The Dark Knight Rises promotion starts in earnest with the first — and very stylish — teaser posters surfacing online today, via TheDarkKnightRises.com. That’s the film’s official website, so this is the genuine article, unlike that elaborate fake teaser trailer that popped up online a few weeks back.
Movie isn’t coming until summer 2012, but check out the full poster after the jump.

Christopher Nolan is a great director and his Batman movies made other comic book movies like a stupid joke

This poster has me wondering if Nolan is somehow going to incorporate the “No Man’s Land” arc where Gotham suffers a devastating earthquake…
July 12th, 2011 at 6:20 am
My thoughts exactly! Is Gotham City falling while the Dark Knight Rises?
July 12th, 2011 at 6:43 am
I agree with mbembet. And Aaron, you could be right. Man, this poster is UBER original. Graphic Design and branding at its very finest.

The No Man’s Land earthquake could work well. Assuming that Batman hasn’t been seen since the events of TDK, the earthquake would be a prime opportunity for having “The Dark Knight rise” to save Gotham. I guess one would replace Lex Luthor with Ra al Ghul for the purpose of this story. Although I don’t know how Catwoman plays in to this.

Can’t wait. Personally I think it’s a little premature to jump to conclusions about the movie just because of a cool poster. Nolan will make a great movie with a wonderful, original story (I hope…). In Nolan I trust.

The first two Nolan movies disappointed me, so I think I’ll try this one via bootleg or torrents. Cool poster though.

I seriously doubt Nolan will take the Cataclysm-No Man´s land route… Remember there´s a massive Arkham breakout, so I think this poster is an analogy of the crumbling Gotham after such a terrible event. First teaser poster is a win, can´t wait for the first trailer.

Anyone else notice the rock that’s a little to coincidentally shaped like the Superman logo on the left side?
July 12th, 2011 at 10:52 am
Got to agree about the Design of it, but not woth your use of the word “Uber” unless you are German. But yeah the Negative Space Bat-Symbol is a stroke of genius, whoever does the posters for Nolan’s movies makes me insanely jealous of his skills as a Graphic Designer.

I love Nolan’s Bat-films, but if you didn’t tell me it was for the next Batman movie, I’d assume that was an image from some deleted scene from Inception.

@ PCRookie…I noticed that too.
July 12th, 2011 at 11:40 am
Maybe what we’re seeing is the disastrous white cloud of the Anti-matter universe that’s come to destroy Earth-(whatever).
July 12th, 2011 at 12:37 pm
Yeah…and to defend Gotham from the cloud of anti-matter the Guardians of the Universe give him a Green Lantern’s ring… Ta-da!
July 12th, 2011 at 2:55 pm
um…I don’t get it…what’s the connection to “Rises”?
July 12th, 2011 at 6:30 pm
@ PCRookie: hmmm… rock shaped like superman logo… could be… here’s hoping that DC *finally* gets wise and follows after Marvel’s idea of having movies interwoven together… and maybe, just maybe… work toward a Justice League movie!
July 13th, 2011 at 12:09 pm
The city being destroyed is just a metaphor, I doubt it will actually happen in the film, the same way Batman never burned a giant bat-sign into a building in TDK…
July 14th, 2011 at 4:28 am
Mission Impossible Looks crazy i saw the preview a couple of week ago when wish to transforms that maybe the film from the the wintertime.
