Eckhart speaks a bit (some spoilerish stuff in the story, be warned):
"That's right, people don't really know yet," actor Aaron Eckhart said with grin. "I can tell you that, basically, when you look at Two-Face, you should get sick to your stomach. Being the guy under all that, well, that was a lot of fun for me. It's like you would feel if you met someone whose face had pretty much been ripped off or burned off with acid. I can't talk about it beyond that because I don't want to give away too much of the plans by Chris."...In the comic books, the wounds come from a splash of acid thrown at the attorney by a gangster on the witness stand, but there are hints that in this film it might be the Joker who is responsible for the scars.Eckhart won't discuss that, but he did say that the wounds are structurally deeper than in the comics: "There are fans on the Internet who have done artist's versions of what they think it will look like, and I can tell you this: They're thinking small; Chris is going way farther than people think."

isn't there meant to be a new trailer online today?
― Gukbe, Sunday, 4 May 2008 08:08 (sixteen years ago) link
This is the new trailer, I think.
I don't know. Still looks good. But The Joker looks less sinister and imposing in this one. Maybe it's unfair to compare it to the first trailer.

oh ok.

i'm kinda slow
andy dick as the joker would have been kind of terrifying.

I'm not sure if I like these new Batman character designs. In the first movie we had pumpkin-head Batman, and now there's the greasy-haired Juggalo Joker.
― Tuomas, Sunday, 4 May 2008 21:50 (sixteen years ago) link
I certainly prefer the dandy Joker.
greasy-haired Juggalo Joker.
lol
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 May 2008 21:53 (sixteen years ago) link
He's been giving head to some Juggalette, too, given how scattershot its application is.

Sending Heath out in style, at least:

This is easily the blockbuster I'm most excited about this year.

Kinda like Andy Dick, but without the over-the-top feyness.
I am SO excited for this movie. So.
― B.L.A.M., Saturday, 31 May 2008 16:44 (sixteen years ago) link
Yeah, it's really still the only one I'm all opening-night-must-see about over the next couple of months.
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 31 May 2008 16:50 (sixteen years ago) link
I will see this. Also, I had no idea Gotham City is supposed to be in New Jersey.
― burt_stanton, Tuesday, 10 June 2008 14:27 (sixteen years ago) link
I think it's supposed to be further south on the Eastern Seaboard in the comics.

I'm not an uber comics geek, but weird. I guess it makes sense these days... New Jersey is more "New York City" than New York right now.

from the Jeffrey Wells blog:
A non-USA exhibition source told me this evening that The Dark Knight's running time has been confirmed at 152 minutes.
HE reader Mgmax has explained the evolution in two lines: "In the 1950s and early '60s we had long, self-important movies about Jesus. In the 21st Century we have long, self-important movies about Batman."
― Dr Morbius, Friday, 13 June 2008 17:48 (sixteen years ago) link
"And Jesus stayed three days within the Batcave..."
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 13 June 2008 17:48 (sixteen years ago) link
fuck mgmax, the trailer for this looked incredible
also batman > jesus

true story: my friend K. is in this, and snuck off set with Gary Oldman to go waterskiing, but a change in shooting plans necessitated Nolan send a helicopter after, to drag them back for a walk-through shot. they arrived on set in their swimsuits, and to punish them Nolan insisted they costume-change in front of everybody. according to K., he has never been more humbled by the shape and girth of an old guy's... equipment.

yeah those are its
so many incredible shots just in the trailers alone, i dont really get how anyone could watch those & not be hyped for this
― deeznuts, Friday, 13 June 2008 18:14 (sixteen years ago) link
i like eckhart's line towards the end of trailer #3. it's total FORESHADOWING bullshit but it's good.
― omar little, Friday, 13 June 2008 18:18 (sixteen years ago) link
Jack Nicholson all the way, but at least this Batman is trying to bring the scary back, this years Joker ain't nothing to fuck with. I cannot BELIEVE Aaron Eckhart is two face & I'm chewing my fingernails with the anticipation. Its not crass to say that because of Heath's tragic death and everything this movie is going to SELL?
― VeronaInTheClub, Friday, 13 June 2008 18:31 (sixteen years ago) link
yeah this is the first movie for me in awhile that is truly a MUST-SEE-IN-THEATER type, in a way that IJ & iron man werent
also really not a fan of people being all "hey its a comic book lighten up"; im so sick of the self-aware wink-wink bullshit these kinds of movies all have these days
i dont think heath's passing is gonna be a factor at all btw
― deeznuts, Friday, 13 June 2008 18:33 (sixteen years ago) link
totally agree...all those movies suck so bad, I want some dark, cynical dystopian shit in comix movies...these need to be more alan moore and less jon favreau
I'm mad excited for DK and yeah it is definitely a see-it-in-theaters thing for the first time maybe of the year?
