The Dark Knight faces his most ruthless foe: the Dorky Weatherman. »

Of course, no one will ever confuse Al Roker with the concept of high journalistic standards, but Erik from Cinematical is right on the money when he suggests that Roker seems more than a little out of his element on a set visit to The Dark Knight:
