New THE DARK KNIGHT trailer strikes online and it is EPIC!

"This city deserves a better class of criminal. And I'm going to give it to them."

This may be the greatest trailer for a comic book movie ever. I've never seen two and a half minutes of live footage so perfectly capture the tone and essence of a graphic novel.

Not much more to say about it, other than click here for the new The Dark Knight trailer.

Thanks to Phillip Arthur for the heads-up!

EDIT 1:10 p.m. EST: I would never have believed it, but they actually put Harvey Dent after his transformation into Two-Face in this trailer. You see it at 2:03 into the thing. Here's a pic...

You can barely see some grisly scarring on the left side of his face, and looks like his suit is radically different on that side also.

  1. A bit OT. Get a look at this thing:

  2. It ain't life-sized though. And the lumens are way too dim. Otherwise though, cool gadget :-)

  3. I can't wait for The Dark Knight to come out. I've been looking forward to it ever since, they announced they were making a sequel. And the summer movie season got a great start with Iron Man. But technically for me the summer movie season got to a great start in January when Rambo came out. lol.

  4. By the way: I'm surprised you missed the Scarecrow in the trailer.

    Heh-heh...

  5. Awright man, I've torn this trailer completely apart, and I can't find Scarecrow anywhere.

    Or maybe I'm just half-blind, having been working on two videos all night. Perhaps that's it. You're not kidding, Scarecrow is in this??

  6. This movie is going to be absolutely, epically awesome! and I too must have missed Scarecrow in the trailer. I've watched it four times, and I can't see it.

  7. epically is not a word... but all well. It is now, and it's definition is as follows: adj. used to describe the awesomeness that will be The Dark Knight. LOL

  8. Scarecrow is in the van that Batman crashes onto.

  9. Hmmm... I dunno. Looks like it could be one of the Joker's masked henchmen that we've seen lots of pics of. I see where it *could* be Scarecrow too though.
