WARNING: Super-nerdiness ahead.

So, if This post is anything to go by, the events of the movie have already passed, meaning
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
SWAT has presumably taken the Joker custody.
So, under the assumption this text message means there's more ARG coming...

Another cell-phone-based jail break, anyone? Very Happy

^^That's what I'd like to think but as far as we know....

The Joker is gone for good.

Or at least that's what Chris Nolan has gone on record as saying.

Of course, that doesn't mean that he can't live on in ARG world.....
I guess we'll just have to wait and see.


DeformedUncleLouie:
It was sent out to the Joker phones via text message yesterday afternoon
Sorry for no explanation on the origin.

can you confirm that it actually went to the Joker phones that were handed out with cakes and bowling balls? I don't see any mention of this anywhere else, not even on SuperHeroHype where people would be jumping all over something like this.

Don't get me wrong, I want the game to go on too. But this just doesn't seem like 42's style to me. They've broken the 4th wall a little in this game by giving us posters/trailers/etc, but the joker has never stated directly in a message from him that this is a game.

Is it maybe related to the Myspace joker page? That has always seemed difficult to consider credible as a real part of the game to me too, as there has never been any mention of a myspace page anywhere else in the ARG. And any information found on the myspace page has always been found elsewhere in the game first.

Maybe it's up to 42 to close the "Well, I never saw him die or anything" aspect of the Joker so we don't have to worry about a recast in a third film or any unanswered questions about where he is and what he's up to.

First off: Nice addition to you avatar Thunder. It looks great on you. (or shall I say, your bag)

Second: yeah it was from the myspace Joker page.
Which - before everyone jumps down my throat, has been accurate every time he has posted thus far. The only difference is that he posts after the messages go out.

As far as I know, the guy that runs the Joker myspace page is a player who got one of the Cake phones and this was his way of keeping other clowns or goons informed. By only posting actual text messages recieved on his phone from WSS. Or at least that's what he told me when I asked him about it. I've checked up on as many posts of his as I could and all of them turned out legitimate. The more to come comment does seem a little suspicious but then again, who's to say that there isn't more to come. I thought I saw someone mention it over at SHH but it didn't have it's own thread. It was just randomly in some over-crowded bs thread about stuff that didn't matter. I'll check it out and see if I can find it again.

Well, considering this all pretty much started with last year's Comic-con event (Okay, maybe there was some stuff before that, but... Razz) and this year's comic-con is only a few days away... I'm hoping we'll get some action.
