK like The Joker says in the teaser "Tonight people will die" that sentence alone sums up TDK, Nolan has said that as dark and gritty as BB was TDK will be even more dark innocent people will die, get hurt scarred for life. Batman, Gordan, and Dent will all realize that they are up against something much bigger not in just The Joker but in the fight for control in Gotham now that Falcone is beyond crazy most likley dead every gang you can think of will fight and have gang wars Michael Jai White (Spawn) will play Gamble the leader of a gang an average 'gangsta' gang. Crane will be back with a gang of his own only this time Crane has lost his mind due to the gas that Batman gave him he will officially be Scarecrow and now Sal Moroni will have his men and of course The Joker will be a wild card even his goons will not expect the shit that he will do

As I have said before the whole point about these movies is Batman despite the other interesting characters Batman/Bruce Wayne will be the vocal point he will have the most screen time get the most lines be in more scenes than any other character something that has been missing from ALL the previous Batman films

[The Red Hood]

First off, Ledger has got the absolute most perfect maniac laugh I've everheard. Also, if he looks like he does in the picture where it just shows his eye (dunno if thats fake or not) then hes gonna be goooooood.

Robin was effed up, cause the writing was effed up and so was Chris O Donnell. Robin in the comics was ok.

How old aproximately is Batman at this time period, very early 20s? This makes me want to get the comics....

Also, wouldn't they make 2face at the end of the movie? Kinda like they hinted at the Joker at the end of the first?

IIRC from the comics, what little I read, the Joker was on trial, and he threw the acid in his face, to create 2 face.


Looks fantastic.

Robin is actually a very good character if you know his whole back story, your right Tpark the only reason why he sucked was because of the shitty script and Chris O' Donnels complete lack of charisma but I don't think he would fit very well in Nolans movies first of all he is too young I think Nolan said it best when asked if Robin would ever make an appearance in these movies "Robin is probably in a crib somewhere"

I think it was originally Sal Moroni that scarred Dent not the Joker :) I just don't see Joker being in a courtroom on trial I know for sure Moroni will be and there will be a scene with Dent thoroughly questioning Maroni on the stand with Moroni giving smart ass answers

there will also be a scene with joker in a jail cell and in the scene he will start up a conversation with the guard asking him "So how many of your friends have I killed?"

and like pee wee said two face WILL BE IN THIS and it won't be the cliffhanger for next movie we will actually see a good amount of him in this if I remember correctly their was an interviewer that asked him if there was a certain scene he was looking forward to shooting to which he replied "there is a scene I am looking forward too it will be very somber and call for a lot of emotion"

[J.T.]

your more well versed on the storyline than I am, what do you mean?

I mean I don't want another trash movie like that one with Mr. Freeze and Ivy tag-teaming with each other. It was almost like that movie was a cartoon acted out by real actors. Hollywood trash at its finest.

What I was getting to in my point is all of the old Batman movies are about Batman fighting a couple of the big time Batman villains from the comics. I guess that's easier for Hollywood to snatch all of the kids who read the Batman comics and grew up and now want to show their kids about Batman without having them read 50 years worth of comics... but Gotham is a really fucked up place. Joker, Freeze, Ivy, Penguin, Two-Face, and so on aren't the only things that are bad about Gotham. I hated the older Batman movies because it acts like Batman only has to fight psychos in crazy costumes.

[J.T.]

So you don't want crap villain Tag-teams but you want Harley Quinn in this :rolleyes

I'd prefer to have Harley killed before she completely obsesses over Joke, which would make Joke show a little emotion (make him feel love), and then that leads to the finale where he kidnaps the Gordons and tries to drive the Lt. mad with his "Anyone can have a really bad day" line. That obviously is out for this movie though. Is it confirmed or not if Joke's going to die in this one?

Just to show Joke still has some humanity.

Her story in recent Bat comics is a lot less gay than the TV show. DC has fucked up their continuity so many times, I don't know she would fit into this timeline though.

[tsb2000]

AMH said he couldn't say who he was playing because it would spoil the movie (hence the NDA), so it's definitely a familiar name.

Well a lot of people are saying Riddler because of how "mysterious" they are being about it. I think he would be a decent Riddler but they won't introduce three of Bat's biggest foes into one movie. Not without totally fucking it up. So I don't know what to think.

Well that could be just about anyone but I just don't really seeing Nolan fucking this up with 4 famous named villains it would just be too gimmicky I think he did not want to say the name of the character because he knows that thier are some hard core fans out there myself included that know most of the bat characters for example if he were to say I am going to play Vernon Fields some die hard fans would know that his character turns out to betray Dent

[The Red Hood]

Well if that were the case then Harley will never be in Nolans Batman films Trust me on this Heath Ledgers Joker is really going to be a fucked up person making him feel love or lust for someone will be making a Nicholson's Joker knockoff trust me this Joker will not have any pity or remorse for anyone again the teaser refers to that think about what Alfred said "Some men aren't looking for anything logical. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn."

[JMarkJohns]

"...Some men just want to watch the world burn."

I can't wait :hungry:

[E20]

Two-Face will be in the movie. I think they're gonna try to play it out like this:

-Joker throws a chemical substance on one side of Harvey Dent's face
-Joker will make it look like Batman did it or Batman is seen as the person who led to the scarring of Dent (In Dent's eyes)
-Harvey Dent will buy it and hate Batman, but is still friends with Bruce Wayne. (He doesn't know who Batman really is)
-Harvey Dent will not recover pyschologically from the attack and will become Schizophrenic/Bi-Polar which roots from his hatred of Batman for ruining his life.

That's the thing about, Batman's villians they're all credible in how they orginate, except for a couple of exceptions (Ra's Al Ghul being one). Most of them have pyschological disorders and were mistreated as kids or as adults:
Penguin
Riddler
Two Face
Joker
Killer Croc
Poison Ivy
Freeze etc.
And now they lash out at society for there mistreatments and problems.

The whole Robin thing would be iffy........I mean the orginal Robin(Dick Grayson) was supposed to be an acrobatic perfomer at a Circus with his Mother and Father. Some Mob boss/Crime syndicate leader killed his Mother and Father to show the owners of the Circus to show he meant buisness (Mob boss was extorting them for money), but that happens early. I think Robin is introduced in Detective Comics number 38 or 39, not too sure, but Robin is introduced after Joker and some other villains. So, the way I would like Robin to be introduced is, if they do more Batman movies, in the last Batman movie that feature Bale as Batman and Nolan as the director towards the end Bruce adopts Grayson. :lol That kinda sounds like I don't like Robin, but I think it would be for the best for the general public if Robin didn't really see any major time on the screen.

wasn't dent always messed up in the head, it's just that the acid and scarring brought it to the forefront?

[E20]

wasn't dent always messed up in the head, it's just that the acid and scarring brought it to the forefront?
I think Dent had a history of being really self-conscious and worried what other people thought about him and how he looked physically and as a politican/buisness man in the eyes of the public and his scarring fucked him up beyond repair(Physically and Emotionally), but here is an interesting tidbit I remember reading, I think it was a comic or a guide, that Dent had surgery to completely clear up his scarring and he went back to normal, but later on he couldn't stand his mundane life/control his otherself that he ended up mutilating himself to fully become Two-Face again, which I thought was cool. Not too many people could do that to themselves. I love how he flips the coin to make his decisions for him. Heads: Do the Crime, Tails: Don't do it, but it's a double-sided coin/trick coin. :lol

[E20]

LOL @ E20 reading and knowing about DC comics. DC comics still blow so hardcore.

But I also want a performer who can portray best the Joker like we saw in the underrated cartoon Batman movie Mask of the Phantasm. Like E20 said, laughing at everything, even his own death.
When you mean blow do you mean 'blow' as in good or bad?

[The Red Hood]

wasn't dent always messed up in the head, it's just that the acid and scarring brought it to the forefront?

I believe he had his issues, he was very vain because of his good looks and charm his father was abusive to him and his mother I think that is how the coin came in to the picture if I remember correctly his dad had a coin collection and would use a coin to decide weather he would beat his son or not and it's funny that you mention the trick coin E20 because his father would use that as well just so that no matter what he would still beat Harvey he would also mock Harvey's attempt into law school so in a bizzare way Harvey sorta became his father he became the very thing he fought against

I can see why Nolan would put the character of Harvey Dent/Two Face in these movies Harvey is a very "real" character and that fits perfectly with Nolan's realism that he is going for

Does anyone here know if the role of Rachel Dawes offered to Katie Holmes-Cruise? Or did she just turn it down? As successful as this franchise will probably end up becoming I think that it would have been stupid of her to turn it down.

Thats what makes it so unusual that Katie Holmes and her publicists have both said that she was the one that decided not to continue with Batman, so word out in the street says that Nolan and company (WB) booted her ass out because of her crazy hubby's antics and the bad press it could have on the future movies

plus lets face it she was a child among adults in Batman Begins as if it wasn't enough that her "acting" was bad it looks even worse when she is surrounded by some of the greatest actors of our time

Exactly. I'm not too keen on Maggie's looks, though she looked pretty good in Stranger Than Fiction, but she's a much better actress. It seemed at the end of BB, that the films were transitioning away from a romantic interest twixt Dawes and Wayne anyways...

Yeah she was the only thing that made BB unbearable for me a some points. I was just wondering did she turn down the part, or was it even offered to her. I don't buy that SHE decided not to continue with it. I mean what pressing projects can she say she is currently working on? Any fool would want to be part of perhaps one of the biggest blockbusters in movie history. :greedy :greedy :greedy

Kate Beckinsale as CatWoman?

Movie Whiteout Posted By: Tim / Source
Related News : Horror Movie News , Thriller Movie News , Comic Flicks ,

At the Comic Con junket for WhiteOut Kate Beckinsale dropped the bombshell that she is interested in the CatWoman role in the next Batman movie which frankly scares the crap out of me. I dont think I can handle her in latex... its just way to hot! She said she wants the role because

"... I have a thing for black latex....

She also went on to say that she was a big fan of Michelle Pfeiffer and her portral of Catwoman.

"I think Michelle Pfeiffer was such an awesome Catwoman. I’d have to give it some serious consideration.”

She was at the junket to talk about her new film WhiteOut. Kate Beckinsale has been set to star in and Dominic Sena has been set to direct the action thriller "Whiteout". The film will be the first to go into production under Joel Silver’s newly reorganized Dark Castle Entertainment, which gives Silver an autonomous role in green-lighting and financing films produced under the banner. "Whiteout", which is based on Greg Rucka’s 1999 Eisner Award-winning comic book miniseries of the same name.

In "Whiteout", Beckinsale will star as Carrie Stetko, the lone U.S. Marshal assigned to Antarctica, whose investigation of the continent’s first murder draws her into a shocking mystery. Now, with only three days until winter, Carrie must solve the crime before Antarctica is plunged into darkness and she is stranded with the killer.

Not that this means anything seeing as how Robin Williams wanted to play the Joker but it's still pretty good reading :)

[Avitus1]

I heard Joker is going to spray Dent in the face with his acid flower at some point and thats how he becomes Two-Face. Though I heard this a very, very long time ago. I think that Harley would be a great addition to the franchise and her teaming up with Joker or maybe later Poison Ivy (Like she did briefly in the comics) would be awesome.

"The Killing Joke" One of my favorite Batman comics. I go out of my way to try to collect the Bat books, especially the ones that feature Joker.

Mr. Freeze would be awesome to see in the movies as well. Mr. Freeze from the comics would be great he's cold calculating and ruthless, all he wants is to bring Nora back. He is one of the few Batman villains that is put in Arkham not because he is crazy but because its the only facility that can meet his medical needs.

No doubt she'd look fantastic, blonde or not, but I'm a Catwoman fanatic and I don't know if she's quite got the right certain something to play her. Between the fabulous Julie Newmar in the 60's and Michelle Pheiffer in Batman Returns, I worry that the bar's just been set too high.

I think that Harley would be a great addition to the franchise and her teaming up with Joker or maybe later Poison Ivy (Like she did briefly in the comics) would be awesome.

I can't see them being this unfaithful to the Batman pantheon. Sal Maroni caused the disfigurement that led Dent down the path to madness and eventually becoming Two-Face, and with very few exceptions that fact has remained constant even as the story has been re-imagined over the years.

Then again, the 1989 Batman movie cast Joker (aka Jack Napier) as the killer of Bruce Wayne's parents, so I guess nothing is sacred. But rottentomatoes.com reports that: "... it looks like Eric Roberts will be playing a gangster called Sal Maroni, aka the bad man who helped turn Harvey Dent into the villainous Two-Face."

[JMarkJohns]

I think Juliette Lewis could pull of a great variation of Catwoman... I'm just worried that by the time the filming starts, she'll be around 5/10 years past her acting prime. However, as Pfeiffer showed, Catwoman doesn't need to be a youngin.

She was beyond twisted in Natural Born Killers and with Nolen's direction, could really play the part well...

[E20]

When Joker in the teaser says: I'm a man of my word, I think he is referring/mocking Harvey Dent.

I wouldn't be surprised if they stay away from Catwoman as long as they can...

Catwoman is a failure as a villian. She's barely used anymore...................

[Avitus1]

Catwoman is more of an anti-hero now then a villain. She may have been intended to be a villain but she slowly evolved into a love interest for Batman. It might have ruined the original idea for the character but I think she adds an interesting element to the Batman story because she is a love interest who also dawns a costume each night, or whenever she needs too. At any rate shes probably a long way off.

I understand that but the original character is a brunette you can check every comic book with her in it and she is never a blonde including her very first appearance in the 40's

they were following the 'Returns' continuity in Batman TAS but in Batman The New Animated Series they turned her hair to a brunette again

I think they even did an episode wear she found out that the brand of blonde hair color she used was tested on animals and with her being an animal rights activist in the cartoon she ditched it and went back to her natural brunette/black hair color

Kate Beckinsale as CatWoman?

Movie Whiteout Posted By: Tim / Source

At the Comic Con junket for WhiteOut Kate Beckinsale dropped the bombshell that she is interested in the CatWoman role in the next Batman movie which frankly scares the crap out of me. I dont think I can handle her in latex... its just way to hot! She said she wants the role because

"... I have a thing for black latex....

She also went on to say that she was a big fan of Michelle Pfeiffer and her portral of Catwoman.

"I think Michelle Pfeiffer was such an awesome Catwoman. I’d have to give it some serious consideration.”

She was at the junket to talk about her new film WhiteOut. Kate Beckinsale has been set to star in and Dominic Sena has been set to direct the action thriller "Whiteout". The film will be the first to go into production under Joel Silver’s newly reorganized Dark Castle Entertainment, which gives Silver an autonomous role in green-lighting and financing films produced under the banner. "Whiteout", which is based on Greg Rucka’s 1999 Eisner Award-winning comic book miniseries of the same name.

In "Whiteout", Beckinsale will star as Carrie Stetko, the lone U.S. Marshal assigned to Antarctica, whose investigation of the continent’s first murder draws her into a shocking mystery. Now, with only three days until winter, Carrie must solve the crime before Antarctica is plunged into darkness and she is stranded with the killer.

Not that this means anything seeing as how Robin Williams wanted to play the Joker but it's still pretty good reading :)


Kate in Leather is always good!!

[JMarkJohns]

You should have heard the audience go nuts of the teaser. They hung on every word and erupted with "Awesome" and "Oh, hell yeah!' type responses once Joker started laughing!

It was freakin' awesome!

‘DARK KNIGHT’ FOOTAGE MAKES ITS DEBUT
A full report on the first look at Christopher Nolan’s Batman sequel including the Joker, the Batpod and…Two Face?

By Kiel Phegley
Posted August 11, 2007 8:40 PM

Minutes ago, the capacity crowd at Wizard World Chicago was treated to the first look at “The Dark Knight” – the much anticipated sequel to fan favorite “Batman Begins.” With actors Christian Bale, Gary Oldman and Aaron Eckhart on hand along with Nolan and screenwriters Jonah Nolan and David Goyer, DC Publisher Paul Levitz led the crowd through a spirited and secretive Q&A before getting to a sneak peek at the Dark Knight’s most recent on-screen battle with his arch nemesis, The Joker.

Fans were only allowed to see it once, and while it might be some time before the footage will be released to theaters across America, Wizard Universe was on hand to witness the action and give a full report.

The footage started with a silhouette of a dark figure in front of one of Batman’s armored vehicles before quickly cutting to Bruce Wayne and Alfred delivering the brief lines heard in the “Dark Knight” teaser trailer.

“Some people just want to watch the world burn,” advises Alfred before the camera jumps to Batman in action on the Batpod, the new iteration of his motorcycle.

The action built up as the Joker was seen in full for the first time with a mess of white face, smeared red lipstick and sweaty, straggly green hair. Apparently, the clown prince of crime gets arrested at one point in the film, as the montage presented Jim Gordon (complete in SWAT gear) at the Joker’s booking, saying, "no prints, no ID, custom clothes, no tags.” The clown smiles with what appears to be blood over his face from the inside of an interrogation room.

Checking back in with Bruce Wayne, the billionaire playboy has a brief scene with Eckhart’s Harvey Dent where he says “Rachel’s told me everything about you.”

“I truly hope not,” responds Wayne.

The footage sped up at that point into an intense montage of action, featuring the following clips:

- The new batsuit rising up from a trap door in the ground and held in a chain metal case.

- Rachel Dawes (played by Maggie Gyllenhaal) close to an unidentified man either kissing him or being threatened by him as the camera rotates around them.

- The Joker and Batman battling in close quarters (possibly a hospital room). Batman throws Joker over a table and crashing into the ground while the clown smiles at him. It should be noted that the Joker was done up in his signature purple suit.

- Plenty of big, bold Batmobile action including a shot where the tank-like car drives through a wall of flame. In fact, flames were pretty much everywhere in the footage as it appears Joker does actually make the world burn.

- There is also a shot of a somewhat grim-faced Joker walking across a city street mercilessly firing a machine gun as well as a television close-up of the Joker laughing hysterically.

- Two major additions to the speculation that Two Face will appear in the film came in the form of a single shot of a spinning 50 cent piece and the final image: after the action montage has slowed down, the camera cuts to a bartender looking at Harvey Dent, whose only onscreen presence is his left shoulder and a bit of a reddish-purple scarred neck. “Dent! I thought you were dead!” the man gasps, to which Harvey replies, “Half.”

and it has been confirmed that the actual Trailer for the film will premiere in December with WB's 'I Am Legend' starring Will Smith this makes sense now with The Joker marketing site "See you in December" Keep a look out for the WWC footage to be bootlegged on youtube even though Security searched everyone before entering the panel

WB is trying desperately to not have this leaked but I am sure there was some geeky fanboy that shoved a camera up his anus

This post had done what viagra could never do for me!!!!!!!!!!

You fucking kick ass!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't wait for this movie!!!!!
I'll make a pact with the Devil to make sure I don't die before this movie is released!!!!!!

[Avitus1]

Fucking sweet! I cant wait till someone leaks this.... please oh please let someone have gotten this...

[mFFL03]

I don't think its going to leak......it was very private and forced by the studio, so I think they took the neccessary precautions.

Besides we'll get to see a trailer in December...there's still about 10 weeks left in shooting (they've been shooting since May and April too, anyone else find that weird?)

Supposedly the Joker will have a Texan descent and accent.....lets all pat ourselves on the back if its true!!!! When we are not raising women who drown and kill their own kids and husbands, we are raising psychopaths!

[Kermit]

:wtf

[mFFL03]

love the pics......

Looks like the Jokers gash smile isn't apparent in one of the pics....or maybe its just really hard to see......

these are leaked photos which i'm sure someone will get fired over....but hey....they are out. the studio and movie makers are still going to make millions so don't feel too bad for them.

POTENTIAL SPOLIER BELOW


anyone else notice what could be cillian murphy/scarecrow in the garage pic with lots of men sitting around? he looks the the 2nd guy on the left. there was a rumor long ago that we will see the joker on the scarecrows gas. that should be scaringly sweet

[The Red Hood]

GEEZ you might want to remove that link Kermit Warner Bros is ordering a CEASE + DESIST on all internet sites that host the images or even post a link to them someone from inside did this and they (WB) is investigating it right now they are threatening to cancel all marketing campaigns they had in store for the coming months including the 'see you in December' site with the full trailer in addition WB is scouting out all sites that has links or the pics and they will send a threatening legal action e-mail to the owner of the sites they have done this already to superherohype, ain't it cool news, and others

I took it down, but come on...They're not going to cancel anything. Canceling the marketing would completely fuck the movie and that's the last thing they want to do. Besides, all the fanboys have been jerking off to those leaked pictures. They're a success.

[tsb2000]

Couple more new pics- here's the link to perezhilton where I saw them.

Yeah you may be right about that no doubt that the marketing sites have cost WB some serious dough they are pissed at people and or fans linking and spreading the pics over the net this was their fault in the first place with the inside job but they don't appreciate people ignoring their request if this whole "leak" was unintentional you gotta feel for Chris Nolan and company they were trying real hard to keep a lot of the film secret only showing bits to a small group of people (Wizard World Chicago) though their is still a lot of stuff kept secret (two face) so this by no means has ruined the experience for me I will still be the first in line to see this

As will I. Seriously, Michael Bay couldn't fuck this movie up.

[CuckingFunt]

As will I. Seriously, Michael Bay couldn't fuck this movie up.But Joel Schumacher could.

[L.I.T]

But Joel Schumacher could.

[The Red Hood]

OK so I have some small and some BIG news concerning 'The Dark Knight' I guess I will start with the small first

If you were one of those that was fortunate enough to get a peek at the leaked pics and if you were are one of those nitpicky types (which I don't blame you for being I am one myself :nerd ) that were frowning on the leaked pics for several reasons like "the lighting seems too bright! I thought Nolan and company were saying that this was going to be DARKER than 'Begins' figuratively and literally" Well don't fret because according to the very few lucky ones that saw the WWC (Wizard World Chicago) footage some of the leaked pics are scenes from the footage and the those scenes had a dark blue tint to them Begins had that gold almost yellow tint to the film well TDK will be dark blue the reason why the pics did not have that blue tint was because they were in production photos

OK Now comes the BIG NEWS or I should say the BIG SPOILERS WARNING THIS IS HUGE THIS IS ONE OF THE MANY "Ra's is Ducard" type spoilers I even made it to were you have to highlight over the text for those that may not want to see the SPOILERS

First let me say I was fortunate enough to get this info from a "very reliable source" who has proven them self to be right about certain information I won't go much more into it than that I will say that one of the SPOILERS may not come to some as such a shock depending on how much you know about the Batman characters it MAY OR MAY NOT RUIN THE MOVIE EXPERIENCE FOR YOU

Here is the first Twist
The Joker has permanent WHITE SKIN he applies fleshtone makeup to his skin and then adds the clown makeup on top of that, Why? who knows apparently that is apart of the twist it could be because he is just fucking nuts but knowing Nolan there is more to it than that
rumor has it that Joker uses the flesh makeup so he can use fake Jokers to fool people. Just like he did at SCC (San Diego Comic Con). He wants people to see flesh color under the White makeup, hence the sloppy applying. That way if they capture someone they wont just rub off the makeup and see they are flesh toned and know it's not "The" Joker.

The second Spoiler is a BIG ONE....to some
JAMES GORDON DIES YOU HEARD ME RIGHT GORDON GETS KILLED OFF....

Lt. James Gordon has a young son I would say around five years old he also has a wife Barbra Gordon (no not Batgirl) played by Melinda McGraw, of The X-Files fame. Melissa Scully is Commissioner Gordon's wife there will be a scene in which the police tell Barbra that Gordon is dead....she blames Batman for it I guess this early in the film



I would say around halfway through the film..............GORDON IS BACK! He fakes his death and only him and Batman are in on it we as the audience are fooled into thinking he is dead they really make us beleive he has been killed until Gordon comes back with a Bang I guess Batman and Gordon do this in order to protect Gordons family I guess like a temporary witness protection program
If you are a fan of Gary Oldman like me you are going to LOVE him in this James Gordon is going to be a badass cop in TDK and I don't mean badass as in he is going to start swearing and all I just mean badass as in he is going to really help Batman out against the Joker and GO's performance is going to really make us stand up and cheer because I have a feeling we will also LOATHE The Joker so to see Gordon help take down the Joker will be awsome

an insider has said that they have already filmed the BIG chase sequence in which The Joker delivers a memorable line here is how the sequence will play out

Batman and the Joker face off during a wheeled confrontation. Batman, riding the Batpod, shoots and hits the Joker’s Van with two rockets. Simultaneously, one of the Joker’s Clowns makes a direct hit to the Batpod. Batman is thrown from the cycle in the explosion and lands in the street. One of the Clowns grabs Batman and is thrown back by a shocking jolt from the Bat’s electrified belt. The Joker kicks and spits on his Clown Henchman after approaching Batman himself. He sprays something on Batman and immediately grabs him by the back of the head. The Joker has a knife to Batman’s throat ready to slice when Gordon appears. Gordon’s shotgun is pressed to his head when the Joker slowly turns and jokes, ”Can ya give me a minute?” Sources on site reported the scene took at least 10 takes as the crew perfected the Joker’s spray

[L.I.T]

yah, I'm not highlighting that. Can threads be put on ignore? Must stop itchy finger...from...highlighting...spoilers

[E20]

I read it, I don't really care about spoilers. That sounds sick.

If that scene is true . . . it's going to make the whole movie happen for me!!!!!!

[BeerIsGood!]

In this movie and this series the overall theme should be "fucked up". As twisted, horrifying, and wicked as they can make it without crossing the cheese factor is where this should go. They should abstain from the over the top gore that reeks of cheese and make it extremely realistic and chilling to the bone. Comic Joker meets Ed Gein. Realism and wicked horror that would make small children cry endlessly and refrain from sleep for days. Make it so.

Well I do know that one of the themes will be that "things are going to get REAL BAD before they can get better"

The first draft was dark (it wouldn't have made PG-13 without some serious editing) and had several more deaths/significantly less screen time for certain characters.

The first draft also had

Harvey Bullock

no Salvatore Maroni instead it was The Penguin as a British arms dealer trying to make his way to the top of Gothom's underground crime world

The first draft was written by Nolan but Goyer insisted that he change some things including getting rid of The Penguin and adding Sal Moroni

[The Red Hood]

Spoilers Below

They filmed a scene with a big building explosion earlier today in Chicago
You probably saw this on Ksat 12 tonight they showed the footage and talked about the movie so here is the link to myfox Chicago they have multiple views of the big explosion http://www.myfoxchicago.com/myfox/pages/Home/Detail;jsessionid=1EC6D1F812BB3CB2828DC59F2FB4BF77 ?contentId=4198152&version=3&locale=EN-US&layoutCode=TSTY&pageId=1.1.1&sflg=1

The building is an abandoned Brach's candy factory but was made up to be Gotham County Hospital mmmmm could it be Gordon's Fake Death Scene

[E20]

I love how everyone started getting fed up with The Red Hood and his TDK threads, but now everybody is latched on to Batman's dick harder than we were.

[E20]

I'm still right about this.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

So I'm supposed to be impressed about a thread about pissing?

[E20]

So I'm supposed to be impressed about a thread about pissing?

This thread correctly predicted that everybody would piss their pants about this movie. The Red Hood was hazed and forced to leave the forum, because nobody wanted to hear about TDK anymore, now everybody is hailing it as the best movie of the year. Way to pwn everybody. I haven't seen TDk yet, I will wait for it on DVD then watch it in the quiet and comfort in my own home. Until then I'll jsut re-read some comic books. Or watchsome Rocky or Ramob. Infact they had Rocky 2 on tonight.
