LOTS of behind the scenes shots

obama?

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

I'm gonna need all those in HiRes, on my desk by tomorrow morning.



Did Nolan lose weight as filming progressed? Or just layers of clothing?

 

[DMczaf]

[Dabanton]

Probably layers of clothing.:lol

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

Can we get BenjaminBirdie in here for an official "We Run This Shit" jpg?

 

[Guzim]

I can't wait to ask him what his favorite vest is!

 

[DMczaf]

:lol

[Cereal]

Yes sir!!

Any other requests, sir?

I just got the regular 2-disc version from NCSX on Friday, but this steelbook version may be too sexy to pass up. Double-dipping on TDK is alright though. Totally worth it in my opinion. My friends and family already think I'm insane for paying $50 to get the blu-ray 2 weeks early :lol

To me, just being able to watch TDK on Thanksgiving is well worth it, not to mention coming from a reliable vendor

Whats that device Nolan is carrying around his neck?

If Heath doesn't win this, something is seriously fucked up.

They got another one for Best Picture as well:

Who was the dumbfuck that didn't at least fade out the top right a bit where the text was (for the Best Picture poster)?

 

[Masked Man]

:O :O :O

This has to happen. Anything else would be a travesty. I loved the Best Picture ad, too, but this one... He just has to win.

I don't see any problems with it. Maybe if it was as large as the first one, it would look better.

 

[Guzim]

I would love to have that as a poster.

When you pick up an issue of Variety, it looks pretty good.

I can't find the Best Picture ad.

that one?

 

[Zoltrix]

Showed TDK to my parents and, of course, they loved it I thought it was pretty funny when they got into a debate about whether or not Two-Face was dead and when I told them the script says Harvey Dent is dead, they agreed that Two-Face is for sure still alive and will be in the next one. Then I brought up the Riddler and my mom actually knew who he was :S I doubt they fully understood the film though.

 

[Extollere]

when does this come out on DVD? is there any more info like what kind of behind the scenes junk we'll get?

 

[Snowman Prophet of Doom]

I want Heath to win Best Actor, personally, but I'll take Best Supporting Actor as long as he fucking gets it. I'd actually give it Best Picture of what I've seen so far this year (which has not included any of the 'Oscar material', to be fair).

That's bullshit...

Everybody knows he's the main character of that movie. :D

 

[-COOLIO-]

hey i was wondering, is the suit suppose to have a voice changer in it or is bruce suppose to just be gritifying his voice?

it sounds like Bale is just putting on a badass dude voice IRL but im wondering what it's suppose to be in the movie

 

[Penguin]

Random fact I just saw toward.

I didn't know that HArvey Dent was originally named Harvey Kent.. guess didn't want people to think related to Superman.

 

[WyndhamPrice]

Heath is far more likely to win the Oscar posthumously as Supporting Actor.

A win is a win as long as he gets something, I don't really care what category.

It's Bale's pornstar voice. It began in the first movie and was exaggerated ridiculously in TDK. I couldn't even understand some of the things Bats was saying in this one.

It's probably just supposed to be Bruce using a grittier voice. There's nothing covering his mouth, so it couldn't be a voice modifier.

And I don't think we're supposed to take this aspect of the movie so seriously.

the gritty voice isnt too bad but a voice changer would sound cooler, and i dont think it'd have to cover his mouth, it could be placed by his voice box in the suit.

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

Given how The Dark Knight improved upon BB's negative qualities so superbly (not being able to turn your head), you can pretty much guarantee that he's gonna have a voice modifier in the 3rd one since it's only thing anyone seems to bitch about when it comes to TDK:lol

It's Bale's badass voice.


I'd assume the point is to make it harder for people to know who he is.

I mean... Bale has a certain mouth movement that pretty much gives him away, but the people of Gotham don't know that.

Totally agreed. As it has been mentioned, though, I would be more than happy if he were to receive, say, Best Supporting Actor. As long as he is recognized for have done such an ineffably wonderful job, then I will be satisfied.

It will all be worth it if only to hear how much they ham it up pre-voice change like they did with the suits bulk in TDK.

 

[Lion Heart]

Just ordered the blu ray for a total of 24.90 Canadian after tax and shipping. Thanks Amazon.ca!!!

This will be my first Blu ray.

 

[Talladega Knight]

That's exactly it. That and the fact he's trying to be intimidating and/or strike fear into others.

An unofficial campaign to help secure it a nomination. They have a pretty decent promo video with it too.

I thought that promo was incredibly edited. Definitely on the bandwagon.

Seriously. Chills.

Pretty much summed up about 60% of the reasons why this movie is so incredible (that's totally a compliment. Even TDK's own advertising couldn't chalk up that much without going into spoilers). The way it was cut really helped emphasized the incredible cinematography.

Ending was the best,


"You think I want to escape from this?"
*cue Batman and Joker, "escaping"*

Yup. And the raw emotion of the film. At it's heart, Dark Knight is really a tragedy. The movie tore me up, and it hasn't left my mind since the last viewing. Dent's story really hit me.

Can't believe I nearly forgotten just how incredible the film was.

I really really can't wait to get my hands on the Blu-ray to relive it and feel emotionally drained at the end all over again.

So true. So true.

i keep trying to wrap my my mind around how this is connected to Batman Begins. I love BB, really, honest to god, one of my top 3 all time favorites. But TDK...it's just on another level. A level I didn't know existed. It's really hard to imagine they're in the same universe. Watching them back to back just will feel so odd. BB is such a personal story, told from a direct POV. The Dark Knight is simply...larger than life. Larger than life. Everything about it. They just feel so different, yet they're in the same universe. The 3rd film is gonna have to tie them together in some way. I'd love to hear more about Bruce's father, he was a cool dude.

I'm about to ramble, so, in summation: I saw bot h these films opening weekends in theaters and came away thinking two distinct things. Batman Begins is everything I wanted in a film. The Dark Knight is everything I never knew I wanted in a film. Simply put.

Holy fuck, that was amazing.


Kinda off topic, but for my last paper in my literature class, the Professor asked us to compare Lord of the Flies' themes of civility versus savagery to another work (film, song, etc). I'm kinda thinking of comparing it to The Dark Knight. You guys think it could work?

 

[TheKingsCrown]

I'm sorry, so is the DVD actually coming out finally? OMG mine if it is...

Yes, actually. I think there are a number of interesting civility / savage themes in the Dark Knight

 

[Zoltrix]

I want to buy a Blu-Ray player just for this movie. I have to convince my parents to go next-gen... I definitely don't have the $$$

 

[smokeymicpot]

I was at blockbuster today and they had over 100 copy's of the Dark Knight just there. I asked i could buy they said no.

 

[Penguin]

That was awesome.

Even though seen the movie 5 times still makes me intrigue to see it again.

I saw the movie multiple times in theatres, and nerded out over it in this thread many times during July/August. But now that I think about it, Ive barely thought about the film since. Perhaps the film doesnt have staying power, at least with me personally.
