The Dark Knight Biggest Disappointment

[Ace of Knaves]

my only disappointment was that they showed joker from behind when he was screaming "HIT MEEE!!". the shot from the first trailer of him shouting that put shivers down my spine and looked really iconic, then they completely cut it!!! why!?!?!?!?!

I know this is minor and probably nitpicky, but I liked the way the Joker looks and how he says "Why so serious?" in the first trailer.

They used a different take in the movie along with different lighting and camera perspective. There had to be a reason they used the alternate take instead of the one from the trailer...perhaps there was something wrong with the rest of the scene which made it better to put in what they did for the actual movie.

i heard alot of what Heath done in that scene was improvised, so maybe there was multiple takes of it. maybe Heath himself wasn't happy with certain things and wanted to try them again?

Yes that could be the scene Nolan talked about that Heath wanted to keep doing over and over again and he later thanked the cast for staying overtime.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

yea it could be! i'm deffs happy with the finished article, yet again major props to Heath R.I.P

Heath was great in every role he took on. He even made The Order watchable.

are you talking about the sin eater? thats what it was called in th UK. yea that film was crap but Heath was actually very good in it.

Well...I'm glad you saw the light. t:

I really liked Hulk...but it can't really compare.

well, see the thing is i knew the hulk would be good, and batman would be better, but i also knew batman would make way more money some how. especially after ithe hulk opened, so the plan was to see the hulk 1st outa pitty, and my love for all things marvel.

i didn't like the new hulk, not.....one........bit!!

Not really a big disappointment, more like a small regret, I preferred the singsongy delivery of "I'll settle for a loved one" we got in one of the trailers than what we got in the film.

 

[scatterax]

ya, i don't get why they changed anything that was in the trailor?

 

[Ace of Knaves]

there was probly multiple takes of alot of major scenes, i also noticed the way he said "kill the batman" was different from the trailers. and they completely cut "so....where do we begin?"

Batman listening to the phone conversations on top of the building, Batman standing in the debris of the building where Rachel died, Batman gliding through skyscrapers in Hong Kong... yeah, there totally weren't any iconic shots of him in this movie.

I guess Batman waiting for the right angle to jump on Scarecrow's van doesn't qualify either.

 

[Verdammt]

I guess Batman waiting for the right angle to jump on Scarecrow's van doesn't qualify either.

Or him staring down Maroni after he jumps onto the table after running through Maroni's gauntlet of henchmen. I guess my biggest disappoinment would be that that scene wasn't longer and that we didn't get to see Bats drag Maroni out of the club.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

yea the way Maroni slowly got up from his chair, i thought for a sec he was gonna take on the goddamn Batman!!!

I was kinda disappointed that the movie's most famous line, the quote that was in every poster was a quote from joker quoting his stupid father. I mean.... i liked how after the scary story the joker himself asks Gambol "why so serious" playfully, but the line wasnt as important to the film as i thought it would be.

Must have missed that trailer Was it the very first trailer? Linkage?

He actually turns and looks at one of Gambols henchmen when he playfully says it, so I'm thinking he says it to the henchman and not Gambol.
