Oct 31 2007Why So Serious? - The Joker Assigns Homework
For the last two weeks, The Dark Knight viral site Why So Serious? has been counting down to Halloween with the image of a pumpkin, candle burning inside, one half deteriorating at roughly the same rate as my interest.
Finally, something has happened, and a Warner Bros. intern posing as The Joker has posted clues to find in cities around the US. As part of an elaborate homework assignment, you go to the location described, take a picture of the letter there, upload it, and it joins the others on the collaged page. Presumably, something will be given to us when it's done, like more laborious tasks to complete.
Thus far, it appears the final text will say, "THE ONLY SENSIBLE WAY TO LIVE IN THIS WORLD IS WITHOUT RULES." Which makes sense, because I've always thought Joker would sound a lot like a No Fear t-shirt.
/Film has been doing a good job covering it, if you want to follow along.

You guys notice a picture behind the collage?? i think it's about to reveal the Two-Face picture. Again, just waiting on New Mexico.

The photo underneath is the best part. The Joker looks FANTASTIC in the shot, and Ledger sounds...exactly the way I wish the Joker would sound. I am so looking forward to this movie -- the hype is actually working.

I really like this new picture of Heath Ledger as the Joker, looks great! I'm really excited about this movie & hope it;s as good as the last one. I trust Nolan so I bet he does a great job.
Thanks,
Tommy
