At the Well­gin­ton Armaged­don Pop Cul­ture Con, Richard Tay­lor spoke about his enthu­si­asm for the Evan­ge­lion live action movie with a fan:

Thanks Tino!

A fairly large and detailed image has begun cir­cu­la­tion around the inter­net, claim­ing to be Two Face, as we shall see him in The Dark Knight. This image has the poten­tial to be spoi­lerific and it is also quite graphic, hence it is included after the break…

EDIT: Image removed — looks like WB are doing the rounds and tak­ing down the images as and when they find them — must be legit­i­mate then!

You can still find it here: AICN | The Blem­ish | Amber Street | Kens­ing­ton Victoria

Analy­sis: The detail on this is astound­ing — enough to sug­gest that it is not a fake. It also looks like some sort of noise pho­to­shop fil­ter has been applied over the top — much like the leaked joker pic­tures we saw last month.

The pic­ture orig­i­nated from Comic Book Resource.

The offi­cial Dark Knight web­site has updated to include a sexy new flash intro­duc­tion and all three trail­ers. The intro sees Bat­man stand­ing against a win­dow pane, à la the poster, which then bursts (like the long hor­i­zon­tal poster), before falling to the ground amongst rain­ing Joker cards.

Thanks Zdravko (Batfan93)

Here are an incred­i­bly fine selec­tion of high-resolution, in-focus images from the most recent Dark Knight trailer. They fea­ture close ups of The Joker, Bat­man, Bruce Wayne, Har­vey Dent and Rachel Dawes and most impor­tantly — that quick glimpse of Two-Face! They are all at the res­o­lu­tion of 1920x817 pix­els — per­fect for a widescreen wall­pa­per. The Two Face image is the very last one (and a smaller ver­sion is included after the break — hid­den to save on spoilers!)

You may also be inter­ested in our first round of images, from the pre­vi­ous trailer.

Be off with you, it’s time to head over to Happy Trails and down­load that 200mb best qual­ity ver­sion of the trailer!

The LA Times recently sat down with Mr Eck­hart (aka Har­vey Dent) to dis­cuss his role as a vil­lain in The Dark Knight. Beware, spoil­ers lurk below.

“I can tell you that, basi­cally, when you look at Two-Face, you should get sick to your stom­ach. Being the guy under all that, well, that was a lot of fun for me. It’s like you would feel if you met some­one whose face had pretty much been ripped off or burned off with acid. I can’t talk about it beyond that because I don’t want to give away too much of the plans by Chris.”

[…]

“The dif­fer­ence between Bat­man and Two-Face is how far they are will­ing to go and how they make their point,” Eck­hart said. “Oth­er­wise, we’re talk­ing about vig­i­lante crime-fighting. That’s what Bat­man is all about. He has a strong sense of jus­tice. And Har­vey Dent has an extremely strong sense of jus­tice. His fiancée is killed. He’s hor­ri­bly injured. But he is still true to him­self. He’s a crime fighter, he’s not killing good peo­ple. He’s not a bad guy, not purely.”

[…]

“You look at a good guy too long and it’s not that excit­ing, it’s the Boy Scout always doing the right thing. I’m inter­ested in good guys gone wrong. They’re not the bad guy, they’re the good guy doing bad things.”

[…]

“Really, all of it is more than an adven­ture tale, it’s some­what of a mir­ror of our times. It deals with some fun­da­men­tal ques­tions of what’s going on in soci­ety. To me, this film is about how Bat­man feels about jus­tice, how he takes care of the city, how he feels about the Joker when he meets him and sees what he is capa­ble of doing. How he feels when Har­vey Two-Face takes mat­ters into his own hands. It’s not sim­ple, and it gets ugly. I think peo­ple will be surprised.”

Moviehole are report­ing that Teresa Palmer, for­merly part of the trou­bled Jus­tice League movie. No infor­ma­tion as to what her role shall entail, we’ll have to wait and see.

With all the traits of the Ha Ha Times, the film reel, handed out to the one lucky raf­fle ticket holder at each of the “It’s all part of the plan” events, con­tains not the nor­mal ver­sion but a “jok­er­ized” one:

From YouTube:

The film was a 35mm workprint in anamor­phic and was pro­jected off of an old 35 pro­jec­tor which can han­dle anamor­phic lenses. How­ever the dis­tance between the lens and the screen is not intended for such a wide for­mat caus­ing the image to not fit per­fectly on the screen, but this was the quick­est solu­tion to get this video to every­one else FOR NOW. Hope­fully within the next day or so we should be pro­ject­ing again in a bet­ter set­ting and will have an ideal source to record from (includ­ing good stereo audio). So for now, enjoy.
