Slaughter is the best Medicine July 25th, 2007

“I’m a man of my word. I guar­an­tee every­one here is going to die tonight.”

So says Hol­ly­wood Chicago’s descrip­tion of The Dark Knight teaser (via pro­jec­tion­ist Fran­cis Farmer) … which is dif­fer­ent to SuperHeroHype’s pre­vi­ous report. The cause? Hol­ly­wood Chicago claims that there will be two sep­a­rate videos, one for The Simp­sons, another for Comic-Con.

Here is their full trailer description:

It was just the new Bat­man logo for 50 sec­onds with light rays slowly destroy­ing it. There was dia­logue between Bat­man and Alfred.

The last line is: “Some peo­ple just want to watch the world burn.” When the logo gets destroyed, its last piece flies toward the cam­era, turns and has a Joker card on it.

Bruce Wayne says some­thing about “they crossed a line this time”. Alfred says: “They put all their hopes in a man they didn’t understand.”

Joker says some­thing like: “I’m a man of my word. I guar­an­tee every­one here is going to die tonight.”

This is clas­si­fied as a rumor.  Not long left now.

I was in down­town Chi­town the other night 7–26 and noticed all the streets closed near the CBOT build­ing and then keep walk­ing and saw an armoured truck with yel­low let­ter­ing say­ing Gotham Police Department,its front end was smashed up like it had been in a wreck, then I went a bit far­ther and saw this Trac­tor Trailer Truck with Hyams Amuse­ment Rides labeled on it. It had a slo­gan on the side “Laugh­ter is the best med­i­cine” BUT WAIT A MINUTE It also had a SPRAYPAINTED RED S in front of the L or Laugh­ter. Could it be that the JOKER had painted that RED S in front. YES, It all comes together that the Joker Has Been in Chi­town, Now trans­formed into Gotham City for the “Dark Knight to make another debut. Then as I rounded the cor­ner and looked back at the CBOT building,it was all illu­mi­nated with extra light­ing, It really had that Gotham City look to it. Ahh, What a cool feel­ing to know that I live in “Gotham City”.

Hey I saw that too :)
I saw the Bat­man movie yes­ter­day and rec­og­nized the Slaugh­ter truck from Chicago. Me and some friends were there last year for Warped Tour and were walk­ing the streets when we saw it. We didnt know what movie it was in, but we got a pic­ture with it just in case it was from a famous movie… what do you know! My friend and I were like “AWESOME” when we saw it in the movie !
