"The Dark Knight" 2008 !!!!!!!!!

[DarkArtist81]

3 new Comcast videos - https://www.comcast.net/thedarkknightmovie/

Don't know if they are "spoilerish." Haven't watched them. Plan to watch them when I get home, from the comfort of the couch OnDemand.

Cool videos! Nothing spoilerish... and one was a tease for a History Channel special... Can't wait for that.

SPOILERISH







Damn it, damn it, damn it! Between the new TV spot and that review - I'm spoiled! I love trailers - but I really don't want plot points.

THose weer great videos. I loved the "Filming in Chicago" segment (since it brought back memories, and why not?)

I had no idea they did a lot there. It's gonna be amazing to see on the screen.

And Munch, if you're jealous that I got to see some filming, imagine how jealous I was that my pharmacy school friend happened to live in the high rise apartment that was blocks away from where they were shooting every night!!
He would call me on school nights saying he saw this, or tell me that he heard an explosion coming home from the coffee shop he studied at. He'd see the helicopters filming over Chicago river. He saw the 18 wheeler flip on La Salle Street(which was 2 streets over from his apartment and is where the building that stands for Wayne Enterprises is).
On the day of the marching scene where he and I went to watch them film, we passed the set of Wanted, and I was like, "Oh, it's just the Angelina Jolie movie". I was more excited about Batman, I guess

hey Buttmunch did you know one of your pics got editors choice...if that means much of anything?

Yeah I saw that! No idea. Maybe I'll get a little something extra when/if they send us stuff for sending them in. Or maybe it will be featured on a Gotham Tonight, which would be just as cool if not cooler since it would officially make me part of the movie experience

Your friend sucks!

But they filmed Wanted in Chicago too? I guess that was great for Morgan Freeman. Set hopping!

Yeah, it was funny too cause most of the paparazzi were finding out where Angelina and Brad were, so they mostly left the Dark Knight set alone. The security guys on The Dark Knight also told random people that there was a bigger movie being filmed blocks away in hopes that people would go there and not watch them film.

That's pretty funny... Good for them though! Bad for Jolie and co.

Oscar talk building already for Heath here in town.

Of course we covered that months ago on this thread.

Amazing group here.

Indeed, Paul! Great minds think alike.

I hope Heath does get a nom at least, I'd be lobbying for him even if he were still here with us. He put a lot of himself into the character, going far beyond what was needed to give us the best performance of his career. I'm just happy to hear that the film is the same caliber as he was while making it, gives him more of a chance. He deserves it...

And I love how the tone has changed from before anything was out there, Heath blew everyone away... even his naysayers.

Yep, he will get a Nod as many of us predicted. I hope he wins and think he may be the first posthumous Winner since Finch. This town is behind him as are we. Once the Film is released it will become a mantra.

Damn 2 1/2 hours!!! Hell yes!! All the more Batman I can get!!!!

Totally! 2 1/2 is perfect, plenty of room for cool character stuff! And with this cast of A listers it deserves seeing these great Actors perform.

Did you guys see that a lot of IMAX theaters are adding a second showing after the 12:01 show? Mine has one up for 3 AM now!!!

I may make it a Dark Knight marathon!!!

 

[Sick Boy 82]

Nope taking Friday off and just gonna see it that first IMAX showing on Friday morning. I hate the midnight showings. I'm usually way to tired to appreciate it most of the time.

Yeah, I'm going to a matinee opening day with a fresh head. It's all gonna be fresh from here on out. I hope they have the Pod out in front of Graumanns.

 

[Buttmunch]

I will be going to IMAX at midnight and regular for a Saturday Matinee. Only me, my brother,and dad want to see it in IMAX, so we thought we'd go before the rest of the family and do the midnight showing.

There is yet another article, this time on MSN, that loves the Dark Knight and saying Ledger deserves an Oscar.

 

[McHavyck]

if anyone who doesn't have Comcast and wants to know what interesting facts sre revealed in the Gotham Tonight spots, i posted them in the spoiler thread.

Plan right now is to catch the midnight showing, first matinee the next day, and one that evening with my wife.

Man, I'm getting so pumped for this movie, and it's punching me in the gut having to wait past opening day. Between taking off for my trip and not wanting to read any reactions in here, I'm going to be a ghost in here that whole opening weekend until I see it on Monday. My gut says I'm watching it once, walking out and buying a ticket to the next show.
