The Dark Knight *SPOILERS INSIDE* Tons of pictures, spoilers, and videos.

[Two-Sided-Deal]

First, I talked to this guy last night while I was hanging around the perimeter of the out reasons.*SPOILERS* that the Joker shoots the Tumbler with some sort of missile or rocket which causes the Tumbler to hit a car, flip or jettison into the air, and explode. And, the Batpod is indeed a leftover or a built-in component of the Tumbler which survives the explosion.

He might not know what he is talking about, but, based on our conversation, I think he does. And, if you look at his credits, he actually works on movies; he's not one of the security kids I've tried to talk to who doesn't know anything except how to use a walkie-talkie.

Next, I've been hanging out after hours in my office on a few occasions to catch a glimpse of the filming. And last night, I hung around on the street. These are the pictures and videos I've managed to capture the last two weeks. I don't send these to BOF or Hollywood Chicago, I just post them here. I hope you guys enjoy.

This is a plain picture of the SWAT van Gordon was in, kind of *****ty: http://s192.photobucket.com/albums/z237/Sunyatavadin/?action=view&current=IMG_1610.jpg

Here are a couple of GPD vehicles: http://s192.photobucket.com/albums/z237/Sunyatavadin/?action=view&current=IMG_1595.jpg

Here is a "GCN" van, which I assume means "Gotham City News."

Here are some pictures of a GPD helicopter as it was flying low over the rooftops and shining its searchlight. Whoever was piloting this thing was amazing. He would hover five feet above a roof, between multiple buildings of staggered height. I hope he got hazard pay.

Here are some pictures of the Joker's semi. I took these before they had closed the streets. DON'T LOOK IF YOU ARE TRYING TO AVOID SPOILERS!!! Seriously.

Now, the videos. On a lot of these, *Edited out*.. That's how I was able to get so close. Also, she and most of her staff are Bosnian, so that's the crazy talk you hear in the background. I had to try to explain to them what was going on. Most of them had never even heard of Batman, much less "The Dark Knight." It was kind of a weird night.

On all these, you can see what is going on much better if you click "full size" on the bottom right corner of the display and shrink the full size window until the picture becomes less blurry.

Here is a video of the helicopter:

Here are some videos of the SWAT van speeding down LaSalle, and in the last one it is being followed by the Joker's semi.

http://s192.photobucket.com/albums/z237/Sunyatavadin/?action=view&current=MVI_1588.flv

Here are three videos I took last night of a scene in which the SWAT van comes down LaSalle (it was being pulled, that's how I knew someone important was inside; they do the same thing with the Batpod, the stuntman actually rides it around like a motorcycle, but Bale gets pulled behind a truck, haha). It stops and Gordon jumps out with a shotgun in hand. In one of the videos, he wears a ski mask. In the other two, he does not. Also, you can see one of the wanker walkie-talkie kids trying to block our angle so we couldn't record. Chris Nolan was in the truck pulling the SWAT van, but you can't really see him because he's amongst so many other people.

http://s192.photobucket.com/albums/z237/Sunyatavadin/?action=view&current=MVI_1611.flv

In this one, you can see Gordon stumble as he jumps out. Kind of funny.

You can see all the images I have capture here:

Also:

There's one video being uploaded that tells what happens to the JOKER at the end of the film. I just recorded a scene they are filming involving Harvey Dent.

*SPOILERS* DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE TRYING TO AVOID SPOILERS!!!

In the scene, the Joker's semi has already been flipped. As Dent is walking in the clip, it is behind him, but I didn't get it in the shot. It is in the same spot as it was in the images in my OP, so you can look there.

It is very difficult to see, but the cops are putting some of Joker's goons into the paddy wagon as Dent (in the gray suit) is walking toward the top of the screen toward the large groups of reporters. As he gets there, you can hear one reporter say *LAST CHANCE TO AVOID SPOILERS* "Mr. Dent, Mr. Dent, was it your plan or the Batman's that led to the arrest of the Joker." You can't make it out completely in the video, but they are shooting the scene over and over, and I finally filled in all the words. I kept waiting for someone to pop out and throw acid on dent (I was hoping), but no dice.

The videos (which are basically identical, two different run throughs) are uploading now, so I will update this post once they are finished. Oh yeah, to get this stuff, I was sitting on a window ledge on the 15th floor of my building. I am scared *beep* of heights, but this is Batman, so what can I do. I'm employing the freakin' deathgrip on the inside protrusion of the window.

Enjoy, folks! Go onto to IMDB to thank AutomatorPrime!

What a scoop!

 

[Two-Sided-Deal]

Right place.

Right time.

Last time I checked this was a spoiler site.

 

[strikezone89]

nice

 

[Two-Sided-Deal]

Last time I checked this was a spoiler site.

Excellent.

Hopefully everyone knew there would be spoilers in this link. Tons and tons of information and even Bale on the set!

Kind've sad that I know what happens.

 

[Stringer]

Thats probably not the end of the movie though, there me be a another 20 minutes left after that scene

 

[Two-Sided-Deal]

Probably not.

I think we can all agree that this is one helluva a scoop.

The post (MAIN) will be updated in a few with more.

 

[thedarks0ldier]

nice work.

 

[General Vulcun]

Great post!

 

[Mito88]

nice work and thank you!!

 

[Two-Sided-Deal]

You're welcome.

The credit isn't for me - It's for Automator Prime!

 

[Mister J]

Good scoop!

When I first saw an IMDb link, I rolled my eyes, but that was some good stuff. As far as it being too revealing, this thread is clearly marked 'spoilers', so no one has reason to complain after the fact. Thanks for all that.

 

[Booznian]

My sound isn't working on my computer, I'm Bosnian too, and I wanted to try and make out what they were saying in the backround!

 

[Two-Sided-Deal]

You're most definetely welcome. AutomatorPrime risked his neck to get y'all these video's and what-not. Thank him and not me - sole credite should be given.


What's being said in the back-round of the Dent vid:

Officer: Back off! HOLD!

Reporter: Mr Dent, Mr Dent, who's plan was it *Silence* to get the -Ker.

That's all you can hear.

 

[Spade]

I doubt there will be an openly filmed sequence of Dent being scarred. If the rumors are anything to go by, the Joker isn't imprisoned for as long as the sequence you filmed alludes to it being. Not to say I'm second-guessing the scene, just that it leaves the perfect setup for facial rearrangement Joker style on a closed set.

 

[Mr. Socko]

Thanks, great scoop.

I saw the pics and read the first part. Didn't watch the vids or read the part about Dent, trying to avoid heavy spoilers. Thanks again.

 

[ChicageauxTiger]

Now with this much juiciness it's TOTALLY worth it's own thread!

Holy Turd Muffins ... WHATTA GREAT POST!

Probably right.

 

[BrollySupersj]

That is some good viewing.

That is some good viewing.

Ain't it? t:

 

[Dvhyzs]

Good Job man.

 

[Excel]

attaway man! great work!

 

[bcgvh]

So apparently the final showdown between Batman and Joker comes immediately after the semi-flip, correct?
