The Dark Knight Rises’ Theatrical Trailer
Stand up, remove your caps and pay respect to the theatrical trailer for Christopher Nolan‘s highly anticipated conclusion to the Batman trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises,
finally online in an official form. This extended glimpse into the July
20 release includes none of the prologue footage that wowed audiences
in IMAX, instead focusing on a rising tension in a peaceful Gotham City
that will throw characters played by Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway, Gary Oldman, Michael Caine, Joseph Gordon Levitt, Marion Cotillard and Matthew Modine
into the fight of their lives. They all appear in this trailer, along
with Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward in a football scene
that looks beyond massive.
The time has come. The fire rises. Check out the trailer below.

If you were lucky enough to catch the first six minutes of The Dark Knight Rises
in IMAX, this trailer might feel slightly underwhelming. But not in a
bad way. The scope of that first scene is pretty incredible and while
you feel size in this trailer, it’s more about the size of the story.
Nolan stays away from a lot of huge money shots and instead opts for a
more pensive, slower trailer, beginning with the National Anthem and
giving us just a taste of how Gotham City has changed since the end of The Dark Knight.
Bruce Wayne looks out of place, Commissioner Gordon has fallen out of
favor, Selina Kyle has something bad on her mind Bane has a master plan
that includes putting a huge crater in the middle of Heinz Field. What
the heck is going on there? Did you think those effects looked good?
The best thing about this trailer is that it shows all new footage
but doesn’t give away anything. Can you legitimately tell us what is
happening in this movie after watching these two minutes? Probably not.
And that’s what a trailer should do.
Did this trailer live up to your high expectations?
