without any credit or source, it looks like fishing for attention

Well, that's encouraging.

The trailers do it enough justice. I would imagine people saying they enjoyed it more than TDK wouldn't be much of a stretch. They'll definitely be more action here.
TDK was good but was dragging out a bit toward the middle.

I'm just anxious to see if I can spot my son in the crowd scenes at Heinz Field where he was an extra during the filming there. He said he spent eight hours in the sun jumping out seats in an imaginary panic, so I hope his efforts were worth it.

Too bad they won't be showing the footage of Bill Cowher making his remarks to the Pittsburgh crowd, then trying to get off the field by walking right through the restricted area where all the explosives had been set for the scene where the field blows up and the crew trying to chase him down. That was pretty funny stuff.

My guess is, at the URL on the bottom-right of the .gif (same place I just got this one):

They're from the newest TV spot (or very similar to):

The Dark Knight Rises - TV Spot #9 Throttle (HD) - YouTube

This newest cat woman could be this generation's Princess Leia! LOL

Heard The Dark Knight Rises is on track to beating Avengers for opening weekend sales, and it still has about 20 days left to promote.

I can imagine it happening, I was stoked for The Avengers, but I can't believe how excited I am for The Dark Knight Rises.

In the local cinema they have life size cut outs of Batman & Bane, already asked if I can have them when their done with them.

I can't wait to see how the end it too! I kind of hope that they have Bane break Batman or that they leave it open for someone else to carry on the story without having to do another reboot.

good luck. lot of people used to do that over here, and ask for some of the really cool posters etc ~ then the studios started getting p155y and the cinnies had to account for them all and hand them back. parently the studio were getting peeved at people flogging them on ebay and the like.

Yeah, when I went in originally they said they "couldn't see a problem why not" but they'd have to check with the manager. When I went in yesterday the manager told me they had to destroy them once they'd finished with them. Seems like a complete waste to me.

Are you guys saying Bane doesn't look huge in that blue jumpsuit?

I was wondering if somebody was going to mention the 27 seconds, well noted .

not to be sexist but i hope a good portion of that running time if following Catty as she walks to that batpod. what a *fabulous* hourglass. worthy of an iMax presentation all by itself. i hope they start about two miles away.

I couldn't help it!!

The official synopsis:

“It has been eight years since Batman vanished into the night, turning, in that instant, from hero to fugitive. Assuming the blame for the death of DA Harvey Dent, the Dark Knight sacrificed everything for what he and Commissioner Gordon both hoped was the greater good.

“For a time the lie worked, as criminal activity in Gotham City was crushed under the weight of the anti-crime Dent Act.

“But everything will change with the arrival of a cunning cat burglar with a mysterious agenda. Far more dangerous, however, is the emergence of Bane, a masked terrorist whose ruthless plans for Gotham drive Bruce out of his self-imposed exile. But even if he dons the cape and cowl again, Batman may be no match for Bane.”

Sooner or later this guy is going to get a bug in that purty mouth.
