It is strange that feeling this out of it seems normal now. I just got home from my latest, and likely last visit to the set. Once again, I was not let down. I got to see more cool scenes, more inside info, and more fun than the ever before. Like before, my friends and I headed to the set on Wacker Dr. Things were slow at first, then kicked into a higher gear than all our other visits. It was a great note to end on.
Things were quite shakey at first. Thanks to leaked videos posted here ( I heard SHH! mentioned several times!) security was tight and there were a ton of people around to watch. It made getting pics or video very hard. Thanks Typorocks! I was even ID-ed as a scooper from here. Later on that, let's discuss what actually went down. Spoilers here people, spoilers.
When we first arrived we just missed out on some cool shots. Crew told me the Joker truck was active and smashing more cars, a car flew off into the river, and a 5 million dollar IMAX camera got wrecked. Good stuff. The scene we saw were ones that take place later than the videos we've all seen. The Joker's semi was shot to ****. The front window was full of holes, and the driver laid dead over the wheel. This is where the cool stuff happens. Joker, who's in the trailer, hops out of the crawling truck, runs along the high road median, jumps in the passenger side, throws the dead driver's corpse onto the road and drives the truck himself. They did quite a few takes, looked like fun.
This set visit was also quirkier than all the others. Just more wierd people doing weird crap. Like one ******* that got kicked out for taking pictures, only to return and meet nolan
Also Heath was riding around on a skateboard...in full make-up. I can't put into words how surreal that was 
The crew was also super-f'n-cool to us once again. They let us use their toilets and did some sparring with us....you heard me right. During lunch after the semi stuff, I was treated to some more inside info. I've said prior to this post that the circus semi is THE Joker vehicle. A crew guy let me know that it's really not. There is another vehicle Joker drives, and that is the true Jokermobile. This conflicts with other stuff crew guys told me, yet I was most friend-like with this one, so I trust him more. After this another crew guy told us the coolest place to watch the next scene, and we left soon after.
The next scene shot to my complete delight featured the Tumbler. Yes, yes, oh, **** YES!!!. This scene was the greatest I've seen so far. Just awesome, awesome, awesome. It's really too cool for me to spoil for you, I'll just say....boom...bye-bye
t: The small crowd that was around went into a frenzy. It was the coolest single moment to date from filming. This chase scene looks to eclipse all the ones ever done in history. I can't wait to see it on film! We're in for a treat. After that we returned to the area where most of the crew was. Who do see stroll in again? Joker again, his skateboard still in hand. We just shouted at him this time, we couldn't contain our geekery any longer. he just gave another nod of respect and kept walking. It was still pretty cool.
The last shot of the day was simple chase footage of the batmobile chasing Joker's semi. Didn't see much, but that car is a sight speeding in and out of traffic. Satisfied with another great day, we go home. Man, time for some reflection.
My days spent on set are the greatest in my life. I can hardly put into wrods the sense of accomplishment I feel. I'm more confident, I'm happier, I can die feeling complete. Overreacting, am I? Maybe, but I don't just have a story to tell, I have an epic. It's been fun, guys. Thanks for all the support. noir out, for the last time.
funny pics and video on the way. Stay tuned
