I heard it was incredible (and the newspaper pics were exhilarating). Unfortunately, me and my posse got the time wrong and missed it.

Well, I came back from the Labor Day Holiday yesterday and all of the trailers were gone from the corner of Washington and Franklin, so it looks like filming in the Windy City has wrapped up.
BTW, I saw "I Am Legend" on IMAX to see the first six minutes. They did little to nothing to hide the fact that the city is Chicago and not Gotham. The city in the trailer looks more Gotham-esque though. Hey, no complaints here.
And Joker is AWESOME. As is William Fichtner...

Chills....literally chills while watching that....
...Joker's voice could be a little more high pitched though. I guess I'm just used to hearing Mark Hamill's voice coming out of his mouth.

You know, despite all the posturing and interviews to the contrary, he seems to be playing the role pretty much exactly like Nicholson did. He's just not as good at applying makeup.
Yeah, you are right. It wasn't different enough it seemed. Hopefully in the actual movie we'll see some more demented, twisted violence than we did with Nicholson.

Oh, I'm sure he'll be more violent. The mannerisms though are definitely more Burton Batman than Timm Batman.
Watching the trailer for the 20th time, I have a question: WHAT HAPPENED TO THE TRAIN SYSTEM!? One line breaks and they shut down the whole transportation? Okay, so a madman almost destroyed the city using them, but I'm sure countless people depended on those trains daily.

Yeah, I noticed that. Joker and Batman have a faceoff on the road leading up to the Wayne Building, and there were no signs of an eL at all. Gotta wonder about that....

So far the Gotham shots look like the financial and uptown districts, which means Chicago exteriors... But what about the London sets? Will we not see the Narrows again? Will Arkham Asylum suddenly jump locations?

Here's my question. Where's fucking Two-Face? I know they showed the scratched out coin in one trailer, and wasn't there some teaser site that said "I believe in Harvey Dent?"
There are a lot of what if's in life Donny. What if I hit you really hard in the face, knocked yo shit to the back of yo skull? What if I....had you girl gargle my nuts? The fact remains, you are a fuckin mutant.

Two-Face probably won't be in the movie, but Harvey Dent is. They're saving Two-Face for the next movie.
The reason you didn't see Harvey in the trailer is because they're focusing on the Joker for the ad compaign in order to draw in the general public.

Ummmmm....
That's all I'll say.
Harvey Dent was in the new trailer for only one shot. The Comic Con trailer though seemed to be partially centered on him from what I heard.

If you're saying that cuz you think that's a spoiler, I'm just going on what Nolan has said in countless interviews. I purposefully avoid the real spoilerish stuff.
