New Dark Knight Viral Campaign Kicks Off Plus, Two-Face talks Source: Wizard Universe
Last week, a Dark Knight viral website ibelieveinharveydent.com asked people to submit their email address and phone number to help the campaign of Harvey Dent, who – *really well known spoiler alert* – will become Two-face in The Dark Knight.
Today, that same website has been updated as a kind of campaign hub for Dent's (played by Aaron Eckhart) race to become District Attorney. Head here for a look.
It's essentially asking you to download the campaign posters and capture you and your friends on film looking cheerfully silly in support of Dent. The 'Dentmobile' will also be travelling the US.
This is pretty much a flip-side to the Joker campaign that happened a few months ago, and has now understandably taken a back seat after Heath Ledger's passing. Instead of inciting people to (very friendly) anarchy, this is encouraging fun in a more wholesome way. Does this mean we'll soon be rewarded with a first look at Two-Face? The Dark Knight will be making a presentation at next week's ShoWest convention, so we might get something then. Check back for our report from there next week.
In related news, Wizard Universe has a little chat with Eckhart about how he's approaching the character. There's not a lot revealed in terms of story, but a lot on how we'll see how Harvey Dent's actions in this film and what he sees of Gotham come to inform the opposing personalities he'll have as Two-Face. Read that here.
Genius, I for one will be downloading the stuff and taking daft pictures of myself pledging support for Harvey Dent.
Cannot fucking wait for this, Hellboy 2, Indy, Ironman, Hulk, and Tropic Thunder. ... Read More
If it wasn't for a certain fedora wearing archeologist this would surely be the most anticipated sequel of the year. It's a strange situation to be so happy to have another sequel filled summer. ... Read More
Seems to involve filming yourself showing support for "Harvey", as far as I know...(Which isn't a lot to be fair e there'll be a Two-Face picture by the end of it.

Nice to see the Campaign starting again. There's been a massive void at the minute with the passing of heath and the subsequent ceaseing of the Joker Viral campaign. I'm glad to see the ball rolling again. I still think it's funny that we haven't heard a thing from the bat-camp yet. Oh well roll on the summer. ... Read More
This is absolutely excellent!!!!! The marketing has been first class, by the time TDK hits the screens, most people will feel they are apart of it. And if it's true about how they are filming Harvey as Two-Face, it's gonna be awesome. I'm so fuckin excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ... Read More
