Is Nolans sweatervest/waistcoat made out of Scarecrows old mask?:wow:

Nice Job BTW Greg

[Cowleen]

I was hanging around Bats in Garage B most of the night. I will second the guy-in-robe thing. There was a real batman and a couple of robe guys actually. Even from our distance, there was a remarkable difference between the length and sheen of the fabrics. And Bats might be being modest, But we stayed out till they wrapped (5ish), and he slept in his car to make up for it. A round of applause everyone.

[Excel]

thank you all!

[Excel]

I still don't think we have a firm confirmation that Deepthroat's reports are bogus, do we?

nah yo, the guys been spoutin **** since febuary.

[IamtheBatman]

On BOF the goon said he said the Joker was in action last night anybody get a photo of this.

[Cowleen]

I wanted to add something maybe for discussion and confimation. We walked past the trailers last night and kept seeing title like CHECH THUG. And Im thinking, gosh. Dont they know how to spell? Then we saw another trailer that said CHECHEN GANG. As in Chechnya. Not Czech Republic. Thoughts?

Hey there! Actually I drove back home, took a 5-10 min. nap, got ready & went to work via train. I was worried I'd be dozing off heavily driving home from work if I stayed. I'm overloading on caffeine at work now.

Garage B is pretty decent if you like general activity. Like I said we couldn't see that good but it was good enough. Garage A is ideal except for worrying about security kicking you out. I think they left us alone since we're far enough away from the set to send someone over. They lazy. :woot:

[sasquatchs]

Can you give us a link? All I see is Batman #1 influence on the front page

That's what I saw so there was no action of Joker last night.

Friday, June 21, 2007, 7:13 AM CENTRAL TIME:
AICN has posted a cool -- and spoiler-free -- report of TDK's shoot in Chicago. It's a tad dated, but cool nonetheless and includes some pretty cool pics of Aaron Eckhart and Maggie Gyllenhaal...
"The Goon" was back overnight. From what he told BOF, BATMAN #1 -- which featured the first appearances of The Joker -- CLEARLY is an influence on TDK...

The latest "Bat-Poll" -- "Your take on the new Bat-Suit in THE DARK KNIGHT?" -- results are as follows (based on approx 2,100 votes): 68% thinks it "Kicks Ass," 27% are waiting until they see it on screen before deciding, and 4% thinks "It SUCKS." Make sure you go to the MAIN PAGE and vote on the new poll (re: "The Batpod")...

I've got something coming for y'all that's REALLY cool -- although I can't say much about it right now. But be looking for it a bit down the line here at BOF...

I'm sure that there will be more TDK later, so stay tuned!

[Cowleen]

Excellent theory!


As I think about it more, a gang of thug is more believeable from Chechnya than the Czech Republic. Chechnya is f'd up and its even current public knowledge.


Bats-Gotta love the train.

[jsf]

there from berleeen, ya

[theShape]

That Darket Knight report is awesome. I'm loving everything I'm hearing.

[Aiden]

Jett does that all the time :cmad:

[wikum]

can someone repost darkest knights info here, i can't find it and i want to read it again.

thanks

EDIT. I found it.

[Cowleen]

if you go back just a few pages its there.

[Bat Brain]

Jett does that all the time :cmad:

He posted something about visiting Chicago in the forums there so it's probably a set visit. Still, it's very annoying when he does that..

[wikum]

The official photographer for the movie told us that first pic of the Joker was by someone named Wally, and it was for the first makeup test. He said he took WAY more of Joker after that, and they are better photos and we should start getting some in the coming months. The dude went onto absolutely PRAISE Ledger's characterization. Even went on record to say it will blow away Nicholson's. He said it is THAT memorable. Everyone on set was giddy when talking about Ledger. Said he's being truly innovative, and down right creepy with this role. They also mentioned how terrifying he looks on the set in costume. And he will have black eyes, this was confirmed.

this is without doubt the best stuff i have read on here in ages.

[dark_b]

''and we should start getting some in the coming months.''

this is obvious :woot:

Dent's tie isn't purple in that scene like the other one, I smell a plot point :oldrazz:

Wasent there something on BOF or some site that said that the Joker's cloths are something he aquires rather than makes himself or something to that effect?

[regwec]

Dent's tie is quite purple-ish, as well. It seems half likely that The Joker absconds with them, which seems strange, but I suppose it's better than The Joker wearing no purple at all.

[Bats]

Actually those pics have poor lighting. His coat, tie & suit are really blue.

[Kleric]

Dent seems to like two-tone ties... that's all I got, I think I need some NyQuil or somthin...

[Stawrogin]

Aaron Eckhart is brilliant. I loved him in "thank you for smoking" and "thursday"(the one with Thomas Jane).

[regwec]

I don't think the lighting is poor, I think the lighting is different. Lots of patterned silk ties seem to change colour depending on which threads are refracting light back into your retina.

[Mike_D202]

^the first pic it still looks a little lavender, the second pic hes wearing a blue trench.

[Bats]

The lighting is poor in that it doesn't show the true color of the outfit that well.

I know he's wearing different clothes in those pics. They were put together to how one color can seem like the other (with the 1st pic showing how blue can look purple-y in that light).

[regwec]

Would someone be kind enough to interpret that phrase for me? It's meaning is crucial, but I can't be sure of what was meant. Me speaky small English.

[AndrewGilkison]

He means he took more pictures of him.

[regwec]

Oh, I see. It is actually quite clear. On first scan I imagined that he was refering to the progression of the makeup tests.

[Cowleen]

Dont know if this is where this should go, but for Cillian doubters...

From Bill Zwecker, Chicago Sun Times

SEEN ON SCENE: Actor Cillian Murphy was spied checking out the "MCA Exposed" exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art -- as well as picking up an airplane-shaped baby spoon and kids' book in the museum's gift shop -- presumably presents for his toddler son Malachy. ...

[Phoenixfaith]

Hi guys, I'm one of the 'ladies from DC' and myself and two friends of mine had the privilege of being there last night in Garage B with some fellow fans, all of whom were really cool and friendly and one even brought us cookies!

It was a great night, saw the explosion being discussed here as well as the Batman stand in and some gun fights from under neath the roof.

We left about 4am and the tumbler was blown up about 5am I think. We're heading back out there tonight and hopefully they will still be filming.

I really, really hope The Joker has more scenes to film this weekend, maybe Sunday night? Saturday? If anyone knows, please drop me a line here!

[Cowleen]

Hey there! Its the cookie lady ;)

As far as the tumbler being blown up, there was the crash the night previous, but nothing after you left. We stayed until wrap.

[Hobodeluxe]

One observation from last night's bats pics is that it appears to be the Begins Batsuit being worn for that shot. Look at how thick the neck is.

[babycakes]

Hi all, me and my two buddies from DC were in apparently Garage B with some very nice people last night---good to read your reports! Have nothing further to add, you've got it all covered except for what a blast! It really was quite fun and good to chat with you all, and watch the proceedings. Looking forward to more evenings doing as much.

[dark_b]

[babycakes]

Hey Cowleen, those were some fine cookies BTW! Thank you!

[regwec]

Do you all know each other? I feel like a loner at a party.

[Cowleen]

Dark B, no blow up. its ok. breathe. Breathe.

[sasquatchs]

For a moment I thought it was a euphemism. Wish I could have been there babycakes

[dark_b]

Dark B, no blow up. its ok. breathe. Breathe.but the tumbler gets destroyed in TDK :csad:

[Cowleen]

Do you all know each other? I feel like a loner at a party.


We've all recently discovered how cool it is to hang out in parking garages.

[Cowleen]

but the tumbler gets destroyed in TDK :csad:


but not yet. not as far as we know.

[Phoenixfaith]

Hey there! Its the cookie lady ;)

Hi there, thanks again for the cookies and the convo. :woot:

I hope you guys are out there again soon, maybe tonight?

[Cowleen]

Maybe tonight. being out that late made me feel hung over today.

[regwec]

We've all recently discovered how cool it is to hang out in parking garages.

Pah. We were doing that in England years ago. Bouncing a basketball aimlessly will be the next big thing.

[Mike_D202]

Somebody run around set dressed like the Adam West Batman holding the big round bomb that he cant get rid of!

[Cowleen]

Whats a b a s k e t b a l l ?

[Bats]

Maybe tonight. being out that late made me feel hung over today.

At least you got some sleep. I'm going on maybe 1/2 an hour's worth. Oye! :yay:

Regardless of where I am tonight, I'm going to take a nap when I get home.

[Cowleen]

Somebody run around set dressed like the Adam West Batman holding the big round bomb that he cant get rid of!


OMG

My husband keeps saying he wants to dress in a ****ty costume and just see how far he can get on the set, the reaction and whatnot.

[Mike_D202]

LOL do it, or have him dress up like Robin or a famous villain from the Batman comics to drive the set spies crazy (ex. "OMG I HAVE A PIC OF MR. FREEZE ON THE SET BEING FILMED!").

[Phoenixfaith]

We actually managed to get about 8 hours of sleep, sleeping in till noon certainly helped LOL

We had a blast last night, it was so cool to be a part of everything. Anyone know the exact location of where the party scene (the one The Joker crashes) was filmed on Wacker?

[sasquatchs]

Phoenix - 111 E Wacker (One Illinois Center)

So does everyone think rooftop stuff tonight? Someone mentioned them testing the batsignal last night, forget who

[CrashNburn]

he should dress up like robin and run around screaming "why wasn't I in the sequel?!!!"

[Bats]

Possibly rooftop scenes, more parking garage scenes (just under the rooftop) or even a chase scene. We're not sure exactly where or when.

I mentioned the signal testing before. They would uncover it, fool around with the front, turn it on/off & cover it back up. *shrugs*

I'm going to go to the set tonight dressed as Joel Schumacher.

So is everyone going back tonight? Great stuff

[Kud-Dukan]

I mentioned the signal testing before. They would uncover it, fool around with the front, turn it on/off & cover it back up. *shrugs*


They are probably making sure that no Batfans had stolen the Bat symbol off the signal or were messing with it. :woot:

Thanks for all the reports guys! :wow: I wish I was in Chicago right now.

[Boom]

I think filming the rooftop scene would depend on the weather conditions.

How's it looking in Chicago today?

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

Thanks for the reports lady's and gentleman,

:cool:

you are all so in my cool book.

[Cowleen]

I'm going to go to the set tonight dressed as Joel Schumacher.


So look for a giant douchebag then?

[AndrewGilkison]

but the tumbler gets destroyed in TDK :csad:

I am sure you'll get over it.

[dark_b]

I am sure you'll get over it.i respect nolan for not repeating himself and really taking the batman movies forward.

but the tumbler is badass. :cmad:
BADASS

[Cowleen]

i respect nolan for not repeating himself and really taking the batman movies forward.

but the tumbler is badass. :cmad:
BADASS

agreed. and something else we learned last night is that it really does sound like that.

[Symbiotic]

i respect nolan for not repeating himself and really taking the batman movies forward.

but the tumbler is badass. :cmad:
BADASS Yes, but look on the bright side. We get the batpod in return.

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

Yes, but look on the bright side. We get the batpod in return.



which doesn't look all that great, but i will await footage of the thing in action.:woot:

[dark_b]

Yes, but look on the bright side. We get the batpod in return.i dont like the idea of batman having a bike or the bat-pod. i hope it works in the movie.


thanks guys for all the info. now make sure that you will find heath as the joker.

do it............do it.

[Cowleen]

ya, i remeber talking aboutt hat with somepeople. If i had been as spoilerish with BB as I am with TDK, I wouldnt have been as into the Tumbler. I would have been all " Why is there an armored lamborgini there?"

[bapi]

I wanted to add something maybe for discussion and confimation. We walked past the trailers last night and kept seeing title like CHECH THUG. And Im thinking, gosh. Dont they know how to spell? Then we saw another trailer that said CHECHEN GANG. As in Chechnya. Not Czech Republic. Thoughts?

Nooooooooo!!! I want CZECH GANG!!! :joker:

[IamtheBatman]

So, does Nolan shoot everyday. What I mean does he ever take a break for a day while in Chicago. More, importantly get pics tonight.

[Cowleen]

Well, I am assuming when they arent filming, they sleep.

Wild idea yes, but Im just putting it out there.

[dark_b]

So, does Nolan shoot everyday. What I mean does he ever take a break for a day while in Chicago. More, importantly get pics tonight.
there is no second until filming. nolan is always there .so yes.....basicly he is fimling everyday.
i think this will be the longest filming for him.....so good luck mr nolan.
respect.

[Milkman95]

Hopefully we get a chase scene with the helicopter hovering close by - of course the signal would be nice too.

Thanks guys and gals, you're doing a great job down there. I might have to take the 4 hour car ride over.........

[Octoberist]

there is no second until filming. nolan is always there .so yes.....basicly he is fimling everyday.
i think this will be the longest filming for him.....so good luck mr nolan.
respect.

I know. God he's working so hard...even on the second unit scenes. Who does that?

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

I know. God he's working so hard...even on the second unit scenes. Who does that?

Christopher ****ing Nolan, that who.

:cool:

[Octoberist]

haha....yes.

[dark_b]

Christopher ****ing Nolan, that who.

:cool:he is da badass.

[Baba Ghanoush]

So, does Nolan shoot everyday. What I mean does he ever take a break for a day while in Chicago. More, importantly get pics tonight.

I don't think they shoot everyday, shooting is a minor part of filming. Its all the stuff they do beforehand that takes time. But he's definitely doing something production related everyday. That's just the nature of being the director.

[AndrewGilkison]

Nolan doesn't have second unit shooting, apparently, so I know that has to increase his workload.

[Spiral]

I am absolutely going to the set tonight, and I think I'm going to park in the garage that is right there. Does anyone happen to remember how much the parking actually costs? I envision my whole first day (only?) of being an extra in the film going towards paying the parking cost of watching them film =P

Cowleen, heading down tonight? Who else is in? =)

Thnking about it I really want to head down again. I know garage A is $13 for late nite/ possibly all day. Garage B though for 6.5 hrs was $26.

[sasquatchs]

Nolan doesn't have second unit shooting, apparently, so I know that has to increase his workload.

He doesn't do editing during shooting from what I've read, although surely he has to look at rushes at the end of the day

[IamtheBatman]

i think this will be the longest filming for him.....so good luck mr nolan.
respect.

He'll be taking a couple of months after he get's done editing everything.

[Mak]

If it's alright with Mak, can someone please post his set pictures on here? The link doesn't work for me...


It's alright with me if someone wants to post the pictures. You may be able to go to webshots.com and search for my page.

[Bond]

Can someone tell me why dogs were attacking Batman?

[regwec]

Everyone knows dogs hate bats. It's like roadrunners and cayotes.

[Bond]

That's it?

[Cowleen]

I think the dogs actually attack the fake batman/vigilante.

[Bond]

It looked like Batman to me.

[Cowleen]

maybe they do then, i will say however if batman hurts the dogs in anyway he will lose points in my book.

[Bats]

Can someone tell me why dogs were attacking Batman?

I think something was going down between the rival gangs, Batman intercedes & one of the gangs releases their dogs on him.

[Rezzo]

Can someone tell me why dogs were attacking Batman?

Cause the dogs had some of Crane´s Fear Gas and saw Batman as a giant piece of meat so they are all fighting for it :wow:

[regwec]

Can someone find the dog-stuff? I don't seem to be able to, now.

[Infinity9999x]

Cause the dogs had some of Crane´s Fear Gas and saw Batman as a giant piece of meat so they are all fighting for it :wow:

If the dogs had the fear gas wouldn't they see Batman as something like...I don't know, a giant vet ready to "fix" all of them?

[jimmy]

It's about ten pages back.

[Majick Ninja]

God I cannot WAIT to see the Penthouse scene where Joker rolls in there all of a sudden and ****s that **** up, its gonna be great. I think the part about him slapping random extras is a great touch, too. It is SO Joker.

[Conebone69]

So did anyone post that pic of that dog

[Cowleen]

Im not sureif there were ant clear shots. their were definitly 2 rottwielers and a doberman.

[Majick Ninja]

What are you guys talking about? Is there a scene involving dogs?

[Conebone69]

What are you guys talking about? Is there a scene involving dogs?
Yeah theres gonna be a scene where batman gets attacked by dogs

[sasquatchs]

Here's some of the dog stuff from the night before last, it was in another thread

And let me add my two cents as well! Tomorrow I will post video of the scene that was being filmed, and the guy rappelling.

The prisoner was a young-looking man, probably early twenties, pretty small... not tough looking at all. They had a gun to his head and then threw him to the ground. One of the 'toughs' had two vicious dogs with him, a rottweiler looking one and a Doberman, I believe. The lead tough was a guy with slicked-back black hair, thick goatee, and wearing a brown leather jacket. He screamed 'mob' to me, but I'm not sure of his ethnicity. The others with him seemed like hired muscle.

Our lead 'tough' was talking directly to the camera for a good bit of dialogue, seemingly becoming more aggitated as the scene went on. They filmed this several times, and then when they filmed it again there was gunfire, as apparently his group was being shot at. They retreated back towards their vehicles after the first shots rang out. For that particular run, the door to one of their vehicles was removed and replaced with one that simulated the effects of gunfire hitting it.

The guy rappeling I believe is a Batman rehearsal because on the last time the stuntman rehearsed it, as he rappeled in he landed on the 'lip' of the lower floor, and kicked toward the head of another stuntman who was standing there. It'll look very cool!

More news of note:


* A gentleman I talked to told me that he saw Cillian Murphy on set, where he had just filmed. He was in full costume, (suit and carrying burlap mask), and had white powder on the shoulder of his suit (fear gas effect?) This man said that the Scarecrow has a gang, and that they are confronting the gang that I saw being filmed (I believe he said they were a European gang, Czech maybe? I can't remember fully).


* Two young women I talked to have a friend who is a PA who said that tomorrow will be a more interesting night of filming.

* Batman will supposedly fight the dogs that were onset and part of the scene I saw being filmed.

* A nice couple from Alabama who were in on business told me that Christian Bale is staying on the floor beneath theirs at their hotel. I'm not bothering to say which one out of respect for his privacy.

Cowleen, I feel like I saw you, but I didn't talk to you =/ I was wearing a gray shirt, had a backpack with me and was filming most of the time ;)
Similar account to Cowleen-

I got down there at about 11:30pm I want to say and wandered into the first parking garage I saw which happened to be the one the set is located on top of, however, no security. That is, until I got a couple floors up and turn the corner and there are Tumblers staring straight at me, all 4 of them. As I reached for my camera though security came by and kicked us out.

From there we proceeded to the parking garage on Franklin which has absolutely no security in it and you can get a clear view of the set. Though, you are pretty far away and the side the Batsignal faces Wells. As we were in this garage, I noticed groups of people in the garage on Wells st, so we ran over there to get a better view. Although, none of these people were there when we snuck inside which makes me think security did a round.

On the Wells st. garage you get an amazing view at the set, one that makes you almost guilty for being so close...almost. There we were able to see batsignal, though not lit, a guy in a trench coat with a gun, the dogs we have been told about and someone who sure looked like they were wearing a Batman-esque costume. The scene they were filming was pretty much inside the garage making almost impossible to get a clear view of the action going on and as we went to lower levels of the garage security found us and kicked us out.

In the end, nothing entirely new, but enough to get me hyped!...

[Majick Ninja]

Thanks, sasquatch!

[undyingsoul]

man i wish this dang movie would come out THIS summer not next :(

[Phoenixfaith]

So is the filming tonight happening at the same location, around West Randolph Street?

[Cowleen]

Im assuming

[Phoenixfaith]

Im assuming

Well we'll be there! :word:

[chintai80]

i hope he doesn't hurt those dogs...cuz dogs are awesome.
he should be able to pacify them with his tasty bat-treats in his utility belt. :batman:

[Cowleen]

cant tell if your first line is sarcastic or not, but i agree with it. i dint think batman would physically hurt them. maybe the highpitched batcaller thing chases them off.

[HanaBi]

Good luck tonight, and thanks for all the great reports! Maybe all the SHH people should wear Nolan-vests...

[riskproductions]

Im home! Has no one mentioned the CAR blowing up around midnite? The sedan right behind the scarecrows white van, the czech thugs scattered. Oh wait, I have video? Maybe I should post that :) I am right now. Ill give a set report when its uploading

[Shoemeister]

Maybe all the SHH people should wear Nolan-vests...

That. Would be. Awesome.

[sasquatchs]

Ah Risk with the win, well played. Today's been a bit quieter with details

[Shoemeister]

Today's been a bit quieter with details

Can't be a gold mine everyday. Or maybe it's THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM!!! :wow:

[Cowleen]

Wow, we were there and heard the explosion, but didnt know where it came from!

[Mysterio]

Excellent theory!again, with the Russian ballet, that makes complete sense.

[Mysterio]

Jett does that all the time :cmad:gotta keep up the illusion that he's in the know.

[riskproductions]

Ok we walked around all day (you all saw some of the pics, like trailers. Ill post em all in a sec.

Got to the Tall garage right next to the set at about 11pm. Me and my gf first stood for about 10 minutes with the big crowd of people. Thats when the two security guards came and started SCREAMING at people to leave basically. Thats when we went up a floor and parked my jeep right on the edge. Stupid kids kept coming up sometimes (and some drinking lol threshold) luckily the went down. TIP: DONT BE ON FOOT, THEY CAN F*ING SEE YOU AND THATS WHEN THEY SEND SECURITY UP. Anyways, and they cant kick you out of a car. My tools were my digital camera and my binoculars, in which I used as my telephoto lens for my camera lol. You'll see the videos soon.

Now what happened:

I left right after Bats showed up. I knew we werent going to see much and I couldnt stay out that late. Anyways, we were there from around 11pm to 2am. At the beginning they filmed the rest of the Scarecrow/van scene with the group of about 5 euro thugs. Didnt see Scarecrow though, unless he was inside the back of the van the whole time.

Scenes the filmed (most of which I captured on vid):

*Euro thugs running towards the back of the van, pistols and submachines gun blasting

*Euro thugs stumbling as a group away from the van, maybe swatting at something, almost like they just got gassed.

*the main euro thug (brown leather coat, red shirt) behind the sedan, aiming his pistol around the top of the car and shooting (close ups)

The Biggy *The main thug standing in front of the sedan aiming pistol at back of van when BAM the sedan explodes!!!

Then firefighters rushed in, put it out. Then the bat characters started showing up. Man the stunt bats was big. His suit looked padded and he was like a foot taller than everyone else. The started putting down big blue pads when we left.

My videos are uploading. The car explosion is my favorite. I was looking through the binocs with my camera filming when it exploded. I dropped the binocs and got all the flames with my normal zoom. Sorry lol but I guess I didnt get the HUGE EXPLOSION coming up memo lol. Thats probably why they kicked out all those onlookers right next to the set, their eyebrows would have been seared lol. Im uploading onto youtube now btw

[riskproductions]

Also of note lol, the set garage is right next to an elevated train track. A train came by like every 3 minutes. There was a guy watching to let them now when the train had passed so they could start the scenes

[Bat Brain]

great report, risk :up: can't wait for the videos

[riskproductions]

Correction above, when the sedan blows up, all the euro thugs are croutched behind the van with their weapons raised

[IamtheBatman]

I wondering what will be going down tonight.

[IamtheBatman]

cant wait for the videos, thank you very much for the report "riskproductions"

And Pictures as well.

That sounds like the Bat-Vigilantes! AND it sounds like Nolan IS using the Sons of Batman idea from DKR! Sweet!

Hey Hunter. What about posting an announcment that all new info, pictures and videos get a new thread, and then in one week you merge them into their appropriate thread?


It's getting a little confusing and daunting to look in ALL the major threads for new stuff.


And to try and keep the board traffic down, merge the speculation threads(like the new freaks&mobsters thread) immediately into a major thread.

Would any of that work?

My f*ing pc just froze, and i didnt save the f*g project. Its going to be another hour folks. Very sorry but I have to edit it again. It will be worth it though. Conitnue chatting

Well it would depend on context,certainly an official pic would get it's own thread to start off with except the Bat pod b/c it already had a thread for it ,i'd say for the posters to use their judgment.....someone gets some clear pics of the Joker on set that's a new thread for sure but something like a bunch of photos of lighting rigging isn't worth a new thread

some spec threads can be merged into bigger topics yes,i do that with a lot of the minor joker threads,the one you mentioned seems a kind of fresh topic for discussion for now so i am not sure there is a specific thread it would fit into......as more topics on the overall mob war theme pop up I'll make combine them into a "Mob War discussion" thread

Hello WB! Wave everybody.

WB isn't all powerful, they can't stop people from taking photos and video from public property.

Hello WB! Wave everybody.

:hyper:

[Hunter Rider]

If it was an issue WB would ask SHH to remove them,we can't hide that kind of stuff from them so it's no big deal,we had footage of the Tumbler on here last time and they never made any demands of SHH

[Baba Ghanoush]

WB isn't all powerful, they can't stop people from taking photos and video from public property.

Exactly, I don't see how WB can go after people taking pics from public property.

Hi WB!

[smatt584]

I don't know if you have noticed, but these little set reports have already been spread throughout the net. The Scarecrow pics have already been posted on Latinoreview, SHH, and iwatchstuff.com, among a few others.

[sasquatchs]

Not that it's Nolan making the decisions on this but he seems way more affable than that report from a few months ago made out, not sure I'd want to pose for photos at 5 in the morning, so kudos.

[Socrates]

TIP: DONT BE ON FOOT, THEY CAN F*ING SEE YOU AND THATS WHEN THEY SEND SECURITY UP. Anyways, and they cant kick you out of a car.

I don't have a car. And while I don't want security to show up, I'm still going to scout the area tonight. I need to see something being filmed. :cmad:

[Batman>all]

so where is the video?

Think Sasquatchs means were he the director, not sure he'd want to pose for pics at 5 am.

[smatt584]

yeah, that's what i got from that too.

[sasquatchs]

Of course I'd pose with him! And then never wash myself again. I'm now eternally jealous of gregchick. Someone came on here a while ago saying he'd scouted their house, and he wasn't very pleasant. Blasphemy! :cmad:

[Anjow1060]

So can someone give me a quick-run down on what's been going on today. The last scoop I had was someone posed with Nolan and got them to sign their dvd and take a picture.

What has Jow missed?

*cliffnotes version appreciated*

[sasquatchs]

Checkout greg's report on p174, Bat's stuff there too

And the DarkestKnight recap mid-p173 is great. Oh, and apparently BOF has something great...but we won't hear about it for while.

SHH tolds us anyway, it's next Friday. I just can't stop posting tonight. They probably won't be able to release it for ages anyway

WHy are you worried about your pictures all over the net?

[jimmy]

Maybe because he risked the skin on his nut-sack to get them, and doesn't want people taking credit for it?

[Spiral]

Greg: glad you found your camera!

I just got back from the set, I was there from about 9:45 until 12:45am. I was there with Cowleen until we got evicted from Garage A by the overzealous, large security guard who kicked Cowleen and co. out the night before. I really don't like this guy and I really, really wish anyone with ties to Chicago PD or even some lawyers could weigh in on this.

Tonight it was "can't take pictures of people without their consent", and when we did not immediately leave his partner went behind our parked cars and started to radio in our license plate numbers, and told us that he was calling in the squad cars. Well, we were able to leave unhassled, but the threat bugged me and I'd really, really, really love some insight to the legalities of this whole thing.

That unpleasantness aside, it was overall an uneventful night for what we saw. The black screens were up limiting our view of a lot of stuff. However we did see some interesting stuff:

Cillian Murphy, sans mask, was sitting right outside of the black screen talking to Christian Bale. I have several clear pictures of Murphy and will post them tomorrow. I didn't get any FANTASTIC pictures of Bale, but he was in the Begins Batman suit, minus cape and cowl. I have several pictures of him from the back, and a few in profile, where you can see the heavy black makeup around his eyes: preparation for putting on the cowl!

Buster Reeves was also spotted and photographed, also with black around the eyes for the cowl.

Several fake Batmen in various states of costume were seen and photographed. Some were without masks, and the front of their costumes were fairly nondescript, with the chest piece resembling a kevlar vest / swat uniform vest rather than Batman's design. I do not know if they were all different Batmen, or a combination of stand-ins and stuntmen.

During a small break in filming, two or three COWLED fake Batmen came out from behind the black curtain. The cowl seemed very similar, except that the nose was much more elongated, and in at least one the eyes of the cowl looked more like raised goggles (think Dr. Octopus-ish) rather than set-in. They were definitely not Batman stunt costumes from what I could tell. Again, I have pictures of these and will post tomorrow.

At about 12:30 all of the camera positioning was shifted to the left side of the garage, away from behind the black curtains, which were dropped, revealing the white van from yesterday and the Tumbler! The Tumbler backed up into the garage, taking up position in front of a semi-smashed white car that it had seemingly driven over when it came through the fake wall earlier in the week. The white van that the Scarecrow came out of was then pulled up infront of the Tumbler, and from the angle they were at it looked like the Tumbler would race forward and smash into the side of the van.

Of course before we could see what happened the security a-hole reared his ugly head.

Anyways, tomorrow look for pictures and a video or two of Murphy, Bale, Reeves, the fake Batmen, and the Tumbler setting up position for whatever they were going to film. Maybe someone who stayed later will know what happened.

[jimmy]

Yeah im glad i found my camera too! I will def be posting them in a bit.

I agree about that security guard, he kicked us out thurs night and was very rude. what authority does he have to kick us out? I would aparked my car there but it was very expensive and i already parked down the street. what right do they have to kick us out?

Bale was there?? that's huge! i dont believe he was there on wed or thurs. i woulda tried to get his and murphys autograph (since i only got nolan's).

What exactly were they filming? did bale fight murphy or what happened?

U're so lucky to be there. I will return in late july. maybe we can meet up.

Or do they / are they filming everything one scene at a time ?

Ohhhhhh, were you the guy who posted that you lost your camera ?
But you did end up getting Nolan's autograph ?
Please correct me if im wrong, lol.
How ever did you get your cam back ???

they're supposed to go back to London, so they're probably setting up everything so once the main crew gets there they can shoot without wasting any time. I think there were a handful of city shots in Begins that were done by the second unit, or the graphics company that did the kick ass cg for Gotham/Narrows.

[gil419]

I really don't think he'd appreciate that. Besides, those garages are private property.

I'm not saying they are right, but if everybody there could keep their mouths shut while they're there then none of this would have happened...

no. it's his job to be an *******. to say whatever he has to say to get you out of there and hopefully not taking pictures of whats going on.

I really don't think he'd appreciate that. Besides, those garages are private property.

I'm not saying they are right, but if everybody there could keep their mouths shut while they're there then none of this would have happened...

amen to that. don't talk, be polite ... take LOTS of pictures.

they're supposed to go back to London, so they're probably setting up everything so once the main crew gets there they can shoot without wasting any time. I think there were a handful of city shots in Begins that were done by the second unit, or the graphics company that did the kick ass cg for Gotham/Narrows.


Cool, thanx !

What I wonder is on a night like tonight when Bale and co are shooting their scenes, are Aaron and Maggie someplace else shooting theirs ?
Or they have the night off ?

lol.
Im inquisitive =)

If you look to the left of my photo, near the man wearing white's right elbow, what appears to be a clown-type mask is visible. It has a wide grin and a button nose.

Another stuntman there early Friday morning had morpheus-style glasses on. I have no idea who he was standing in for

For those that haven't seen the set, this is the front of the garage. I camped in front of here to get Nolan's autograph.

Was walking by and a trailer had a door opened and look what I saw! I called over to my friends after taking the pic to come see, but the b*!@$# closed the door.
