    Update 1:
    IESB.net (click) posted 12 clips from the film, though they were taken down within a matter of hours, thanks to the good folks at WB.

    However, they are available at Youtube (click) (that's "yoo-toob" folks). Act quick.

    Update 2:
    The film was recently screened for press in New York. According to Peter Traver's (Rolling Stone magazine) review (click), the film is 2 hrs and 32 mins -- 12 mins longer than its predecessor, and the longest Batman film yet. He rated it 3 1/2 out of 4 stars.

    According to David Letterman (click), "everyone dies at the end" :)lol:).

    Update 3:
    A large spoiler from Latino Review is floating around, and appears to be correct, based on the clips and photos I've already seen. It contains the major plot elements, as well as the film's finale, though without exactly telling how/where the info is revealed in the film. For those who want to know, you'll have to find the link yourself. ;-)

    Update 4:
    I was snooping around for the soundtrack, when I found a clip (looks unauthorized) that features Two Face! It has been reported that Two Face only appears in one scene, and this may be it, so click here ONLY if you wish to spoil yourself.

    Update 5:
    A foreign channel has screened a 1 minute clip from the film, featuring the Joker crashing a dinner party. If you've seen the trailer, then you have already seen part of this.
    "We are tonight's entertainment" (click)

    Update 6:
    The soundtrack has leaked, and is available on YouTube (and elsewhere). Good luck getting me to link to it. ;-)

    Update 7:
    More footage is getting out there now, including several new clips courtesy of Yahoo! (click). I chose not to look at most of them, but there is a new action sequence available, along with another Joker clip.

    HBO's First Look (essential behind the scenes) has made its way to YouTube, and is available in two parts (click here for part 1) (click here for part 2). WARNING: This stuff looks very spoiler-ish, and contains a lot of stuff we haven't seen before. View at your own discretion.

    Last, but not least, is the newest TV spot (click), which features some of Joker's dialogue from the interrogation scene. Not much is revealed, but a major theme of the film is hinted at.

    Holy shit. Holy shit. Holy shit! :eek:

    *goosebumps*

    On a side note: These clips/tv spots/trailers need to stop being posted on youtube, lol. They're giving away the movie and I cannot help myself but to watch anyway. :lol:

    I'm guessing you haven't seen the first 6 minutes, then?

    It was released in December (?) as the "prologue," but I'm pretty sure it's the beginning of the film. Nolan later said so.

    Wow, I am wondering how I missed that, lol. I'll search for it later if it's still floating around the interwebz.

    It's constantly being upped and deleted from YouTube lol.

    Edit: this score is so much better than Begins.

    Yeah, it's been around for a while.

    I really want to know what the "card trick" is about. I keep hearing it's a really funny moment from Heath, that isn't quite PG-13... lol.

    *spoiler* I don't know if there is any fact to this but I head that the joker shoves a pencil in someones head through their ear. Also about a scene where the Joker gets into a body bag and pretends that he is dead.

    Pretty much.

    Looks like it'll be miles ahead of "Batman Begins" anyway, at least. :)

    About Update 4. I think Two Face will have a pretty good role in the movie. I know that he isn't in just one scene. You can see that he is featured in the Trailer #2 and they have posted a special clip of Two Face at the bar scene. The question is when will he start making the appearance in the movie. Most say at the end but right now I'm thinking somewhere in the middleish. Can't wait though, already have my ticket!
