Horror.com interview with Ledger Alientraveller ( talk) 11:44, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
Domino's, General Mills Step Up to Bat for Knight Alientraveller ( talk) 09:15, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/09/movies/09halb.html?pagewanted=1&_r=4 There are some new pics in the slideshow on that page that can be used. It verifys somethings about double Batmans, etc. Overall, it's another great article to cite. -- Lordkelvin ( talk) 22:15, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
There is about first 6 minutes and 30 seconds leaked from the movie - I don't want to provide any links, but search on IMDB forums - and I don't know, if it should me mentioned in the article. Because, on one hand, exluding those videos, there is no reliable source that proves these are true footage of TDK - on the other hand, these videos are clearly accurate and from the movie, so it should be mentioned somehow .... I just don't know how to write it there... -- Have a nice day. Running 00:21, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
The film will be released in Australia before it is released in America. Normally movies made in America are released here first than anywhere else, the earlier release in Australia could have something to do with deceased actor Heath Ledger because, well, I think the actor was originally from Australia. Not sure though. So, though not directly, the article seems to already mention it. 206.63.78.78 ( talk) 03:12, 15 March 2008 (UTC)stardingo747
I read on a Gotham City police report from a movie web site that Joker was killed by a mob of people, but then I read that joker goes on trial and he throws acid in Harvey's face. Which is correct? and should it be added? Quinlanfan2 ( talk) 21:55, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
the pic of him dead looks like a fake because thats not even Heath Ledger in the pic. 74.231.186.104 ( talk) 18:17, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
That was part of the viral marketing campaign. At the San Diego Comic Con a bunch of people went on a Dark Knight scavenger hunt and it ended with a "fan" getting taken in a black suv by mafiosos in black suits. He was "believed to be the joker" and was "found dead" a few days later. It's all part of the plan. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.47.213.19 ( talk) 02:48, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
See need to adhere to Wikipedia:Neutral point of view in this article as in any other Wikipedia article. Needs reliable third-party published sources throughout re: marketing campaign if some can be quoted as associating it with viral marketing; otherwise that is Wikipedia's editors' point of view and misleadingly pejorative (given the Wikipedia article on the subject]]. Needs more neutral presentation. Editing summary calling neutral language "weasel words" is off the mark as well, revealing editorial POV. See WP:AGF. -- NYScholar ( talk) 17:10, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

(
help)Marketing headline to implement. — Erik ( talk • contrib) - 21:10, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
See this for discussion about the wording for the Joker's makeup. — Erik ( talk • contrib) - 03:23, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks: I see that others have previously been confused by the presentation: here is a link to "World Exclusive: The Joker Speaks", another article with a link to the magazine issue (click on cover link) from Jan. 2008 that presumably includes the article by Dan Jolin cited; could use a text to see the context so that the statements can be worded accurately. I was just working on this citation possibility when I saw this message from you. Discussion more relevant to the talk page of the article I think. Will move this there. -- NYScholar ( talk) 03:32, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
Is there any confirmation to the legitimacy of any of the pictures on the following website, [1] and if so, would it be worth mentioning if the Joker does not wear makeup throughout The Dark Knight, if indeed legitimate? 66.24.238.22 ( talk) 02:55, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
Plus, that could be a pre-joker pic, that is, before he starts wearing makeup and becomes a criminal mastermind. Maybe is part of a flashback. Franshu ( talk) 21:05, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
They are obviously legitimate, but still cant use em Franshu ( talk) 21:27, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
The Joker takes off makeup in the scene pictured to cause havoc from within a police march. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.99.199.2 ( talk) 21:52, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
That makes sense. But still that info cant be added to the article cuz it has to b kinda official, u know.
Franshu (

23:55, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
I agree. The information cannot be added until deemed official. -- DavidD4scnrt ( talk) 05:41, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
My favorite has to be the newly-bolded redlink. There's nothing quite like the most useless part of a screenful of text jumping out at you because it's red and bold and underlined. Also, I really enjoyed the stage of the dispute when "it's prose, not list" was used as a trump card. Kudos. EAE ( Holla!) 05:29, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
From the review of the pre-screening, it seems like this movie has about 4 main characters, who all live in some way, and at some point of the film, a double life. It's obviously an ensemble cast unlike Batman Begins. Chantessy 18:23, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

http://www.whysoserious.com/itsallpartoftheplan/poster.htm Is it worth adding new posters?-- Lordkelvin ( talk) 01:45, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
There was a new trailer attached to a sneak peak of Iron Man. 71.182.159.53 ( talk) —Preceding comment was added at 13:28, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
I was wondering if you guys mind if I add a small section at the end with major dates in The Dark Knight timeline? -- Huper Phuff talk 22:13, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
such as...
May 11, 2007 - http://thedarkknight.warnerbros.com, the movie's official site, opens.
July 27, 2007 - The participants at the San Diego Comic Con were given clown masks as a reward, while online players were rewarded with the first teaser trailer for The Dark Knight.
December 16, 2007 - The first theatrical trailer becomes available for downloading on http://www.atasteforthetheatrical.com.
May 4, 2008 - The second theatrical trailer becomes available online (expected from http://whysoserious.com/Happytrails/)
July 18, 2008 - United States release date for The Dark Knight
The bank of china tower is clearly shown in the opening scene of the second trailer. In the past, films like this have avoided using recognizable landmarks in order to keep up the illusion. Does this mean that gotham city is now Hong Kong? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.68.98.24 ( talk) 18:07, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
The second trailer for this film has won an award. Would there be an appropriate place to mention this? Finbar McBride ( talk) 19:01, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
It should be mentioned in the Awards and Nominations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.135.47.220 ( talk) 20:28, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
This page needs to be locked, in my opinion. this little jewel was very interesting. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Storytellershrink ( talk • contribs) 18:06, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
I began doing some cleanup of the format of citations, removing unnecessary brackets around citation template dates, etc.; further cleanup still needed. Please review WP:CITE for assistance in formatting citations. (There are editorial interpolations throughout (in angle brackets) where some guidance is given as well [by earlier editors]. Please do not place unsourced material in editorial brackets; statements in Wikipedia articles need verifiable citations to reliable third-party published sources as per Wikipedia:Reliable sources guidelines and Wikipedia core editing policies: e.g., WP:V#Sources. Thanks. -- NYScholar ( talk) 14:29, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
Something I'd suggest removing is the other filmmakers' interpretations of Ledger's take on Joker, and rewriting all the stuff on the viral marketing. Yay? Nay? Alientraveller ( talk) 11:26, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
Found this but when I tried to upload it it said "File has no extention like (.jpg)" http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.headstatic.com/whitenoise/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/2face.jpg&imgrefurl=http://headstatic.com/whitenoise/archives/108&h=735&w=649&sz=187&hl=en&start=33&tbnid=WzV9f8ZKZ2CGYM:&tbnh=141&tbnw=125&prev=/images%3Fq%3Ddark%2Bknight%2Btwo%2Bface%26start%3D20%26gbv%3D2%26ndsp%3D20%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN Quinlanfan2 ( talk) 00:48, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
Ok, well, the Joker has a Glasgow smile in this, or as some people now it, a chelsea grin. That's why he has the makeup. I included the think about the glasgow smile in his section, but i have one question. When he says "let's put a smile on that face" and he's holding that knife, is he going to give someone a glasgow smile? User:Kazaan —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.237.48.113 ( talk) 21:00, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
It says in the design section that he never takes the make-up off, meaning he has a choice in having it on. User:Kazaan —Preceding comment was added at 22:09, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Would any of the information in the June 2008 article of Total Film be relevent enough to be mentioned in this article? Some elaboration was made on the characterisation of Batman, Harvey Dent, and the Joker, although this information may be somewhat redundant. 66.24.238.22 ( talk) 02:59, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
Recently the Two Face page has been vandalised a couple of times and as this movie gets closer you know the vandalism is coming so should we go ahead and protect the page? LifeStroke420 ( talk) 14:14, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
I think this will do as far as a new thing to work on. I like this page and like the edits, but I will help too. Canb this be and I'll research on the net to add some new info. Thanks everyone. Any question you can talk on my talk page. Boggydark ( talk) 22:32, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
Phillip Seymour Hoffman will be Oswald Cobblepot in the dark knight. I know becuz you guys SAID IT IN THE Penguin (comics) article! Go read it! And edit this TDK page with Cobblepot in it under cast and characters. Thank you. -- Harvey "Two-Face" Dent ( talk) 00:15, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
I think the Joker page I mean section is needing a edit. Ill see to it but I need back up. I think this page is slipping but should be okay with eric and Bignol fixing it. They are cool. Fuck if I know what to do but they help alot. Any others? Boggydark ( talk) 00:55, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
