The Dark Knight

[Charlie the Red]

It got a lot of hits on the old board, so I figured I would revive this.

As you all know, the viral marketing scheme is still going strong right now. Expect something more on April Fool's Day.

So ready for the movie. Will be awesome.

I just got a phone call from Harvey Dent. About a smear campaign against him. ibelieveinharveydent.com

i'm excited about batman begins on blu ray in july. it will come with a discount coupon for the dark knight

this movie looks bad ass. Think Ledger will be nominated for an award posthumously?

[Charlie the Red]

So I don't know if you guys knew or not, but there's been a huge (as in International) viral marketing campaign going on all day today.

It has led to this...

boner still active for this... cant wait

You know, if you have a boner for more than four hours you should consult a physician. This may be a condition known as priapism.

[Foo Radley]

If batman had a boner, would you touch it?

[Veva]

I have batman boner dude. I give up.

I cant wait to see the movie. I dont have a boner. well, I do often but it has nothing to do with batman. Almost nothing

[Allen C. Ander]

If batman had a boner, would you touch it?

I know I would! And I'd down it with a nice tall Budweiser.

[Foo Radley]

See, I'd gobble that monster without the need of alcohol. I'd let him spray his Batsperm all over my tits. Clearly you aren't as big of a fan as you thought.

this is actually pretty cool

[Charlie the Red]

Just a little FYI...there are some leaked Joker pictures out there.

I'm looking for them now...they're supposed to be pretty awesome.

[CMCJeff]

Just a little FYI...there are some leaked Joker pictures out there.

I'm looking for them now...they're supposed to be pretty awesome.

They're fucking SICK! They were posted on a French Dark Knight message board that someone linked on SuperHeroHype, but once the Mods got wind of them they went apeshit and threatened to put people on probation for four months if they linked them or even asked for them.

WARNING: SPOILER BELOW!!!










They are pictures of the Joker dressed up as a Nurse in a hospital reading charts and holding up a silenced pistol and also one of him dressed up as a cop WITHOUT make-up.

This movie is going to be all kinds of kick ass.

[Charlie the Red]

These are a little spoilerish, so I'm giving you a heads up.

Who do you think is in the hospital bed?

My guess:




















Harvey Dent.

[M.Ho]

This movie is going to be fucking gangster.

[thewarning]

WOAH.

Charlie if these get taken down before I get the chance to save them on my computer, I will have to IM you for them.

On a second glance, why does it look like some of these pictures have a photoshopped grain on them? Or, like, the "poster edges" filter?

[Charlie the Red]

WOAH.

Charlie if these get taken down before I get the chance to save them on my computer, I will have to IM you for them.

No problemo. I already have them saved, and I'm trying to get the PS filters off of them right now.

Oh, the PS filters actually have a valid explanation. Whoever leaked them from WB filtered them first so that they wouldn't print properly.

[thewarning]

I see, I see. I've never known a case of that before, so I was perplexed.

[Charlie the Red]

I don't think Nolan will allow the scene to be cut. For starters, it's probably integral to the story, and secondly, he's made a promise that Heath's performance won't be tampered with.

[thewarning]

I don't think it will happen

Scene sounds like it will be sadly ironic when screened though!

[the sick]

Seriously hope he got a decent 2nd unit director to film the fight scenes.

I just watched Begins again and man, those scenes are completely incoherent.

[thewarning]

LOL :)

[unjust881]

I'm definitely am amateur film nerd, but could you clarify this a bit? I mean, I get what you're saying, but I've seen the movie many times and nothing has really jumped out at me as being all that bad

[Optimus Fag]

best poster ever.

[the sick]

I'm definitely am amateur film nerd, but could you clarify this a bit? I mean, I get what you're saying, but I've seen the movie many times and nothing has really jumped out at me as being all that bad

Pretty much any action scene is poorly filmed.

The best example I can think of without getting into too much detail is near the end of the movie, where he fights four of Ra's henchmen. Its basically just a blur of motion. In better hands it could have been an great moment.

Don't get me wrong though the rest of the movie is great, I just have a serious problem with Nolan's action scenes.

[steaming79]

that poster ROCKS! but it sending me mixed messages....did wayne just watch fight club and thought to himself that he can do better?

[the sick]

if you think about it as the "escalation" hinted at by Gordon in the first movie,
Joker blowing holes in buildings shaped liked his symbol would seem to make sense

[Creamsicle]

Pretty much any action scene is poorly filmed.


its pretty much the standard in modern action movies to zoom in really close and do a bunch of quick cuts so you have no idea what the fuck is going on.

bunch of bullshit

[floatate]

i think it had something to do with batman attacking his enemies in such a way that they didn't know what happened.

[CMCJeff]

Seriously hope he got a decent 2nd unit director to film the fight scenes.

I just watched Begins again and man, those scenes are completely incoherent.

I'm fairly certain Nolan directed every single frame of the film. If what I've read is accurate, he didn't use a 2nd unit at all.

And keep an eye out for the trailer to pop up fairly soon. It debuted last Saturday (April 19) at the NYCC and was said to be expected "within two weeks."

Unbelievably excited to see this film in less than three months.

[Vega]

Hellboy 2 will be better.

[thewarning]

WTF with everyone analyzing the poster? Who cares what caused the building to get set on fire? It's not actually a scene from the movie - it's a fucking poster. It's just showing "Gotham is burning" and happens to have the Batman logo because it's a POSTER FOR A BATMAN MOVIE.

[GRANOLEMAN]

I agree that the fight scenes in Begins were a bit disorienting but I thought that was the point.

I thought the chase scene in the tumbler was amazing though, no doubt Dark Knight will rule so long as they don't butcher up the movie due to people not being able to handle Ledger's scenes as the Joker.

[flipp jackson]

Hellboy 2 will be better.

i'm excited as shit for hellboy 2 and i think this is wrong

[thewarning]

I think he is just trying to be inflammatory here

Then again, two different style movies, so maybe he's just more into that "world"

[Vega]

both will be good
but im not one for hype ya know so im more excited for hellboy
i doubt the dark knight will suck

[flipp jackson]

both will be good
but im not one for hype ya know so im more excited for hellboy

i see what you're saying. both of these movies are going to be comic movie gold. This summer is a great for comic films - hellboy 2, the dark night, iron man, and the new hulk looks surprisingly entertaining

[thewarning]

See The Dark Knight doesn't really come off as a comic book movie to me. More like an action/suspense film with Batman in it. Same with Batman Begins, which is why I always say Hellboy is the best comic book movie I've ever seen. (Up to now, obviously.)

you are completely right (which is probably the main reason both films are really good), but i'm just referring to films that have their protagonists taken from comic sources

They're not going to. My only concern is they turn Two-Face into this film's "Venom" and the film sputters out. But I'm pretty confident it won't happen.

[flipp jackson]

i wasn't aware that two face would be in this film.

my understanding is that the joker is the main villain but harvey dent's backstory is fleshed out in this movie and towards the end you see him turn into two-face, so the can be the villain in the third film

[the sick]

last trailer was much better

I bet Dent is made into two-face when the building blows up.

when is that sweet looking batman begins bluray coming out?

It could be studio concept art or a CG reference for the makeup dpt, either option makes it "official" and candidate for removal at WB's insistence. Doesn't mean its a final image.

[Allen C. Ander]

[Clark Griswold]

[thewarning]

No and here's hoping it will stay that way

[chintzy]

someones edited the 1989 batman trailer to make it look like the dark knight trailer.

[thewarning]

By the looks of what?

[lastnightintown]

By the looks of what?

one of the trailers i saw had joker and batman sitting across from a table in what looked like an interrogation room.

[thewarning]

Yeah...but that's not what happens on the next page of The Killing Joke...

[lastnightintown]

? dont get what your saying.

[thewarning]

Trailer (and early spoiler picture) shows Batman beating up the Joker in an interrogation room.

The next page of that comic, The Killing Joke, Batman beats up that guy because he is posing as the Joker.

So that won't be in the movie.

the batman milk ad is asking to be photoshopped.

[Epstein]

am i the only one that thinks the new suit looks weird?

[steaming79]

its matrix-ish. and if bruce drank alcohol, i'm sure he wouldn't be drinking milk.

[Charlie the Red]

The odd thing about the suit is that it looks fine by some angles (great, in fact), horrible by others.

Check this one out:

You can thank Christian Bale's nose.

haha glad to see you just got the joke

This just popped up on Verizon, then posted on YouTube. Shitty quality, but the beginning has some sweet new footage that tells us a little bit about the plot.

[Stoney]

They should have left the suit alone..imo. Wasn't it rather plain in "Batman Begins?" I liked that look.

[Seven To Nothing]

being able to turn your head is important

[Charlie the Red]

The changing of the suit serves a purpose in the plot.


SPOILERS














There's a shitload of Fake Batmen running around, so Bruce has Fox design him a new suit that is more functional as well as unique. This is to identify the real Batman from all of the frauds.

[Clark Griswold]

you're the only boarder i like.

[flipp jackson]

must be if you waited six days to tell him

[Charlie the Red]

At this point I'm just ready for the fucking movie, so new pictures don't really faze me much. Regardless, here's some new stuff:

wow. thanks for the pics. man oh man. i'm getting tired of waiting for this movie.
i'm so gay for gary as gordon. he just so awesome as the commissioner.
and lately its been really sinking in on how sad it is that ledger won't ever see the finished product and how much the batman film fans will embrace and love his portrayal of the joker.

down. any other links to it?

[Charlie the Red]

It's apparently been pulled all over the web as of today, so I have no clue where it is.

I'm digging.

what was it? what was on it?

[lastnightintown]

basically the same trailer, just at the beginning its like a home movie of Joker stating that every day that batman doesnt turn himself in and tell people his true identity people will die.


which is people are saying the whole "people posing as batman" which could very well be true.

Check out the videos section...a nice new featurette.

[Charlie the Red]

I'm pretty sure that interrogation scene is going to end up being my favorite part of the movie.

[flipp jackson]

what will you post about once this movie comes out? it saddens me to think that you may just vanish

[Charlie the Red]

The third one.

[flipp jackson]

so did you ever get your hands on one of those joker cards that were around chicago? that is one of the only pieces of movie memorabilia that i'd like to have

[Charlie the Red]

Sadly I never did. I really wanted those Joker purple and green bowling balls from one of the viral games, though. The only swag I have are a poster, two issues of the Gotham Times, a Harvey Dent button with half of the face burnt off and a t-shirt.

[Charlie the Red]

Oh and to answer your question I'll probably just go back to regular boarding instead of reporting shit all of the time.

[Hollow Light]

I am seriously shitting my pants for this movie.

[Seven To Nothing]

if bale doesn't look like a comic come to to life in that last picture i'll be damned

[Hollow Light]

Not gonna sift through and see if it's been posted but here. 6 min. clip of the bank heist:

[Voxxamp]

have we heard much about what takes place during that interrogation scene?

[flipp jackson]

an interrogation?

[Voxxamp]

an interrogation?

rimshot. in interviews the director has alluded to something greater.

[the sick]

152 minutes

[Charlie the Red]

No one knows anything.

Honestly, this movie is wrapped up tighter than any movie that I can recall, except maybe Revenge of the Sith, but even then we knew what would happen in the end.

That's what makes this so fucking tantalizing.

I'm so fucking excited for this, seriously. I'm seeing this at IMAX on opening day, in full Joker's make-up.

Yes, I am a fucking nerd.

Yeah, pretty much, though I am way more charming and debonair than that fat fuck.

'Bout the same level of nerdyness though.

[Seven To Nothing]

i shouldn't say much though cause i'm spending like $200 on clothes to dye purple for a joker costume for halloween

[Hollow Light]

High-fuckin'-five!

I might do this, but I expect a lot of Joker's this year and my hair's way too long to dye green. Perhaps The Scarecrow? Or maybe Two-face.

Die-hard Batman fan circa '90.

[Seven To Nothing]

two-face is gonna be too hard to pull off properly, and no one is gonna know who you're supposed to be if you do scarecrow

[Hollow Light]

two-face is gonna be too hard to pull off properly, and no one is gonna know who you're supposed to be if you do scarecrow

True, although they make some good burn victim makeup. I need some white out contacts for that though, and that's way too much money.

Scarecrow is fairly recognizable. Burlap sack, noose around the neck, and dusty old brown suit?

http://tonymooreillustration.com/v-web/gallery/albums/sketchbook/scarecrow_72.jpg

[Seven To Nothing]

fairly recognizable to dudes who know shit about batman but...

DUDE LIKE WHO ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE?

I'll also carry around some sand to throw into those faggots' faces, and scream in a shrill voice "ARE YOU AFRAID?! ARE YOU AFRAID?!"

They'll get it then.

[Sex Change]

I can't wait for this movie. Does anyone know how many of these movies they're gonna do and with what villains etc.

[Charlie the Red]

The plan was to do three, although no one really knows what the status of the third one will be after Ledger's death. Instead of recasting, they've written The Joker character out. No one really knows.

[Sultan Of Twat]

Since the franchise is a huge hit so far, I'm hoping and thinking they'll probably go through all the major villains - Mr. Freeze, The Riddler, Poison Ivy, Cat Woman.

God I hope so.
