Help: "Dark Knight" cameo

I know this forum is already inundated with Dark Knight threads, but I'm looking for some help. In the honor guard scene (and I'll leave it at that to keep from spoiling anything for those who've yet to see the film), I could swear that I saw Pat Hingle in police dress uniform in the front section in the establishing shot. I've Googled "Dark Knight" and "cameo," but all that seems to come up are references to Senator Patrick Leahy. I also thought I saw Ludicris in an orange jumpsuit on one of the two ferries. Anyone who can confirm either of these--or at least tell me I'm not the only one who thought they saw either of these--please do so.

Pat Hingle just has that, "Old Fat White Cop" look so I can see where the poster may be confused in that scene.

Discussed in the other thread, he was the one spouting out the one liners "NOT GOOD!" and such during the chase.

Yep, he was the one with all the dialogue in the SWAT van sequence where the Joker is trying to kill Dent.

What's weird is a few us the night before we saw The Dark Knight were talking about a line from Boiler Room that led to a discussion about Nicky Katt(since he uttered the line) and how he always plays a-holes. Lo and behold, he shows up the next night in The Dark Knight and is playing a good guy.

BTW, a little more useless trivia for ya. Nicky Katt and Senator Leahy were both in Crapman & Robin and The Dark Knight. That's about all those two movies have in common.

Judging by his "performance," Katt must have thought he was still in that one.

Oh come on. He had one of the best lines in the movie:

"What is that, a Bazooka?!"

Plus he still kicked ass on Boston Public.

And the debate about my sanity continues. Thanks, though; I appreciate not being alone on this! (Thanks also to reubs82.)

Your Not Crazy! I saw him too! He stands out as he is surrounded by younger cops even though it was only a side-on view

It's possible you're confusing Pat Hingle with Joseph Mazurk, who's also heavy-set and has a moustache.

he's probably most memorable for his role is dazed and confused..."kick some ass and drink beer, looks like we're almost out of beer" and for his role in planet terror...he had the fucked up tongue and later got his arm removed with the bone saw. i hear he's an asshole in real life and likes to name drop.

He played the role of Mike Donovan's son on "V: The Final Battle". How's that for a groin canoe?

Man I HATED that kid. I don't care if he was converted or not - Mike should have smacked the shit out of him repeatedly.
