Why So Serious Bat Shaped Jack-o-Lantern October 18th, 2007

Why So Serious has updated, removing the forward link to the atrocious clown site, replacing it with a simple yet haunting flash file depicting a flickering jack-o-lantern with a bat shaped ghoulish grin. Creepy.

And the rumors – A viral marketing campaign to reach its pinnacle come Halloween?

(Thanks for the heads up Jay)

Why So Serious Pumpkin The Dark Knight

EDIT: Some astute viewers have noticed that the candle is slowly burning down, if you go to the site now you will see that the candle is much shorter.

…the flame in the pumpkins mouth only points to the right…

This resembles the Batman cover of
The Legends of the Dark Knight: Batman Madness. It’s carved exactly the same minus the Mad Hatter’s Hat.

Just an observation.

…the right side is beginning to decay…

Not only is the flame going down, but the pumpkin is starting to rot and whither. the bottom left fang (viewer’s right) is shriveling and there is some mold starting to grow on the left side of the face.

Right side of pumpkin decaying. 2 Face?

The image of the pumpkin is directly pulled from The Long Halloween comic book series, cited by the director as direct inspiration for Begins and The Dark Knight.

I’m predicting the film’s first one-sheet when the candle burns out on Halloween.
