5 New Posters up first:







trailer update:

Very nice I really love the marketing campaign they're doing for this film very creative.

Hopefully the trailer will be online today.

All those posters are NOTE-PERFECT and run nicely along with the whole Teaser Campaign all except that Motorbike one. Which looks HELL out of place.

Low quality boot of trailer

Now that ive cleaned myself after watching that i think ill watch it again

SHIT! This will be off the hook!

JOKER: "Where do we begin? A year ago, these cops and lawers, wouldn't dare cross any of you I mean, what happened?"

MOB BOSS: "So what are you proposing?"

JOKER: "Its simple: KILL THE BATMAN."

Wow. That looks incredible. Slick work from the trailer people.

Ironman will be but a mere warm-up for this film.

wow, Joker drops Rachel from a building! I guess this IS playing in front of Ironman after all.


NEW POSTER

I agree with Biggs, the Batbike poster, while cool, looks out of place, like it belongs on the cover of a Gotham racing magazine.

On the other hand, something about the billboard poster above that is very cool and feels right.

I dunno, maybe because he looks like Vader or something.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yeah, I'm definitely looking forward to Ironman but having this trailer play infront of that film is like having The Beatles open for Miley Cyrus.

This is an interesting comparison between the 1989 Batman movie and the first Dark Knight trailer.

New Trailer to be released on Sunday here: www.whysoserious.com/happytrails/

that's not the trailer from Burton's Batman. it's fan made. this is:
[flash width=425 height=350]http://www.youtube.com/v/9AdEHOta-Uc[/flash]

they also didn't have green bans in front of the trailers back then.

Holy shit, the Jokerized version of the trailer is fucking HILARIOUS!

[flash width=425 height=355]http://www.youtube.com/v/H3OqlNyE18I[/flash]

(I don't know how to embed)

There's tons of shit to see and read, but in particular watch for what looks like the Joker and his blue lightsaber as he walks down the street(hard to see though). Also shit like when Wayne drives the Lambo at the end the screen says "Target Practice" lol! Batman dropping poop over the city, "the dork knight".. funny stuff.






Update: Apparently there are slightly different versions of the Jokerized, this one has him with a red lightsaber:

[flash width=425 height=355]http://www.youtube.com/v/5oc_2bWgHZ4[/flash]

The Bat-droppings gag is hilarious. This thing is like a Stan Brakhage film on (even more) acid, nice find.

"Rich People Suck" these people need a fucking raise !!

...and here we, go!


3rd TRAILER!

1080
720
480

Love this one! Burning money!




Scarecrow




Sweet Home Chicago




Dent




Rachel



Here's my card



These pics are not mine.

Interesting choice for the Dent photo - that's the one little snap of Two-Face in the movie.

Anyway, I hope there aren't any more good trailers coming out soon because, between this and Indy yesterday, I just blew my load twice and my girlfriend might start to get jealous.

Nice grabs TDK. I never noticed the Scarecrow or Two-Face shots on the big screen, you can even see a bit of Harvey's tattered suit on his left shoulder in the trailer.

EDIT: LA Times just posted an interview with Eckhart wherein he talks about TDK and Harvey in general. Here's a link but be warned, a MAJOR spoiler is mentioned and more details than I wanted to know are given about his character's role in the film:

Interview with Aaron Eckhart

Sounds great.

As expected, Eckhart seems perfectly cast as Dent. I can't wait to see what he does with his few scenes as Bad Harvey.

I find Joker's scarring pretty interesting. I noticed that even the right side of his bottom lip looks a little mangled. I really don't buy the idea that those scars are from being cut with a blade.

By the way, does anyone know if the part with Scarecrow and the Batman wannabes is going to be the only time we see him?

I'm going to be real disappointed if the Joker and the Scarecrow don't meet up at some point in the film.



From the spoilers, I would have assumed Joker burned the money himself, but he looks seriously fucking pissed.

found some major spoilers for you peeps, here: http://forums.superherohype.com/showthread.php?t=301886

ya been warned!
[spoil]
[align=left]* joker escapes the police Precinct which he blows up and leaves Harvey dent for dead. The joker is the one who scars Harvey. The joker wanted to get himself arrested in order to distract everyone and to blow up the Precinct because he wants to kill Harvey Dent and he knew Harvey was going to interrogate him.

* Joker kills Rachel in the party that he crashes, where Harvey Dent announces his engagement to Rachel Dawes, same day he becomes engaged she dies

I'm not reading anymore. that's enough for me! I'm out till the movie opens.

Gentlemen,

'Two Face' Harvey:



Please note that this is considered concept art. I would expect the scarring to be a little less even on the face (which was in evidence on the blurry action figure photos) in the film itself but close (to the comic) nonetheless.

That's a bit too much, if you ask me.

This contradicts Eric Roberts's statement in the December 2007 FHM UK.

[spoil]

[/spoil]

Like DDD said, the final look will probably be a little nearer to the action figure.



That being said, the concept art is is especially close to Two-Face's look in The Long Halloween.

wow that two-face pic looks pretty messed up, imagine peoples reactions in the theater seeing it for the 1st time. funny enough tho as i came onto this thread i was listening to the original batman theme from'89, must say im really looking forward to this movie dam will it be BADASS!!

i'm not gonna look. i'm not gonna look. Bearvomit covers eyes and runs away from thread for two months.

edit* DAMMIT ALL I looked. i'm such a fucking pussy fan-boy. just couldn't wait could I? have to spoil the whole fucking movie and know every damn line they say. fuck

I think this is the look for the film. WB is asking for it to be removed from the usual sites. I wouldn't go by the look of the toy. Nolan will try to push PG-13 as far as he can - for better or worse.

It's not even anatomically correct. What the hell is with the cheek muscle?

I don't even see how he could talk.

The toy seemed a lot more in line with what Nolan's been doing with the baddies. I just can't imagine Nolan having a Two-Face with perfectly symmetrical burns, for instance.

Publicity Stills












Behind the Scenes

wow, where did you find all of the stills?

Y'know, I'm all for Batman being able to turn his head, but the close ups look like a Pez dispenser.

I just realized that this shot is most likely from during the beatdown. He's sitting there on the floor, after being pummeled, and giving Batman an "I'm bored" look.

Wow, you don't know how much I agree with you, I mean, that's (so far) in my opinion the ONLY thing that is not working for me in this film (yet): The suit.


I love what they did with the Joker, what they did with Two Face, Gordon, Lucius, Alfred, hell even the Batmobile and BatPod, but that suit, it's like, I don't know. Hopefully after this flick is released, I'll accept it and move on.

Couple of TV Spots here:

[flash width=425 height=355]http://www.youtube.com/v/MfEntCLJ-eI[/flash]

It's the line in the trailer, "I know now what I must become..." that sells me not only on the new suit but also the new gear in the flick. It's like they're taking the idea of this man who becomes a suited protector in order to save his city to its next step where he then becomes a war machine (to borrow a name from another comic) that will stop at nothing to cleanse his city of crime. Atleast that's where I think Nolan's taking it. That doesn't mean that I'm going to be disappointed if the film doesn't pan out in that manner.

Did anybody save Duke's stills? Appreciate a re-up.
