from Batman-on-Film.com: possible scoop, possible rumor about the trailer that WB is putting together:
>> Thursday, June 17, 2004, 5:34 AM CST: This is from a new scooper. BOF can't vouch for the validity of the source and his report. However, based on my experience, it looks to be legit. "Unknown Dude" says that he has seen the BATMAN BEGINS trailer. I know how, but I can't reveal that. But I can give you his description of it....
1. Black screen, The WB logo fades in. It stays on screen for a few seconds, A little longer than normal, Then it fades to black. The black screen also stays for a few moments, then quietly some of the theme starts to play (I'm not too certain but I think it's the same theme they've used in the past for Batman trailers, But I defiantly know it was music from the Burton film). After about 10-15 seconds of darkness a complete white frame fades in, Then it looks blurry, Then we start to see shades of blue, Then it totally fades in. It's a very wide shot of a snowbound mass of land, with a small figure walking towards the camera (I kept thinking what the hell is this? They just must be using Batman music). Then it was an upclose shot of Bale, He falls into the snow. He starts coughing.
There is some voice-overs of different people, mainly Neeson. There are flashes of the rest of the cast, Bale talking about his fears, what drives him. Then We see a man slip on a strange looking gas mask. Very German/Nazi WW2 looking for the design of the mask. Probably the Scarecrow. A black screen, Batman standing on top of a building then jumping falling down towards the screen. Flashes of a fast moving train, What looks like a huge black tank and a helicopter and police cars. A few more flashes of some fast paced car action.
There are a few shots of the city (Which look very dark and pretty rough, Very unfinished). Then Bale's eyes appear over the skyline, Which fades into Bale's face in the Batman mask.
Then a black screen and the new bat logo fades in, kinda old school with a rusted finish. It slowly moves towards the screen with a bass dropping drone. The credits fade in "Next Summer - it Begins."
BOF disclaimer: take this with a grain of salt, but this description sounds cool.
------------------------------------
The site also points out that Joe Chill will kill Bruce's parents, who have just been cast, as has the young Bruce who witnesses their murder. Joe Chill will NOT become the Joker nor have any relation whatsoever to the Joker in this film. They just shot the murder of Bruce's parents scene last week. The site Batman-on-film.com has a pic of the actor who plays Joe Chill - he looks suitably scruffy. |
