The Dork Knight

Ok, I admit it. I haven't really cared, nor possessed the energy necessary to follow through should I have cared, to work on this blog recently. And, I will also concede that the few and far between posts I have made were slow-ball at best. But what better way is there to get back into the swing of things, than with a massive explosion of tits and movie trailers! I'm pretty sure thats a direct quote from Kafka.


The Dark Knight theatrical trailer dropped a little while back, and hot damn if it doesn't look delicious. Who would've thunk that Heath Ledger would knock this role out of the park like he appears to have done? Upstaging Jack?! Not an easy task to accomplish. Seeing how I tend to think that The Joker is the best supervillian in comic book history, Ledger seems to have captured everything that is quentisential to Batman's archnemesis: Insanity, Make-up, Knives, Insanity, Willingness to duel Batman on foot vs. vehicle on Gotham City's largest street. Seriously, who would've thought they'd call back to the finale of the first Batman... and then improve upon it!

Alright, my hands are starting to shake, so I'll wrap this one up. Needless to say, they should just throw Oscars at Ledger's corpse for this one. And, surprisingly, I don't mean that in any sort of disrespectful way.

Death on Set

A special effects technician on the set of The Dark Knight died yesterday during a chase sequence when his 4 x 4 crashed into a tree.

.....

And somewhere, in some other realm, Brandon Lee is reading this and wondering why it wasn't Christian Bale doing the dying. Not because he thinks its unfair that he, as the star of his particular movie, died filming The Crow and Bale did not. But instead because of all dead beings' intense hatred for Christian Bale. For its a well-know fact that Bale spends almost all of his free time defecating in fresh graves. "Let's leave 'em a rosebud to rest in peace with!"

.....

Yeah, I know. I'm reaching. But you tell me something funny that you could ascribe to a a SFX guy dying on set. Unless said death involved being eaten by a bunch of mechanical, fake heads. But you don't wanna talk about my 7th birthday party anymore than I want to remember it, do you? I thought not.

New Dark Knight Pics!

New stills from The Dark Knight today, mostly of Heath Ledger's new Joker. Alright, first off let me say that as a huge Joker fan myself, thus far I am quite pleased with what I've seen. Which brings up my next point, doesn't this movie not come out until next year? And isn't it still in production? At this rate, the entire movie will be leaked for publicity in the form of a frame-by-frame flipbook. And critics will be eternally frustrated when they have to flip the thing over halfway through to see how it ends.

Boooooooiiiiiiinnnnnngggggg!
