Gross! You got something on your face, Harvey...
SPOILER ALERT !!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Now this is gross. Awesomely gross.
I can't wait for this. If you saw the bit in the last trailer, with Dent in profile... and you can see a tiny bit of the scarring... it seems to match the below, which was scooped by comicbookresources.com.
I think it's real and if it is, holy shit what an awesome look... Nolan is the man.
Pic Removed At Studio's Request!

in a good way.
-
Nice touch
-
I don't know. That's pretty extreme. It's cool and all, but it's a little over the top. And impractical? Wouldn't that get infected pretty quick? Dent's gonna have to spend the whole movie with a tube of Neosporin. Yeesh.
-
he looks great.
-
Then TDK just took it to a whole... 'nothah.... level.....
-
Do we just have to wait and see if the studio denies it? This pic is pretty damned awesome. Ain't It Cool indeed!
-
That's more extreme than I was expecting. But I suppose that's a good thing. Still, gross.
-
I call shenanigans. The biggest giveaway to me that it's fake is the 'noise' covering the background, one of the oldest Photoshop tricks in the book...
We'll see though. I'd be REALLY surprised if we glimpse Two-Face at all before the film comes out. -
Wow thatll scare the shit outta the younglins
-
Wow thatll scare the shit outta the younglins
-
Oh my God, that was the most fantastic bout of nausea I've EVER had!
-
...what a near miss that was!I don't know--this looks a bit fakey/Photoshoppy to me--I wonder if it's a mockup or trial run.It would be pretty hideous, but would fit with the increasingly stark atmosphere that Nolan's building. It would actually make the Joker look mild in comparison!Something about that mouth area reminds me of Jonah Hex--anyone else remember?
-
Wake up...
-
Come on people. Do you think this is real? I mean, Aaron Eckhart is a dedicated actor, but I seriously doubt he'd let them melt the flesh from his face. He really wouldn't be able to get any other parts if they really spilled acid all over half his face. And talk about infections.
-
...with the people who think this looks photoshopped. I'd love this to be real, but I'm very skeptical.
-
Want to bet the critics declare this film off limits to kids?
-
i smell photoshop, but I looked over and Kurt Russell was laughing...
-
This is the real deal, and it's been taken down by Warner Bros at alot of places for they are pissing bricks at this leaking out. Expect this to be taken down real soon here...
-
scary. This is gonna be awesome!!
-
gotta calm down. I mean come on. If it's close to this though, it will rule.
-
It's not an actual screengrab from movie or an actual candid pic of Aaron Eckhart. It's a concept art and this is close to how it'll end up since they are going with this. If you haven't read "The Long Halloween", you should see how two-face looks in that comic for they are going with that design.
-
This may be the actualy "design" for Two-Face, but it's also a rather poor photoshop job... look at the blurring around the nose. Expect the textures to be quite different in reality.
-
... then why did Warner Bros. request it be pulled from Comic Book Resources?
-
didn't he look pretty nonchalant in the trailer in the one quick shot of him in the taxi where his face looked to be burnt on the opposite side? also, if the burn came from that pile of gasoline, there's no way it could do that serious damage to just one side of the face, without even singing his hair on the opposite side...someone find the aaron Eckhart pic that the photoshopper used to make this and we can put it to rest...
-
One of my best friend's uncles works on the production team and he said straight up that this is what Two Face is going to look like in the film. This was leaked and WB is trying really hard to get them off the internet, so save this picture while you can because it won't be here much longer. Let me repeat now, this is NOT photoshopped, this is REALLY from the movie.
-
But that doesn't mean it's not a Photoshop image done for a concept sketch or something.
Coming from a graphic designer this is really nice looking, so nice that it's hard to think this was an amateur job for a hoax.
Count me as skeptical but hopeful. -
I still like his classic look int he comic a bit more. I eman yay that a director is going allt he way and whatnot but it's still based on an established character and I can practically see Nolan behind hte scenes saying "Oh look at how gross I can make this! Aren't yous o grossed out at how far I went??!!" It all just seems a bit....much. I don't mean I needed him to have purple skin on the burned part or anything like that, but going outright skeletal seems more silly than it does realistic.
-
I think its from the The Mummy. I think after he gets eyes from one victim, but hasn't fully reconstituted himself yet....
-
YAY! Lets compare the "not completely burned" action figure with this "ZOMG PHOTOSHOPPED! REAL BUT IM AFRAID TO DENY IT! OH GOD ILL BE OWNED WHEN THIS IS REAL" pic.
Once again, this is real deal and you can quote me on it when it's confirmed. -
i always thought the concept of Two-Face was a little unlikely. how EXACTLY half of his face was burned, perfectly down the middle. obviously, it made for some very cinematic drawings and such. but given Nolan's take on the Joker, i figured Two-Face would have a tuff of burned scalp and a nasty chunk missing from a third of his face. this mockup looks realistic, but still improbable.
-
Man, I'd love to see THAT character get a good gritty movie. Jonah Hex, I mean.
-
If that is real, then... wow. Mr. Nolan is really setting the tone with this... And I thought Joker looked scary enough... Holy S***...

It's damned well done. There's been some serious time spent on it.
But here's why I think it's bullshit:
1. The neck. Not sure what it is about it but it doesn't look right. Like the shadows are artificial, and the gradient between the make-up of Two Face and the plain face of Harvey Dent is too perfect.
2. The graininess. As someone who works in TV and uses tools like Photoshop and Combustion a lot, graininess is something you add to finished footage, not only to give it a grittier look, but to cover up subtle details like photoshop-looking shadows and touch-ups.
So my ultimate verdict: FAKER THAN KENNEY ROGER'S NEW FACE -
it's probably a pre-production image, a make up test or photoshop mock up. i think its pretty close to what we'll get in TDK. and seeing the toy link that yackback posted pretty much confirmed it, they are almost identically in style. Cant wait to see this movie, do you think the joker is the one who scars dent though? what do you all reckon?
-
on the burned side of his face. Eckhart likely performed with Green makeup or tracking markers on his scarred side. As much has been admitted in interviews.
-
Is that line getting old?
-
That they were using a lot of CG to do Two Face.
-
THATS BECAUSE ITS CONCEPT ART! You don't know what concept art is, do you?
-
then won't he have to look this disgusting throughout the entire next movie? no way they're gonna let that happen, it's too gross and realistic.
just because WB doesn't want this out there, doesn't mean it's real. it might just be that they don't want a seriously disgusting image out there being posted as an actual grab from the movie. it's PG-13, they don't want to scare away anyone, after all.and please stop with this shit: "my dentist's friend's uncles' dog groomer's sister works at the building next to the guy who drives Aaron Eckhart's personal assistant's rich aunt to the mall, and he says that he heard from a guy about this, and it's real."SHUT. UP. holy hell, that shit is sad. -
And if that's the case, then that explains a lot.
-
I never would have reached that conclusion on my own. lol
-
But this is what was described to me a few months back as to what the look was going to be. As far as it being in a PG-13 movie, it doesn't look any worse than the prosthetics used in the Mummy films of late and there were numerous "tweens" there when I went to see those.
-
This is my last talkback for this post.
CG Artists need concept art. Concept Art helps him bring the CG to life for they have something to visualize.
CG Artists NEED Concept artists and vice versa.
That said, this is a concept art that will be used for the final CG.
THAT SAID, Two-face is a mixture of CG and actual makeup. -
Although I sort of wish it was if I had to compare the two. But int eh action figure his nose is almost completely intact and int eh trailer there is clearly burning at the edge of the nose. So there you go. This isn't terrible but the exposed muscles and bone is kinda eh. Just because it worked on print in The long Halloween doesn't mean it works on screen. But htat's just my opinion. I wish they had gone for something a bit cooler looking than just flat out grotesque. maybe in motion it will be better. It looks like they're gonna have to use CG to get this effect though, and thatll be unfortunate.
-
that made me laugh, thank you shagg...
and also, I think you're picture about the wrong. -
That is one ugly-ass burnt up sombitch!!!
-
Lying in the Gutters pulled the pic down. WB got to them. This is the real deal, folks. Save it while you can.
-
I'm sick of this back and forth, its ridiculous. It's a movie still not pentagon secrets so since the cat is out of the bag just let it go and own up. I really don't want to hear a month long debate on the nuances of Harvey Dent's face if it's really what this picture says it is.
-
and why doesnt harvey die from a massive infection?
-
But damn if I don't have faith that Nolan is going to turn this fucker into gold. The tone is awesome, from the trailers anyways, and I can definitely see this one being the "Empire Strikes Back" of this trilogy...if it is a trilogy, if you ask me they could make ten of them if they are of the quality of the first two. Two bad about Ledger for alot of reasons, but as far as this topic,really too bad he won't be able to get the praise he deserves for this role.
-
Yeah, I think the Joker burns his face. Evil begets evil, and it's an interesting "passing of the torch" (no pun intended) to the next installment. Good stuff.
-
From what you can see in the new trailer, where the damage begins looks the same as in this pic. Looks like what Nolan would do with Two-Face, and now I'm actually psyched about a character that never really interested me before.
-
How could you so blatantly draw influence from the charred remains of the airplane fuel burnt victims of 9.11??? How much more are you going to toy with the sentiments of the American people? Do you think we cannot see through you and how you have not so subtly burnt the one American politician, the one bastion of democracy throughout this whole killing joke of a movie? Are you trying to infer that the democratically elected officials of the United States are all two-faced and must not be trusted? Must you drag out that conspiracy??? Don't you support the American troops and their families??? NEVER FORGET! I BELIEVE IN DONALD RUMSFIELD!
-
Come on guys think. If you know your movies you should already have a pretty good idea of what two-face is gonna look like. Liam Neeson in Darkman. If the design is as garish as Ekhart says in his LA time sinterview than we can all assume it will be close to the look of Darkman.
-
........the first asshat comes along and says that no matter if this is fake or not it won't matter anyway because TDK is going to "suck" and that iron man "rules"., and that BB was "boring". i give it about another 2 or 3 minutes.
-
i just hope the damn thing is real. it'd be great to get as much of this done for real as possible and then add in some cg greatnesses, like the teeth.... that would look awsome.
-
That looks really good
-
This isn't a real picture...it is potentially concept art but I doubt that's even correct with others who have been on the set saying his face is more purple and scarred than skeletal. I'm going with 100% Grade A bullshit. Next thing you know, Quint will post a picture of the 'Man Who Laughed' poster and say it's The Joker...these kneelickers fell for that one too.
-
Pretty frikkin' scary! That will definitely leave an impression on audiences.
-
I dunno, but the collar bugs me! it has photoshop written all over it. It is an awsome picture and maybe it is an early design, but why isnt the total collar tarnished like the rest. It looks like a picture on top of a picture.
-
I thought nolan said that harvey two-face's scar wouldn't be as symetric as it was in the comics. i mean, if they're going for realism, its kind of hard to believe that it would go RIGHT down the middle of his face. and wouldn't you think he'd be blind in his left eye at the very least? i like that he has no ear though.
-
either way, reminds me of dark man
-
.....the same asshat (or possibly a different asshat alltogether) will suggest that there is NO WAY heath ledger will be good as the joker because 20 years ago jack played the joker and he "owned" the role. if and when this happens try to resist the urge to hope said person (or persons) die of painful ass cancer. lol.
-
Some aloe balm would definitely help with that
-
Anyone know?
-
- this is probably the concept art for two-face. (which is why WB would still want it taken down) this isnt real, but the direction they were headed. -The toy, trailer, concept art all have the symmetry of the scar a little different, so they probably played around with a few different ideas. -yeah it looks gruesome, but no worse than the mummy, and those are kids movies. -the dark knight is going to be awesome.
-
I know someone who's seen work prints of the movie, you dont see it till the end, but its 100% real
Oh and Maggie go splat. -
that ends up being almost cartoony. If this is real, then so much for the "realism" in this Batman interpretation. I was expecting less burns and more scars I think.
-
I only ask given the more realistic tone the movies were shooting for.
-
when you're driven insane.
-
but its a beauty & hope its real concept art
-
ROFLMAO. I love you, man.
-
im not sure if it looks real enough for me. if this IS the real thing i could handle it. but i dont think after the incredible detail and attention to other things that have been revealed, that they would 'slack' somewhat on the big suprise of the movie.
-
Until WB releases a confirmation on this and all you "ZOMFG PHOTOSHOPPED" idiots are proven wrong. I just wish I could see the looks on your faces when it happens, LMFAO.
-
They just requested that Comic Book Resources remove the image.
-
Why are we so obsessed with two-face so soon. As far as we know this movie could bomb as bad as "Batman and Robin" (please let me be wrong!) but lets wait and see if Nolan can do a double header before we get too exited about Batman vs. two-face. It's kinda like getting excited that Dr. Connors showed up in the Spider-man films only to realize that the Lizard is far from making a big screen debut.
-
dont wont to pity him too much, want to be terrified of him
-
Good side its a fucking amazing take on Two-Face and hope its real or close to what we're gonna get in the movie. Or Bad side, its a fucking amazing fake that really should be put in the movie! Either way, it just makes the waiting even that much more exciteding! IRON MAN kick started everything with a rocket kick to the nuts! Lets hope that THE INCREDIBLE HULK continues the streak till THE DARK KNIGHT.
-
He's turning into one of the aliens from Mars Attacks!
-
Half zombie, half lawyer.
-
Two-Face is meant to be pittied and feared at the same time. Because when you look at his face you see 2 different men. The man he used to be and the man he has become. Even in the comic books, Two Face is easy to feel sympathy for because he used to be a good man but then he got fuckin owned and he indulged in his darker side. He's a very unique, complex villain, and he was also a good friend of Bruce Wayne and they both believed that the city deserved absolute justice.
-
He looks too much like a zombie or, like Mirajeff said, Darkman. It's grotesque for the sake of grotesque. I'd much rather something that allowed him to be a bit more expressive and look kinda evil and crazy rather than just dead. The other side of Harvey Dent is a madman, not simply just a lack of good. But I doubt most of the talkbackers on this site could tell the difference or care. With Christopher Nolan involved you could make his head half a Care Bear and everyone would be proclaiming brilliance.
-
But I duno i think it will be hard to beat Dark Knight this year. It is looking way too good.
-
yeah yeah but he should still look more rabid on the disfigured side
-
I don't buy it, it's not enough like the dark knight action figure pic that leaked a while back.
-
its nice to see how the person who made it gave a real world reason for why one of his eyes would be bigger than the other, that was a nice touch.
-
And maybe some of that spray that helps with sunburn, and lots and lots of Vicodin....
-
Not the photoshop job, the design itself. I think I must be the only one here that doesn't think it's that great. It just looks way too makeup-y around the eye and mouth. If this is a concept art, I hope they took it a bit more extreme and a bit less cartoony in those areas.
-
i dont agree with your argument, nolan would do whatever it takes to look brutally noir comic realistic
-
Like i said way back in this talkback, I have a real strong feeling that Dent will look much like Darkman. No lip, exposed teeth, and a deep red/purple tone. Of course how many different variations of a burned face like Dent have. In the end it will just be a guy with a portion of his face burned red/purple and a few garish scars.
-
ya but i bet he will have a more sinister look to him when we see it in action and not just a photo just wait u will see dude
-
Man, this is so much better than the cartoon Two-Face we got in BATMAN FOREVER. Nolan is taking the big-screen BATMAN mythos to whole new levels. He's not afraid to take chances, and he knows that over-the-top cartoony crap is not what the fans want. This is at the same time scary and DAMN impressive.
-
Thats all I got, holy shit! I'm totally blown away. This film cannot come soon enough
-
level
-
First IRON MAN, and now this. I am totally blown away. This summer's crop of movies just keep looking better and better. It's a good time to be a film fan!
-
"TDK is going to be a comics film for adults." Well? Yep. Iron Man is also good for adults. My point is. compare what we are getting from Nolan and Favreau to... Raimi. Yeah. I like Raimi, but this is a different league, friends. Nolan is polished goods. DC and Warner can rest easy and let the director have full freedom.
-
I dont know much about burns and scarring, but maybe overtime (like by movie #3) he'll heal to a point of having reddish skin. Or I'm talking out of my ass.
-
WB asking someone to take it down isn't confirmation that this is what Two-Face will look like. It's just confirmation that WB owns the image.I usually don't weigh in on these things, but I'm gonna say that's an early concept image. "Let's take it to the extreme and dial it back from there" kinda thing.I say this for a few reasons. Execution of this design would take a lot of work in post. Does that extra work really bring all that much to the character that would have been lacking in a more practical design? Doubt it. Is the point of Two-Faces design to make a good portion of the audience vomit? Doubt it. I just think beyond the initial "wow" factor this design would just be distracting.I could be wrong though. I'm not that bright.
-
guess that between the scared joker and the burned up two face this will be somewhat of a pg 13 movie
-
It's called FANTASY FILM for a reason! There ain't no sound in space, but that doesn't make STAR WARS any less great. If you want realism, save your ticket money and watch all that TRAUMA TV crap on the Discovery Channel. We're film fans, and we don't need science lessons!
-
if it is original , its obviously not the finished look since this isnt a pratical effect..it looks like a photoshop design..especially the eye and teeth.
-
a million times cooler than the tommy lee jones two face...that just looked gay..pink hair, purple face..lol
-
they may use some for some of the shots, but they've already said they are going to do most of the two-face work digitally throughout the movie. they do it with zombies all the time. aaron talked about having filmed all the two-face scenes and how they were 'going back in' for the finishing touches.
so, this is what he will look like, and it's either an early concept that has been purposely distressed.the REAL question is how can anyone who this has happened to IMMEDIATELY go out and exact some justice. infection, pain, all that stuff. even if he leaves the hospital,even if all the nerves and shit have been cuterized- this is a lot to deal with!
-
It be grosser than this:
http://www.theweeklydonut.com/index.php/category/the-dark-knight/ -
If you keep picking at it.
-
doesn't look believable with the exposed muscle tissue
-
like the mouthslash in Pan's Labyrinth...and i dont think Nolan is so slavish to realism that he would shy away from TwoFace's comic bok look. Realism when talking about a man dressed as a bat is after all...
-
This guy gets credit for everything, even the makeup effects now? Yeah, he's a good director and approves some cool stuff, but most of the credit doesn't go to him in this case.
-
Put a little butter on it, she'll heal right up.
-
Two words Nolan: Epic win. -
they aren't gonna sell a kids toy that looks like that. the toy was dumbed down, but close. think about it.

It's Photoshop, but a good example of what the real thing will l
by prof. pop-cult
The inside word is that Dent's scarring is pretty graphic and horrific looking -- and that it is partially CG in close-up shots. So it's not just a cheesy make-up appliance glued to Eckhart's face.
-
I'm goinf with concept art, but in yesterdays LA times: "Eckhart says director Christopher Nolan “is going way farther than people think” with Two-Face...."I can tell you that, basically, when you look at Two-Face, you should get sick to your stomach. Being the guy under all that, well, that was a lot of fun for me. It's like you would feel if you met someone whose face had pretty much been ripped off or burned off with acid. I can't talk about it beyond that because I don't want to give away too much of the plans by Chris."
-
look at the portrait. what scene would that be from. it's a headshot given to the fx artist to go to town with. i'd hope that this is the 'immediate' damage face, hence the open red wounds in the burnt skin. i doubt harvey goes out like this. maybe they show him like this in the hospital. he escapes. months pass, he comes out at the end of this (and pt 3) and we get the nice malformed skin and open mouth.still wish the eye was blinded though. it would be a nice symbol of his sense of justice going blind and out of balance.

WHY this could be very real (WARNING! Possible SPOILER)...
by big dumb ape
YESTERDAY the LA TIMES put up a new entertainment article online where they interview Aaron Eckhart. The article says (quote)...The trailers for "The Dark Knight" have shown quite a bit of Heath Ledger's scabbier, surlier reinvention of the Joker, but the producers have been keeping the film's other Batman bad guy, Two-Face, under wraps. "That's right, people don't really know yet," actor Aaron Eckhart said with grin. "I can tell you that, basically, when you look at Two-Face, you should get sick to your stomach. Being the guy under all that, well, that was a lot of fun for me. It's like you would feel if you met someone whose face had pretty much been ripped off or burned off with acid. I can't talk about it beyond that because I don't want to give away too much of the plans by Chris."The article then goes on to note something rather interesting. What the actual HEART and FOUNDATION of this film REALLY is going to be...The death of Ledger and the word of his incendiary performance have made him the natural focus of early media coverage of "The Dark Knight." But Nolan told The Times this year that the foundation of the film is the tale and transformation of Eckhart's character, Harvey Dent, from a crusading Gotham City prosecutor to Harvey Two-Face, a maniac whose face is ravaged on one side by a horrible injury.In regards to the debate over this leaked still, and if it is a photoshop job or not, we might want to take THIS to heart. The article then adds...Eckhart won't discuss that, but he did say that the wounds are structurally deeper than in the comics: "There are fans on the Internet who have done artist's versions of what they think it will look like, and I can tell you this: They're thinking small; Chris is going way farther than people think."So reading all that, it's possible that this really IS an actual production still, and it would explain why Warner Bros is now freaking out and frantically scrambling to have sites pull it down because they didn't want anyone to see Two-Face until the actual film was released -- in other words, they were saving the shock of "what" he looked like as an actual in-film surprise. Also, with all the heavy promotion on Ledger and the Joker, it's possible that Nolan DIDN'T want to tip his hand to just HOW MUCH Two-Face is actually going to be in this thing or how big a role he will play. In particular "who" is actually the one hunting down the Joker in this movie (SPOILER WARNING)... There were plenty of name actors lined up hoping to get the role of Two-Face, but in the end Nolan went with Eckhart because of his "complexity and this aura he has of a good man pushed too far," Nolan said. Two-Face in the film is more of a vigilante hunting down the Joker than he is a criminal, as he has most often been portrayed in the comics. His trademark is flipping a two-headed coin, one side defaced, the other pristine, and letting its landing determine his actions, often in situations where he has a gun to someone's head. "The difference between Batman and Two-Face is how far they are willing to go and how they make their point," Eckhart said. "Otherwise, we're talking about vigilante crime-fighting. That's what Batman is all about. He has a strong sense of justice. And Harvey Dent has an extremely strong sense of justice. His fiancée is killed. He's horribly injured. But he is still true to himself. He's a crime fighter, he's not killing good people. He's not a bad guy, not purely." "My guy identifies with everybody in the movie," Eckhart said. "Really, all of it is more than an adventure tale, it's somewhat of a mirror of our times. It deals with some fundamental questions of what's going on in society. To me, this film is about how Batman feels about justice, how he takes care of the city, how he feels about the Joker when he meets him and sees what he is capable of doing. How he feels when Harvey Two-Face takes matters into his own hands. It's not simple, and it gets ugly. I think people will be surprised."So...take it as you will. Maybe this IS real and Nolan is going balls out since he's tried to give so much of the other aspects a grounding in reality. So maybe he said, "Look, let's be realistic here. An acid burn that scars HALF your face is going to be fucking gross. So let's show people HOW gross it would be and literally WHY it would make your brain snap and turn you into a murderous criminal out for revenge."
-
completely consistent in tone
-
MORE BRAINS!!! THat's awesome
-
wow that is gnarly and gross. Very extreme! Not for kids, I think, ha ha. It is actually pretty disturbing lol, but I like how dark this is all getting.
-
I hate this, because I'm not going to be able to look at that in a movie. I'd rather it was more pleasant to look at, whatever that means.
-
looks funny. not intimidating
-
For those that are calling "fake", why...this looks fucking brilliant!? This IS what Two Face looks like in TDK...but I don't know if that makes it a legit production shot of just something fake some one in the know whipped up...either way, this IS what he looks like.
-
is what you are, hope you can still enjoy the movie
-
some make-up artists can do some SICK work with stuff like this; look at some zombie movies that have done a nice job. i don't see wy cgi would be necesary for a job like this. so i hope that this is fake.i dunno maybe im picky...but this picture seemsbsub-par for something so 'big budget.'
-
For those who say this image goes too far for a PG-13 movie, I would agree with others who have noted that we have had things like the MUMMY movies where you saw him slowly regaining form, and during that time he had holes in his face with his tendons showing and all that kind of grossness. And the movie ratings board has long been LESS worried about blood and MORE worried if you simply say "Shit" when issuing a rating.But secondly, and more importantly, someone above had a solid point. Even if Warner Bros. was speed dialing websites now and ordering them to take down this image, it's not necessarily a confirmation that this is the FINAL look in the film. Even CONCEPT art is fully owned and legally protected, and thus no one has the right to put that kind of stuff up EITHER. So Warner Bros saying "Take it down!" doesn't necessarily confirm one thing or another, other than it's THEIR image and they don't want it out there...
-
claiming that this is the real deal?
-
Not a still from the film. But it is indeed real concept art.
-
the more ridiculous it looks. Its one thing to go all the way and another to go over the top, which is how this looks.
-
...er, Backlash? The Joker done as I see him - as Nolan seems to see him - will give small children nightmares. Now Two-Face looks like he walked out of a Romero film. This is all well and good for me, but there are going to be a ton of parents bringing under-10 kids to this thing, and I fear either the film will be too intense for them or (more likely) the kids'll be fine but parents will be upset they saw them anyway. Remember, people complained that Batman Returns was too dark, and this seems to go well beyond that.
-
cmon man you cant leave us hanging like that. Is that silly muscle tissue really still there? How CG are they going?
-
needs to be. I hope it gives people nightmares...like YOU
-
this one is for the grown up kids, the one we been waiting for, no matter what the rating
-
zing.
-
Nolan is still the man for "going there". The artists design what are within Nolan's specifications, and wait for approval.

I worked on this film while it was in Chicago last summer, and I got see pics of the prosthetic team's work, it looks almost exactly like this in the film, for how long it's in there...
-
i don't like the red muscle strips in the mouth either, i like the lfared out cheek with the teeth and jaw showing, but 'realistically' he wouldn't be able to talk or move his jaw without it there. his mouth would be hanging half open. your jaw muscles are there, not in the hinge of your jaw.
-
i fucking hope not.
-
That's just ridiculous. Why does it need to be there? Because anything "dark" and horrific is automatically cool and NEEDS to be in a Batman movie? I love this obsession with dark, a word that, at least in relation to Batman, has lost all meaning. Batman is still based on a comic book. It still has a man in a fucking Bat costume fighting men in other ridiculous costumes getting away with impossible crimes while fighting impossible odds. It's not Silence of the fucking Lambs. It should still be cool and fun for everyone. I'm not sure when you (and I'm using the royal you)say Schumacher went "over the top" that it's the over the topness that you necessarily disagree with. Because this is every bit as over the top as anything Schumacher did, it's just completely on the opposite end of the spectrum. There is a middle ground between the two. You can have your costumed heroes and villains as well deep characterization without going absolutely insane. Look at Iron Man. And while Batman definitely needs a different tone than Iron Man there is no reason whatsoever that you have to wash Shumacher out of your mouth by going the horror movie route. Not to mention that it really betrays Two-Face, who should look every bit as bad ass as he does ugly, which is really all this pic is. You know, like in the comic book, which we all love and this movie is based on. And as for realism, nolan is no more realistic than Burton. If he was everyone would have recognized that Bruce Wayne is Batman immediately and he either would have been arrested within 24 hours of that car chase or shot within seconds of confronting a warehouse full of gun toting criminals. Also Yackbacker is totally correct, if Dent looked like this he would be dead or completely incapacitated if this was the real world. Let's not get bogged down in realism here.
-
It makes me hungry.
-
ofcourse this isnt what we are going to see int he movies, cuz if it was, i would say "HEY SPEND SOME MROE MONEY SO WE DONT GET A MUMMY LOOKING HARVY" SFX wise i mean. This is what they are going for, i wouldnt be surprised if this is what we see in theaters just well, the final product instead of this obvious early stage
-
Look, I'm not going to argue with all the M.D.'s in this talkback, but it's kind of aimless to debate the realism of any kind of look for Two-Face. Yes, there's no way this kind of mutilation would spare his eyeball. Yes, the trauma and probable infections would very likely make it impossible for him function. But that's the character. Should it just look like extreme sun poisoning like Tommy Lee Pruneface? And as for the notion of a 3/4 Face or mild Phantom of the Opera scarring... The whole point of this character, why he's iconic, is the highly improbable way in which he's scarred, perfectly reflecting how his personality is split... wait for it... right down the middle. Personally, I'd love it if this is how Big Bad Harv looks in the finished project!

I can't wait for Two-Face to walk in to Arkham
by particularly hard vato
And kidnap the joker to dip him in to skin bleaching chemicals for real. At the end of his rampage in the third one- he's still Harvey Dent- the district attorney- you know?
I mean, they have to get Adrien Brody to pick up the Joker role for the fifth one- after the fourth one where Harvey is recruited by Ras Al Ghul after he comes back...
I can't wait for some bad-ass fighting by Ras in the fourth film...
-

Talk about conflict for Batman... Ras tells Harvey that Bruce is Batman... Harvey gets locked up in Arkham...
Joker escapes and tries to Kill Alfred because he learns Batman is Bruce Wayne from Harvey in Arkham...
Man- they might be able to make another sequel! -
Real or not. You do exactly what big brothers wants. Debate over something that may or may not exhist. Four legs good, two legs bad!
-
in the comics he's been green, blue pink and purple, all signs of rat, infection or impossible trauma and no one complained. here we have a man who's flesh is literally charred off and we're all nitpicking infection and stuff. i have been too, and it's stupid. i loved the nimated series and most everyone agrees it had the best character treatments, but two face had a turoise face with warts and a giant tennis ball eye from an electrical/chemical explosion. wtf? then they even fix him and he scars himself again and is instantly turquoise again. impossible, but we ate it up.
i've seen burn patients. there are different levels of survivabilty and there are 'miracles' of sorts that defy science, esp. when willpoer is involved.
rest easy this is the 'immediate' wound concept. and when we see two face later, say, in pt 3, it'll be less char, more scar. -
If thats how Two-Face is going to look, then this movie got even cooler if thats possible.
-
It's a major spoiler concerning Batman 3 and the ending of Dark Knight, so I'm not so sure if it should be public yet...
-
...if it's removed from AICN within the next hour or so. Right Click->Save Image As...
-
This could be just after the burn, and then it heals a bit so it turns into a giant scar. Because I certainly wouldn't want a guy looking like that working as a DA in my city.
-
PLEASE, Nolan? He could have easily have escaped that train. I want Liam Neeson back.
-
First you WHINE and WHINE about Nolan going too realistic and not adhering to the comic books, now you WHINE and WHINE about Two-Face's scarring being too unrealistic and fantastical!! Just like Nolan's Joker needed to have a white face and red lips no matter what, Nolan's Two-Face needs to have the left side of his face seriously fucked up no matter what, no matter whether it's believable or not. If they HAVE gone with this design we won't see it as clearly as in this still, otherwise they would be hard pushed to achieve a PG-13 rating. That's why they should be going with the frakking R anyhow, especially with how horrific the acid-in-face scene SHOULD be, but that's another story. Nolan just went up further in my estimation.
-
Freeze it on the shot of Harvey with the gun, and you'll see that the undamaged skin goes further across his forehead than it does in this photo. It'll be similar to this, but this is probably an earlier version.
-
...is sad. I'm glad they brought him in first as Harvey, as opposed to what was done in Batman Forever. Harvey isn't one of the cookie cutter Rogues, but a "fallen angel" of sorts.
-
I wasn't expecting such a great shot so early (wasn't really expecting anything till just prior to the release), so this is a pleasant surprise either way. But wow! That look is incredible. I remember seeing a pic of a Two-Face toy coming out in the summer and the look of the figure reminded of the Tommy Lee Jones Two-Face from Batman Forever. Not exactly what I was hoping for with The Dark Knight. But this is dead fucking on. Now I'm even more excited.
-
I hope the real thing is at least half as awesome as that concept art.
-
It's actually a combination of conventional and CGI make-up.
You can tell by the extra "shinny" muscle fibers and teeth. Also in the eye and socket. The rest you can tell is conventional make-up.
Part this, part that... all bad-ass!!! -
Yuck.

Kudos, sir, I was waiting for someone to pick up on that. Fuck too soon, that was funny.

Every pic, poster and trailer I see gets me more stoked. What a fantastic year to be a fan boy!
-
Will someone get this man some Neosporin?!?! Come on!!! You all are standing around like a bunch of slacker grocery clerks!*** GO NOLAN! ***
-
I think this is great. but I also think it is fake.What is going to make this character awesome is how they film him. The cinematography. When he is talking, anything that is twisted and shows the corrupt side of Dent should be filmed on his mangled side of his face and when he remembers something good it should show the right side of his face. Maybe even a conversation with himself between the two sides.
-
... is a very had word to say without proper lips
-
Wasn't there a shrunken head or something that looked like that in Beetlejuice?
-
would stand around with your head up your ass clapping for a big stinking Nolan turd in a box. Are you fucking morons or do you derive that much self-esteem from the fact you like a shitty overhyped Batman movie? I can hear Nice Gaius slurping the Nolan cock as I type.
-
or a shitty insipid design. Take your pick but either way there is a lot of brown nosing shit sniffers in here.
-
If thats the real deal (Which i hope it is...). The Dark Knight is this years most anticipated film for me...
-
It's not a photograph of Eckhart in the makeup, it's a design. Some of you act like PS is some evil thing only used by fans making fanart. PS is used on everything and by everyone in the art and photography and design fields. Guess what? Every movie poster is fucking Photoshopped in one way or another (or fed through a vector program like Illustrator/Freehand (long live FH) to get the crisp titles).
-
Why is his collar intact but the part of the shirt below it is not?
-
Based on what you can infer from the blurry photos of the action figure, this is pretty close. Plus, Eckhart is on record saying it's extreme and should make the average person ill.
-
is he going to be squirting visine in his eye the whole time?Also anyone else notice that Ledger gave Jokr a nervous twitch of licking his lips? I guess a result of his cheshire smile accident?
-
Do you have any idea how much of a fucking bore you are?
-
Heaven forbid the dude changes his shirt. And this has been confirmed as concept art by EVERYONE by now, do we need to keep having this debate?
-
1. In the comic, Ras dies many, many times. He has access to something named 'The Lazarus Pit' which allows him to resurrect his body (damage his mind though, I believe) 2. It hasn't been PROVEN that Joker is the one to scar Harvey. It is pretty refreshing that the trolls ARE finally starting to dry up in the Batman threads. Only one douchebag here
*coughpoeticwarriorIIcough* -
Batman-on-Film has a blurb on it. It's an early design from around the time the design of Joker have raggedy clothes (instead of the final purple suit). The source that leaked the accurate Joker information confirms that this Two-Face design is much closer to the final than the still unseen Joker design, but that it doesn't do it justice when you see it on camera.
-
Holy fucking shit! It kicks ass! Alright, I will avoid all images and spoilers for this movie untill opening day. My balls are like fucking watermelons right now.
-
Concept Art
-
These aren't kids films. There may be toys and bullshit associated with it, but they were never intended to nor were they filmed as kiddy flicks.
-
I might be crazy but if you look enough at it you might notice it somewhat has some features similar to Batman's mask....the facial opening around the mouth area, and various other things I notice. Am I the only one that sees this?
-
The photo doesn't quite match the screen grab of Harvey's face with the gun where you can see part of the scarring. That said, let's pretend that the photo is either a screen grab or a concept piece. Either way, let's assume that it's pretty darn close to the final movie version. Now, if they're gonna try to sell toys to kids, do you really think that they'd make THAT into an action figure? In honor of Cinco de Mayo I just have one thing to say, "No Way, José." They'd "tame" the toy down so that, while it's ugly and scary, it isn't "that" scary. Just a guess.

my bad.
-
maybe I was looking at it too long
-
at first I wasnt going to watch because I don't think the filmmakers understand the joker. But if that is Harvey dent, then I will see this friggen movie.
-
But as much as I'd like to believe this isn't a fake...well, I'm not so sure if I can yet. We can only hope.
-
(which I kinda doubt), that might be Harvey before they try to repair him a bit. But I agree with others, it's likely concept or a fake. Still... it's fucking cool.

Yucky!

"Read my lips."
"You don't have any." -
With aspects of it in the final film, but tweaks to what we're seeing here. God I cannot fucking wait for this movie. I gotta get me a longass purple coat.

Burton's Joker shouldn't have killed Bruce Wayne's parents, but not purely because it goes against comic continuity.
In most versions of the Wayne murder story, Joe Chill is killed by other criminals *before* Bruce Wayne becomes Batman. Bruce is forever denied a literal revenge against the individual who killed his parents, so he sets out to take metaphorical revenge on *all* criminals. It's very important for the character that Bruce Wayne be forever denied his catharsis. It's what keeps him in the Batman suit.
Contrast with Burton's Batman. Bruce discovers, about two months after becoming Batman, that the one arch criminal terrorizing Gotham City is also the one who killed his parents. He chases the Joker up a tall building and throws him off of it, thus saving Gotham and exercising his personal demons at the same time. The convenient, ridiculously contrived plot twist helps giving false depth to the Batman-Joker relationship ("You made me." "You made me first.").
But... what keeps Batman in the suit after the credits roll? Psychologically, he's already achieved everything he wanted.
That's why Joker-makes-Batman sucks, in a way that Ra's-makes-Batman doesn't. -
First off, this TB has officially entered the level of ROTS will "own your ass" glory from 2005. Second, comments on Margot Kidder are dead on. Not only would she smoke your cigs, drink your booze, then take it in the ass, but would also hog the TV remote, fail to flush, and eat all your pizza you had in the fridge.. . .and the have a beer and cheat on your wife, with Hulk Hogan quoting "brother" non stop
-
So I don't know if anyone has already pointed this out, but comics2film.com had an interview where they were talking about how gross Two Face was going to look, this looks like the description from the interview.
-
it reminds me of the cartoon in a way. gives a better tist to the already pretty boring character.

-
There was this afican american woman who would sing for Jesus on the corner where I used to work. She was horribly disfigured by a fire half of her head looked like a skull with no eye just a open eye socket and no nose or ear. She was very sweet but lord I still shudder when I think about looking at her face. I got the same vibe seeing this pict. Ive heard simlar horrifying stories from my cousin who works in a burn unit. And yes im too chikenshit to go and see. So I can see how this face can be plauseable. Hey its still a comic book movie. So a bit of comic book tweeking is not a bad thing one bit. But good lord! If this is the real deal there will be kids with nightmares all over after seeing this movie. And I LIKE IT! Far too long movies have been pussyfied and toned down. When was the last really scary horror movie?? Still thinking? Nolan will have balls bigger then beachballs if this thing is real and hopefully will be the end of non scary PC horror films. PG-13 rating hmm. Warner is prolly pulling every string in the book to get that rating.
-
Fuck those ratings stick-up-the-ass bitches.
-
Or the conceptual artist is for coming up with the design?
I swear, artist live in the shadows of the directors. -
i like how the batman reboot is taking it all quite serious ala the first 2 batman movies and not the 3rd and 4th which were overly cartooney.....but this is far and above tommy lee jones's two-face....very gruesome
-
nolan would be the one to more than likely approve every step of the way and give the direction for what he wanted. Quint knows Nolans name but not the artist. One thing being a starving artist but no need to be a bitter one.

I know its not the best, but its still my favorite Batman Forever rules. Val Kilmer was the best Batman by far.

by drfartbrain
It was noted that there will be two product lines: one with figures true to the movie designs, and one with the features (such as the Joker's scarring) toned down. This probably explains the difference.
-
...my buddy works for a post house that's doing a DARK KNIGHT special for the History Channel. He saw the scene that's in the trailer where Two Face is in the car...said he than turns to camera revealing his scarred face and this looks EXACTLY like what he described.
-
'cause that's him.
-
Try saying that without lips. I was always amazed at how articulate Darkman was with no lips.

Gosh it's nice to say 22 Marvel films...though some sucked... 1) X-men United 2) Spider-man 2 3) Spider-man 3 4) Spider-man (yeah I'm a Spidey fan) 5) Iron Man (that shite rocked! 6) X-men 7) Daredevil (sorry folks, i'm one of the few that loved it) 8) Hulk (I liked its cerebral take) 10) Blade 11) X-men: The Last Stand (had its moments 12) Fantastic Four (again with its moments) 13) Ghost Rider (the look was perfect and Cage was enjoyable at least) 14) The Punisher (Tom Jane's version...Howard Saint sucked but the parts copied panel for panel from Garth Ennis' version was great) 15) The Punisher (Dolph Lundgren's version...yeah i remember it fondly b/c of when I was a kid but I find it surprisingly re-watchable as a good action flick if not a good marvel flick) 16) Fantastic Four: ROTSS (SS was the only cool part and not in it enough) 17) Captain America (1990 version...has its moments definitely..the costume aint bad...has some elemens of Cap...and that's good enough to make the list) 18) Fantastic Four (1994 version...come on put it in the VHS and not laugh! It's camp classic...but you gotta admit Dr. Doom's look is perfect and way better than the new FF...11 years later....pretty sad) 19) Blade 2 (love Guillermo...hated this mess his only horrible movie) 20) Elektra (meh...) 21) Man-thing (it was a sci-fi movie with horrible story and acting but it had Man-thing's look perfect and better than 22) Blade 3 (utter shite...nuff' said)
-
...but its gotta be fake. WB would never let something like that go for a movie of this magnitude. This is their bread and butter for the summer and that's some serious R rated shit right there. Also I just got home from work and its going on 2am. The pics been up for 7 hrs, if it's real and been taken down all around the internet don't you think WB would have checked AICN by now. I want it to be real too...but it isn't.

May 06, 2008 12:58:07 AM CDT
Oh, and glad Moriarty cleared up that this is concept design
by dogmatic
b/c they reaaaaally need to tone it back some. I was looking for more something like Two-Face was in The Long Halloween since they're using that some for inspiration. THis pic is just too un-realistic for a movie that is trying to be realistic. NObody could survive walking around with their face like that...at least not in Nolan's Batman universe
-
You, my friend, just lost all credibility and fail at life. Batman Forever as the best ever. Either you're gay, or haven't any taste in a good movie. For fuck's sake...Batman Forever? Seriously?
-
That is some seriously bad ass concept rendering. I think that this particular image draws too much attention to gore. Give him a cheek and some eyelids and you're golden.
-
I didn't say it was the best ever. I just said it was my favorite. I said that Val Kilmer was the best batman, adding the by far was stupid because its a toss up between him and Bale. I just chose Kilmer because he is American, and Batman is a purely an American. I did say that I knew it wasn't the best, just my favorite. I am sorry if I offended your Batman Begins is perfect universe, but lets face it Batman probably wouldn't be as popular had it not been for the Adam West show, and those first set of movies are a continuation of that. All in all its Batman we are talking about here, its almost getting to the point about arguing as too which Bond is the best. But I always felt that Batman was an American, and its kind of sad that it took a team of Brits and god himself to make a Batman movie that geeks like Rodo can tell there co-workers how much closer it is to the comic books then the original 'gay' movies are.
-
if you happen to come up with a half-way witty answer within the next two days I sure would like for you to tell me tiger. I'll be waiting with bated breath!
-
Also have you seen Dark Knight? For all we know it could just suck. So why don't you get Nolan's balls out of your mouth and stop reaching for the reach around until after you've seen it. I am not saying its going to suck, just saying no one has any idea yet. Why don't you just go play with your Batman nipples in anticipation for the new movie.
-
Speaking of Batman Forever, anyone remember the Jon Favreau cameo in it? Come now, he did Iron Man!
-
I could give two shits if it rocks or not. I was just stating that Forever was the beginning of the end for the original series. Forever began that neon faggots dream of crotch shots and nipple plugs. BLEH! This guy (me) is not a fan boy by any means. I work in "the biz," so my judgement of a movie is essentially a, "yeah, go check it out," or "Definitely a DVD'er." I'll let the fan boys have their glory though...they keep me paid.
-
Yay! This proves they can do the make-up, so let's have a 'Lucifer' movie!
-
In all reality that is a cool concept of TwoFace's look. I can't wait to see this realized.
-
So since you are in the biz and not a fan boy. Which Batman would you say is your favorite then.

DARKMAN > BATMAN 89'. You all know this to be true
-
"Normal Harvey or Burnt-all-to-Hell Harvey doll with your Happy Meal, sir?"
-
I don't know, really. I honestly wish that Forver and B&R had never been made. Joel Schumacher sterotyped gay people everywhere in his approach to to the subject matter. The two Burton films were good, with B89 being better, but they were both a bit campy and over the top. The problem is, back in 1989 the campiness worked for the film. It was cool, and everyone thought that Batman was the shit! No, though, we want more. We need realism. Even in fantasy, we need it to a degree. Begins was a great origin story and right now, my fave. Having said that, you ask the 9 year old inside of me which is better, and I'll say Batman 89. From what I have heard in basic buzz and "confirmed" rumors about the direction of Nolan's franchise, The Dark Knight likens to the discovery of The Hatch on LOST. This will be the Empire to a rather bland New Hope. You get my drift.
-
In that LA Times interview, Eckhart discusses how Two-Face's role in DK is gonna be more akin to a vigilante crusader who uses extreme measures and his horrible deformity to exact his own brand of justice. Hmmmmmm, I wonder where I heard that before, might start with a DARK.....end with a MAN......
-
DARKMAN is Sam Raimi's magnum opus, nuff' said.
-
Katie Holmes declined the role based on the death scene. It created too many negative thetans around her, and she had requested an E-meter be brought to the set to cleanse her of her nasty Xenuiness. That's just what I heard though. Not to mention she's a robot.
-
That low-budge, douche movie with Qui-Gon? Lol. An opus??? Please...
Sure, lets shit on Evil Dead and Army of Darkness for a halfassed superhero with sensitive skin. Darkman is epic fail. You are Epic fail. Raimi and that Soap Opera of Spiderman 3 fails. Now THAT is nuff said. -
Nolan is using some thematic elements from that quote and quote "douche movie" in your beloved Dark Knight proves that Darkman is the fucking king of cult classics. I'd rather take Qui-Gon and his fucking elephant rather than Prince's faggy bat-dance any day.

spiderman 3 does epic fail, but DARKMAN is the balance due to its epic win.

I just know Joker is talking to Harvey when he says that.
-
Does his face melt after a period of time?
-
but I think he perfected it in the god-forsaken DTV sequels that deserve to rot in eternak fire.
-
if it is just concept art it looks truly horrifying. that being said, after a burn of this magnitue... wouldnt the victem undergo skin grafts? perhaps this is like "stage one" and stage two will feature a different look... with a messed up skin graft, so the guy doesnt have to apply a cream every 5 deconds....
-
maybe we should see Batman fuel up the tumbler, which would like go for like what, 300 ft/gallon. Even with the billions that Mr. Wayne has, he'd have to start living at a normal million-dollar household in the middle of suburbia to be able to drive that thing daily. Or nightly, whatever you will. Point is, not to be an ass, but while there are many elements of realism present in Nolan's world, there are still some things, such as Harvey's wounds, there are things that call for the audience to suspend their disbelief. Seriously, that will work in favor of everyone wanting to enjoy this movie. Plus, if half of the third-one consists of Harvey getting skin grafts and falling in love with his physician/therapist who'll probably would be played by Sarah Jessica Parker, I'm gonna call "Return of Durant" on that shit.

I wonder what the next step in movie effects is going to be? i mean we had make-up into camera tricks into stop motion into robotics into CGI... are they going to start using nanotechnology and actually put the actors into sets.. but the sets wont look 100% percent real at first, so all the fanboys will cry "why didnt they just use CGI? it totally looks better!"

The difference between Batman and Two-Face is how far they are willing to go and how they make their point... Harvey Dent has an extremely strong sense of justice. His fiancée is killed. He's horribly injured. But he is still true to himself. He's a crime fighter, he's not killing good people. He's not a bad guy, not purely

Hek ROTS was PG-13 and Anakin's body was pretty obliterated, legs burned off, etc. I could see them actually using this version of Two-Face within a PG-13 rating.
-
rich johnson calls SWIPE! on anything then goes and swipes every superman elseworlds story and the flying nun. what an asshole.

also don, you seem to be doing better now that transformers has left the cinemas. or maybe you're doing less coke.

It looks pretty genuine to me. and ties in with the pic of the action figure. -
and intense for a PG-13, the studio will bring back the Tommy Lee Jones look of the former Two-Face. Also, more Happy Meal toys can be sold. And PLEASE ADD A RAPPER! (Fingers crossed for Ludicrous, er, Loodakrysse).
-
We seen this before, people!!
-
I vote for Coolio.

... all Harvey Dent would have to do in order to avoid succumbing to infection would be to take an extremely potent anti-biotic medication, possibly topical. So, to all of you folks who are saying this doesn't fit in with Nolan's "real world" portrayal, you're wrong.
-
but not impossible, anyway, this is CONCEPT ART, which always looks far more OTT and often cooler than the final product.
Also That may be the right afterwards pic, I thik the later one will be more fleshy and less, zombieish -
ala POTC. That lipline continuity is impossible with prosthetics.
We may well be looking at seeing a CGI overlay for the movie, instead of traditional make-up. -
that the damage line goes down the leftish side of his nose, makes a wide turn around the left side of his mouth, leaving his lips unscarred. The line then runs back toward the middle of his chin.
We already know that Harv is not going to sport the 50/50 damage that has always been seen, The majority of his face will not be damaged.
-
People are saying it's not real as it doesn't match the action figure (which is not a 50/50 face split). However look at his left hand. The action figure is burnt, the trailer shows it is ok (holding the gun). This shows the action figure can not be used as an accurate source of what Two Face will look like.

There you go. Am I wrong here? I don't think that's fake. -
It very well may be something from the studio, but it is either concept art, or a one-off attempt, or somehting like that, but that is not Eckhart wearing make-up, and I am willing to be it is not the final version of what we will see in the movie.
-
for the double post.
-
Or green enough. Sometimes they color Two-Face green.
-
Tommy Lee Jones' purple latex Two-Face from 13 years ago. God bless Tommy Lee, but Joel Schumaker took a shit on Batman Returns. Too campy. Say, can't they transplant some skin from Harvey's butt and stick it on his face?

be the only one that opened this link last night and wonder. What cheesy b-movie are Harry and the gang trying to pimp now? Granted I didn't look at it till around 2AM, but still even today I am wondering if this is a test for an Army of Darkness sequel.
-
the make-up seems really heavy. Won't that effect the performance- facial expressions and what not? Still, if I was in Nolan's shoes I wouldn't change it- it more than makes up for the goofy purple people eater look that Tommy Lee Jones was sporting.
-
...have gotten burned out of the socket?... or dried up and fallen out 'cause he doesn't have an eyelid on that side?... and wouldn't he have gotten an infection and died anyway?... and couldn't they have gotten someone to hoax this who had better Photoshop skills?... and couldn't Harry be a little less gullible?

That is fucked up. Iron Man was fantastic but I have suspicions TDK might trump it and possibly become the greatest comic film ever made. Fuck then there is Indy. I frankly haven't been this excited as a filmgoer since 89.

Fuck the Joker, this is the reason I want to see the new Batman movie. Finally, a Two-Face worthy of the big screen. At least some effort went in to his makeup and appearance (unlike the Ledger Joker).

come on man those are so fake. Those are scenes from the black dahlia.

This will be an Underoos Hero "first" here folks. I am going to stick up for those of you who love BB and TDK. If that picture is the real thing, then I really hope for you guys sake that it isn't.

You haven't looked at it lately then. This looks like Two-Face except for the missing hair. You're a moron making false claims.
-
that URL you linked is a still from Black Dahlia thats been photoshopped.
-
They can order C and D orders on any intellectual propert out of their contol.
Again, "real", "official", and "final" mean totally different things.
It most likely is some form of a test for Dent's appearance, but the photo above is not Eckhart wearing make-up or appliances. -
They don't use Photoshop to only do tests. It's used all the way through along with a few other tools. Photoshop is not a prototyping tool. It's $600-700 for a full license.
-
Right on Brutha...ehehe
-
Two-Face literally has two faces in the comics. Keeping Two-Face "cerebral" or just in Dent's imagination wouldn't be adhering to the source material. Man, I hope this picture is real! Now that's Two-Face!!!!
-
Although I hope it's authentic, my suspicions tell me that the photo is a fake. Warner Bros. should have pulled the thing down by now. Apparently, they aren't threatened by its exposure, which tells me that it's the result of some Photoshop magic.

Again kudos to Nolan. He has nailed the true ethios of Batman:
by wowsah156
If this phot is in line with what Nolan wants then i am 100% behind Nolan and the studio on this movie. I will be seeing this at least twice. Nolan has nailed the underlying current of the characters in Batmans world. And the theme that unites them all is the horror. Bats, Joker, 2Face, allhave strong horro motifs in their visulas and character. I am so well pleased with Nolan. WB keep Nolan on and complete the trilogy with Shadow of the Bat, and introduce Bats own alter ego Matches Malone, Dick Grayson (and his tragic family) and allow a sub plot with Bats hunting down Mr Zsasz who has become a prolific serial killer, all the while he is dealing with 2Face. Nolan can do no wrong. And this comes from a true Batman comic fan who knows ALL the continuity.
-
He could play the lead role in Dark Man 4!
-
This really does look bad. This is not creative in the least. Someone was running out of time and opened up a Fangoria magazine and with their eyes closed, put their finger down on a page and said "That's it, that's the look!" Then they throw him in front of a Tokyo Starbucks and Wahlla!! You have a Batman Movie.
-
somebody get some Neosporin
-
Looks a lot like Glen Strange's Makeup in the Sequel.
-
I'm in love with Nolan and Gang's take on the characters in this franchise. I just hope Eckhart acts the part with as much awe as this make up job instills. Tommy Lee Jones version was just another Joker on caffeine.
-
I ask again, what do you like?
-
One Face? Thats One Fugly bitch! HA
-
I got a million of'em!!!
-
I saw this here last night and had a nightmare. my entire face looked like the left side of the face. Talk about effective!
-
Heart-wrenching. And its the narrative momentum of this subplot that sort of accelerates the story into something serious. Anyway- 'DannygloversDickblood'- I agree, I thought that Eckart was quoted as saying that the transformation would only be mental?
-
That is the first thing that crossed my mind - Darkman!
and then when I looked at the mouth I thought of Jonah Hex -
don't you mean Glen Agar.
-
people keep mentioning that this is too extreme for the little ones. Your right, it is. And little ones shouldn't be in the theater for this film anyway. Blame it on the parents, not Nolan. I remember seeing a 8 year old brought in to Beowulf. Fucking Beowulf. Was it the directors fault then too? Give me a break. Parents need to step up and screen a film, get involved before dragging 8 year olds into these type of movies. IF they bring their kids, its their own damn fault.
-
C'mon people. This is a movie and Harvey Dent/Two-face is a character. We are supposed to suspend disbelief, so who gives a rat's ass whether or not his character could survive so grievous a wound. It's a MOVIE. All of you who are bitching about the reality of it need to find something else to bellyache about. This film is based on a comic book, and the last I heard, nobody ever claimed that comic books had a basis in reality. Get real-suspend the disbelief, and enjoy this for what it is, a cool-ass looking character.
-
While I completely agree with you that it's the parent's responsibilities to screen any movie that's borderline before bringing the kids, the only problem is that Batman has been geared towards smaller kids as well. The cartoons that are on when the kids are home after school, toys, etc.
-
Absolutely!!! The ratings are there for a reason. If you have a little one, then the information in out there-both in print and on the web-for you to see whether a film is appropriate for kids of certain ages. I have a five-year-old daughter, and I ain't takin' her to this movie. But rest assured that I will be one of the first ones in line to see it on July 18. I will take my kid to see WALL-E and KUNG-FU PANDA. Just be responsible.
-
Just looked it up, Glen Langan was in the first one. The War of the Colossal Beast starred Duncan Parkin.
I was thinking of John Agar, those dudes look really similar. -
I, for one, get sick and tired of seeing very young children at movies like this. I don't really give a shit about ratings, because I know enough about films before they come out to judge whether I should take a small child to see it. But for the uninformed, the ratings have a purpose. It's no wonder that so many kids are so fucked up. Face the facts-there are a lot of parents who need to have their brain dead faces slapped for being so stupid and irresponsible. And the argument about not having enough money to get a baby sitter doesn't wash either. If you fall under that category, then you probably ought to be spending your cash on something other than movie tickets in the first place.

And to top off the issue about taking responsibility for the films you take the impressionable to-several years ago, I went to see RED DRAGON. When I got to the theater, a van load of mentally retarded people were being taken into the movie by two guys who were there to "babysit" them, if you will. Now, what in the fuck were these idiots thinking-taking mentally handicapped people to a Hannibal Lecter flick. That had to be one of the dumbest, most irritating and irresponsible things I have ever witnessed in my many years of movie-going. And There were people in the audiance who had little (4-8 year-old) kids with them. What the hell are people thinking? It's sad as well as anger-inducing. And the people running the theater don't give a flying fuck as long as they get their cash. I guess it just more examples of the fact that in this world we live in we are surrounded by morons who don't care.
-
Traditionally Two-Face has always had the right side of his face messed up. Even in The Dark Knight promo poster featuring Harvey Dent, he's holding up a button eclipsing the right side of his face which would be correct. But in the trailer the burning appears to be done on the left, corresponding with the scarring in this pic (fake or not). Am I making too much out of this?
-
Looks like Batman's nightmare which is exactly the direction I'd like these movies to go.
-
Isn't that what half the face is from...that John Carpenter movie with Roddy Piper...I'm sure of it...
-
Just think: Just over 10 years ago we got given Batman and Robin now look what we're getting. Amazing. Hats off, even if it is just concept art. And the kids can fuck off. This is our Batman film, 10 years after you had yours.
-
At the very least, the photoshop 'noise' filter as been applied to the image, which is suspicious.
On another note, if I was one of TDK's cgi artists, I would keep the digital model of Eckhart's head, and use it to put the 'two-face' side on every shot in 'Thank you for not smoking'. -
Here's a link to War of the Colossal Beast.
http://www.imdb.com/media/rm4170554368/tt0052378 -
Even though this is concept art, it must be near to what they're going for or WB wouldn't be shitting bricks to get it off the net. Hope it's not *quite* as extreme as this - some straggly hair on the Two-Face side woudl be good, but pleased that they're going for it full on. Parents, prepare your kids for nightmares.
-
I'm not blaming Jones, given the material and director he had. If this picture is real this will be incredible.
-
If you look on any U.S. currency coin, the particular U.S. President is turned to his left so you see the right side of their face. As a silver dollar is the symbol of Two-Face's modus operandi, it makes sense to make the right side of Dent's face the "good" side which is symbolized by the heads side of the coin, and the left side, symbolized by tails (also scored with a knife), as the "evil" side.
-
Sorry my error, never saw Black dahlia. I thought it looked genuine, in fact I'd be happy with that look.
-
At least his teeth are still pealrly white
-
FUGLY!
-
I wonder if he will be using his coin to make judgement calls
-
Not sure why so many people think Nolan was going for a realistic film with the Batman franchise, because that's not the case. The tumbler jumping across rooftops? Bruce Wayne not ripping his his arm off when he saves Ras Al Ghul? Some sci fi device that vaporizes the water supply? These are not realistic plot elements. Granted, Nolan takes the time to explain how and how and why things work in the Batman universe (which elevates his movie above the others) but they're still not realistic. So Rickey's thinking this image is legit, or at the very least, a screen test. Looks pretty awesome too--that version of Two Face is straight out of "The Long Halloween."

The fact that this is still here means it's not the final look
by performingmonkey
You know it.
-
Gotta disagree with you there dude. The promo team for TDK seems to have no problems putting potentially huge spoilers in their trailer. Them not demmanding that this be taken down is par for the course. It's ballsy on their part. Maybe they know how fantastic a movie is and don't care about spoilers? Who knows...
-
It's a fucking shame that people are saying the movie is marketed towards adults, when I just came from Wal-Mart, and there is a whole fucking aisle of toys there with direct movie tie-ins.
I know some of you basement-dwelling fanboys will go buy some of the TDK toys, but most of them will wind up in the hands of those under 10 years old, and that is exactly who this movie is being MARKETED to. Nolan doesn't have a whole lot to do with marketing, he was just told to make the movie. -
Geez. You've known 2-face was going to be in this for like 2 years now. They've said forever that he was going to be partially CGI. Somebody bitched that they couldn't do this look with a prosthetic...Obviosuly they'll use CGI. This is OBVIOUSLY photoshop, how elese would they make it? It's probably real production art- a mock-up. And it looks FUCKING AWESOME. How can you sit and say it looks like a cartoon? Looks like he got half his face fucking grilled right off to me. And as for the whole realism/non-realism arguments? IT'S BATMAN you FUCKS. BATMAN can be REALISTIC, but BATMAN is NOT REAL. Jesus you pricks are finicky! Go watch Ghost Rider again, fags.
-
In the Pirate movies was also done CG.
Just thought I'd point that out incase I missed it up the chain here. -

If the disputed image that AICN posted were real, I'm positive that WB Legal would have had it removed by now. It would be stolen and I'm certain that WB would frown on that, no? :-)

by wowsah156
Joel get over it you :fucked up on Batman & Robin . Just accept it. And move on now please. Most of the characters in Batman (including Bats) are horror motifs. So it goes to show that 2Face will be horrifying in his manner and appearance. Stop bitching and leave Batman to the grown ups please. Go and watch some Fantastic four or something Marvel.
-
I'm sure all true geekoids will be so pissed with this. Stick to the original sources man! Stop inventing characters - Two-Face... more like Two-Shits! Possible casting for sequel:
Batman: The Revenge
Batman - Jason Stratham
Robin - Matt Damon
Alfred - An Unknown character actor
Comisionaire Gordon - Jim Dale
Joker - Jim Carey (ofcourse!)
Riddler - CGI
Penguin - Norm From Cheers
Aunt Harriett - Angela Lansbury
King Tutt - Dan Shanks
Red Skull - Charlton Heston
I see this as a three film arc for all the family (nana included!). Excelsios! -
At no point will it ever be necessary for you to need to explain anything to Rickey. Read Rickey's original post again a bit closer you jackass, because you just posted the same exact thing Rickey did. No, its not a totally realistic interpretation of Batman, just much moreso compared to the Burton and Schumacher versions. Nolan is a utilitarian. He likes explaining WHY things NEED to work a certain way in the Batman universe. But Nolan's explanation of HOW things ACTUALLY work, well, that's not as realistic (tumbler jumping across rooftops, etc). And that's totally understandable because we want to see an entertaining Batman movie goddamnit. See what Rickey's getting at? Thanks for the half-cocked venemous fanboy post however, it was cute.
-
Will Rickey continue referring to himself in the third person like Jimmy from that one episode of Seinfeld? Will Danny ever read another post by Rickey? Tune in tomorrow, same Bat-Time, same Bat-Channel!
-
Rickey's dead to you? That stings.
...Because as a rule, Rickey takes everything seriously from a guy named "DANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD". -
I guess we'll know who's right and who isn't on July 18...'til then, this is all speculation.
-
Now that that's been settled, I find it funny that some people on this TB say the concept art is too much, yet on another TB are bitching about T-4 being PG-13. Yes the same people. Make up your mind.
-
What a ridiculous debate. First, I've seen posts in the TDK talkbacks about whether TDK will be R or PG-13. How dumb can you get? Despite the dark tone, an R-rated Batman movie simply is not in the studio's interests. I also saw posts debating whether this film's box office will suffer because parents won't take their kids to go see it. Regardless of whether you would or would not personally take your child to see this movie, plenty of people will. If my moviegoing experiences have taught me anything, it's that people don't really care about the content of a movie if it'll just stop their kids begging and pleading to go see it, especially if it's a comic book movie. And why should they care? Not like any kids are going to be scarred for life for having seen The Dark Knight at too young an age. Are they going to have nightmares? Maybe, so what? Who doesn't have nightmares? We're talking about a movie for godssake. Anyone ever hear of a single case where someone has suffered psychological trauma for having seen a scary movie at an early age. I watched the chestburster scene from Alien when I was only 7. It scared the shit out of me, but am I suffering for it today, or even the next day after I saw it. Kids are tough. The movie will be PG-13, plenty of kids are going to see it, it'll make a shitload of money, and I doubt anyone on the planet will be worse off for it.

I feel so bad for Harvey. If he got something in his eye, he couldn't even blink it away. He could only weep...
-
I remember when Tim Burton's Original Batman was coming out there was an outcry to make that R. And there really was no justification behind it except the idea that comic book characters shouldn't be dark and closer to real life.
-
This is concept art... but you gotta admit even this looks better than Tommy Lee Jones' pink, plastic, straight line down the face split. I like seeing through to the teeth... it definitely is paying homage to Long Halloween's version of Two Face. I'll have to wait to see it in live action, but I do like what I'm seeing here... so long as his jaw doesn't unhinge and blow locusts out.
-
I'm sure your "movie going experience" means more than the experience of a parent with their INDIVIDUAL child.
The problem is that parents don't see parenting as something that can be tough, and they don't stand up to their kids. They would rather give in to shut them up for 5 minutes, without thinking about the consequences down the road.
My son (8 yrs old in august) is no longer allowed to be at his best friend's house, because his friend's parents let him have all of the Grand Theft Auto games, and allow him to play them. My son is physically and metally tough for his age, but not because I allow him to be exposed to that kind of garbage, but because I show him that there are things out there for kids, and things out there for adults. It's a constant struggle, but it's one people should think about before they reproduce. I am not saying that TDK is too intense for any particular child, that has to be decided on a case-by-case basis, but your attitude of ingratiating kids and not worrying about the consequences is not that well thought out. -
Part of me hopes they'll actually tone this down a little bit... it's pretty extreme for Nolan. I'm certainly intrigued though.
-
Yeah, god forbid someone rationalize why they enjoyed a movie. Because, you know, explaining things is a lot harder than saying "kaboom! the movie rocked!!!" But that's cool man, I guess somebody's gotta keep Michael Bay in business. It might as well be you, right?

Damn. Excellent dental patient as long as he pays (and shows up for his appointment).
-
The quality of this picture is too crappy for it to be real. From what Eckhart said in his interview, they are using latest technology to get the face right, so I am guessing they are using a little CGI... especially for the mouth and eye. Also if you look at the leaked toy, the scars are more uneven, and this looks like it is perfectly down the middle... not as clean as in the comics, but its pretty symetrical. I have to say though that this is the best of the fakes so far.
-
please be real . i hope anyone who hopes this is fake gets butt raped for all eternity
-
Maybe this was an early production test that got leaked out then. So its probably very close to what it will be like.

You guys are nuts!!! Batman is about having fun - kicking back and watching him 'BASH!!!" the Joker or 'ZOKKK!' Ice Man. Exelsias!

WB would have removed it hours ago.

This isn't SOOOO gruesome that they would earn an R-Rating. The Mummy is a perfect example of how much anatomy can be shown before an R-rating is earned.

It's called conceptual art!

looks cool, but it also looks like that first Joker pic - you remember, the one with Heath supposedly holding a colour test card? that was shown to be a fake in the end. if Dent looks a bit like this in the film then nice one, but AICN has not become THAT shit that WB would let them leave it up for 12+ hours, surely?
-
You are off base as to my intentions and the type of person I am. I'm hardly that ignorant or naive, and certainly do not encourage ingratiating children. You're reading too much into what I've said. I did say "Regardless of whether you would or would not personally take your child to see this movie, plenty of people will." That's really the only point I wanted to make - the fact that kids will see this movie regardless of the rating or the content. No one is being criticized in my post except the talkbackers that believe this movie will actually get an R rating.
-
"Photoshopped" Photoshop is a damn computer program.... not an action. It's called doctoring. Or just Digital enhancement. CGI? NOT FUCKING PHOTOSHOPPED.
"Hey guys, I just Microsoft Worded my term paper!"
"Hey guys, I just Avid Expressed my really awesome home video!"
"Hey guys, I just Protoolsed a new album!" -
I simply meant Nolan's version of Batman... nothing pretentious. Sorry I offended. You faggot.
-
its real! that makes me so happy
-
Pic finally got removed... and only a few hours short of a full day.
-
I thought it looked real before ... but now I'm sure it IS real.
Thanks, WB! -
I enjoy how you go out of your way to insure that you're not pretentious.. then you say "Sorry I offended. You faggot." hahahaha you're a dick head!
-
they need attention cause its here in these message boards is the only place they get attention and acknowledged , even if its bad, they NEED it to feel part of this world , don't give them it
-
Haha, that's right!
-
HAHA so good! i love it!
-
look at your screen name.... now think if Nolan would actually take you seriously. now think if anyone else would take you seriously.... here is the answer... NO
-
You don't want DANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD coming after your daughter. I can't even type that without laughing.
-
You couldn't come up with someone more relevant who's dickblood you'd rather be?
-
We still have the picture up here pending a cease and desist...
-
HAHA! Fucking A!

Check it out while you still can. -
and thanks for making my point you shit eating testicle wart. When this movie tanks are you going to leap off a building because your self-esteem is tied up in some lisping douche bag in a shitty costume or will you just sit in a pile of your own fecal matter and cry? I realize you've got your head buried in Nolans asshole and have been living off of nothing but his shit for the last two years but it's time to face reality fuckwad.
-
Will you be saying the same shit when this fucker under performs ala that Silver Surfer shitfest? Ninja Mazes idiotic microwaves and a lisping hero will only carry you so far.
-
Surprised Underoos hasn't hopped in and had his say beyond his first post up there....
-
Is his lisp THAT noticeable? REALLY? If that's all you focused on then no wonder you missed why the filck rocked.
-
I'm not sure why everyone who likes Nolan's Batman either has their "head up Nolan's ass" or is "sucking Nolan's dick". Guess what, asshole, I liked Burton's Batman also... does that mean my head's up his ass too? I also like the Indiana Jones movies... so I guess that means I've got my head up Spielberg's ass, and/or sucking his dick. Can't we have a civilized conversation? You faggot.
-
I have to give you props for creativity on that one, btw. Very nice.
-
I see.
-
I can tell by some of the pixels and seeing quite a few shops in my day.
-
... that image you linked to is fake, fake, fake. It's a still from THE BLACK DAHLIA, and it's fan art that has been floating around for a year now. Absolutely not related to the film.
-
....one person can do about a single movie. It was fun while it lasted and I really enjoyed all of the threats and berating directed at me for not liking BB, but hey, all good things come to an end. This doesn't mean I still won't hop in and give a "Batman Begins Sucks" hoot for old times sake, but I thik I'll just move along for right now. Oh yea before I head to another post....FUCK BATMAN BEGINS AND TDK. YOU ARE ALL TARDS. Cool...That fealt good. See ya in the next TB. PEACE!!
-
Quote: "...because your self-esteem is tied up in some lisping douche bag in a shitty costume..."Uh, sorry. Whose self esteem appears to be measured by solely ragging on all things Bale/Nolan/BB?! Could you be anymore pathetic in this regard?Quote: "I realize you've got your head buried in Nolans asshole and have been living off of nothing but his shit for the last two years but it's time to face reality fuckwad."What does this even mean?! Are you talking about the delusional, self-important fantasy world inhabited by your oh-so-lonely self?It appears that this DARK KNIGHT business has really got you scratching in those Batman pajamas of yours. Which is funny because it puts you in contention for biggest Batman Talkback Douchebag...right alongside I am Batman.Congratulations, you big girl.
-
Being based on The Killing Joke, in which Joker shows Commissioner Gordon how crazy someone can go after a really bad day, DK has essentially subbed Dent for Gordon. It begins with Dent's fight against the mobsters, in which the Joker blames the Batman for. The Joker wants Batman dead, but at the same time, wants to drive that goody-two-shoes DA Dent crazy.
The Joker crashes Dent's engagemnt party to Rachel, in this EPIC scene, and ends up launching her through a window to her death. This is coparable to Barbara Gordon's rape in TKJ. The next major thing that happens is the actual attack on Dent, which leaves him scarred to hell. It's not going to be an acid burn, but instead just a straight flame-burn. The scene in the trailer is gasoline, not acid.
We've all seen the pic of the Joker in the Nurse's outfit in the Hospital. He's there because that is where Harvey was taken for his burns. Its in this scene where Joker delivers the freak like me line, and we see the aforepictured concept burns.
The rest is on you guys. -
I couldn't agree more. Black Dahlia was a fucking travesty.
-
You can't leave us now. I was just starting to enjoy your posts. You've become like a comfortable pair of old shoes, but their too dirty for you to wear out. Besides we all feel better when when we beat up you. We kinda need you around.
-
I think I just boo hooed a little bit....just a little bit. *sniff*
-
What country are you from? Are you using google translator? ... example:"Besides we all feel better when when we beat up you." Anyway, thanks man. I luv ya. xo xo
-
If Batman leaps out a window and somehow speeds himself up and catches Rachel midair... I will officially owe you an apology, Danny. I hope Nolan's better than that. It worked in the first Batman... but then I saw it twenty more times in every other superhero movie (and in more Batman movies).
-
In the killing joke, the Joker raped Barbara Gordon and elft her paralyzed if memory serves. The joker killing Rachel is the Dark Knight's mirror of the book. Yes, she dies. No more bulldog face.
-
It's taken you 3 days to come up with something even close to a relevant response to anything that's been said anywhere. I applaud you!!!! It still needs a LOT of work but you're trying, and that's what counts. Now if you could just come up with something when being addressed instead of swooping in and protecting your ass pirate buddy there you'll be in the game champ! Tell me though, did you dress yourself in your Batman underoos before you typed that or what?
-
Yes, because your responses are the epitome of relevance.
-
This fucking guy hasn't done anything worth a shit since Empire of the Sun except spit and lisp his way through multiple overrated movies. Looks like another Reign of Fire shit fest.
-
You seem to keep coming back for more so they're obviously relevant to you. Either that or you're like a girl that enjoys her bf beating her so you impulsively can't quit me.
-
But none of these admittedly hilarious insults do anything to support your opinion about Batman Begins.
-
Kinda looks like it but sickeningly slick! Dunno how they pulled off a PG-13 rating with this shit but hey, it worked for Lucas. And maybe since Terminator 4 & GI Joe are going to be steaming piles of shit, we'll get lucky and have an UNRATED TDK on DVD....maybe....
-
Paul Walker? Ashton Kutcher? I'm not someone that has their DVR filled with The Hills and Laguna Beach...
I'm just saying, Glover hasn't been a name since the last time he said '..too old for this shit.'
Did he even get his name on the Saw poster?
-
The real question is, are Sugar & Spice going to return with Two-Face?
-
Yeah they'll be providing the missing Batsuit nipples, haha
-
other geeks getting angry over his trolling. It's the only thing that turns him on anymore. He cries himself to sleep at night.
-

-
it probably only stayed here so long because of theinitially warm reception and, for a moment, serious discussion of TDK before like usual this degenerated into a mother insulting cock fight.
-
Because his constant mentioning of men sucking other mens dicks is the only thing he apparently has on his mind, as if to desperately hope for a reply where someone will agree with the cock-sucking and thus, it'll be a GOOOOOD night for this warrior who likes to write poems.
-
Run!
-
if you watch BB again, look at the train right before it drops off the track. something man sized and black 'jumps' from the front of a train car and toward some of the monorail scaffolding.
like, a knee tucked, ninja leap.could Ras have leapt to safety and climbed down? anyway, i don't care to see him again in a movie, but i caught it on tv this week and noticed that bit. -
THAT is additional reason why Iron Man was boosted to stardom. Sure, some of these comics films have built-in audiences. (hey I will be there for TDK anyway), but Iron Man is very fresh and new and out of left field. A new feeling and something different for a goddamn change. That energizes the casual non-comic-fan movie-goer. See trailers, that looks badass, c'mon let's go. Not everyone has time to be a comics fan. If something looks good, it's gonna attract. THAT is why "obscure/lesser known characters" have a chance at the BO. Do a good job, advertise, they will come. And I am not biased. I don't play this favorites BS that the fanboys do. I support'em all.
-
WTF WAS THAT?
-
Actually, he meant he was tired of bitching about Batman Begins. You must be new here, Underoos is that flick's biggest detractor.
-
A really shitty fan film. Look it up on YouTube if you dare.
-
your non-conducive rants are very entertaining. ... for a 10-year-old.
-
Wow, what a piss poor deflection. You even suck at trolling. HA!If you were half as good at coming up with something of substance as you are at making shit up, you might not appear to be such a big, sad, whining, Batman pajamas wearing girl. I think you need to try harder. In the meantime, keep flailing.
-
makin me hungry for a man size happy meal
-
Anyone?....
-
"Read my lips."
"They're pretty fucked up." -
I am actually not new here. But I chose to capture that subject and expand on it, regardless of Underoos' misgivings. But thanks.

I think the practical makeup/cgi debate is a little misguided. CGI should ONLY be used when it is necessary (Like Batman Begins) not for every damn element (Like Star Wars Episode 1-3). While having an over abundance of CGI effects on a persons face (like in the Mummy) look fake, its cuz there is no blending element. If this is a combination of prosthetics and makeup, and then CGI to enhance the parts that can't be done (Removing the ear, messing with the eye and exposing the teeth) it will look great. CGI, in moderation, is amazing. When something can be done practically it should be (Like the First Matrix vs the sequels)
-
I hate thee to the depth and breadth and height my soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
for the ends of Being and ideal Grace. I hate thee to the level of every day's most quiet need; by sun and candle-light. I hate thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I hate thee purely, as they turn from Praise. I hate thee with the passion put to use in my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith I hate thee with a love I seemed to lose with my lost saints,--I hate thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life!--and, if God choose,
I shall but hate thee Batman Begins after death. Underoos Hero 2008. -

Why can't I quit you?
-
You ignorant cunt, you are obviously obsessed with me and what I write or do not write. Look, I know you wanna double up with MattmanReturns and try to jump me but you two fucksticks are laying it on a little thick for my liking. Perhaps you should go back and brush up on your David Deangelo before trying to hump my leg next time ya fuckin' twat.
-
One more zinger you just racked up there. Fantastic Ace, that's just tops!!! Perhaps you're hoping for a threesome with BurgerKing and MattmanReturns? They sound just like your type, goat fucking redneck mouth breathing cunts. Remember little buddy, tuck the hind legs into your boots!!!
-
you are a gentleman.
-
My two little buddies, you fucknuts quit playing in the HD trailer section. Did things get to rough for you?
-
Quack quack!
-
Lemme get some popcorn.
-
Quack!
-
Robin: "I wish I knew how to quit you."
Batman: "Hand me the Batseline and bend over sweetness." -
I even got the special edition in a box that looks like a diary. How come Guy Pearce doesn't get more work?
-
Doesn't get enough love.
-
DannyGloversdickblood = fucking idiot
-
I was wrong... so sue me. Sorry I'm not as well-versed in Batman comics as you and didn't have the time to research it. Do you call everyone that's wrong about something retarded? I don't post all that much and it's because of guys like you that need to insult people just so they can feel better about themselves.
-
whats the use in removing it now? itll be on every fan's myspace,facebook,etc.. i mean how people saved that pic to their hard drive??..Im glad i saved it in time...tee
-
Memento is a great movie
-
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahafuck everyone who likes iron man! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
-
Bastard Son of Superman is my current favourite poster. Especially now he's got Bastard son of bastard son of Superman as well. I've seen you're dad BSOBSOS- He's working in a thai sweatshop, and accidentally sewed his fingers together. And as for your dad BSOS, He's furiously masturbating in the bushes outside your mother's bedroom window. I'd leave him to it if I were you.
-
Can it be?...
Can Underoos Hero be Aint it Cool flame poster and noted BB hater MovieMack? the dude who seemingly disappeared after BB became more successful both critically and commercially than he'd hoped? -
not that I give a fuck.. I just love speculation, you throw it out there and watch it get taken, like watching seagulls fight over chips.Concept photo looks great, I am a little skeptical about it having CGI highlights etc. don't think its necessary. I'm totally sure Chris Nolan gives afuck too.. besides. what the fuck do I know, its your film man.
-
Nah, moviemack returned to us under the hilarious moniker, "I am Batman". The name really says it all (kind of like Underoos Hero...). But the good news is we've all gained a new favorite Batman whipping boy in poeticdouchebagII. Ya gotta love it.
-
turns up every now and again to moan about realism. Much like underoos, but Underoos is far better at expressing himself.
-
Memento was excellent.
-
I haven't seen Memento. I'll check it out. Thanks!
-
I see you've been sniffing other peoples shit at McDonalds again! Wow what a doozy tiger, hell poeticdouchebagII dear god how will I ever recover shit nugget. The blows just keep on coming from the cunty of the year!! At least Mattman had some level of shame and shut the fuck up. But you anal wart, you truly can't quit me.
-
Great movie with a brilliant ending. I'm sure Nolan will do a fantastic job with Batman Begins.
-
Quote: "sniffing other peoples shit at McDonalds again!"Huh? Whazzat?! Make sense, po. It's the least you can attempt if all you're going to do is spout childish vulgarities.And why would I quit someone who is so easy to make a fool of?Keep taking the Nolan-Hate Cock up the ass. We all love watching you squeal!
-
Fantastic performance by Guy Pearce. He's definitely one of the better actors working today. I'll be interested to see just exactly what role he supposed to play in the film adaptation of THE ROAD.
-
Sadly there are pieces of shit that know nothing who constantly whine and bitch about something. Anyway BSB glad you saw Memento and I am happy to see that movie get some love on here.
-
holy crap i need to look into that. didn't know they were even casting yet.
even though the father is supposed to be older than average, it'll probably be him.
no many other characters to choose from. a marauder? doubt it. the guy at the end? probably not.
some guy chained in the old house? all too small bits. -
ah i see now.
-
-from what i can tell, is the guy near the end that they leave naked after he stole their stuff..
holy jeez i wanna see that flick now. looks like there are already too many miltants listed though. please don't make this a freaking summer action movie. -
My wife's old bosses bought the rights to that and are producing it. They both are assholes, though. Sad.
-
i haven't found anything, but this joke from 2007

Memento sounds intriguing. I just put it in my queue. Thanks!

oh fuck, thats what i get for not clicking on the comments
by ironic_name
its just his career that died
-
A little confusing...Is it that you "JUST FINISHED WATCHING MEMENTO" or "Memento sounds intriguing. I just put it in my queue."?
-
Being a big Cormac McCarthy fan, I'm definitely looking forward to seeing THE ROAD on the big screen. I wouldn't be too concerned with them turning it into some sort of "summer action movie". It's being directed by John Hillcoat who also directed THE PROPOSITION (a very dark, moody Aussie western that is very much in the vein of McCarthy's BLOOD MERIDIAN). So, I think we'll definitely get something intriguing and, hopefully, faithful to the book (much like the Coens and NCFOM).The casting of Viggo as the father is a damn good start. And I imagine that Pearce will be the character you mentioned.
-
comes out two days before my birthday!
(but oh no, will a nov 26 release of such a grim movie doom it like the MIST?)
as for PACINO, probably the best work he's done in ten years was INSOMNIA, Jett! a nolan flick. and people who run entertainment websites (COUGH B.O.F.- cough) shouldn't joke around with death rumors! ;) -
I'm just fucking around mimicking the short term memory loss thing in Memento .. hehe
How's your flame war going? Lemme know when you need reinforcements or want to call in an aerial assault. -
But yeah I am confused as well.
-
memento is the cool.
-
Well, at least there wil be one good thing in this movie.
-
fight about Two_face! Do it! Do it some more! tardos
-
Yeah, he's a little old, but Malachi Throne could pull a reprise of his False Face role from 1966 in the next flick. Have him team up with the Archer and the Minstrel for a bid to take over Gotham City. He can disguise himself as all of the rogues gallery at various stages of the film so no one will be left out. And at the end of the film Bale should abandon the Tumbler for the George Bariss Batmobile, and trade in his body armor for a set of tights modeled on Adam West's outfit in the show. Add Commodore Schmidlap to the cast, and perfection will be achieved.
-
Ah, I see. I'm not sure where you're going with this. Oh, I get it.As for the "flame war", I'm not sure it's reached the full-on stage yet. Po' just has a crush on me and that's why he keeps trying to tickle my balls.And anytime you want to take po'warriorII's silly antics to task, feel free to drop all appropriate ordinance. He's certainly becoming an equal opportunity target.

I clicked that at work, dumbass.
