Michael Bay’s original screenplay for The Dark Knight
By fred | July 8, 2008
Okay, so this is not really about TV, but it’s too good to pass on. I assume you all already heard about this little movie called The Dark Knight, something to do with a man with a cape or something.
Anyways, apparently Michael Bay had written a first script for that movie on his own, a script that was - for some unexplainable reason - rejected by the studios. This sounds quite hard to believe, especially when you read the few excerpts of choice that clearly indicates this would have been a monstrous hit, Michael Bay-style !
It’s filled with awesome explosions and insightful characterization… “We pan to a beautiful woman: platinum blonde with a huge rack. She is the hottest woman in the world, but she wears glasses because she is also the smartest woman in the world.”
This is absolutely hilarious, so whether or not you’re interested in the movie, whatever you may think of Michael Bay, go check it out now, you don’t want to miss this!

Um…this is obviously a stitch-up.
Michael Bay is a director, not a screenplay writer.
Yes, it is obviously a joke… And an hilarious one, don’t you think?
It’s got to be a joke. There’s no way that could be a real script. I read it, and it’s not even a plausible film. I think at one time it said something like, “There’s an explosion as Batman and the Joker shoot missiles, then an explosion inside the explosion with tanks, then Batman and the Joker eject out of their vehicles and into two helicopters, which shoot out missiles that collide with an explosion…”
Yeah. It’s really dumb.
A poor attempt at a Michael Bay: too much internet jokes, and they weren’t even remotely funny at all.
can anyone help me? i’m looking for the screenplay of the dark knight…
