Hey folks, Harry here... the bet is, this'll be attached to the fetid Scatwoman which is soon to be released... or at the very least shown at the San Diego Comic Con this coming weekend. I'm really curious to hear what sort of music they put on all of this. We shouldn't have long to wait now! Here ya go...
Hey Harry
Brundlefly here - my last post was a review for
'Around the world in 80 days' - i copped a lot of crap
in the talk backs for reviewing an 'illegal copy' ala
'The Hulk' - well it wasn't an illegal copy i saw - i
viewed the film while doing my job....anyway, thought
i'd mention it because this is something i also saw
during the course of my day today.
I was privy to a rough cut of the 'Batman Begins'
trailer.
I usually find trailer descriptions tedious but for
this film I'll make an exception. ..
Here's a shot by shot (stylistically, the films look
is raw &bleak, in fact it looks a lot like Nolan's
'Insomnia'...funny that, being the same
cinematographer...)
Anyway -
The silvery warners Logo appears (like the Harry
potter one)
(Christian Bale's voice narrates the trailer in a
raspy, low voice)
* "They told me there was nothing out there"
A low angle shot tracking in front of a bleak
rainswept wayne manor. It appears to be a wake. A few
people mill about with black umbrellas.
*"they told me there was nothing to fear"
Shot of Alfred (caine) with an umbrella, standing in
the rain with a young Bruce next to him.
* Low angle shot looking up from the bottom of a well
- A silhouetted young boy falls through the boarded
up opening, he drops down towards the camera, debris
flying about him.
* back to close up of small boy in the rain next to
Alfred.
"but the night my parents were murdered i caught a
glimpse of something..."
*flash cut to a terrified young Bruce cowering in
terror, he is partially splattered in blood..
*"....I've looked for it ever since" - an adult Bruce
walks slowly along a rainy dock looking out over the
ocean. Fades out.
*shot of a rugged iceland mountain range.
*bruce's lonely figure climbs to the top of a snowy
mountain range and begins to walk down the other side
towards a lonely settlement.
*"I went around the world....searched in all the
shadows"
In the barren, icey tundra Bruce enters what looks
like a tibetan village, it's desolate, run down,
delapidated...
*"and there is something out there in the darkness".
In a blizzard, Bruce climbs a stone stairway to a
hilltop monastery.
*"something terrifying..."
Bruce enters the monastery
in a shot similar to Aragorn entering King Theodan's
keep at Helm's deep in The Two Towers - pushing two
massive doors open, light shafts in etc...
*"...that will not stop until it gets revenge"
A feral
looking Bruce sits in a dungeon like room, he's
dishevelled, dirty.
A shadowy figure moves towards him - we do not see
it's face - Bruce's head snaps around to see the
assailant - the music climaxes - cut to black -there
is a long pause...
*shot of Christian Bale's face , he says: "me"
There is a flash frame of the picture we've already
seen - a brooding, costumed Batman in dramatic
lighting -cuts to black - out of the blackness comes
the rust coloured, revamped bat logo - no title - it
says "summer 2005'"
so there you go Harry - personally i think it looks
fantastic - Nolan you da frickin' man.
Brundlefly out
