Hot Button Review - The Long, Dark, Good Knight
—
This is not a Batman movie… this is a 2008 version of The Untouchables with The Batman as Elliot Ness, The Joker as Al Capone, much better toys, and, it seems, a topper. Great. But the topper is a bit unwieldy, in that it makes the film too long to sustain by pushing beyond the main story – DePalma and Mamet’s The Untouchables was 119 minutes – and too short to do the second push of ...

World Exclusive! The Dark Knight Soundtrack Review
soundtrackgeek.com 7/4/2008 — World Exclusive! Soundtrack Review: The Dark Knight by Hans Zimmer & James Newton Howard. Excerpt: "The Dark Knight is certainly much darker than Batman Begins. While the first one was more atmospheric and more about Batman, this one has The Joker written all over it with sad songs and full out action cues. It starts off with an amazing song that lasts over 9 minutes. Why So Serious?"
Countdown: Dark Knight Interviews
snarkerati.com 7/12/2008 — Batman ponders the tedium of press junkets. ComingSoon has three The Dark Knight interviews up–Christian Bale, Aaron Eckhardt, and Gary Oldman. Each one lasts about five minutes. They’re pretty clip heavy, so that alone makes them worthwhile. The girl doing the interviews seems too “communications course” and her questions are really scripted and a little odd (she ...
How The Dark Knight Went IMAX — /Film
I’ve said it before, and ’ll say it again - You haven’t seen The Dark Knight, unless you’ve seen it in IMAX. OVer 20 minutes of the film was shot with 70mm IMAX cameras, and the result is a cinematic experience like you’ve never seen before. But how did this all come together? “It was always Chris [Nolan]’s idea, he’s wanted to shoot on IMAX for years,” producer Emma Thomas ...

This isn’t really my cup of lemonade.

So I went to the Dark Knight viral flashmob in Chicago — Oh No They Didn't!
It's July 8th in Chicago and since I never kissed a boy in high school, I went to that Stand Up for Batman thing at 9:00 tonight. Oh it was a thrill, at least for the first ten minutes!

The Dark Knight behind the scenes — Filmstalker
There's behind the scenes footage online for The Dark Knight, and it's a massive eight minutes in all. What I like about it is it isn't all polished and clean, it is jus a series of clips from behind the scenes, and not all the usual stuff either. Here you'll see all the stars, some of the bigger stunts, and some small on set moments which really do give you the feel of filming on a ...
I guess jobs have to be made somehow...movie trailers deserve some reviewing too! — Oh No They Didn't!
Film critic Jeff Vice tackles the art of reviewing 2 minutes worth of movie footage: Appearances can be deceiving. First appearances in particular. I've already shared my misgivings about the first teasers for the Batman sequel "The Dark Knight."

First 5 Minutes Of The Dark Knight — Movie Moron
It case you missed it in front of the IMAX I Am Legend at the end of last year, here’s the opening bank robbery sequence from The Dark Knight. It’s extremely Heat-esque, and just as accomplished as anything Michael Mann’s done. It shows the Joker demonstrating (or, more promisingly, the screenwriters) an uncanny ability to execute a fiendishly clever plan. It’s ...
