Six Minutes of Dark Knight Heaven; Better Than a Hit of Joker Gas

Christopher Nolan presented an IMAX screening of the first six minutes of The Dark Knight, which will be shown before IMAX screenings of I Am Legend, last night in New York.
Radtke from Under Ground Online was there:
Before the clip ran, Nolan stood before us, dramatically lit from behind by the glowing 80-foot IMAX screen. He shot several scenes using the IMAX camera; a first for a feature length film. These six minutes introduce Heath Ledger’s interpretation of The Joker to the world and Nolan’s intention was for this introduction to stand alone as a “short film.” Easily the best short film I’ve seen since Hardware Wars.
Click below and I’ll spoil the whole thing for you. If you would rather not know, know that it is badass. Forget Nicholson, “The Laughing Fish,” Caesar Romero, Mark Hamil and The Killing Joke. Heath Ledger’s Joker is THE definitive Joker.
I’ll give you the same option. If you do not want to be spoiled, do NOT click either the above link to the article or this one.
That said, I REALLY recommend that you click the link. Nothing is spoiled that you won’t see within the first six minutes of the movie, and the description alone had me squealing like a 12 year old schoolgirl.
This movie is going to be amazingly badass.
