The Joker To Reappear For April Fool's
Filed under: Action, Warner Brothers, Fandom, Movie Marketing, Comic/Superhero/Geek, Remakes and Sequels
Harvey Dent's viral campaign has ended with a rather disappointing announcement that Dent is running for D.A. But, no doubt, this political campaign has been leading up to something more. I was one of the thousands who received a voice mail from Dent Sunday afternoon urging me to help him fight the Citizens for a Concerned Gotham, the latest viral site to be launched. They've been very busy slandering poor Dent in the press as a corrupt and media crazed inquisitor. (I have to say, when my cellphone announced it had a voice mail, I was super excited. And then let down when it turned out to be Aaron Eckhart and not someone I actually knew.)
He's holding a meeting on April 1st, 3pm -- presumably Eastern time -- to answer all the questions of concerned citizens. The problem is, the Joker has also launched a new site, Clown Travel Agency. A departure is announced for April 1st, 3pm. He's also told followers that they'll hear from him again on April Fool's Day.

My gut says the Joker and Dent will be having a confrontation -- and that the handsome D.A. is going to be losing his looks. Would they spoil that kind of story on a mere viral campaign? Maybe we will just be getting a new trailer and Two-Face will remain a mystery until The Dark Knight screens. At any rate, keep checking the sites of Harvey Dent and the Clown Travel Agency. Of course, we'll post what happens here on Cinematical.

I'm hoping for a confrontation between the two, a scene from the movie perhaps. clowntravelagency broadcasts from The Joker's P.O.V. while IBIHD.com broadcasts from Harvey's. Gives a bit of a two-face aspect to the confrontation as well.

I'm pretty sure they won't spoil that in a viral. Besides, what would Sal Maroni be used for in TDK if Joker was the one to scar Dent? My personal theory, is that Joker works for/with the mob, and causes Dent to feel the need for an extreme brand of justice, like in The Long Halloween. And Maroni will be the one to scar him. Joker is basically just a playing card in the scheme of things.

Harvey Dent appears in the movie so I really doubt he turns into Two-Face in the viral.
