I tried searching and didn't find anything on this subject...if this has already been discussed, let me know and I'll close it.

I was watching 'The Dark Knight' the other night and it hit me...The Gotham Times had a small ad for 'The Iceberg Lounge' in one of its issues. In the movie, there is a club scene where Batman goes to confront Maroni.

Is it possible that this club is, in fact, The Iceberg Lounge? (It seems to me that 'Iceberg Lounge' is a subtle reference to the Penguin.)

What are your thoughts?
 
Wow...

Good eye, I guess. ._.
 
yes, that is the iceberg lounge, it had been discussed during production.

i don't know if there was ever an iceberg lounge in the comics, but it does seem to be right up penguin's alley
 
Wow, that's cool. I never knew about this.

I'd love to see The Penguin in a future Bat flick.
 
Yeah...I'm a little slow. I was looking at The Gotham Times again...then The Dark Knight came on.


Nah, you aren't slow. Sorry for sounding sarcastic, I don't pick up subtle references in movies like I did back in my hay day.

I honestly just didn't have anything to add to the discussion you brought forth but wanted to post anyway :/
 
I don't recall any specific confirmation, but the possibility of this was kicked around a few times in the Q&A thread, with references made to the viral inclusion.

Strangely enough, I missed the polar bears and tuxedo-sporting jazz band. :(

I would've thought Mr. Freeze before the Penguin, but I guess either would work.

Whether it really the Iceberg Lounge or not I still pretend it is whenever I watch TDK. It makes that scene so much better thinking that it is.

Digging deep bro, really deep....it's just a club but a nice theory.
