The Dark Knight approaches

heath ledger as the joker

Check out the Dark Knight teaser trailer at whysoserious.com.

On loading the page, you can view the trailer or look at a “police report” from a recent publicity stunt during the San Diego Comic-Con. Click Here for “police report“.

On that police report page there are several links to other things; galleries, clues used during the game and another “police report” talking about the “death” of the Joker.

I haven’t been following this much, but from the little that I’ve picked up, it looks like this version of the Joker will be much more dark and a bit more realistic than previous versions. Note that I have not read The Dark Knight graphic novels that these are allegedly based on. Supposedly, this version of the Joker was not thrown/fell/dropped into a vat of chemicals but instead has a huge scar that looks like he’s “smiling” (see pic above if somehow you missed it). I’m assuming the scar and the event that led to it took a huge emotional toll on an individual that was already screwed-up, thus creating “the Joker” that we know, for the most part. The makeup is just part of his new persona.

One of my new favorite shows, HBO’s Flight of the Conchords, had a funny song in it last night. The video below isn’t from the show, but it’s the same song. Very funny, especially if you are married or have been in a long-term relationship.

Jericho to return to TV and the web this summer

If you are a Jericho fan, like myself, and you got lost there towards the end of the season, don’t fret — CBS plans to play episodes 13-22 over the summer on Friday nights at 9pm starting on July 6th. Or… you can always do what I usually do and watch every episode of Jericho online.

Rumor has it that they will add even more web-exclusive content soon.
