The Dark Knight Rises Prologue video montage

Many have seen The Dark Knight Rises Prologue attached to IMAX screenings of Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol or otherwise. If you're one of the lucky few, then you probably know that after the initial presentation ends, a video montage plays that teases clips and scenes that will appear in the final product that opens in theaters later this July. Via Comic Book Movie and Vimeo, a very clear video of said montage has gone up and online for the world to see! Check it out below.

The Dark Knight Rises: Operation Early Bird is a go...

Operation: Early Bird is a go...

And it's simply relaying coordinates via a broadcast system found in www.thedarkknightrises.com that shows the locations of IMAX theaters around the world.

Yes, this particular viral marketing campaign event launched by Warner Bros. is simply giving off locations worldwide where viewers can catch the 6 minute prologue of "The Dark Knight Rises". The countdown at www.operationearlybird.com has expired, and in its place is a map ala google maps that you can use in conjunction with the numbers broadcasted at www.thedarkknightrises.com to find out locations of said IMAX theaters near your area (at random though).

This is kind of a letdown as I was expecting a new theatrical trailer of TDKR instead, but I hear that one wil be premiering soon enough, and it's clocked in at the 2:06 mark. Stay tuned for more updates, and visit the sites above for more on the Viral Marketing Campaign.

The Dark Knight Rises premieres in theaters worldwide on July 20, 2012! Be sure to catch the TDKR prologue itself next week as it airs properly in 70mm IMAX screenings of Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol!

The Dark Knight Rises: New info surfaces about Bane and 6 minute prologue

New information via Rama Screen, also posted in Comic Book Movie and Enewsi, has surfaced online that reveals more detailed information on the role of Bane (Tom Hardy) is and how the 6 minute prologue will play out for The Dark Knight Rises. This is reportedly insider information, and the person who wishes to remain anonymous has seen the prologue that's going to be attached with 70mm IMAX screenings of Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol. Until it's confirmed, take these bits of info as rumors for the meantime, but it sure is interesting to read about. Possible SPOILERS for those who wish to keep their minds, so if I were you, turn away from this post now.

The Dark Knight Rises IMAX Prologue gets rated!

It's already known and confirmed that The Dark Knight Rises will be getting a prologue attached to IMAX Screenings of Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, but Box Office Mojo has reported that the segment finally has an MPAA rating up, and it's going to be "PG-13" for "some violence. It's a forgone conclusion that the movie will be violent and full of action scenes, but what the prologue will showcase is still anyone's guess at this point. Regardless of the numerous set photos and videos making their way online, I have faith that director Christopher Nolan will still deliver a product that will still surprise us all.

TDKR Prologue attached to Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol (Updated)

Update: Slash Film updates that story has been confirmed, and the run time is 6 minutes, not 8.

Big Batman film news has arrived, but as far as official confirmation goes, take this one as a rumor first.

Back in 2007, while things were steadily building for The Dark Knight, director Christopher Nolan was wise enough to appease the hunger of fans worldwide by attaching a "Prologue" piece of the Batman Begins sequel into IMAX screenings of Will Smith's "I Am Legend". Obviously, the move was a smart one, and enough to generate buzz around the world, giving viewers a taste of the opening sequence of the film, as well as what Heath Ledger's Joker would be like in action. Sadly, the actor passed away tragically just a month after the prologue was shown, and the combination of that and his sudden demise garnered more interest for The Dark Knight, which inevitably grossed out the box office upon its release on July 18, 2008.


Flash forward some years later, and now similar news is buzzing up for the next and final Christopher Nolan Batman film, The Dark Knight Rises. While this has yet to be confirmed by official sources, movie news site Slash Film has posted up a rumor that another "Prologue" sequence will be shown, attached to IMAX screenings of Tom Cruise's next Mission: Impossible flick "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol". It will reportedly run for 6 minutes, so whether or not this will be an opening sequence like TDK is still up in the air. Since Nolan shot certain sequences of TDK in IMAX which included the opening sequence/ prologue of that movie, the same should apply to the 6 minute footage from TDKR that will be bundled with Ghost Protocol. Hopefully this will get official confirmation sooner than later, and you can bet I'm going to line up in my local IMAX theater just to get a taste of things to come on July 20 next year!
