Some more DARK KNIGHT news for all of you via Latino Review. Remember last month, when I told you about the 7 minute DARK KNIGHT prologue that was going to debut with IMAX copies of I AM LEGEND? Well it’s since been reported that this prologue will actually be the first 7 minutes of the film.
Well Latino Review got word on exactly what’s going down for The Joker’s debut in the flick! You can head over here to check it out, or just look below. Mind you, these are some major SPOILERS! It sounds like it sets up the plot for most of the movie, so READ WITH CAUTION!
Latino Review reports: The Dark Knight begins with the Joker robbing a huge bank (we’ve seen photos of this everywhere). The bank is where the mob and all the gangs in Gotham keep all of their money. The Joker takes this money and holds it “ransom”. The Joker then says to the mob and the gangs of Gotham, “If you help me take down Batman, you’ll get your money back. If not, I’m going to burn it all.” This is how the Joker assembles his army to take down Batman.
Not sure how I take this. I guess I was assuming all the bad guys were sided with The Joker because they want to be, but doing it this way just adds that much more to The Joker character. And word has been buzzing like mad on Ledger’s performance as the white faced maniac. July 18, 2008. Like you didn’t know.
