There will be one major factor that will make The Dark Knight better than Batman Begins. And that one factor is Christopher Nolan's brother, Jonathan. Any script that Chris and Jon have worked on together (Memento, The Prestige) has come out as nothing short of cinematic gold. I had my issues with the script of Batman Begins, and I always said that the screenplay for the next film would need to be taken to another level in order to achieve true greatness. I suspect that, with brother Jonathan helping to pen the script, this could quite possibly end up being the best Batman film ever made. Bring it on. PS Burning buildings are a staple of action cinema. 9/11 isn't going to change the fact that exploding skyscrapers are viscerally spectacular. It's in our blood whether you like it or not.

“”Sarcastic note >
â€œPerhaps the DVD will have an extended documentary on Viral Marketingâ€”"

To be fair, I’d watch it ;)

Mike I,

Why is it in poor taste? When the fuck are people going to get over posing 9/11 with any image involving an explosion and a building?

Mike you can look anywhere and if you want to, it will remind you of 9/11. This shit is really tired now and I hate just “reading” posts about people getting even quasi-offended about a picture involving these elements. I dont see a plane going into a building and bodies flying out hitting the ground.

Ok, it wasn’t the studio’s fault that Heath Ledger died and made the posters with his face seem macabre and inappropriate. But the latest poster seems in very poor taste to me because it reminds me a little too much of 9/11. Anyone else think it’s not an image they should use to promote a movie?

I love this poster!

I think it would have been equally, if not cooler, to see a giant smiley face on the building instead of the bat symbol. Looks like Batman, put the Bat-wing through there and hasn’t run away yet.

After Blu-ray is finished, I hope the next format is Super Duper HD. I really think Peter is on to something hehe.

On a more serious note - fantastic poster. Can the marketing team do no wrong for this film??

If you’ve read the NY times article from March, you know that there will be parallels to certain world events in this film. The 9/11 comparison is not unwarranted.
