    “As I am staring at a page full of Joker cards, I’d say Caslamp works OK too..”

    It doesn’t matter how YOU got through, the correct answer is Gaslamp.

    You only got to the next section because the admins had to make the page dumb proof for people typing it wrong.

  81. sarah Says:

    38 jokers?

  82. eric Says:

    Okay, so it apparently IS unforgivable… how did you find that exactly?

    i am missing work for this?

    i saw a bootleg copy of the teaser trailer on some Japanese batman site its shit

    but at least u hear the jokers voice

  136. grape Says:

    I thought it was a great gimmick. I enjoyed everyone’s enthusiasm. I’m in Toronto, and I haven’t done any work today, so I should get cracking.

    Enjoy the rest of the con!

  137. candy Says:

    found it!
    double click over SMILES next to HANDED! and you get the teaser

    oh yeah

  138. icky thumb Says:

    can’t get to the surveillance page to see what happened!
    does anybody know what happened in san diego ???
    is heath ledger there or other cast members ??

  139. Mike Says:

    i must be stupid but i cant find the link to the teaser, and also do i have to download a 80mb high def trailer for 10 seconds of audio?

  140. Hodadhoney511 Says:

    a little box appears in that general area, and it’s all static-y. click that, it then shows the trailer. it takes awhile for the static box to show up though

  141. candy Says:

    http://whysoserious.com/n_000212.htm

    theres the picture again

  142. gerry Says:

    if you go on the last page now there will be a report about jokers death i think that was the prize
    doesn’t look like heath ledger to me

  143. Eric Says:

    http://www.movieweb.com/news/74/21474.php

  144. Hodadhoney511 Says:

    Haha, don’t you get it? The guy who “won” the contest went to do some negotiations at the morgue. They’re implying they killed the winner to make it look like the Joker had died. Clever marketing.

  145. Eric Says:

    where is this report??

  146. Barry Says:

    Maybe guy on the phone!

  147. gerry Says:

    http://whysoserious.com/n_000212.htm

    bloody hell

  148. Eric Says:

    I see no report or picture on the last page, just the page as always was there (and the trailer easter egg).

  149. grape Says:

    Also, the trailer was a bit of a letdown.
