Glad you posted this. I can't do it from my phone.

First half of this trailer is beautiful.

I like the first half of the trailer as well. The editing was really nice.

Still one of my most anticipated movies of year.

[gangsta_795]

This movie is going to be so EPIC!

Yeah, it's good. For me I like the ambience. Quiet build with precise lines of dialogue can be just as powerful and even better than say starting a trailer off hot and heavy (i.e. explosions). Bane having great clarity here is really good. You get the sense of his strength and intelligence.

Anyway, I'm geeking out as you can tell.

He might end up being my favorite villain in Nolan's Batman trilogy.

[RedDragon7]

That's not bad in a sense. Ideally a trilogy like this would have a great villain in each movie. So in their own right, each one is superb.

I personally love the phsychologically destroyed Joker and the fact that he would carry virtually nothing, not be physically intimidating, and still be able to take down the city practically single handed. His personality was fascinatingly off the wall.

I love this shot:

[Sylar]

aww no this is all pointing to one thing

[THUGGEDOUT]

Not a bad trailer, Nolan better have made Anne Hathaway do perverted movements in the catsuit damnit!

[DreDayDetox]

Get some wide close-ups of Catwoman bending over, or a nod to Batman and Robin with cuts of her putting on her tight, latex bodysuit. That will certainly make the Dark Knight rise.

Finally.

A trailer that makes Bane sound more intelligent. The fact is, Bane is batman's most dangerous enemy, because of his obvious physical strength, and extreme brilliance. And I'm glad Nolan shows batman being defeated severely by bane, just how it happens in the comics.

it does look pretty mental

[brebaz]

I want to go to the premiers. I'll probably see this movie 5-6 times easy!

[Dave-The-Rave]

I just can't take Bane seriously..he looks nowhere near as menacing as The Joker.

[RedDragon7]

I could flip the table on you:

Joker = clown
Bane = Hannibal Lecter

If we're looking at appearances.

[Montevista]

The trailers for Batman Begins and The Dark Knight all had the ending shots for each film (Batman gliding toward the audience and Batman driving into the distance on the Batpod), I'm curious if they've included the last shot of this film here?

[SchaffinOSX]

Looks fantastic. This will be one of the few movies I go to see in theaters. Cannot wait.

I'll be honest: I got going a little just seeing her do that roundhouse kick in the trailer

[Funeralfog]

i seriously still think the riddler would be a better villain, a sick fuck who murders people and leaves riddles or whatever would be great. but oh well, about time for a new batman anyways, get Keaton out of his nursing home

[jlippone]

Will check on blu-ray when it comes, somehow haven't really got into Nolans films.
Hoping that the movie is more about Batman than the DK was.
