Very true.

This confirms it :-

"A crew member working on The Dark Knight was killed Monday during the making of the Bat-sequel. The name of the deceased has not been released, but he has been identified as a camera operator.

According to The BBC, the accident happened off-set at a test track in Longcross in Surrey. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) informed the press that the accident occurred during a "filming production exercise."

The technician was riding in a camera vehicle, said to be a 4x4, that was following the Batmobile during a stunt test run. A statement from Warner Bros. said: "There was a fatal accident at a special effects facility for Batman: The Dark Knight. A technician on the film died when the truck he was in struck a tree following a test run. Warner Bros Pictures and the entire cast and crew of The Dark Knight are deeply saddened by this tragedy, and their hearts and prayers go out to the family and loved ones of the deceased.
"

October 10, 2007 - The next trailer for The Dark Knight will reportedly debut around December, possibly attached to the release of another Warner Bros. picture, I Am Legend, which opens Dec. 14.

Batman-on-Film.com was "told that there's a chance that it could premiere online via TDK's viral marketing campaign as the teaser was released last summer (July at Comic Con)."

The site also claims a one-sheet for the Christopher Nolan-directed sequel is expected soon and that it won't merely be the Bat-logo seen on the official film site.

In other Bat-news, Christian Bale has spoken to KeysiKFM.com about how the fighting style used in Batman Begins -- Keysi Fighting Method -- will differ in The Dark Knight.

"We've gone a bit further with Keysi...I'm actually learning how to do it more realistically than ever before, though it's such an extreme way of fighting," Bale revealed. "There are literally moves where you tear someone's cheek away from their face, or rip their nose off."

Director Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight has been filming on location in Hong Kong, but it appears that local businesses and residents aren't exactly greeting the Bat-sequel with open arms.

Batman was subjected to a blackout by Hong Kong companies after appealing to them to leave their lights on for filming of the movie The Dark Knight, a news report said Wednesday. Letters were sent to 60 companies with waterfront properties appealing to them to leave their lights switched on from 5 pm to midnight so that the Hong Kong skyline would be dazzling in the Warner Bros shoot. But 80 percent of the companies approached ignored the request and switched their lights out at the end of the working day as usual, the South China Morning Post reported.

This news comes on the heels of an earlier report that claimed a major river stunt had to be canceled due to water pollution, a story which a source called "mostly inaccurate" with "only a small bit of truth" to it.

Hong Kong residents aren't the only ones not too keen on The Dark Knight, which co-stars Heath Ledger as the Joker. Oscar winner Jack Nicholson, who played the Joker in Tim Burton's 1989 blockbuster Batman, expressed his disappointment about the film. "They never asked me about a sequel with the Joker. I know how to do that! Nobody ever asked me," Nicholson said. "It's like, in any area, you can't believe the reasons things do or don't happen. Not asking me how to do the sequel is that kind of thing. Maybe it's not a mistake. Maybe it was the right thing, but to be candid, I'm furious."

The superstar added, "I'm not inclined to watch (The Dark Knight) because of what I said. But if it's a good movie, I'll catch up with it somewhere."

From what I've heard, Dent is a good guy in this one but in the jokers trial in the third installment, he scars Dent making him go insane and become two face.

I don't think I've seen this much hype since Star Wars: Episode 1 was set to come out.

It's kind of interesting to see so many people happy/excited though.

Wow, every negative review (all five of them) so far is from a critic in New York.
