Over at SHH, a tipster sent in pics of Halloween costumes and masks from a Las Vegas showcase for The Dark Knight, including those pretty friggin’ eerie Heath Ledger/Joker masks above. Halloween 2008 just got a helluva lot scarier imagining six year old hooligans giggling down darkly lit streets in those things. Also, the tipster supposedly received a spoilerish reason for the lack of Two Face costumes. After the hop, we have the spoiler (I’d rank it a 6 out of 10) and two big photos of the get-ups…

Discuss: Did the spoiler bum you out a little? Would you go as The Joker for Halloween?

Spoiler: The tipster says someone in the know at the showcase told him…

They said he’s only in the movie for a couple minutes so no Two-Face. It seems like Two-Face will only be in the movie towards the end only to set up part 3.

If true, that’s not a huge surprise but I was personally hoping for more Face time.

  • You know, I'm not too upset about the lack of "Face time" for Two Face. I'd prefer the movie be able to focus on the plot at hand, which is The Joker. I know that Mr. Dent is a good part of the plot and all, but save the actual character for when he can be a true antagonist.

    oh thank goodness... joker + scarecrow + 2 face + that other minor guy whose name I forget at the moment is too much. Didn't you see Spiderman 3 Hunter? That movie would have been 10,000 times better if Venom was removed from it and the scene in the Church bell tower where we see Venom for the first time was the last scene of the movie setting up a 4th film based completly on Venom being the bad guy
  • Floppy
    FACE TIME!!!!!
  • Oetzi
    Personally I was hoping for this. Didn't see how they could divide up the two greatest Batman bad guys' time.
  • That's EXACTLY what they should have done with Venom. God bless Nolan.

    @ Journalists Who Write "(no pun, hee hee)"

    That is soooo tired, stop it.

    am I the only one who doubts a vegas costume shop owner as having the inside scoop on the years biggest comic book film?! Seriously? Cuz theres a bagel shop guy in SF who guarantees that harley quinn & rachel dawes will be topless in a cool secret stripper scene.
  • Quenfis
    @Floppy, you must have Harvey Dent confused with Bret Michaels. But, I promise Two Face will rock your world!!!!!
  • Jason
    I thinks its good... you don't want to many villians in one movie... look how spiderman 3 turned out... a little tease for part three is all we need
  • The Jezzus
    Ummm....Wasn't Bale a little unsure about a part 3 though?

    Also, how would you market half a mask to the public? Plus if I was sending out Halloween masks to shops I would only send stuff that relates to what people have seen, so if there was a Two Face mask why send it out knowing VERYONE will see it in a shop before a Trailer or even the movie....

    My guess is that the shop owner is right, but not because he has the inside scoop but because it's very safe to assume that Two Face will only have a few minutes.

    After all some time has to go into Dent getting elected and TRYING to do good before The Joker and his minions publically show what they really think of Dent.

    I say Dent gets hit with the old Acid out the flower gag from the Joker.

    hahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahhaa!!!!!!!!!
  • Tom
    maybe they should sell those cool white Joker shirts, you posted here a few months ago.
  • Eric
    Wow, in a way it's relieving to know they won't be following the lead of Spiderman 3. Two-face has so much potential that could have been thrown away had they opted to give him the venom treatment. If this does mean he'll be getting his own separate story in a fourth film than I'm glad.
  • The Jezzus
    I could seroiusly see Two face making an appearance halfway through the movie and being the catalyst to Batman almost giving up like they suggest in the trailer.

    But maybe Dent just isn't all he's made out to be and is just a pawn in a larger game. You can fight the establishment all day, but when the establishment is yours you can do much more.
  • HarveyTwo
    Oh common people - didn't we all know this anyway?!!!

    TDK belongs to Harvey Dent and the Joker - Baman 3 will be the adventures of Two Face...
  • Christopher Edwards
    I was planning before heath died to dress up as the joker for Halloween party or fancy dress but i wont now.

    I hope that they give somthing really good out of the couple minutes that he is going to be in it for, and it will give the same buzz as the dark knight did
  • Lloyd
    Pretty much saw that coming anyway..
  • Floppy
    @Quenfis I'm glad to no longer be giggling by myself!
  • TheKillingJoke
    i just think that they are going through all the trouble of hiding two face from the public and they probably knew the costume pictures would get on the net some how so why spoil it for everyone and put a harvey two face mask out there...and i bet a two face mask from the movie is hard to pull off anyway...they are using cgi for the face and its probably hard to translate onto rubber....the question i had was why the joker had all brown hair in the second picture towards the right...i thought that was alittle weird......
    and then in the IMAX short when the joker gets picked up on the side of the road he quickly puts his mask on....but when he takes it off in the bank he has his makeup on underneath...does that mean he was standing on the side of the road with all the makeup on?? i dont get that...i think that was put together out of sequence or something....what do u guys think about the brown hair and the IMAX thing????
  • TheKillingJoke
    the brown hair joker was top left im sorry
  • TheKillingJoke
    i would rather get the jokers clown mask from the bank robbery than get the actual joker mask....the clown mask he wears is awesome....throw some makeup on underneath so when someone says to take the mask off u can scare the shit out of them with a crazy joker grin and laugh....
  • Floppy
    Does anyone know whether or not the TDK Prologue played before the IMAX copies of I Am Legend will be screened before TDK. I have seen the bootleg and wanted to see it in the theater but I have no IMAX theaters near me.
  • Anony
    Isn't the fact that there is going to be a lack of Two-face spoilerish?
  • Quenfis
    @Anony Wasn't that kind of in the title? If you made the jump and read the spoiler...then yeah I guess that is kind of "spoilerish."
  • Heath Ledgar
    YES! ATTENTION PEOPLE. this is the real heath. don not be alarmed. they said i ws dead because i ATTEMPTED suicide. they do not want anyone to know. but take my word for it. people will die tonight. trust me, i'm a man of my word
  • Auger
    Twoface dies though.
  • Bob
    You didn't see Two Face die, they had a memorial for the idea that was Harvey Dent, you saw him fall and be unconscious. You were previously shown Batman knew what height will kill you and what won't, thats why he threw them all off.
  • Joker pencil trick XD
