Holy Spoilers Batman!
My campy title aside, this article is packed full of spoilers and rumors and speculation, so if you’re the least bit queasy about unsubstantiated rumors, or you just want to keep yourself a virgin for the film, then don’t take the jump.
The rumors are filing in all over the place, and here at CBM we’re going to corral them all for you so you don’t have to do the work. We’ve done it for you.
First of all from Hollywood Chicago, news is that the IBM building in downtown Chicago is acting as the headquarters for Wayne Enterprises. And, if you like explosions, then the rumored demolition of the former Brach Candy factory site will likely make you wet your pants, as, unlike a controlled demolition, this one is going to be flamy!
Heading back to Slash Film, the people who brought you spoilers listed here, “Tophrman” claims to have got his (or her?) hands on the shooting details for this week’s filming of Rory’s First Kiss. They’re listed below, and all credit goes to Slash Film.
• Harvey Dent reveals himself to be Batman at a wild press conference at Superior Court Dent.
• The National Guard patrols through downtown Gotham.
• At Wayne Enterprises, a new character named Reese (played by Joshua Harto) tries to blackmail Lucius Fox using Batman’s identity.
• Bruce Wayne discusses his plans for Lau (played by Chin Han) with Lucius Fox. But the real question is, who is Lau?
• Someone breaks in to the Wayne Enterprises’ Research and Development, and Fox is notified.
• Jim Gordon explains “just enough” to get Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart) to issue search warrants. For what, we don’t know.
• Jim Gordon tells Commissioner Loeb (played by Colin McFarlane) that his life is threatened, Loeb drinks to that.
• Harvey Dent promises the Mayor a crime-free 18 months right before a fake Batman hits the Mayors Office window.
• A fake Batman dummy hangs from the flagpole outside City Hall.
• Jim Gordon tries to get Reese out out of the street entrance of a tv studio, but an angry mob appears. Bruce Wayne serves as a distraction. I wonder what Reese was doing on TV? May-be he was there to reveal Batman’s identity? But if so, why would Bruce Wayne help him out? The actor playing Reese (Joshua Harto) looks pretty young. May-be he’s an up-and-coming reporter who somehow figured out Batman’s true identity? But this still doesn’t explain why there is an angry mob awaiting his exit from the building.
Over at IESB, a reader has posted in the forums showcasing a whole heap of spoilers, some of which are mentioned above, but others, such as this teaser – “Stephen tells Barbara of Gordon's death. She blames Batman” – has me absolutely enthralled!
We’ll keep them coming, just as soon as we see them, and if you happen to be in the know, then shoot us an email!
