Why So Serious?


Its almost here! If you only knew how much of a Batman freak I was when I was a kid. I had every costume, every toy that come out. My wall was full of Bat art. Ask my brother. But yeah it's almost here! Midnight showing, yes. I know it's gonna be good movie, I just know it in my heart. The new Joker is in its original character. Dark, just like he was intended to be...but I still gotta give it up to Jack who did a good job in the 89 movie, he played the mob gangster Joker, this is the insane Joker.

If you don't know then here you go...


The Dark Knight movie will continue were Batman Begins left off. The prisoners of Arkham Asylum are being rounded up from the League of Shadows plan to ruin the empire of Gotham from the last movie. Its election time and Harvey Dent (who will later become two-face) is running for Gotham D.A.

Ok this is how serious this movie is...there is actually a campaign to elect Harvey Dent for DA. Here is the web site: http://ibelieveinharveydent.com/ And yes they have done a real live tour, they were on 94.5 The Buzz 2 months ago. Crazy huh all this to promote a movie.


Any ways, one of Harvey's goals in to get rid of the Bat. What Gotham needs is a leader, not a freak behind the mask rant. But he hires this guy to play this fake Batman and to swing around the sky line. Harvey revels him self as the Batman to get people on his side to the polls, but the real Bat man shows up.

Now the streets of Gotham have been clean up, but a man with a colorful face shows up. He gets the crime lord together for a meeting and tells him how disgusted he is with be mob, they have let the law one. He offers his help by getting rid of the Bat.

The Joker kidnaps Rachel, a high profile lawyer, Bruce's old fame and Harvey's new flame. The Joker trick the public that he has killed Rachel which drives Harvey mad. Throughout the move Harvey gets more and more frustrated because the Jokers antics, and we start to see a dark side of Harvey.

Harvey goes insane thinking that Rachel is dead, and blames it on the bat. His new dark persona takes over Harvey.

As of now I have no idea how Harvey's face gets damage that turns him in to Two-Face. But it won't be till the very end, where we see Harvey walk in to a bar to meet with some friends. The camera pans on his disfigured face and the screen goes black....setting up for Batman 3!



Opens July 18
