    Anyone found a link to a non-HD quicktime file? Seems kinda silly of them to only post HD versions.

    I liked this teaser. Sadly it is a bit plain. The Iron Man comic con footage blew my mind whereas this was just cool.

    I have to admit my doubts in Ledger have decreased the more I've heard and seen him as the Joker.

    Description of Footage Shown at Wizard Con:

    -- The Joker looks terrifying. There is footage of him in interrogation with a voice over from Gordon, they can't find whatever it is they are looking for on him, "All he had in his pockets was lint, and a knife."

    --There are explosions, shots of the batmobile, and what looks like a tube holding the bat costume rising from the floor.

    -- There is a shot of the Joker walking down and apparently enflamed city street, laughing and firing what looked like a tommy gun, but really could have been another automatic rifle.

    -- Bruce Wayne meets Harvey Dent for the first time,
    Dent: "The famous Bruce Wayne, Rachel has told me all about you!"
    Wayne: "I hope not."

    A lot of quick cuts, the batmobile exploding through a wall of flame, the joker holding Maggie Gyllenhal at knife point, and Batman kicking through the door in the interrogation room from the beginning of the clip, he lifts the Joker over his head and slams him on the table... HARD.

    AND THEN...

    A coin flips onto a counter next to a glass on a bar, the bartender starts to pour the shot before looking up, his response, "Jesus, Harvey, I thought you were dead!"
    A hand picks up the shot, and it is slammed off screen before Aaron Eckhart's voice answers, "Half."

    Heath Ledger as The Joker will be a legendary as Depp as Sparrow.

    That's a very tall order, then again just bringing the Joker on screen is a gigantic order. But it's not impossible and I put my faith in Nolan like the Pope does Jesus.

    The BB footage that was shown at the past Wizard World didn't make it online, so I don't know how much faith I put into this one getting online. The wait until December is too long for me! Especially after reading the description.

    HOLY SH***

    I get to laugh at you all now because I was there! The footage was amazing! So, going in, we didn't know who was going to be there. The Publisher and President of DC, Paul something, came out, and talked a little bit before introducing Gary Oldman, then Aaron Eckhart, and then Christian Bale, followed by David S. Goyer, Jonathan Nolan, and finally, Christopher Nolan.
    After talking a bit, they opened the floor for people who lined up to ask questions. I got in line, and the first thing I did was point at Bale and say "Awesome performance in the Newsies, man!" to which he laughed.I thne introduced myself as "Ryan T. Murphy, future colleague to all of you," and asked about the character of Rachel Dawes, why she was returning in the sequel, and if she would have a signifigant role, to which Chris Nolan replied that yes, she will have an important role in the film.

    After the questions were done, they played the footage, and I swear, my heart nearly shot out of my mouth. Guys, I honestly don't think the word "amazing" really covers it. This film, if possible, is going to make the firstone look like mulch.

    Jedi_Master_Conor, I don't know if you were there or just posted that from somewhere else, but man, that reminds me of a lot of stuff I couldn't recall because it all flashed by so fast.Let's see...The first thing I think we see is Bruce approaching hte Batmobile in a hanger, and then they show Harvey Dent greeting Bruce saying "Ah, the famous Bruce Wayne. Rachel's told me everything about you," to which Bruce replies "Oh, I certainly hope not." I remember Gordon going into Arkham to talk tot he Joker, and the Joker jumping out in a straight jacket. Other fottage of the Joker included him on the police station rooftop with his gang, smashing out the bat-signal with an axe. That summarya lso reminded me of the scene where he's holding a knife to Rachel's throat. And yes, there is a scene of Batman thrashing the Joker about like a rag doll. Then is that great scene where swe thee the back of a guy's head and pink mangled flsh hanging off his chin, with the guy at the other end of the atable saying "Dent. I thought you were dead," to which he replies "half" and takes a shot.

    Gosh, I wish I could remember every shot to tell you guys, but yeah, the Joker is going to be AMAZING. Heath looks great. I really remember the way his hair looked, long and greasy, hanging at his shoulders, which, along with other things, making him look much creepier than any other Joker to date. Before the footage, during the panel, Gary took a moment to say that Heath was going to completely blow us away. I daresay he was 100% right.

    Slimy!
