The Dark Knight The Dark Knight "Detectives": To whom are interested in finding more sites...

[The Redux 714]

True, but we DO know that the site(s) are real (IBIHD/IBIHDT), so there is something actively going on, and there's more to come, or we've done everything for now. Either case, we need to stay on our toes...

I don't understand why RFK was mentioned during the production of BB, but never came up again. Maybe they were planning on using it as the production title for BB, but never did, and now are for TDK.

By the way, I believe Rory is the name of Nolan's son.

wasnt there a WB tv show about a mom and a daughter whos name was rory?

Since the “other website ideas” thread has been closed, I’ll repeat myself here:

I think we are being set up for an Alternate Reality Game like the A.I tie-in from 2001.

In case you aren’t familiar with it, the theatrical trailer for the movie A.I. (a movie I am quite fond of, by the way…) had a credit for a “sentient machine therapist”. As there are no sentient machines that would require therapy (as of yet) curious observers decided to investigate. A Google search of her name opened up the beginning of a chain of interlinked websites ostensibly originating in the future in which the movie takes place. An online community called Cloudmakers banded together to solve the murder of someone called Evan Chan. The mystery unfolded through puzzles that one person would be incredibly unlikely to solve. An online collective, however…

The Cloudmakers received E-mail from characters in the game, spoke with characters on the phone, and participated in real-time, in-person meetings arranged by the puppetmasters. There are likely a few Cloudmakers among us who may be willing to share their experience. I was hardly computer savvy at the time, and regretfully, did not participate.

You can read about the game here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternate_reality_game#The_Beast

Are “ibelieveinharveydent.com” and “ibelieveinharveydenttoo.com” entry points into a game of this nature? Many of you have already responded to [email protected] and received the following message:

“People always ask me about my charming boyish smile. Jessica used to love it. She was the loneliest girl in high school, and my first big kiss...”

A message from the Joker, apparently. We’ve already been (ostensibly) interacting with one of the characters form The Dark Knight. With the release of the film a year away, it seems like this is only the beginning. Are there things we should be seeing that we’re not seeing? Have clues already been left that we should be acting on?

The Administrators left a plot summary in the source code of the teaser page, they must have left it there for us to find. What are we supposed to find now?

Tragic past? Jessica? First kiss? Shouldn’t it be “Rory’s first kiss”, and not the Joker’s first kiss? Is “Rory” a code name for the Joker? I sent a message to Rory@ ibelieveinharveydenttoo.com but it was undeliverable.

What I’m getting at, is that we will very likely have to look for those other websites.

If a game is afoot, all we know so far is that Harvey Dent is running for District attorney and a mysterious man is leaving a calling card (a Joker) in comic book stores with the words “I believe in Harvey Dent too” stamped on the card’s face. Presumably this is the same man who has set up a website depicting Harvey Dent’s campaign poster defaced with grotesque red lips and dark around his eyes. The website asks for an E-mail address, and then gives a five minute time limit to “play”. Each player receives a set of coordinates and upon entering them replaces a pixel of the defaced Harvey Dent picture with a pixel of another image: a shadowy portrait of a man with a scarred face, (gashes starting at the corners of his mouth, a “Chelsea smile”) and red face paint (or perhaps lipstick) smeared across his mouth. We’ll call this man “The Joker”.

We have two websites, an E-mail address, and several playing cards left in a public place. What is the next logical step? Do we wait, or do we pursue whatever the Joker has left for us?

This IS just the beginning and I freakin LOVE IT! The Joker will tease us with these games all the way up until the film opens in July. This may go down as the most brilliant marketing campaign ever! Especially for a comic genre film! I can't wait to see what happens at Comic Con!

Should we be hunting for something now or should we be waiting until December?

dont know, maybe this could turn into something?

I think we just have to wait for seeyouindecember.com to go live. Obviously it'll be before December, since theres no point in a website telling you they'll see you in December if it's already December.

my guess is See You In December will be a countdown of some sort, and when December gets here at the end of it, it'll link to some other site

We knew about IBIHDT because of some random cards and the guy who found the link to IBIHDT found it @ IMDb so should check back there.

Where's the proof that the myspace's are fake? It's all well and good that some of you say somebody said they had made it, but I would like to see the post of that.
