The Dark Knight Batman movie is one of the most anticipated films coming this summer. The movie hype has been the work of some clever marketing. WhySoSerious was the site that launched a game wide hunt for what most were hoping would be a sneak peek at the film. Several cities had specific instructions that led them on a goose chase. They were led to a raffle that left many people walking away with nothing but frustration. A select few did see the 2nd trailer for the next Batman film. Hence the leak.
Check it out now before Warner Brothers swoops in and removes it. Just in case it is removed here is another movie trailer in which I am in love with. I am a slut for Seth Rogan, and the summer film Pineapple Express looks like it is packed with hilarity. I am not a James Franco fan, but this might have redeeming qualities.
There is an uncensored version on the site mentioned on the trailer. It is worth taking a peek at.
Slowly everything from photos, trailers and even the first seven minutes of the Dark Knight film has been leaked to the net. Thank the blogger gods for cinematical teasers. And here we have some new photos that have made their way to the surface. (I threw in a few older ones to keep the flow.)
Maggie Gyllenhaal has taken the place of Kaite Holmes’ character in the last Batman film has assured us she won’t be reproducing Katie’s performance in the first installment.
“I think she’s a wonderful actress and I really admired the work that she did in the first Batman, but I don’t think it would have worked if I tried to imitate her. I think the only way to do it is to do it like myself.” And because Christopher Nolan is a classy director, there won’t be any winks or nods to the fact that Rachel Dawes is a new face. “They just (expect you to) suspend your disbelief. I’m Rachel Dawes now. I mean, how many Batmen have there been? Lots of them!”
I am not a huge comic fan, but I could have dealt with a new chic in the role of damsel in distress. I like my Batman a little bit slutty.

It isn’t the best quality, but it gives you a sneak peek into what is in store for the Batman fans out there. . I now understand the dark angle and find it a bit creepy. Being that I am not a huge fan of the original Batman movies, I have to say that the new films are much better. I dig that they aren’t as cartoon-ish.
The Dark Night movie leak is obviously spoilerish so watch at your own desire or you can wait until July 18th for the real thing.
Which celebrity hunk has an illegitimate baby out there?
A mysterious source revealed that either Christian Bale, Orlando Bloom, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, David Beckham, Ashton Kutcher or Justin Timberlake is the father of her baby. Her claim is that she is paid a large sum of cash to keep the paternity a secret.
This is one of those little rumors that bares little evidence and is more likely the crazy making of someone extremely bored. But I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night if I didn’t share the insane dribblings that come my way.
And we all thought Russell Crowe would be the one having hissy fits on the set of “3:10 to Yuma”. Turns out it was Christian Bale who was acting like a diva. While Russell often hosted barbecues for the cast and crew and was generally regarded as “a sweetheart”, Christian arrived on set by helicopter and did not speak to fellow castmates unless the script said so.
Well aren’t you special, Christian. Maybe he’s just really anti-phone-throwing, and was boycotting all things Russell Crowe. Or maybe he just thinks he’s all that and a bag of Doritos.
What others are saying:
Mollygood says, “Asked his opinion, the man Crowe bludgeoned in the face with a telephone said he still thinks Crowe’s worse.”
The latest Batman, Christian Bale, displayed his extreme dedication to the acting craft while filming the upcoming ‘Rescue Dawn’. Director Werner Herzog demanded real maggots for the scene in which Bale eats a bowl of the creatures because he wanted the audience to “start believing their eyes again.”
I don’t know about you, but that would require a serious pay raise before I filmed any Fear Factor scenes in a movie.
Jay Pinkerton investigates this perennial question for Cracked. He uses a highly scientific formula and evaluates Adam West, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney and Christian Bale based on the following key variables:
Coolness of Costume
Ass-Kicking Ability
Those Wonderful Toys
Smoothness with the Ladies
Posse
Homoerotic Subtext?
Not surprisingly, perhaps, the most recent incarnation, Christian Bale’s, wins.
Unparalleled in the annals of Batdom. Moreso than any movie Batman before him, BatBale makes you believe, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that he could probably kick your ass. Not only do we get an hour-long origin montage in Begins where Bruce Wayne treks up mountains and learns the deadly arts of the ninja, pretty much establishing his ass-kicking credentials from the outset…
…but you also get Christian Bale, who cranked enough steroids prior to Begins‘ filming that, no shit, the producers actually asked him to lose some muscle mass before they could start filming, since he was f[---]ing enormous.
Bale’s is my favorite incarnation as well. But he’s the first in the post-Frank Miller/Dark Knight reboot era, too.
According to science, they are. Personally, I think Naomi must have threatened the scientist with her cell phone.
Researchers have thrown away the old vital statistics and, instead, focused on how the dimensions of different parts of the body relate to height and body mass index (BMI) to give the perfect physique. Perhaps surprisingly, two of the most important measurements are the girth of the thigh and the slimness of the calf.
The researchers, from the University of Gdansk in Poland, studied the vital statistics of 24 finalists in a national beauty competition, together with those of 115 other women. They said that while weight, height and hip ratio were normally used to assess female attractiveness, these might not throw up crucial differences between the super-attractive and others.
For men, scientists said height, BMI, waist-to-hip and waist-to-chest ratios were key measures.
Super-attractive women had a thigh-to-height ratio some 12 per cent lower than other women, giving them a more slender look. Skinfold tests on the calf showed 15mm of fat compared with 18mm in other women.
The study also showed that the average super-attractive height was 5ft 9in, with the waist 76 per cent of the size of the chest, and 70 per cent of the size of the hips. Models built like Naomi Campbell came closest to the ideal.
“Attractiveness of a woman’s body is one of the most important factors in mate selection, and the question what are the physical cues for the assessment of attractiveness is fundamental to evolutionary psychology,” said Leszek Pokrywka, who led the study.
Perfect Woman: Naomi Campbell
Body mass index 20.85
Bust girth to height 49.3%
Waist-chest ratio 1.4
Leg-to-body ratio 1.4
Calf girth to height 19.5%
Height 175cm
Thigh girth to height 29.7
What it all means:
“Super beautiful” women have waists a third smaller than their hips and three-quarters their bust measurement. They have longer legs, and slimmer thighs and calves than the average woman.
Perfect Man: Christian Bale
Body mass index 26.5
Waist-chest ratio 0.6
Leg-to-body ratio 1
Height 188cm
What it all means:
The physically ideal man is more than 6ft tall, with legs the same length as his upper body. The leg-to-body ratio of 1 makes him appear more muscular, which is why the ideal BMI for men is higher than for women.
