The full trailer of The Dark Knight Rises was the best thing about going to see The Avengers, and this point, everybody should collectively give Christopher Nolan a blowjob of appreciation. This shit is going to be epic. Oh, and here's the new poster. I'm not sure if you tell by the words or the actual fire rising that a fire will rise or not. And the Dark Knight is also rising. Lots of things rising in this movie. Maybe they should just have put Batman on the poster in a hot air balloon so they could rise at the same time and all this wouldn't be so confusing.

Yep, just checked. Still hard.

The Dark Knight Rises - Prologue 6mn (Leaked) by Eklecty-City
The trailer and six-minute prologue for Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises leaked today. Don't look now, but I'm sitting on my couch in pajama pants with a hole in the thigh because of my raging hardon. Ladies?

Security seems very tight on The Dark Knight Rises set. Very tight. The Hollywood Reporter says:

Batman (Christian Bale) fights villain Bane (Tom Hardy) in new footage WPIX captured from The Dark Knight Rises' Pittsburgh set over the weekend. As The Huffington Post points out, the clip shows a brawl between the Gotham City Police and the Arkham Asylum inmates. Snow swirls all around as cops beat down inmates and Batman pushes Bane up the stairs. Local resident and extra Erin Giambelluca tells the Forest Hills-Regent Square Patch site that it was hot outside and extras drank tons of water to stay cool in their winter-weather costumes. "Right after the football scene ended, they did one explosion," she says. "It looked like pieces of grass all over the field to make it look like it was blown up while the players were on it, and we had to wear ear plugs for that. We had to rehearse and make sure we weren't smiling during that part."

Please keep in mind that this video hit online three days after Warner Bros. was forced to post an image of Anne Hathaway as Catwoman because pics taken by people just hanging out around the set were about to hit online. So in closing, if you want to shoot a movie that people can see two years before it comes out, Pittsburgh seems like a pretty good place to do that.

The first image of Anne Hathaway as Selena Kyle/Catwoman in The Dark Knight Rises was released today, and hopefully she's wearing Hello Kitty panties because that's the only way this picture would have anything that resembles something dealing with a cat.

UPDATE: Stuntwoman Cat!

UPDATE: See the HD version here.

If you're unlike me, you went to see the 20th Harry Potter movie this weekend and saw the teaser trailer to Christopher Nolan's final Batman film, The Dark Knight Rises. This of course was filmed inside a theater, so the quality looks pretty bad. But so do Gary Oldman and Gotham City. Warner Bros. really needs to do something about this.

Note: The "official version" of this trailer is set to be released later today. With "official" meaning you'll be able to see shit.

The new teaser poster for The Dark Knight Rises hit online yesterday, so yeah, here it is. The plot of the movie is a tightly kept secret, but if I had to guess I'd say it's about Batman fighting corrupt construction companies who don't build to code. Sounds exciting.
