I saw this before I am Legend, not knowing it was coming up.  The action sequences looked amazing, and I'm happy to see Batman on a motorcycle.  Since I have total faith in Christopher Nolan, I am positive this movie will rule like the first one.

This trailer is pretty meh, but anyone else saw the 6 minute clip that surfaced of the bankrobbing? I watched it in horrible quality but that was pretty rad.


Other than that I agree with climbtree. Joker's appeal has always been that he's completey crazy, and not aware of himself doing bad things. Still, this movie looks like it's gonna kick ass so idk.

It's really too bad that Christian Bale is back as Batman though, as he can't act and he looks like a rubber monkey.  I hated Batman Begins, but I think about 85% of that was because of Bale....

Death to the unbelievers!

But...but I'm Acid...

*masturbates with other fanboys*

It looked pretty good to me expect I heard that there was an Imax preview or something that lasted about 6 minutes....Maybe I'll go watch I am legend just for that? :P

oh and biohazard movies suck balls.

Anyway, I love the trailer. Seriously, it's really cool. The Joker looks great, and Christian Bale looks phenomenal as always (!)... Also, I read that in order for Heath Ledger to prepare for the Joker's scenes and filming and such, he spent an ENTIRE MONTH ALONE in a hotel room! He reputedly watched A Clockwork Orange and read The Killing Joke and Arkham Asylum: A Serious House in a Serious Earth comic books that were prime examples of a 'dark' Joker, to prepare himself. More background knowledge!!

Man, actors are really weird people

Also I'm sure Batman Begins had lots of special effects but Christopher Nolan did do his first movie for like $50 or something. The murder weapon was a HAMMER

I agree, Heath Ledger looks great as the Joker. I can't even bitch about how his face isn't full of that insane smile. This take on a completely psycho Joker is awesome. I really can't wait. Batman Begins was pure sweetness. This will follow suit. (So will the next one with Two Face.)

Two-Face is in this one as well as the Joker. The Joker is the 'main' antagonist, but it also shows the rise of Two-Face, as he goes from being Bruce Wayne's friend to the criminal that we know him as. So, we see him go from Harvey Dent to Two-Face.

For those who don't know, Heath Ledger was found dead today...
I'm pretty bummed about this. I was/am really excited for his potrayal of the Joker, just sad to watch someone who died recently on the big screen in a few months.

From what I know he completed all his filming for the movie so I don't think it will be put on hold or anything, but I guess this rules out any other Joker appearance in future Batman films connected to these two.

What a waste.

Apparently a drug overdose so... damn you Heath Ledger. So pointless.

It's ironic how people compared him to Brandon Lee because his makeup as the Joker was similar to Lee's The Crow, and then both died before their films were complete.

Apparently they are..in a way. It was sleeping pills, he was saying for a few weeks he had to take some as he wasn't getting enough sleep to play as the joker which...is pretty fuking hard spot to fil.

Pretty sad stuff. He looks like he'll make a pretty intresting Joker though.

Does anyone else think Batmans bike looks like its straight out of Advent Children?
