6 Min. Preview of ‘THE DARK KNIGHT RISES’ Confirmed for Dec. 16

Published on October 24, 2011, by Michael Haffner - Posted in Movie News 0

Rumors spread last week that a six minute preview of the highly anticipated The Dark Knight Rises would be attached with Mission: Impossible- Ghost Protocol. Yet, the question still lingered: Why would Paramount let Warner Bros. plug their film in front of their own? I guess rivalries only exist in sports. At any rate . . . The Dark Knight Rises will screen a six minute preview prior to IMAX screenings of the new M:I film. AMC has revealed that 70mm IMAX screens will show the exclusive footage beginning December 16 when the Tom Cruise vehicle bursts onto IMAX screens. Many will remember that this same tactic was employed when The Dark Knight’s beginning sequence was shown prior to I Am Legend. Also worth noting, after that initial sequence was shown before Legend, a new trailer was shown immediately following the clip. Will this happen once again? Either way, make sure that the IMAX screen in your area has the proper specs for the footage. Click HERE to see a list of theaters that are equipped.

Somewhere between growing up on a steady diet of Saturday morning trips to the local comic-book shop, collecting an unhealthy amount of action figures, and frequent viewings of Ray Harryhausen and Hammer Horror films, came forth a nerdy boy that was torn between journalism and the arts. In high school, Michael found himself writing a movie column for the school newspaper. Yet, he went on to get a BFA in Studio Art at Webster University. The battle between these two worlds has finally ceased with his current position as Managing Editor for DestroyTheBrain.com. When not writing about films, you can still find him discussing classic horror, collecting action figures, and reading Batman. Clearly, not much has changed.
