  • that.....was.....fucking amazing

  • For the record, JN Howard wrote this theme.

  • @NowhereToBeFound77 JNH and zimmer collaborated on it

  • @shady1630 The entire soundtrack, yes, they collaborated, but there are interviews where it is noted this theme was Howard alone.

  • what that song that plays when credits start to roll? i mean just after Gordon says in the end 'A Dark Knight'

  • holy fuck that's probably the most powerful music i've ever heard. thanks for sharing

  • 1:23

    

  • show me a hero and I will show you a tragedy

  • just can't get enough

  • poor, poor Harvey... :(

  • Comment removed

  • @4:42 till end is so EPIC. That part alone can be on a CD and I'll still buy it.

  • @roshantheone2005 have bought it yet?

  • @MiloIsaac90 Yea, I own the 1 disc edition (Not the new special 2 disc edition)

  • @roshantheone2005 I always say that are the best 95 seconds of music. so wonderful.

  • proud to be german because of hans =)

  • I haven't even heard this full song yet because I keep restarting at 1:40

  • I'm serious! This Hans guy is a genious! I love most of his music, but this movie soundtrack I love the most!

  • Oh come on who disliked this?

  • @JammyPoohBear i don't know, maybe someone who's speakers broke while listening to this, and as a result, accidently pressing the dislike button :(

  • For all of you Hans Zimmer vs. JNH guys:

    Both are great composers, but it is simply a fact that Zimmer is better. Howard is amazing too, this piece is awesome, but Zimmer can write both amazingly epic char-chase/spectacular-battle songs AND tragic, emotional songs like this (Inception's Time.)

  • @DarklordofDOOM57 That would be like saying that its fact that The Dark Knight is better than the Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.

  • Heath Ledger<3

  • one guy burned his face

  • one gay burned his face

  • Brilliant, best song on the soundtrack for me.

  • The animated series has the better theme.

  • @JustASpaceCowboy agreed dude

  • Such a tragic song for such a tragic character, with some hints of the brilliant man that once was inbetween. Pure brilliance. Very few pieces of music have ever been able to make me cry, and this is one of them. Good job, Mr. Newton Howard.

  • I'm addicted to this...

  • I like how even at the start you can hear the rumblings of what Dent is to become and in the middle what he once was.

  • This sounds so much like the piece in Revenge of the Sith

  • @aliasgirl47

    Ew.

  • Pure speechless marvelous epicness

  • This thing has some beautiful chords.

  • C'est une musique incroyable, ca penetre toute mon ame!

  • 5:14 to 5:42 i'm in heaven. Thumbs up.

  • 1:25 onwards...nerdgasm O_o

  • funny how one instrumental from a soundtrack can almost tell as gripping and powerful a story as the film itself. that's the mark of a damn good composer.

  • Those who keep saying bad things about Hans Zimmer desperately need to go listen to the soundtracks for "The Lion King", "Pirates Of The Caribbean" This is Zimmer all the way. You can tell because of the similarities with his other works.

  • @CynicalThought james newton howard actually did this, not zimmer. of course its similar to zimmers other works, they both worked on the soundtrack to this movie but howard did this song

  • @CynicalThought This is James Newton Howard all the way.

  • @Jsdo1980

    Too bad JNH won't be returning for TDK.... )':

  • One poor guy has Parkinson and accidentally clicked "dislike"

  • Comment removed

  • -Two-face, harvey two-face.

  • This theme is so, so, sad. It's tearing me apart. It seriously makes me feel like I'll never be happy again. And yet I keep wanting to hear it. Can't be healthy, right?

  • Heath Ledger RIP. ='( I had at first been spazzing out because i thought Harley would SURELY be in the third movie.... but how can there be a Harley without the amazing joker? T_T

  • has anyone noticed that on the photo in this vid, batman is just staring at a beam, not even looking out the window just the beam

  • @007Num1fan ya the dark knight rises cant wait!! =D

  • JNH and Zimmer are no better than each other. They both have separate styles of composing and write what they feel is necessary to write in order to tell the story of a scene.

  • @nusua Both do such an incredible job. Beautiful work.

  • and a message to the uploader, dude u SUCK, who the fuck would ruin the whole feeling of the song with that STUPID USELESS "mw2 gameplay" and a lame " ;D" ? jesus christ!

  • Some of this was used in Begins

  • @316shibby After Bruce's parents died? Or after he jumps out of a window?

  • @jake5 Havent watched in a while but i believe it was when he was riding the train with his parents @ 5:15

  • 2:43 is what I wake up to EVERY morning

  • i couldn't even compose ten seconds of music, so listening to this song confirms the talent of hans zimmer and james newton howard...

    blows my mind :D

  • @ouranxx Absolutely true my friend ;-)

  • i play this in band and it sounds like it! i got goosebumps just listening to this!! :)

  • This cud be a lil theme for the loss of Heath Ledger...R.I.P.

  • James Newton Howard is a better composer than Zimmer. Zimmer's talent died in 2003.

  • @Nancy99999

    What about Inception then? The Last Samurai? Have to go on?

  • @Nancy99999

    WTF?

  • @Nancy99999 The fuck??!!!!!!!!! Inception?! Pirates of the caribiean?! The simpsions movie? Sherlock holmes?!

  • @inception4ever gladiator ?!

  • @Nancy99999 umm there was pirates of the caribbean, sherlock holmes, inception, the last samauri, batman begins i dont think it died in 2003 but it is your opinion

  • @Nancy99999 hahahahaah u are the dumbest person on youtube who acts like knows some things when he doesnt know SHIT and just says random stuff just to show off his alleged "talent in music" xD

  • @alieninvestigator You're a fucking idiot. Learn how to type, freak. By the way, it's a she, asshole. You sneer into things you don't know nothing about. Get some education, jerk.

  • @Nancy99999 why do u keep insisting on your stupid ideas since everyone insulted u? so, pls, can u justify to me, the fact that Newton Howard is better that Zimmer since u are so educated and sneer into thing YOU KNOW... explain to me how the soundtrack of Last Samurai, Dark Knight, Pirates of the Caribben, Inception and A LOT MORE are music of a "dead" man... cant u see that evey single person here is making fun of your ignorance? so shut up please..

  • @alieninvestigator You're so simple minded and insanely stupid. You're the only fucker who's replied to me harshly. So no one thinks I'm stupid. You are also very dumb and terribly uneducated - what's up with your English skills? Be ashamed. I'm betting you're a 13 year old or some very stupid guy. First, idiot, learn English, and then come and insult me.

    "haha u r the dumbest person..." - Is that it? No mature argument. Give me a rational argument and then insult me. How about ask me why.

  • @alieninvestigator Um, I actually agree with her. James Newton Howard is a better composer, especially at random tracks, rather than themes. Zimmer's music is getting repetitive as he is using his typical motifs and cues. Also, his music is just loud noises these days and very electronic. Listen to this piece again by Howard ^ That's beautiful music compared to Zimmer's tracks in TDK OST. And she's right, you're very rude and immature. Use rational argument, don't jump to insults!

  • @Zombiestewstudios Check out the Internet Movie Database website. Search for The Dark Knight Rises. Then go Frequently Asked Questions-section and you can see that the filming will start in April 2011 and the movie is to be released in July 20 2012.

  • @Zombiestewstudios No, it wasn't a fake. The next Batman-movie will premiere in 2012 and goes by name 'The Dark Knight Rises'. The script is done, now they are collecting the cast and will start shooting the movie itself this year.

  • @SpiderBoy992 It really is an epic part of the song though. My orchestra has the score for this and it includes those.

  • beautiful

  • still nothing compared to Zimmer's "time" in INCEPTION..........that was just hair raising stuff.

  • Name your top 5 Batman enemies:

    1. Joker

    2. Two-face.

    3. Riddler.

    4. Penguin.

    5. Catwoman

  • @DsQ161 replace catwoman with BANE and itl all b good

  • The night is DARKEST just before the dawn, but i promise you, the DAWN IS COMING!!!"......

  • @007Num1fan HOLY KNUCKES!!! I'M GONNA WATCH THIS FOR SURE. to bad the joker died, now he wont be in it T_T

  • 5:10 = resonating waves of orgasmic sound waves.

  • @fiend7777 2:33-3:20 is NOT in the film. must be for an EXTENDED scene they never showed. also 3:58-5:45 was not used as well..... they NEED to make a director's cut of some sort, or at least an unrated cut w/ more violence, more shots and scenes, and alternate dialouge(even though 90%-98% of the film was there!)

  • @SpiderBoy992 Yeah, I noticed. I played this piece with my orchestra at the Midwest Clinic. It's too bad though, 3:58-5:45 is my favorite part.

  • @SpiderBoy992 Himmer composes a score, Nolan introduces it as he pleases, a score doesn't have to be entirely complete in a movie.

    To support my facts, check out the movie, there is not one single time a score is entirely reproduced start-end. Its sound mixing.

    The purpose of the music is to give drama to the movie according to the scene.

  • @DsQ161 YES, YES , YES, YEEEEEESSSS; finally, someone understands me!!!!!. Mi friends are saying I have not taste in movies, because I say exactly the same thing

  • 1 dislike...

  • @veso5554 Whoever disliked better have fking misclicked.

  • @veso5554 , maybe it´s the guy from the first jury scene(the gangster with the chinesse gun)... :)

  • hmmm, i didn't like it. its to.... hmm ^^

  • @89sDude It's too what?

  • ending :O amazing

  • Comment removed

  • Which soundtrack is the one that played over the burned face reveal?

  • this is probably the worste score of the film but it's still brilliant. goes to show.

  • Comment removed

  • Harvey and Bruce were such a great teem. Too bad...

  • 4:27 and 4:44 coin flips

  • Harvey Dent and Two-Face's theme. This song is named when Gordon tells Harvey's nickname which is "Harvey-Two-Face"

  • This song is so amazing... It's calm at first, describing Dent's unaltered innocent self, then it turns dark signaling when he became corrupted and turned into Two-Face. I LOVE this song!

  • I love this entire song but 4:45 to the end is my just plain beautiful.

  • Damn this is too deep

  • before this i like joker, but this song tell me harvey two face is a smart villain.

  • Actually, the dialogue you have posted is wrong. It's not "because he's not a hero," but really, "because he's not our hero." Otherwise Gordon's speech is somewhat contradictory.

  • @007Num1fan Yupp release date was announced too July 19 2012

  • @007Num1fan the main question is who will play the joker?

  • @burby8100: you mean, IF he's in the movie at all?

  • @burby8100 I heard from a very unreliable source (so don't quote me on this) that Bale and Nolan both said if they put another actor in the place of Ledger for the Joker, they would both walk from the movie. I don't have time to check whether this is accurate or not so if someone could confirm or deny this that would be great.

  • @burby8100 Joseph gordon-levitt was rumored...and i mean rumored as in it's just a thought.

  • @pietroerperugino Are you kidding me? You think Obama is doing noble things for America? What he has done is going to possibly bring America to it's knees. He is a socialist. Do you know what that means?

  • @StevenTylerIsMyLife Jesus fucking Christ, can you people go for five minutes without launching into an anti-Obama rant? It's a video about the goddamn BATMAN. Give it a rest.

  • @NYanarchy08 Why should I give it a rest when the future of OUR NATION! is in the hands of an idiot? Yeah it's a batman video, we all see that, so now that we've stated the obvious how about you get some sense into your head and realize why I would bring up Obama. I never complained about him, but now with his heathcare shit, I have a fucking right to complain!

  • @StevenTylerIsMyLife Of course you have the right to complain, but why don't you complain under a political video, one where people will actually give a shit?

  • @NYanarchy08 Ok, my apologies. I just say what I feel needs to be said. I agree though, wrong video.

  • @StevenTylerIsMyLife No prob. Normally I'd love to debate this kind of stuff (I'm a member of the International Socialist Organization LOL), but we probably shouldn't fill up the vid for people who just want to discuss Batman.

  • @NYanarchy08 That's pretty cool and I agree. When it comes to politics I sometimes can't help but say something.

  • @StevenTylerIsMyLife Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've said it a hundred times. You're only adding to the pile and not changing a fucking thing. Middle class is getting fucked over BUT IT'S A FUCKING BATMAN VIDEO.

  • @Sixx0809 Your point being?

  • @StevenTylerIsMyLife My point being that you must be a fucking troll.

  • @Sixx0809 O ok, well when it comes to makeing a point we all know that "a fucking troll" really shows how intelligant one is. That was a good comment, because now I know how ignorant you truley are. Tell me if the words I'm using are to big.

  • @StevenTylerIsMyLife I don't even want to hear it from a stupid fucker who can't spell "Intelligent." It isn't Intelligant. Tell me if the words I'M using are too big.

  • @Sixx0809 O well I believe there are such things as a typo. And how can the words you're using be to big if I used the exact ones. I used intelligent just like you soo..they're not to big........?? And what exactly are you trying to accomplish with these comments about how I'm "a stupid fucker" our you trying to "gain" power over me or something? Does it make you feel special to attack someone through the internet?

  • @StevenTylerIsMyLife Not when there's atleast 5 in one post there ain't... As for that, I wouldn't want power over such an insignificant stain upon the earth. And, it only makes me feel special to attack morons who talk about Obama on a Batman soundtrack video.

    Enough of this, I don't have to answer to someone as insignificant to my life as you.

  • @StevenTylerIsMyLife

    Yes, I know what Socialism means. Socialism is the practice of government-owned industry, as opposed to capitalism (citizen-owned industry). What I fail to understand though, what with all the ways Capitalism is fucking up America, is how Obama injecting a little Socialism into our life is a bad thing.

  • stop giving zimmer all the credit, james newton howard did this.

    amazing and truely powerful piece

  • my band hass to play this in school

  • Joker: I believe that whatever doesn't kill you... only makes you... *lifts face mask* stranger...

  • I believe in Harvey Dent, too!

  • Although I rarely listen to orchestral film soundtracks at all this song doesn't cease to amaze me!

  • This song is Extraordinary...Hans Zimmer is the best soundtrack's composer!

    I hope he will write also the batman 3 soundtrack!!

  • This bit was by James Newton Howard, Hans did more of the action scenes. So James got to do all the dramatic and emotion filled music.

  • Yess! Thankyou for telling me this man!

  • i believe in chuck norris

  • I Believe in a better class of criminal

  • I believe in Christopher Nolan.

  • there shouldnt be a sequel to this movie

    and preserve its amazing status

  • @trollope4lyf2k8

    I'd be extremely surprised if a 3rd Nolan installment was not made. The amount of money they could potentially make is more of a drive for Warner Brothers, than preservation of a classic. I am torn because I definitely want more, but at the same time, I can't imagine the 3rd being even close to "The Dark Knight".

  • I can get credit toward a class for watching this movie at college! Yes! I'm so going!

  • This movie was full of epic quotes

  • Hans Zimmer does such wonderful pieces!!

  • It's not Zimmer, this piece was written by James Netwon Howard!

  • The entire soundtrack for the Dark Knight and Batman Begins was written By Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard. I think its why both these soundtracks are so good, because they are both amazing composers.

  • Although I get thumbed down because of correct information, again: The soundtrack were composed by both of them, but this piece in particular was composed by James.

    And honestly, you really can tell. It's really not Zimmer style...
