A little Trouble in Hong Kong November 7th, 2007

For the Hong Kong IMAX fly over scene Warner Broth­ers asked busi­nesses in the neigh­bor­hood to leave on their lights to pro­vide a stun­ning sky­line on film. How­ever Earth­Times (via Bat­MovieNews) report that 80% of the 60 com­pa­nies approached turned off their lights as per usual, pre­sent­ing The Dark Knight with a “blackout”.

The Hong Kong Stan­dard also report that there was no sign of the planned low fly­ing air­craft for the film­ing event,

C-130 air­craft and two heli­copters were due to take to the skies over Vic­to­ria Har­bour yes­ter­day dur­ing the film­ing of Bat­man: The Dark Knight.

But, so far, there has been no sign of the caped hero.

How­ever, no cause for this absence has been pro­vided and it may just be a result of re-scheduling.
