The Dark Knight Rises Teaser Trailer

The Dark Knight Rises teaser trailer was finally shown before Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 this past week. Just like the teaser trailers for Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, not a whole lot was shown in this trailer. It begins with a voice over from Ra's Al Ghul, talking about Mr. Wayne can become a "legend". Then the trailer cuts to Commissioner Gordon laying on a hospital bed speaking to Bruce/Batman. The gist of his speech to Bruce is that the "evil is rising" and that "Batman HAS to come back". After this we are shown footage from TDK of Batman on the bat cycle going up a ramp, and also  quick shots of Bane's face. The very last shot is EXTREMELY eery, with Batman standing alone in a room, then turns around and none other than Bane enters.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2

So that's it. Another favorite franchise of mine coming to a close.

I was lucky enough to attend the midnight screening of the final Harry Potter film at the Bob Bullock IMAX theater in Austin, Texas. My group arrived to the theater to get in line around 8:30, but upon arrival we were given a wristband with a number that signified our place in line, and that the line wouldn't form until 10:30... we come back at this time to get in line, where we waited until 12:20 just to be seated. They seriously need to rethink they're procedures for midnight releases because I've attended many in my 20 years of existence and this was by far the worst. We make our way to our seats and are treated to three trailers: Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol, Real Steel, and the Dark Knight Rises (which I will go in depth about in a later post).
