The Dark Knight New Joker Picture In The LA Times

I really like the lighting.

It's atmospheric, sets the mood, but doesn't overdo it.

 

is that a screenshot of the footage or is it just a regular pic, because that is tight, even though we don't see his face, it's awesome

 

does he have the make up on? or does that happen during the film?

 

Really makes me think of Heat which is a very good thing.

 

this is just such an iconic shot. i wish that were the poster, though i do like the one we got. i think this shot was when i realized that my ridiculously high expectations were going to be met and shattered by this film.

 

Reminds me a bit of one of the shots from the Sweeney Todd trailer.

 

I thought that too, its the giant bag over the shoulder I think.

 

He seems to slouch a lot, is that how it was in the prologue.

 

Epic? Try and be more descriptive. I could see a slow tracking shot from behind, creating a sort of ominous feeling. Was it like that at all?

 

????????????

 

its funny, the entire prologue had a Heat feel. i dont doubt that there were many screenings of the bank heist scene in Heat before they filmed this prologue. I can definitely see the influence nolan mentioned in interviews. i think that the dark knight will be the first "comic book" film to really escape that stigma. even begins in some circles is still denigrated as such.

 

Nice. Nice.
Nice. Nice.

I like the simplicity of it. Even though the background is pretty busy, to me its just a simple picture. I hope when more stills come in, they are similar to this.

 

I.....that.....holy....is....good God.

 

you're right on the money, its this slow tracking shot towards him, then the car screeches up. it's just...you know how there are those individual shots in films that are just absolutely mind-blowing? this is one of those.

 

I need to see that prologue right now.

 

yes he has the makeup on, you don't know it at the time but looking back at this shot knowing he has the makeup on makes it that much more creepy

 

That's EXACTLY right!

 

we dont see his face until the very end, but we are left to assume he had make up on the entire time.

 

Cool!

 

Nothing special but I like it.

 

well nolan said the other day in an interview with IGN that that whole segment was heavily inspired by Heat. So i'm not surprised that it reminded you guys of it.

 

Does the camera movie in closer to him or pull back...

EDIT: my questions have a habit of being answered before i post them. I should probably refresh the page a few times before asking.. .

 

if i remember, its a slow dolly in...but i was so busy drooling and giggling that i could be wrong.
