Despite its poor quality and highly unconvincing nature, dozens upon dozens of readers have called our attention to this supposed "leaked" teaser trailer for the upcoming Batman bombardment THE DARK KNIGHT. But you don't really need to let us know any more.

It's a fake, people. A fabrication. Totally bogus. Counterfeit. Spurious. A sham, forgery, phony. It's nothing resembling a real teaser trailer. I can safely make this statement in no uncertain terms, just in case the heinous lighting and amateurish content (which the makers attempted to mask with "bootleg" bobbing camera) of the clearly fan-crafted footage itself wasn't indication enough.

If you're still determined, wishful Bat-fans, check out the questionable clip RIGHT HERE and decide for yourselves. And take solace in knowing that the eventual official teaser will be far more professional and satisfying, whenever we actually get to see it. (Unless that goofy-looking Batcycle is in it...)

Extra Tidbit: How come fans haven't made a fake trailer for THE MUMMY 3 yet? Wait, I think I answered my own question...

Despite the fact
that sounds nothing like Heath Ledger, that's actually kinda cool. I wouldn't be very happy if that was the teaser, but I wouldn't be too pissed either.

real or fake
yeah, i agree with Rukas. that's what i was getting at, I think it could turn out to be real, but im not saying i believe that for sure. i think it'd be funny if it was real too.

He's going to laugh. Cackle... Hmmmno. That would ruin his character.

it could deffinintly be fake and i'm hoping for more for the first teaser BUT....the reason it looked crappy and the camera shook...stay with me here...is it was being filmed by a camcorder while it played on the TV. watching the footage itself, it didn't look shakey. and...the joker is going to have some sort of cackle so that's not out of the question. and besides, if you were going to make a...

It's fucking pathetic
I can't believe that some people actually think The Joker will laugh like Jesse D. Goins from RoboCop. Why the hell would Nolan have this in the script: "The essence of laughter"?



Is it possible to accomplish more gay status than that?

its funny
It's funny because people are so desperate to believe that anything they see related to Dark Knight is real and that they got the first scoop, the first glimpse at it. The people who made this are probably laughing that they made headlines because of it.



People sure are desperate, I mean use rational thought - how could that be real? God.

how did people think this was real???
its obviously amateur (ie handycam, use of "zoom" feature, editing). Fun, but obviously fake. I've seen other fake TDK trailers and this is not one of the better ones.

Actually the shakiness is what gives it a more realistic feeling, like it was videotaped in a clandestine manner as well as the quality of video and the fact that it's being streamed, but yeah, the footage still looks totally fake, I mean, cards? sure, it's the joker.. but they decided to just throw cards at a table? wow. Way to get the fans exited.

Yah that I have no idea how anyone could think its real. I would be pretty upset if that WERE real considering the terrible quality.

Completely Fake...
Worst fan made trailer I've ever seen... The least they could have done was use a tripod when they filmed the bat logo at the end. We will get a teaser soon enough and it will be much, much better than that.
