DrMachakil is quickly becoming the king of mashups. Previously, the popular Youtuber cut together footage so that it appeared as though former wall-crawlers Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield sobbed at the sight of the first Spider-Man: Homecoming trailer; the Avenger felt threatened while viewing the latest Justice League trailer; Ben Affleck's Bruce Wayne met Agent Smith within the Matrix; and J.K. Simmons' J. Jonah Jameson bosses around Amy Adams' Lois Lane and Henry Cavill's Clark Kent.
His latest video is mashup of The Dark Knight (2008) and Die Hard with a Vengeance (1995), making it appear as though Batman's most infamous nemesis, The Joker (Heath Ledger), is having a phone conversation with suspended police officer Lt. John McClane (Bruce Willis), as well as McClane's reluctant partner Zeus Carver (Samuel L. Jackson) and anxious NYPD Inspector Walter Cobb (Larry Bryggman).
Reminder: I Am Heath Ledger documentary will premiere on April 23rd at the Tribeca Film Festival, then in select theaters on May 3rd. It'll then air May 17th on Spike.
The Dark Knight reunites director Christopher Nolan and star Christian Bale, who reprises the role of Batman/Bruce Wayne in his continuing war on crime. With the help of Lt. Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, Batman sets out to destroy organized crime in Gotham for good. The triumvirate proves effective, but soon find themselves prey to a rising criminal mastermind known as The Joker, who thrusts Gotham into anarchy and forces Batman closer to crossing the fine line between hero and vigilante.
Heath Ledger stars as archvillain The Joker, and Aaron Eckhart plays Dent. Maggie Gyllenhaal joins the cast as Rachel Dawes. Returning from Batman Begins are Gary Oldman as Gordon, Michael Caine as Alfred and Morgan Freeman as Lucius Fox.
