why so serious!???

so… let’s talk dark knight for a hot minute here. were you up on the harvey dent campaign site?

so then you probably saw the i believe in harvey dent too site.. with the e-graffitti from the joker all over it? (screengrab below)

and then as such…. because you’re the internet nerd that i know you are.. you probably uncovered the face of the joker that the site eventually revealed. or maybe you saw it on a blog. either way, if you’re like me, you’re into it. the permanent smile.. the acrid green hair. let’s hope they continue where batman begins left off, right??

so then today, that leads you to: www.whysoserious.com ah, the viral marketing is at full bore now. i’m down with this stuff.. i’m interested to see what type of INITIAL reaction they’re getting. i wonder if people really ARE discovering it on their own, or they’re reading about it on blogs. regardless… dope site. the pics are gnarly, and i hate looking at them, but damned if i’m not gonna find that already leaked trailer in there.

good one warner bros, youre listening to the young dudes in marketing arent you?

EDIT: here’s the teaser in youtube quality… which isnt so bad since it’s mainly just audio anyway.

    This has me excited, the marketing around it, everything. They were even circulating $1 bills with the joker eyes/mouth as clear decals over George Washington face. I haven’t been this hyped over a movie in a long time.

    i know people here in chicago are mad juiced about it, partly because the filming is happening in the downtown area and i nearly pissed my pants when i saw this site. no disrespect to jack nicolas, but the ichi the killer looking joker is what i’m hyped up about.

    oh yeah the trailer is more cock than a tease, but i’m still looking forward to it.
