Concept Joker vs Heath Joker

This is the concept photo/art of the Joker’s face. The finalised Heath Ledger version (right) was among the very first Joker pics released on the net. And we thought that was scary. I think people might piss in their pants if Joker had looked like the concept art.

Go to Cinematical for more. I got it from them anyways. However, the rest of the pics aren’t too scary.

Batman Trailer Goodies II

The second trailer had been out for quite some time now. But I wanted to wait for the hi-res version to be online before I start to watch it for clues and interesting stuff.

Let’s jump right in…
Dark Knight Trailer
Batman overlooking the city, helmet in his arms. No cape.

Dark Knight Trailer
Closer shot, he’s got no cape for this jump!

Dark Knight Trailer
Finally spelunking eh?

Dark Knight Trailer
Split second frame. Look who’s in the car that Batman jumped right on! Looks like someone familiar eh? Scarecrow returns! Or I could be wrong…

Dark Knight Trailer
I also noticed that Joker has a habit of licking his lips often. As can be seen here.

Dark Knight Trailer
Is that money Joker’s burning? The psycho don’t give a shit about money then…

Dark Knight Trailer
The tank of gasoline/fuel. What’s it for?

Dark Knight Trailer
Later on you see Harvey Dent’s face pushed down into it. I could only assume that somehow the liquid caught fire and erodes Dent’s face away.

Dark Knight Trailer
Joker pushes/lets go of Dawes from a high storey window. Probably when he crashed Wayne’s charity ball.

Dark Knight Trailer
The very famous screencap that shows hints of Two Face. Note the jacket’s left side, which is similar to the concept shot in the previous entry. So I guess that’s confirmed authentic.

Dark Knight Trailer
“This city deserves a better class of criminals, and I’m gonna give it to ‘em. You’ll see, I’ll show you…” Who is Joker talking to in this bit? I’m pretty sure he’s face to face with Batman.  As can be seen by this released image.

Dark Knight Trailer
And later on, you can see Batman smashing Joker into the wall of the interrogation room.

I can’t bloody wait.

Two Face Revealed.

I almost spit out my coffee as I was reading the rss feeds today. Angry Zen Master had a post titled Harvey Dent Thanks You For Smoking. Then there was this image.

Two Face revealed

This ‘ere, ladies and gentlemen, is Two Face, finally revealed, God knows from where. It hasn’t found its way to many websites yet, at the moment of my writing. It looks too real to be fake. And it’s F*CKING SCARY!

It makes you wanna take a poop on Tommy Lee Jones’ version of Two Face.

I was already excited when they revealed the slight scarring on Dent’s face in ONE frame in the new trailer. But this… oh man… it’s too much…

The anticipation for the movie Dark Knight is killing me! Maybe killing me more than the anticipation of my FYP selection results tomorrow.

You’d think Joker’s evil face was scary, but Two Face would probably put him to shame.

Heath Ledger, the Joker, is Dead

Holy crap. I was reading thru my morning RSS feeds as usual when I saw the news reported on several sites across the net.

The man who plays Joker in the yet to release Batman movie… is dead.

He was found dead in his apartment. Reasons unknown. I know it’s not right to relate such a news to the publicity of the movie but I can’t help but remember some things he did to prepare himself for the Joker role.

It’s probably some other reasons but suicide/overdose seem to be the biggest suspects.

Well, that’s a shock. Damn.

Batman Trailer Goodies

I’ve been meaning to do this ever since the hi def trailer was released. It might be a bit late, but I just wanna point out some goodies I’ve spotted after geekishly forwarding and rewinding the trailer frame by frame.

So, in random order, here they are.

The first thing is this scene before it zooms in to Bruce Wayne sitting on the chair. You can see his armguard thing from the batsuit lying on the floor. *pointed out by Joe Kool.

Then, it zooms in to Wayne, and you can see that he’s in the batsuit, looking at his cowl. I heard and read somewhere that this isn’t even in Gotham City. Hong Kong maybe?

Batman overlooking the city. At this angle, that new armourish suit doesn’t look that bad.

Joker in the police car. Notice that the car is swerving around, even though it’s a straight road. Something must’ve happened to the cops driving the car. And if I can remember, the driver seat is on the left, but looks like it’s empty eh?

I think this might JUST be the modified batcave. Reminds me of the Matrix virtual armory. See the elevator-like thing right in the middle? If it is the batcave, it’s a little too bright isn’t it?

Before the scene where the batsignal got smashed, there was a split second showing who’s responsible for smashing it with an axe. Looks a hell lot like commissioner Gordon eh?

I thought they didn’t put Two Face anywhere in the trailer, but hey, look who’s circled in the picture above. It’s Harvey Dent!

Check it out! It’s Alfred! He got a “oh bugger” look on his face as Joker comes in to crash the party.

Joker is clapping his hands in prison. Ooooh how very psychotic! Look at the sharp, black fingernails.

A shot of the batpod firing a shot into some debris to clear the path.

The scene where Joker is in jail. He’s put in isolation. No one else in the cell but him. And he seem to be taunting the cops, the way he’s sitting and looking at them.

This is the bat signal being destroyed by Commissioner Gordon. Wait, is he commissioner already? Last we saw, he was a lieutenant. Hmmm….

Joker at his psychotic greatness again.

And yes, there’s a Starbucks in Gotham also, even with its corruption and all.

The batpod rolling.

This scene is awesome. Somehow it reminded me of the scene in Tim Burton’s Batman where Batman flew his plane down and tries to shoot Joker while Joker simply stood there unmoved. This time, Batman’s on the batpod.

I shouldn’t have written this when I’m this sleepy. Could’ve made more observations, but if I don’t write this now, I’ll probably not write it at all.

Ok, that’s it, I guess. I can’t wait for more goodies and the movie itself. More entries to come. Stay tuned.

Apparently, the Dark Knight trailer was leaked. I didn’t want to watch it, but I gave in eventually. This is a screencap from the trailer. Actually, I wouldn’t recommend watching it so early. The quality sucks.

Still think he’s not messed up? Hehehahahahahhawah Whahahahahwahhaha!

The Joker

This… is… the… Joker.

This.. was the Joker. Can the new Joker surpass the old, timeless, Joker?

Batman, on the other hand… well, I’m not putting his picture here, yet. I have my reasons… I’ll just watch him in action in the movie itself.

But the joker… wow. Hell yeah.

These are promo pics apparently leaked. There are more pics here, but don’t click unless you want to see Batman’s new umm… look?
