ORIGINAL STORY 4/23:
On Wednesday, April 23rd the viral marketing campaign for The Dark Knight kicked back into high gear. Emails were sent out from Jim Gordon with instructions to help out in a sting operation to apprehend corrupt Gotham City police officers. At the website Operation Splipknot pictures were posted of bad cops along with intel gathered that lead people to call the Gotham Intercontinental Hotel and request a package being held. The lucky few that got through on the phone lines started receiving their packages first thing on the morning of the 24th and, as they registered online, Gordon and his crew moved in to arrest the corrupted. Find out all the details of the entire operation here. Once all the arrests had been made, some folks received calls from Jim Gordon thanking them for all their hard work. Those out there with Joker phones received text messages from the Clown Prince of Crime telling them “it’s all part of the plan.” Adding that message to the end of the the whysoserious website yielded a new website with Jokerized portraits of US Presidents along with a lever that, when activated, revealed the below new poster. Also on that site is a note that simply says “four days.” Could that mean we will get the new trailer on Monday?!? Stayed tuned! Meanwhile, check out the poster and yearn to see this movie even more!
