The Dark Knight The Composite Aaron Eckhart Interview Thread

[Riven]

remember they did film a funeral scene. just not sure for who.

[BLACKOUT]That was probably for the mayor, no?[/BLACKOUT]

 

[Crook]

[BLACKOUT]That was probably for the mayor, no?[/BLACKOUT]

No.

 

[notoriousnate87]

[BLACKOUT]That was probably for the mayor, no?[/BLACKOUT]

I believe not.

 

[Seen]

[BLACKOUT]It's for Commissioner Loeb.[/BLACKOUT]

 

[NoName86]

haha, yea; and before begins came out Watanabe was Rah's Al Ghul. I don't buy it.

Joker pushes her off the roof, and batman probably swoops in to save her or something.

 

[Gotham]

[blackout]It's for Commissioner Loeb.[/blackout]

Exactly.

[BLACKOUT]And we're sure that no other funeral scene was filmed, correct?[/BLACKOUT]

 

[Benlightenment]

Evening all! First post, I've just been watching the trailer and seen something I never did before, seems like a good place to start!

There is the point where it looks like Gordon has just pulled up outside a building or place that explodes. Then, a little bit further in the trailer, we see him fighting against some other Officers, trying to rush into the building with them holding him back.


I was thinking, this could perhaps be one of two scenes. With Gordon fighting so hard to get in there, maybe it is the scene Eckhart is talking about.

Or maybe it's an extension to the scarring scene...if it is indeed gasoline that scars Dent, and if it has been poured around a lot, wherever they are, it might hit something and explode, causing the scene we see in the trailer?

Just a few quick ideas, been lurking long enough, might as well finally say something!

 

[notoriousnate87]

[BLACKOUT]It's for Commissioner Loeb.[/BLACKOUT]

That's right, now I remember. The funeral is probably for him.

 

[Riven]

[blackout]It's for Commissioner Loeb.[/blackout]

Right, that's what I was thinking of.

Spoiler

The funereal is for Loeb and Joker attempts an assasination on the Mayor there.

FYI, more details are bound to be unveiled in the coming months if you frequent this board. Spoilers are kinda like landmines. As much as you try to avoid them, in your attempts to gather just enough info to satisfy your curiousity, eventually one big one gets you when you least expect it!

Yeah I know, and that's why after today I've pretty much decided to avoid the threads with new news/discussion. I'll stick to seeing what cool merchandise is out and about.

 

[Gotham]

[BLACKOUT]After watching the new trailer, the "any psychotic ex-boyfriends I should know?" line fits perfectly.[/BLACKOUT]

 

[metropolitanpsy]

guys this makes perfect sense now

remember when the joker said 'tonight ur gonna break ur one rule' or something to that effect

racheal is killed and batman is tempted to kill the joker!
jackpot

[BLACKOUT]After watching the new trailer, the "any psychotic ex-boyfriends I should know?" line fits perfectly.[/BLACKOUT]

that is quite possibly my favorite line in the trailer.

anyway,

Spoiler

being new to this batman thing (but not that new), is dawes even worth a funeral?

and, in the trailer, it looks as if the joker is pushing her off a building. unless batman swoops up and saves her

but in a general, non-spoiler sense, that article made me a lot more excited. i didn't expect much out of two-face. i expected like, the last 3 minutes to be two-face, but

Spoiler

(i lied about the no-spoiler) it seems as if we will see more of him than expected.

 

[MissHush]

It's actually pretty stupid they spoiled that already... I mean, I kinda guessed [BLACKOUT]Rachel was going to be Harvey's love interest and DIE[/BLACKOUT], but still, you don't expect a lead actor to give away an important plot point like that.

Oh well.

you have a good point. i mean, yes, it's slightly obvious in the trailers that harvey and rachel are together, but she may fall back for batman and harvey gets some bimbo blonde (bruce's date at the event). it's not that likely, but it could happen.

and as for the times, they shouldn't reveal something like that in an article. i mean, i'm in journalism classes and thats kind of a no-no. advertisers would have there asses on that because now they lost some peoples interest in seeing the movie, therefore a loss of revenue.

 

[MissHush]

oh, and as a random factoid...i did NOT realize eckhart was 40. he looks damn good for his age

 

[ActuallyRobin]

This small text is hurting my eyes

 

[ospumas1]

I didn't see this posted, so here ya'll go....

EDIT: You all want a warning, here's your warning.......RACHEL DIES!!!

Aaron Eckhart talks about Two-Face

Hey idiot, that isn't a warning. I realize I am in the spoiler thread but you still could have just noted that there's a big spoiler in the interview and just post the link and not mention it in the thread post. Just cause your mad you spoiled it for yourself doesn't mean we all have to suffer.

 

[officechair]

Isn't it possible that Dent has a fiancee throughout the movie that isn't Rachel? You know, like Rachel is a little something on the side?
Seriously though, their relationship may be flirtatious but platonic... you know, like Tony Stark and his assistant!

 

[metropolitanpsy]

bale is looking old, he's only 34

needs surgery

 

[ArmsHeldOut]

Aaron Eckhart,

Thank you for Smoki.. err.... Spoiling.

 

[Mr. Socko]

I don't feel like searching through 7 pages


...how does she die?

Spoiler

pushed off a building by The Joker, it would seem

Spoiler

Possibly, I wouldn't be surprised if that's not it though. Seems a bit... messy.

 

[Mr. Superhero]

...how does she die?

It's not even confirmed. At all.

Eckhart said Harvey's fiancée dies in the film or something, and since there's a shot in the new trailer of Rachel being thrown off some sort of building top from the great Clown Prince, everyone assumes that, yes, Rachel dies in the movie.

Can't see it, myself; let alone Rachel being Harvey's soon-to-be goddamn wife.
