Chapter 129: The Shock of The Dark Knight! At This Point, It Is Art!

"Some people simply defy logic."

"He doesn't care about money, isn't afraid of threats, has absolutely no bottom line in what he does, follows no reason whatsoever, and cannot be negotiated with…"

"Some people just want to watch the world burn."

The Joker's several appearances have already produced a tremendous impact on everyone present.

No matter how evil or cruel the previous villains were,

never before has a villain possessed a unique charm like the Joker's.

Xu Can's performance has interpreted a brand-new Joker for everyone—one that respects the original yet transcends it!

Now the film critics finally understand why Xu Can didn't go shoot Spider-Man 2, didn't appear in his own Marvel role, but went next door to DC to play the Joker…

He was enjoying the performance!

Only the Joker in The Dark Knight could maximize the joy of acting.

By now the film has been running for an hour, and the clash between Batman and the Joker has only just begun!

……

The Joker continues his killing spree; after dealing with the commissioner and the judge, he sets his sights on the mayor of Gotham!

Bruce Wayne uses a high-tech device to analyze fingerprints from bullet fragments and quickly locks onto the target.

Above the venue of the mayor's public speech the next day.

The next day, Gotham police officers gather to mourn the fallen commissioner.

As the mayor gives his speech, the Joker has already mixed in among the crowd below.

During the gun salute, the Joker attempts to shoot and kill the mayor,

but luckily he is saved by Sergeant Gordon—Gordon takes a bullet and is killed, and amid the chaos the Joker escapes.

"Huh? Gordon is dead?"

"No way, he died just like that?"

The moviegoers cry out in shock.

Audiences familiar with Batman all know that Commissioner Gordon is an important character in the comics.

He hasn't even become commissioner yet and he's already dead—how will the story proceed from here?

Shocked, they can't spare the time to think it through, afraid of missing a single shot.

At the next day's press conference, Bruce had planned to reveal to the world that he is Batman.

If he doesn't show up, the Joker's killings will only grow more outrageous.

Iron Man's iconic scene is about to appear in Batman.

Who would have thought Harvey Dent would publicly expose himself as Batman!

The media below erupts in an uproar!

Bruce: I'm done for—I've become the body double?

The police need to escort "Batman" Harvey Dent to prison, and inevitably run into the Joker along the way.

He lies on top of the carriage, casually spraying the vehicles with a submachine gun—somehow looking a little cool doing it.

The entire convoy's car-chase and crash scenes were all practically filmed by Nolan,

and the texture of real vehicle collisions simply makes the audience feel immersed! They can't help but break a sweat for Harvey Dent.

After a string of explosions, gunfire, and thrilling car chases delivering wave after wave of little Gao Chaos to the audience,

Batman arrives in the Batmobile and takes out the Joker's henchmen.

Only the Joker remains, driving a giant truck in pursuit of Harvey Dent.

At the critical moment, Batman rides his motorcycle and uses a high-tech cable to snag the truck!

Next comes the most stunning shot among all the practical footage in this film!

This shot, Xu Can was even reluctant to put in the trailer!

He wanted the audience before the IMAX giant screen to experience an intense sensory shock!

But then that 18-wheel giant truck, pulled by the cable, actually flipped over in mid-air and crashed heavily to the ground!

Boom!

The Dolby sound effects combined with the giant screen deliver such a powerful impact,

it feels as if a real truck is flipping vertically right there in the theater!

Every moviegoer in the audience is pinned to their seat by this scene, hearts surging!

What they don't know at this moment is that this shot was filmed in only one take!
