'''Lónsöræfi''' is a wilderness area in south-east [[Iceland]]. The region is characterised by its varied geological formations. These mostly date from a period 5-7 million years ago when the volcano Kollumúlaeldstöðvar was active. The glacier tongues of the eastern extreme of [[Vatnajökull]] also impose themselves on the area. Visible to the north-west is Snæfell (1833m), the highest peak in Iceland that isn't part of a glacier. The mountains within the area itself include Sauðhamarstindur (1319m) and Jökulgilstindar (1313 m).

Lónsöræfi, while less known and less accessible than areas such as [[Skaftafell]] and the Southern Highlands, is nevertheless popular with hikers. A transport service from Stafafell farm into the reserve via all-terrain bus is available. Alternatively, the recent construction of a [[bridge]] for walkers over the [[Jökulsá í Lóni]] river at [[Eskifell]] has improved access for hikers. There are mountain huts at [[Geldingafell]], [[Múlaskáli]] and [[Egilssel]] run by regional associations of [[Ferðafélag Íslands]]. A 4-6 day walking route from[[ Snæfell]] to Stafafell is possible via the [[Eyjabakkajökull]] glacier tongue. The area can also be reached from[[ Geithellnadalur]]. The nearest settlements of any size are [[Höfn]] and [[Djúpivogur]].

==Heads-up on including new information==
As with any other article on Wikipedia, ''The Dark Knight'' should have a high standard of [[WP:V|verifiability]]. When you include new information about the film, the information needs to be [[WP:V|verifiable]] by other editors. To do this, include where you got the information from by [[WP:CITE|citing accordingly]]. (My recommendation is to use the [[Template:Cite news|Cite news]] or the [[Template:Cite web|Cite web]] template for citing your source.) Also, the citation must be a [[WP:RS|reliable source]]. Ideally, the best information comes from those who are from the studio and not anonymous -- the director, the producers, the screenwriters, the cast, and so forth. Sources of information that '''do not count''' as reliable sources include blogs, scooper reports, forums, etc. If you are unsure about whether or not to include certain information, just ask about it on the talk page, and we will help you determine if it's worthy of inclusion. —[[User:Erik|Erik]] ([[User talk:Erik|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Erik|contrib]]) - 19:32, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

==Nolan talks about Ledger on Newsweek==
I'm not sure if this is something more appropriate on the Ledger article. It's a pretty heartfelt letter from Nolan about Ledger, about his experience with him working on the film. http://www.newsweek.com/id/105580 --[[User:Lordkelvin|Lordkelvin]] ([[User talk:Lordkelvin|talk]]) 23:09, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

==Heath's death needs to be mentioned!==

The entire marketing of the film is now up in the air. The studio heads have a big job on their hands. The film has been in the media associated with Ledger. The posters are going to probably be pulled featuring him as the Joker. The official web site for Batman: The Dark Knight, and the Joker web site, both have tributes. The Dark Knight's web site was actually shut off for a full Heath tribute. The voice over completion was also reported on, if Ledger finished post production. All of this should be mentioned. Right there you have the marketing, production, etc.

You don't have to go into rumors, just what is surrounding the film, now that Heath is deceased.

Nolan has issued a full page tribute to Heath that is heartbreaking.

This is all related to the film, and I hope you get that, since sooner or later, it's going to end up on here as we get closer to the release, and the media totally making it about Heath's last film, and interviewing the cast, asking them about it.

You could now get it concise, and get it "over with", before people start coming on, posting paragraph, after paragraph about Ledger. [[Special:Contributions/68.82.82.248|68.82.82.248]] ([[User talk:68.82.82.248|talk]]) 07:41, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

:It's at the end of the Release section, mentioning how Ledger's death would affect the Joker-centric marketing campaign. Not sure what could be said in the respective entry in the Cast section, though. Thoughts? —<font face="Palatino Linotype">[[User:Erik|Erik]]</font> ([[User talk:Erik|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Erik|contrib]]) - 12:25, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

::As the article is now, the mentions of Ledger's death seems fairly disconnected from the rest of the section. That is, both the Cast section and the Marketing section report a fairly organized presentation of the information, and are then proceeded by a statement acknowledging the death of Heath Ledger. The cast section summarizes the characterization, acting technique, and initial reception of the character of the Joker in this film, but then seems to tack on an obliquely related mention of his death. Similarly, the Marketing section describes the details of the viral marketing campaign and trailers in fairly specific terms, providing an informative history of the marketing, but then makes a somewhat vague statement about the unknown state of said marketing campaign due to Ledger's passing (although I will admit that the information as of now is fairly vague). It would seem to fit better to eventually add a subsection to this article acknowledging Heath Ledger's death in regards to how it affects this film, although I would suggest waiting until the online speculation dies down a bit. In the meantime, I might suggest mentioning Heath's passing in a sentence or two, as that seems to be consistent with the structuring used for [[The Crow (film)|The Crow]] and [[Queen of the Damned (film)|The Queen of The Damned]].[[Special:Contributions/74.74.86.54|74.74.86.54]] ([[User talk:74.74.86.54|talk]]) 05:16, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

::: First, [[WP:NOT]] a memorial. Second [[WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS]] isn't a good reason to do anything. Finally, we've specifically addressed this to achieve consensus before, and no amount of [[WP:ILIKEIT]] overrules good editing and better content policies, including well argued consensus to focus on ledger's death ONLY vis-a-vis it's impact. [[User:ThuranX|ThuranX]] ([[User talk:ThuranX|talk]]) 07:23, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

:::: I didn't mean to suggest that the circumstances surrounding Ledger's death ought to be detailed in this article, nor the public response to it be mentioned, and I do apologize for not making this clearer. What I was trying to say is that the current mentions of it seems to be somewhat unrelated to the sections that they are listed under. For instance, the cast section describes the characterization of the Joker, but the following mention of his death seems to have little to do with this characterization. I do think that the article should limit itself to only mentioning his death as it effects the film, my only suggestion was in regards to how the infomation was structured within the article. [[Special:Contributions/74.74.86.54|74.74.86.54]] ([[User talk:74.74.86.54|talk]]) 19:58, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
::::: Considering that Ledger will sadly not be with us to explain the inner depths of his performance, it seems fine to have a secondary paragraph discussing analysis of his performance. ''[[Halloween (1978 film)|Halloween]]'', an FA, adds a little bit of critical opinions in the direction section (though this seems appropriate considering the low-budget nature of the film). And as more on the marketing takes place, we will report it. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] ([[User talk:Alientraveller|talk]]) 20:03, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
::::::I think that we're all interested in reporting how the death of Heath Ledger impacts this film, but I'm not sure if there's really information besides speculation (especially regarding to the film's marketing). You suggested a separate section about it, but I would have to disagree because sections are usually meant for substantial content. Sometimes we build sections that we expect to be expanded later on (like adding Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic ratings to a "Critical reaction" section with the expectation of quoting actual reviews down the road). However, in this case, we really don't know how much his death will ''really'' affect this project. It's definitely affected ''[[The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus]]'' in a big way. I think the best approach is to add what little we know whenever we can, and if there happens to be a boon of verifiable information down the road, especially with the possibility of this being his last film (depending on ''Parnassus''), we could re-explore the possibility of a separate section. —<font face="Palatino Linotype">[[User:Erik|Erik]]</font> ([[User talk:Erik|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Erik|contrib]]) - 21:40, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

:A death can affect more than just marketing. If you all remember back to the movie "Dirty Work", Chris Farley was in it even though he had died before it's release. Even if there isn't any real evidence to back it up, we all know a substantial number of people went to see that movie that might not have otherwise - simply to see Chris Farleys last performance. The same is the case here. Ledger was apparantly very troubled, and it will likely show greatly in his portrayal of the joker. The page doesn't need a memorial, but a mention is definately in order - his death will sell tickets. I for one was not interested in this movie - but I am planning on seeing it now just to see Ledgers final performance. --[[User:Magus05|Magus05]] <sup>([[User talk:Magus05|talk]])</sup> 01:52, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

==Skateboarding Joker==
The edit tab is disabled, so non-registered users like me cannot add information to the article but you Batman fans may be interested to learn that the Joker apparently rides a skateboard in the new film, according to Nolan [http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2008/01/29/2148987.htm]. Cheers. [[Special:Contributions/210.50.60.22|210.50.60.22]] ([[User talk:210.50.60.22|talk]]) 21:04, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
:No, Ledger might have enjoyed skateboarding on set, but clearly you might be taking Nolan's comments out of context. There is no indication Joker will skateboard in the film. It actually sounds quite trivial though if he did. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] ([[User talk:Alientraveller|talk]]) 21:10, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

::Well, to quote the article, "Ledger plays the psychotic, mass-murdering, skateboarding Joker in Nolan's film, set to be released in July." It is possible the journalist misunderstood Nolan, though.

::I agree it is trivial, so it is really up to you guys whether you want to include it in the article but purely as a bit of trivia, I thought it may be interesting to the diehard fans who want to know how the Joker will be portrayed in this film. [[Special:Contributions/210.50.60.15|210.50.60.15]] ([[User talk:210.50.60.15|talk]]) 22:16, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

:::I think the journalist was making a joke based on what Nolan told him. Nolan said that when he first arrived on set in full make-up he was riding a skateboard.

::::It has been spotted by people while they filmed in Chicago that Joker does indeed skateboard in one scene, down a street. It was captured by Chicago FOX News and is on youtube somewhere. Anyway, I don't think it's too relevant without knowing the full context of the plot. Learning if some actor rides a bike or drives a car in his film is pointless knowledge without background. So I say leave it out for now. --[[User:Lordkelvin|Lordkelvin]] ([[User talk:Lordkelvin|talk]]) 04:43, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

:::::Although it seems to me that yes, they filmed the Joker on aboard, hence the comment about fan reaction, it still counts more as the sort of plot trivia we avoid when paring down overlong plot summaries, and unless that truly matters to the plot beyond being yet another example of the wacky zany showman aspect of Joker, then it's irrelevant, as far as I can tell. Wait and see, I say. [[User:ThuranX|ThuranX]] ([[User talk:ThuranX|talk]]) 05:05, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

::::::I concur with Lordkelvin and ThuranX -- whether or not he will be skateboarding in some scenes, the detail seems presently inane. I mean, on [[Joker (comics)]], this was cited, calling the Joker in the film "a skateboard-riding mass murderer". That's reading into it a little too strongly. It could easily be as irrelevant as him driving the bus in one of the scenes. —<font face="Palatino Linotype">[[User:Erik|Erik]]</font> ([[User talk:Erik|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Erik|contrib]]) - 05:08, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

There is about first 6 minutes and 30 seconds leaked from the movie - I don't want to provide any links, but search on IMDB forums - and I don't know, if it should me mentioned in the article. Because, on one hand, exluding those videos, there is no reliable source that proves these are true footage of TDK - on the other hand, these videos are clearly accurate and from the movie, so it should be mentioned somehow .... I just don't know how to write it there... --''[[Aum|Have a nice day]]''. [[User:Running|Running]] 00:21, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

== Heath Ledger's death was indirectly mentioned ==

The film will be released in Australia before it is released in America. Normally movies made in America are released here first than anywhere else, the earlier release in Australia could have something to do with deceased actor Heath Ledger because, well, I think the actor was originally from Australia. Not sure though. So, though not directly, the article seems to already mention it.

:It does not have anything to do with Ledger's death; I believe that release date was already set before Ledger's death.

That was part of the viral marketing campaign.

He was "believed to be the joker" and was "found dead" a few days later.

== Pictures leaked on April 2nd ==

Is there any confirmation to the legitimacy of any of the pictures on the following website,
[http://www.lyricis.fr/cinema-dvd-serie/batman-the-dark-knight-photos-exclusives-du-joker/] and if so, would it be worth mentioning if the Joker does not wear makeup throughout The Dark Knight, if indeed legitimate? [[Special:Contributions/66.24.238.22|66.24.238.22]] ([[User talk:66.24.238.22|talk]]) 02:55, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
:Even if they are legitimate, we can't really say he doesn't wear makeup throughout the movie. He's only not wearing makeup in one picture. That's hard to determine how much he's wearing the makeup. In any case, until the movie comes out, it would be highly speculative on how much he wears the Joker makeup. ~<font size="3" face="Calibri">[[User:QuasiAbstract|QuasiAbstract]]</font> ([[User talk:QuasiAbstract|talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/QuasiAbstract|contrib]]) 07:49, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Plus, that could be a pre-joker pic, that is, before he starts wearing makeup and becomes a criminal mastermind. Maybe is part of a flashback.[[User:Franshu|Franshu]] ([[User talk:Franshu|talk]]) 21:05, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
::I misspoke in my above post, what I meant to ask was with regards to the possibility of the Joker not wearing makeup ''at some point'' during the movie, that is, whether or not the Joker constantly wears makeup, sorry for the confusion.

== Boldface in the cast of characters section ==

My favorite has to be the newly-bolded '''[[redlink]]'''. There's nothing quite like the most useless part of a screenful of text jumping out at you because it's <font color=red>red and '''bold and <u>underlined</u>'''</font>. Also, I really enjoyed the stage of the dispute when "it's prose, not list" was used as a trump card. Kudos. [[User:Eaefremov|EAE]] (''[[User talk:Eaefremov|Holla!]]'') 05:29, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

:Eaefremov, the point of bolding, as per [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (text formatting)#Boldface]] (see 'definition list') and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Films/Style guidelines#Cast and crew information]], is to aid readability where the names of both actor and character may be indistinct otherwise (i.e. when buried in prose). Surely having separate section headings of each main character's name, as you desired initially, is much more obtrusive? All the best, [[User:Steve|<span style="font-variant: small-caps;">'''Steve'''</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Steve|T]] • [[Special:Contributions/Steve|C]]</sup> 07:29, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

:I agree with ThuranX; the snideness is not appreciated. When I reverted your changes, I left your unbolding of that particular list alone because I agree with the bold redlink setup. As Steve explains, the use of bold formatting is appropriate for the main characters here. If there is another issue with the setup, we can discuss that. I tested a revision using <nowiki>----</nowiki> lines to further the breakup without needing to resort to multiple section headings for the Cast section. In addition, please try to understand that we will make the prose unbroken down the road. At present, it is difficult to use images or quote boxes in the Cast section because the infobox will push either item down. When the film comes out, there will be a full Plot section that pushes content below the reach of the infobox, so we can incorporate these items to break up the prose. —<font face="Palatino Linotype">[[User:Erik|Erik]]</font> ([[User talk:Erik|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Erik|contrib]]) - 12:27, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

== Ensemble cast ==

From the review of the pre-screening, it seems like this movie has about 4 main characters, who all live in some way, and at some point of the film, a double life. It's obviously an [[ensemble cast]] unlike Batman Begins. '''[[User:Chantessy|<span style="background:#cc99ff;color:mediumpurple;border:1px solid mediumpurple;font-family:tahoma;font-size:11px;letter-spacing:-1px">&nbsp;Chantessy&nbsp;</span>]]''' 18:23, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

:I have to disagree with this notion. I don't think it's as obvious as you say, as I've kept up with headlines for ''The Dark Knight'' and have not seen any "ensemble" reference. From what I've seen, ensemble casts usually need to be bigger than 4 (and I'm not even sure who you consider a main character besides Bruce Wayne, Harvey Dent, and the Joker). Films like the ''Ocean's Eleven'' trilogy, ''Bobby'', and ''Sunshine'' have all been cited to be ensemble films with ensemble casts. I haven't seen this explicit categorization for ''The Dark Knight'', but I welcome any coverage from third-party, published sources. —<font face="Palatino Linotype">[[User:Erik|Erik]]</font> ([[User talk:Erik|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Erik|contrib]]) - 21:52, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

:First, this isn't the place to discuss such things. The talk page of the article is for discussing improvements to the article. But, to quickly answer you, what makes you think that you were seeing Gotham city anyway? You could have very well have been seeing the film's version of Hong Kong. Nothing says something couldn't have taken place in Hong Kong. Trailers are naturally deceptive with how they edit certain scenes. That's why we generally don't use them to cite events in a film. ''The Prestige'' is a prime example of that, as Christian Bale's character is insinuated to be a "real magician" (i.e. a wizard), but in fact it's referring to a completely different character.

Something I'd suggest removing is the other filmmakers' interpretations of Ledger's take on Joker, and rewriting all the stuff on the viral marketing. Yay? Nay? [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] ([[User talk:Alientraveller|talk]]) 11:26, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
:I've given this comment its own heading because it relates to previous discussions about editing this article and goes far beyond "cleanup" into changing the content of the article (its substance). A lot of work by many editors and their attempts to achieve some consensus on some of the above-mentioned content would be lost and many source citations (that may be referred back to in subsequent coded citations) would also be lost. I do not see any rationale being offered for the above suggestion. First of all, please refer to each point you question by quoting it specifically so one can know specifically what you are talking about. The reference to "all the stuff on the viral marketing" is vague; the subject of "viral marketing" (in both lead and in body of article supporting the lead) was discussed by a number of editors earlier and is documented with reliable sources that are verifiable.

::Wow you're formal. My point was I had added analysis of Ledger's performance by filmmakers like [[Guillermo del Toro]], [[Paul Dini]] and [[Mark Hamill]] ages ago to compliment the info on actors who were interested in the part and Jack Nicholson being "furious". It does show how big bringing back the character to the big screen was, and cruelly ironic that I put filmmakers analyzing Heath's performance there, before he died and thus will never give us final insight into his performance.
::My second suggestion is the marketing section might be long, and violate [[WP:NOTGUIDE]].

Some elaboration was made on the characterisation of Batman, Harvey Dent, and the Joker, although this information may be somewhat redundant.

==Early Protection==
Recently the Two Face page has been vandalised a couple of times and as this movie gets closer you know the vandalism is coming so should we go ahead and protect the page?[[User:LifeStroke420|LifeStroke420]] ([[User talk:LifeStroke420|talk]]) 14:14, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

:We only protect pages that have a clear case of vandalism happening repeatedly. We don't do it for the potentialness of vandalism.

{{DEFAULTSORT:Lonsoraefi}}

Revision as of 23:08, 9 October 2008

Lónsöræfi is a wilderness area in south-east Iceland. The region is characterised by its varied geological formations. These mostly date from a period 5-7 million years ago when the volcano Kollumúlaeldstöðvar was active. The glacier tongues of the eastern extreme of Vatnajökull also impose themselves on the area. Visible to the north-west is Snæfell (1833m), the highest peak in Iceland that isn't part of a glacier. The mountains within the area itself include Sauðhamarstindur (1319m) and Jökulgilstindar (1313 m).

Lónsöræfi, while less known and less accessible than areas such as Skaftafell and the Southern Highlands, is nevertheless popular with hikers. A transport service from Stafafell farm into the reserve via all-terrain bus is available. Alternatively, the recent construction of a bridge for walkers over the Jökulsá í Lóni river at Eskifell has improved access for hikers. There are mountain huts at Geldingafell, Múlaskáli and Egilssel run by regional associations of Ferðafélag Íslands. A 4-6 day walking route fromSnæfell to Stafafell is possible via the Eyjabakkajökull glacier tongue. The area can also be reached fromGeithellnadalur. The nearest settlements of any size are Höfn and Djúpivogur.
