What does everyone make of this "My hero"?

I know they are trying to be faithful to the Long Halloween but what positives does Joker see in this Two-Face, a vigilante in Nolan's words.

Sarcasm perhaps? The whole "white knight" viral comes to mind. To the people of Gotham, Dent is seen as a savior and hero just like Batman (only Dent does it through the law and not yet through vigilantism)

I love both the new trailer and the glimpse of Two-Face that we saw. This is going to be an awesome movie. grin

The first 2 episodes of Gotham tonight are up. This second one deals with profiling Bruce Wayne. Even has little snippets of interviews with Dent and Wayne. In two weeks they'll be another profile, this time on Gordon. Apparently Gordon is a familiar and popular figure in Gotham. thinking

I saw a new television spot where Batman tells the Joker to let Rachel go. Joker's response "Oh...poor choice of words" is perfect. I keep getting jazzed for this film every time I see something about it.

Those TV spots are dynamite! I especially like the last one.

AICN has posted what is supposedly the first review of The Dark Knight here.

As it is AICN, I would expect bad words somewhere on the page.

I like this quote from the AICN review: "It feels like Heat except Batman is Al
Pacino and The Joker is Robert De Niro and just like in that film we
have a great scene between Heath Ledger and Christian Bale across a
table."

I kind of doubt the authenticity of it but if it is true it sounds like a very positive review
