Very nice! That's one of the best The Dark Knight posters yet! :tup:

Apparently the ending has been leaked. :)

.

It's a fake.

It just shows clips from the trailer, a stupid Wii commerical and a picture of Adam West saying "The good guy wins!" and "The bad guy loses!"

:tup:

We're in for a treat if The Dark Knight ends with two people playing Wii intercut with the Joker/Batman showdown from the trailer. :(

Magnificent poster--and I'm more convinced than ever that a legendary performance awaits us. And that 90% of all viewers either:
Don't know KL is dead.
Or they don't give a hoot.

KL, you have joined The Immortals.

Why do you call him KL? His name is Heath Ledger...

Empire magazine released two covers, one of Joker and one of Batman. The Batman cover is awful, just look at that nose. http://www.ropeofsil...magazine_covers

You're right, the Batman cover sucks! Reminds me of an angry pigeon. Seriously.

Haha! Yeah, suppose so! Well, in Batman Forever he's referred to as "a flying rodent"!

The Dark Knight Score Coming July 15.

"The Dark Knight Original Motion Picture Soundtrack" -- the haunting score to the hotly anticipated feature film The Dark Knight -- will be released by Warner Bros. Records on July 15, 2008, three days before the movie opens nationwide on July 18th.

Composers Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard, who collaborated on the score for the 2005 blockbuster Batman Begins, were asked by director Christopher Nolan to work together again, scoring its follow-up, The Dark Knight. The duo recorded the orchestral soundtrack for the film in London this April.

Warner Bros. Records will release four different configurations of "The Dark Knight soundtrack: a standard jewel case CD, a 2 LP set of heavy-weight 180 gram vinyl version, a special edition digipack, and a collector's edition with special artwork to come after release.

Hopefully the score will be more memorable than the score for BEGINS, which was one of the film's major failings.

Even less memorable was the score for IRON MAN. Terrible stuff.

The signature Batman movie score is still Elfman's Batman Returns, but I'll remain hopeful for this one.

I'd give it to Elfman's Batman over his Batman Returns.

Batman Returns is a very good score indeed, but it never really connects with the character of Batman (as with the film, it's far more preoccupied with Catwoman and the Penguin than the man himself). Batman has the best arrangement of the main theme, "Descent into Mystery," and "Up the Cathedral," all three of which provide the perfect musical snapshot of the character.

I can't recall any sort of theme from IM. Just some cover of "Iron Man" during the credits.

Definitely fair points.

I'll agree the the Returns score is focused more on the Penguin and Catwoman. And strangely enough, it is somehow a million times better because of that for me personally. The tracks specifically for Selina Kyle, plus the magnificent opening cue... just fantastic. :tup:

I'll have to relisten the first one soon though.

Both scores are magnificent. I prefer the Elfman flourish over the Batman Begins score any day. I hope they can muster something half decent though, particularly with the Batman and Joker themes.

Good stuff. Seems like the music might have been changed up a bit towards the beginning as well--can't be sure though.

Heath's delivery of that line seems a little less over-the-top than in the teaser trailer.
