Exclusive: The Joker Intro For TDK

By Kellvin Chavez on November 6, 2007

This evening, here in NYC, I had dinner with an executive high up on the Warner Bros. food chain in which we spoke about the on going WGA strike and our conversation changed to one of the most anticipated films coming out next summer.

The following is what he had to say on the introduction of THE JOKER in the upcoming THE DARK KNIGHT!
 
WARNING!  MAJOR PLOT SPOILER AHEAD!  READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!
 
The Dark Knight begins with the Joker robbing a huge bank (we’ve seen photos of this everywhere).  The bank is where the mob and all the gangs in Gotham keep all of their money.  The Joker takes this money and holds it “ransom”.  The Joker then says to the mob and the gangs of Gotham, “If you help me take down Batman, you’ll get your money back.  If not, I’m going to burn it all.”  This is how the Joker assembles his army to take down Batman.


I think it's pretty damn good idea to introduce him like that.
