Here Come The Dark Knight Spoilers!
Slashfilm's got the goods.
by Jeff Giles | August 09, 2007
Discuss Article
You want Dark Knight rumors? We've got Dark Knight rumors! Well, technically, Slashfilm has them -- but why split hairs when we can be rolling around in all the spoilery goodness, right?

According to Slashfilm's Peter Sciretta, he was just sitting around, minding his own business, when what should appear but an e-mail from one of his trusted sources, offering all sorts of info on the Batman Begins sequel:

I don't even know if they are legit, but this guy has been dead on in the past. But for now the following information must be taken as rumor. There is some pretty major stuff being revealed: Deaths, Transformations, and stuff that I've never even seen mentioned on the internet forums. After some deliberation, I've decided that information should be free.

There you have it: Peter Sciretta, the Stewart Brand of film scoopers.

(Note: We realize that most of you have no idea who Stewart Brand is, which is all the more reason for mentioning him here; you're now forced to choose between Googling Brand's name or proceeding directly to the rumors/spoilers at the below link, thereby possibly ruining The Dark Knight for yourself well in advance of its release. You're welcome.)

There is no way in hell I'm clicking on that link. As excited as I am for this movie, I'd like to have Nolan's twists actually affect me instead of knowing them all beforehand.

Nobody tell me what they are, but please just say if they suck or not.

They sound very Chris Nolan with a little Christian Bale badassness to them. I would consider these good rumors.

The spoilers don't reveal all that much. It sounds cool though.

Really though, its pretty safe to read them. Doesn't SAY who's going to die it just says an encounter "doesn't end well" with said person. And the spoiler is a twist but more like a sidestory twist and not anything I was too excited over. Still cool though.

Turns out there is no Joker and Batman himself has been committing murders, making himself think he's on a mission to avenge his wife's death.

Oh wait, that was another of Chris Nolan's movies.

(Sorry to anyone who hasn't seen Memento... but if you haven't by now, its your fault)

Okay so basically joker kidnaps racheal and she tells him that bruce is batman, but then somehow bruce and batman are seen together at the same time and that makes joker think she lied to him with the results not being good.

There is a fake batman running around making the cops think that he is on their side.

Look, someone is playing with your damn minds. Spoilers for the J.J. Abrams project and Batman on the same day, think about it people.

the idea of the article is that if you want to read the spoiler you should click on the link first

if people post the spoilers of the comments people will see them even if they don-t want to

I might have to start avoiding all boards now. Thanks a lot Rotten Tomatoes and Latino Review and everyone else posting these spoilers. Ah well, guess I'll have to try and find something else to go crazy over until December.

Memento is a great movie, a must see. My jaw dropped to the ground with that huge twist.

No Jeremy it doesn't. But the word is that the next trailer will come out. I'm hoping it will come out before then, but that's prolly not gonna happen.

yeah, those spoilers aren't much to lose sleep over. I mean, they'll be pivotal to the story, but there's no hint as to how the film'l be laid out or what happens at the end.

So amazed that they got Brandon Routh to don his super suit in TDK tho, wonder what the ream'll be for..
