B.Chandler Blog.moviefone.com has a great piece about what I talked about yesterday. Is all the footage we’re seeing part of a misinformation campaign by Christopher Nolan and his team? 4 arguments proving the conspiracy and 2 against…
Two Very Solid Arguments Against the Conspiracy Theory:
1. These exact same kind of leaks were all over the place for ‘The Dark Knight”s Chicago shoot in 2007. Footage of Heath Ledger as the Joker, the Lamborghini chase and a whole lot more were posted on YouTube as they were filmed. Watching those amateur videos today, we can see how very little they convey of the impact, scope and artistry — or the plot, for that matter — of the movie itself.2. Sure, Nolan has made Warner Bros. a lot of money but no studio or director would go to the extreme of filming fake scenes at what would be an enormous expense. Sure, maybe one here or there but not an entire film shoot. Our money’s on (at least most of) these scenes being legit. And that Nolan still has enough tricks up his sleeve to entertain us thoroughly.
