Just a quick note to tell you all that the Offi­cial Dark Knight teaser has been made avail­able on Apple’s Quick­time movie trail­ers ser­vice, in high def and iPod formats.

Here are a cou­ple of inter­est­ing things from through-out this week. First up, Yahoo have posted the voice-over Dark Knight teaser video in high def­i­n­i­tion, here’s the link.

Here is another Gotham explo­sion video via YouTube:

Over at the SHH forums Big Engine posted up some inside pic­tures of the Card­ing­ton Hang­ers in the UK, to be used as the set­ting for a fight scene:

And some SWAT stunt footage via Lexwalk (warn­ing the descrip­tion of this video and the video itself can be con­sid­ered a bit spoi­ler­ish):

Mean­while, Mag­gie Gyl­len­haal has been doing some mod­el­ling for Agent Provocateur.

And have a good week­end folks!

The MAGIC apparel indus­try show in Las Vegas this year had a Dark Knight stand, sport­ing some juicy cloth­ing items. Kung Fu Radio were there to cover the Dark Knight booth.

Here are some of their snapped shots:

The bat-pod and TDK acces­sories on show behind:

One lucky flickr user, carscomed­i­tor, was on scene with cam­era to wit­ness the Mur­cielago accident.

Check out the flickr gallery for a cou­ple more pictures.

… and there is no bet­ter way to mark it than with a dented, busted up Lam­borgh­ini. A Mur­cielago (which trans­lates to Bat) to be precise.

Pic­tures thanks to rory_bat; he is now head­ing back to the East Coast, whilst Batman’s film­ing sched­ule takes them to Eng­land. Film­ing is set to con­tinue until November.

Super­Hero­Hype recently sat down with Mor­gan Free­man to talk Dark Knight (and Wanted):

CS/SHH!: What were your expe­ri­ences like work­ing on the Bat­man sequel?
Free­man: The sequel. Alec Guin­ness remarked one time that he made more money on those two [Star Wars] movies that he was just fea­tured in than he’d made in his whole career and had lit­tle or noth­ing to do. That’s what it’s like.

CS/SHH!: Have you fin­ished your part?
Free­man: I haven’t fin­ished. I’ve got one more day. I travel all the way to Hong Kong to do it.

Whilst at the other end of the inter­net spec­trum Aint it Cool’s Capone met Chris­t­ian Bale. It’s an inter­est­ing read with this lit­tle detail com­ing at the end of it,

Q: Are you almost done film­ing [DARK KNIGHT]? How much longer are you going to be work­ing on it?
B: No, we’re going until Novem­ber. It’s a seven-month shoot.

After the big explo­sion, lit­tle else can impress us now, how­ever film­ing con­tin­ued for at least one more day in Chicago, with Bruce Wayne’s Lam­borgh­ini being spot­ted kit­ted up and dri­ving around. Two sets of pic­tures are out there, the first comes via draperyfalls,

Sec­ondly, chgo­jobs had this pull right out in front of him:

He car­ried on to fol­low the action and cap­tured this video:

Also, CNN have a new explo­sive video.

Lots of footage and reports from the scene, I thought I would pro­vide a sec­ond post with some alter­nate angles and stun­ning photography.

Firstly, City Eyes has cap­tured some beau­ti­ful shots of the explosion:

Check out more of his pho­tog­ra­phy at either his blog or his flickr gallery. (Pre demo­li­tion pic­tures)

And here is another video from the ground:
