Bingo. I was told first hand by UA's Trademark Attorney that there were plans for official merchandise in the future.MooCriket said:
He also mentioned they had no idea how popular these items would be with the fans, but it's obvious now and they intend on capitalizing on it.

Thanks for the update chewbaccadoll. That's pretty cool that UA is going to be making actual shirts and stuff from the movie, assuming the lawyer was telling the truth. They'd be stupid to not try making something off of it.

Damn. Sucks for me, seeing as I don't like UA clothing... Oh well.chewbaccadoll said:
I have a DKR crew shirt now, it's really cool with the Bat symbol made up of flags of all the countries they filmed in and dinosaur on the front.
May make a nice Batman themed replacement shirt?
I'd like to see this crew shirt as well! Cast & Crew shirts are my specialty!
Here's the logo on the back, underneath it says 'Dark Knight Rises', on the front is the Magnus Rex dinosaur.
If there's any interest in this shirt I'd surely take it on... AA, if you supply me with some hires imagery I'd work out a deal with you like before if the run took off.
Love cast & crew shirts!
I have all the art scanned already.
I would like a few of these, what's the minimum for a run? Can you start an interest thread?
Because of the amount of colors, I'd print this 4CP and there's really no minimum for that method, but the base cost goes up. Plus it's 2 sided.
Essentially, I would make very little profit (not that that's a problem) if I stick to my standard pricing unless there was substantial interest, but I'm always up for facilitating a run for those who really want one. It's not always about the money.
As far as an interest thread, I'd need to show a mock-up of the design, and since it's a replica of a cast & crew shirt I'd like to show an actual picture of the original, so people know what they are getting a reproduction of....
I know I didn't know this shirt existed, and I'm sure others didn't either!
That's the skinny. I'm sure if an interest thread with just a shot of the actual shirt was put up interest could be determined with the standard "pending final artwork".

Here's the full shirt. Magnus Rex was the code-name for DKR, the dinosaur logo is on all the crew chairs, call sheets and crew passes I have managed to get hold of.

Cool, I'll use these as reference for potential sign-ups in a replica run in an interest thread.aliensarchive said:
I'll throw it up later tonight.

When can we expect... | Facebook
I posted on their facebook page to get their attention. I plan on finding other means to badger them, but for now, I want to get them to see that we're interested and waiting.
EDIT: Called UA today. They told me to call back tomorrow and talk to marketing.

They made a post on my topic.
Thanks for the feedback, guys. We MIGHT... just MIGHT... have something in the works. Keep your eyes peeled.
I was at the Heinz Field set with my cousin and some friends and it kinda sucked as far as the conditions, it was winter in the movie, but summer in the real world and they needed us wearing at least some winter clothing for the shots. I got a T-Shirt, a medium, and I love it. They are under armor brand and feel great to wear. The shooting was fun as we picked the perfect spot on the right side of the field goal on the side opposite of the main entrance and they filmed two important scenes, the national anthem, which we stood for, and the Bane Goons coming out with guns in the stands, everyone acted extremely scared for it. Some of the steelers gave us a thumbs up after everyone was leaving outside the stadium because we were trying to be as energetic as possible while keeping ourselves believable, so we could be filmed. I had so much fun.
:Edit:
We also can't wait to look for ourselves in the movie!
