If you add up everything that Warner Brothers has released this week, it adds up to a whopping 11 pieces of new art for The Dark Knight Rises. Maybe they just had a wealth of stuff laying around the office and just wanted to clear it out? Or they think some of this stuff will make for great merch for eager fans to buy off Amazon or something. Either way, nothing they do is going to diminish the anticipation for it. But also I think there's little they can do to hype it further without giving too much away. On the heels of yesterday's release of four new banners for Christopher Nolan's film come two more, both with the ever present "The Legend Ends" tagline.
Also, we've learned that footage from The Dark Knight Rises will be shown at the MTV Movie Awards on June 3rd. I suffered through that piece of crap show last year for a sneak peek at some movie footage, and now they're forcing me to do it again. Damn you, MTV!
The Dark Knight Rises stars Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway, Gary Oldman, Marion Cotillard, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Juno Temple, Morgan Freeman, and Michael Caine. Look for it to hit theaters on July 20th.
