The Dark Knight -- The First Five Minutes

The Dark Knight -- The First Five Minutes

Watch the first five minutes of the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight, which has resurfaced at OrlandoSentinel.com. (It was posted back in December also.)

The footage features a few men disguised with clown masks, attempting a bank heist. William Fichtner is featured in the clip as one of the bank employees. Heath Ledger is also in this clip as The Joker.

With less than three weeks remaining to The Dark Knight, Fandango, is already selling out dozens of showtimes. The film is outpacing Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Iron Man and Sex and the City as Fandango’s fastest ticket-seller of this summer.

“We are currently seeing a surge in advance ticket sales for The Dark Knight,” says Ted Hong, vice president of marketing for Fandango. “It makes sense that there’s a rush for tickets, as it’s the perfect movie to see on the big screen, as supported by our strong ticket sales for both traditional screens and the larger format in IMAX. We believe the film is appealing to both comic book and action fans, as well as casual moviegoers.”

wow, seems so cool. I heard my friends on “casualpal.c om” talked about this too. I just can’t wait to see it.

This movie looks fantastic. I honestly think it may be the best comic turned to movie so far. Christian Bale is a fantastic actor(plus incredibly easy on the eyes) and Oscar buzz is already surrounding Ledger who is beyond terrifying(he’ll definitely win).

I wasn’t impressed by the trailer. It just strikes me as a creepy clown with bad make up. Brings back bad memories of the IT movie; except the clown had better make up.. That’s no knock on ledger, just my opinion. A lot of people liked him and he’s dead, never to make another movie; wouldn’t be surprised if he got the Oscar. It’s not all talent that gets people the golden statute. Halle Berry certainly didn’t deserve it for Monster’s Ball. Ledger was better in that than she was.

EVERYONE KNOWS THAT WHEN HEATH LEDGER DIED HE WAS FAMOUS FOR HIS BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN CHARACTER .. THAT IS ALL THEY WOULD TAKE ABOUT WORLD WIDE… WHY DIDN’T CHRIS NOLAN DEDICATE THIS MOVIE TO THE BELOVED HEATH THE DRUG ADDICT…THE JOKER … THAN HIS FAMILY CAN SHOW UP AND BE PROUD OF THEIR SON…. WHY HAVE BATMAN AT ALL ..
THE PRESS IS ALL HEATH.. STOP PUBLICITY FOR THE HEATH LEDGER MOVIE … WHY HAVE THE CAST OUT THEIR WHEN THE
FIRST ONE WAS A KATIE HOLMES MOVIE.. COMING JAKE’S SISTER TO KATE…PLEASE ..

#13 .. wtf? the dark knight IS being dedicated to heath, there’s a memoriam at the end of them. and by calling him a “drug addict” shows you haven’t cared to actually read about him, the past few years of his life, and his problems. so don’t judge when you don’t know.

This is so far the BEST batman movie I’ve ever seen. I have long anticipated the movie premiere after seeing this movie’s trailer on TV. And after the long wait, it finally paid off. I wish there will be more after this. There’s more on http://downloadmoviesfree.net :) RIP Heath..
