In this exclusive video interview Michael Caine talks about the next Batman movie ( # 3 in the current Chrispopher Nolan series, what some fans call "The Dark Knight 2" ) & he also has a few things to say about Christian Bale's famous hissy-fit while shooting the Terminator movie, ha ha!
Well, it appears that Warner Bros is totally sucking up to all the people who can vote for Oscars. In many of the Hollywood Trade Magazines ( Variety, Hollywood Reporter, etc..) they have placed full-page ads to remind the voters that THE DARK KNIGHT Batman movie deserves a lot of Oscars. Shown here are just a few but there are a lot more! The 1st nomination that I think needs to be honored is for Heath Ledger as The Joker. He truly did an amazing job & I'm not just saying that to be nice because he passed away. He really deserves it & he will be missed. It's kind of sad to think about all the future performances we will be missing out on. He's seriously a great talent. Of course there are many other Best Supporting Actors who should be included too. The list would be Michael Caine, Gary Oldman, Aaron Eckhart, & Morgan Freeman. The whole cast did an incredible job! The Dark Knight easily deserves Best Movie of The Year while Christopher Noland should get Best Director. Also, let's not forget Best Supporting Actress Maggie Gyllenhaal, she's wonderful. I also think we should even mention Christian Bale for his contribution. The movie deserves a lot of "technical awards" for stuff like Art Direction, Film Editing, Best Make Up, Best Costume Design, etc...we'll have to wait & see. Because of The Dark Knight Batman movie this year's Oscars Award Show should be pretty fun to watch, & kind of nerve-racking too, ha ha!
Late last night, at midnight, I went to my local theater & viewed the new Dark Knight Batman movie!! OH MY GOD!!! I'm not kidding when I say this movie is a True Art Masterpiece! It was amazing. Every actor's performance was brilliant, especially Heath Ledger as The Joker. Heath Ledger took the Joker character to a whole new level & he simply deserves an Oscar for his performance. But, to be honest, so does every other actor on this film: Christian Bale ( Batman & Bruce Wayne ), Gary Oldman ( Lieutenant Jim Gordon ), Aaron Eckhart ( District Attorney Harvey Dent & Two-Face Villain ), Michael Caine ( Butler Alfred Pennyworth ), Morgan Freeman ( Lucius Fox ), & Maggie Gyllenhaal ( Rachel Dawes ), among others. It's also important to note that Christopher Nolan deserves a "Best Director" Oscar & The Dark Knight should get "Best Movie of The Year"! I know I sound kinda crazy but I'm totally serious when I say that if you're a true Batman Fan you will totally LOVE this movie...go see it tonight, twice!

Here are 2 really hard to find video clips showing Michael Caine being interviewed the other night by Jay Leno on The Tonight Show. Of course this is about him plugging The Dark Knight Batman movie. Mr. Caine has some really great stories & from all reports I've heard he's a very nice guy. I wanna thank Stephanie over at the "What Is Techno Again?" website for sending the information. Down below is a link to check out her cool blog.
Be sure to check out Michael Caine's interview on NBC's THE TONIGHT SHOW with JAY LENO on Friday, July 11th ( check your local listing for time ). Of course we all know him as Alfred, Bruce Wayne's Butler, in Batman Begins & The Dark Knight. He's an extremely funny & very intelligent guy so it should be quite good. Plus, there might be some new insight to the new Batman movie we have not heard before.

Sunday night, during Survivor, they showed the very 1st TV Commercial Movie Trailer for THE DARK KNIGHT Batman Movie. This TV spot #1 showed some new footage of Batman, Joker, & the other characters. I like when Morgan Freeman says, "Perhaps you should read the instructions first". It also introduces the phrase, "OUT OF THE DARKNESS, COMES THE KNIGHT"...Awesome!
