Naked men statues started with Burton in Batman Returns, not Shumacher in Batman Forever contrary to popular belief. Two huge muscle guys pulling large levers or rods in the miniature time square scene in Batman Returns can be seen readily through out the film. Mind you, a town square not...

Then you're totally, blissfully ignorant. From the very first scene, we are put in front of the Monarch Theatre. Every scene outdoors after that rotates on a street or two. And it's very visible that it's the same location looped over and over again. Thus pretty much destroying the illusion...

So ... we're not getting the city hunter from Predator 2 from NECA?

v1 Joker is an absolute terrible likeness. Definitively. It is one of the least accurate The Dark Knight Joker products out there in terms of it's likeness.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread.

That's why I enjoy Nolan's version of the mythos and their relationship so much more. Joker doesn't become a crazy clown by accident. Joker recognizes the power of a symbol. Iconography. Which is what Batman Begins is about. Batman is the symbol Wayne wants to use in order to execute his...

Sorry about that. I wouldn't know where to start. So many times I was on the set from Batman Begins to The Dark Knight.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread. It's a rotocast figure. It's the 6 inch Movie Master figure in the full 12 inch length that they use to sculpt the figures intially. Mattel just decided to release it at TRU. At Toy Fair they showed a pic of the Joker 2-up which will be coming...

That would've had some weird implications asking a grown ass man if he could let a toy company have his likeness so I could own a mini representation of him in plastic form. Too many innuendos there, too much possible weirdness.

Re: The Dark Knight New Costume PHOTO Thread. Mattel's TRU exclusive $30 Four Horseman sculpted 2-up is easily IMO a better and more accurate product to it's on screen counterpart And probably Medicom's TDK Butchered maybe the wrong word but it isn't near as movie accurate as the rest of the...

Back on topic ... which is why I even came back to these boards

I was born here, raised here till I was 9. Moved back for college and been back ever since, so yes. So in that regard the Nolan Batman movies have an even stronger connection with me. My favorite character / mythos, filmed on epic standards in my hometown. It's just great. I can name every...

Bale was cool to me because I never approach these people like a driveling nerdy fan boy, even if I am one. Ya know? Bale spoke with me at length in the summer of 2004 when filming BEGINS. But I knew his capabilities well before his much publicized rant a few months ago. In 2004 I heard him...

From what I hear his brother is even more down to earth. Both grew up in Chicago, and from friends of mine that knew him he was a great guy as well. And both of them are extremely talented. Jonah turning out two great scripts in the Prestige and TDK, and hopefully ... Terminator Salvation.

Oh yea, forgot ... Chris Nolan. The busiest man on the set 24/7 for that whole summer of 2007 filming this project always managed to find some time for fans, and was extremely generous and endearing.
