Awesome! It's so cool to see new pics from an 8 year old movie
That's the first we've seen of his Joker journal! I remember reading interviews where he mentioned that. I hope they release more pics or info about it. I don't see it as a way of disrespecting his memory as much of a way to appreciate him more as an actor and everything he did for that role.

That lion cat was awesome, I figured you were metawhoring me as a cat who thinks he's a lion.

The soundtrack was pretty bland.
It was alright. I don't think any of them are that great but I'd say TDK is probably the best of the three.

The problem is, they got less musical, and more bombastic. Not to mention reusing cues.
The best stuff from TDK was the Dogs Chasing Cars theme, and Harvey's theme. The rest...eh.
Begins wins out for me because it was all new.

I went to go find a review to prove you wrong but it proved me ridiculous instead:
High Def Digest:
The Audio: Rating the Sound
Thanks to its bombastic, concussive and ultra-aggressive 5.1 DTS-HD MA track, your neighbors are gonna loathe the day you bring home 'The Dark Knight Rises' on Blu-ray. (Just ask mine. Since I started this review, the guy below me has responded by turning his always-loud-and-repetitive-dance-music up to 11. But joke's on him -- I'm still 20dB below reference.)
Some will argue the IMAX footage is the star of this Blu-ray release, but this is perhaps the best six channel sound mix I've ever heard. Many of you probably remember the controversy earlier in 2012 following the release of the film's six minute IMAX trailer. I can personally attest that Bane's digitally manipulated voice was lost in the gunfire, jet engines, and tearing metal carnage. In the cinemas, this was corrected, and on Blu-ray, I can't say if things were further altered, but Bane's voice is a definite highlight. While every piece of dialog in the film is complete clear and prioritized, Bane's extends across the entire front sound stage conveying a sense of power and brute strength.
Sound effects, music, and LFE complete the sonic masterpiece. Individual effects are clear and resolute; panning right to left and front to back is exceptionally immersive, as are world-building crowd sequences like Wall Street and the football stadium. Han Zimmer's grinding electronic score is like a full on orchestral in your living room. Bass-lovers rise and cheers, because this Blu-ray is a room shaker, but never over done. The bass notes are crisp and punchy, adding an overall sense of dread and tension. And don't worry, it's not just that this track is loud, which of course it is, but it has so much range from the quietest moment to the most bombastic.
In fact, I enjoyed this soundtrack so much I have no complaints. This reference quality sound mix will test any system and, if not properly handled, annoy the neighbors. If Nolan's team can do this with 5.1, I can't wait for his first official 7.1 or Dolby ATMOS mix.
Reviewer is wrong, i'm right.

That joker journal has been circling tumblr for a while. I think it may be fan-made.

Hey man if Hans Zimmer scored a movie of mine I think it'd be even louder than TDKR

Man, never thought I could stretch my 3 minutes of fame for this long
It wasn't even 3 minutes.

I see that phrase banded around ALOT when anything regarding His performance is mentions, including recasting the joker as someone else for DKR, instead of tweaking the story to be Bane ( it's a rumor, don't know if it's true)
It's like people forget He Was an actor.. and Actors have a Creed..
The Show MUST go on.
I tend to think Ledger cared more about the art form, than he did about his own ego, and i think it showed in the calibur of performences he tended to put out there. as well as the level of work he put into his craft.
Just my opinion.

It's weird the diary clip is all over the place today, when the full bit has been around for a while now.

That's how social media works. Something goes unnoticed for months or years, and then boom.
