The Dark Knight Gets Release Date
Posted by John Campeaon 17. 11. 2006in News Chat
Well, all of us Batman Begins fans have a date that we can now circle on our calendars. Warner Bros. has announced it’s planned release date for the follow up film “The Dark Knight”. The date… July 18 2008. A long year and a half away. Oh well.. the time will fly, and I’m sure the casting rumours will keep the buzz going for at least the next couple of months as they’ve yet to officially announce who Two Face/Harvey Dent will be or if Katie “Stiff Wood” Holmes will actually appear in the film (if it’s for anything more than a grusome death scene then I’m annoyed).
And look, I know I’ve harped on this a couple of times, but it’s worth repeating. For those of you who enjoyed Batman Begins, you really MUST get out to your local video store and pick up copies of Memento and Insomnia. Two flicks that Nolan did before he did Batman. And seriously, as much as I love Batman Begins, I actully think those two are ever better over all films (just my opinion).

So where is the announcement trailer????? eh? (LOL)
;-)
Agreed. Memento is an outstanding piece of work. I’m sure The Dark Knight will be no different. I’m just excited to see Heath as the Joker!
So that is August 15th for my country then
Yeah, but “The Prestige” definitely turned it down a notch. Not so good.

“Stiff Wood”? I thought you could not stand her ;)
ME LOVE BATMAN NEWS!!!!
Im very interested to see how Ledger portrays the clown prince of crime. Should be a refreshing take on the character.
I saw Momento, great flick. I also so the Prestige, kinda disapointing flick.
Insomnia is with Al Pacino. The one Nolan is in is The Machinist. I think you mixed those up.
Hey Nicolas
Nolan is the DIRECTOR. You’re thinking of Christian Bale the actor. Chris Nolan directed Insomnia, Memento, and Batman Begins (and The Prestige)
Hope that clears things up.

What, no love for Nolan’s “Following”?
The Prestige rocked! I enjoyed it a heck of a lot better than Batman (a film which I really liked, but as I’ve said in the past, I’m superheroed out at this point, even though Batman Begins and X2 are probably the best of the lot of them).
I am interested in how they will tackle The Joker. Nolan, how he will capture the character. Ledger, how he will portray the character. I’m thinking that Nolan’s Joker will be much more dark and sinister, and less bat-shit crazy. Which I probably won’t like, but we will see.
Dent should go to Phillippe, as I can see him doing the role justice.
And for Whedon’s sake, please no Katie Holmes-Cruise or what-ever-the-fuck she’ll be called after she marries that retard.

Sweeettt going to be in my 22th BirthDay!!! jajjaja :D
See Momento and Insomnia? After the way the last few Batman films turned out, Momento and Insomnia were the only reasons I was looking forward to Batman Begins.
And I think The Prestige warrants a second viewing.
Nolan’s someone you can trust to make a film. It may not be to your liking, but it won’t be formulated garbage.
Momento is over rated.
I had insomnia for YEARS….all it took was a cup of warm milk with honey each night to do the trick! WBR LeoP
