New WhySoSerious.com Page Emerges For ‘The Dark Knight’ Viral Marketing: /mausoleum

At 4 p.m. on Tuesday, a new code emerged from WhySoSerious.com and the viral folks at “The Dark Knight”. I received this code via e-mail from [email protected]:

I have outlined the letters in blue and created the image below.

Next, we must crack the code on a “precinct 12 evidence vault”.

First, we click on the dial and it zooms in so we can turn it and submit our guesses using the lever.

Once you zoom into the vault dial, a note with a clue is revealed by clicking it in the upper-left corner of your screen.

In the note, there are blood-stained letters. When added together, they spell “T-I-M-E | F-O-R | T-A-F-F-Y”. According to The Gotham Times, Johnny “Taffyface” Linata died at 7:38 a.m.

I have created a zoomed-in image and outlined in blue on page one of the newspaper where this was learned.

The text reads: “The butcher’s bill started at 7:38 a.m. when Maroni lieutenant Johnny ‘Taffyface’ Linata was killed by a…”

  • La Haine

    CHICAGO – With NATO protests about to descend on Chicago, “La Haine” seems to have as much power as it did on its release almost twenty years ago. It is a visceral, draining experience about class struggles, increased diversity in Paris, economic inequality, and unchanneled rage. In other words, it’s a perfect choice for a Criterion Blu-ray upgrade as the Occupy Movement prepares to descend on the Windy City.

  • One for the Money Blu-ray

    CHICAGO – With each passing year, Katherine Heigl’s claims about Judd Apatow’s sexism appear increasingly absurd. While Apatow is producing A-grade work from female filmmakers, such as “Bridesmaids” and HBO’s “Girls,” Heigl is portraying shallow ditzes who are susceptible to chauvinistic, overgrown adolescents. “The Ugly Truth,” “Killers,” “Life as We Know It” and “New Years Eve” is not a track record worth bragging about.
