Shall We Start the Morning With a New Batman Trailer?

Yes, we shall!

The latest, and I think last, trailer for The Dark Knight Rises hit the Internet today, and boy oh boy is it…underwhelming. I dunno, maybe it’s just me, but none of these trailers have filled me with any excitement. Or maybe it’s just my extreme excitement for The Avengers this week. The Dark Knight Rises looks cool, and I have no doubt that it’s probably going to be an amazing film, but I’m just not feeling it yet.

Am I the only one?

This trailer gives us more Catwoman than we’ve seen before, plus a larger look at Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s John Blake character. So hopefully you enjoy both of those. More Bane too! The movie comes out on July 18.

Full Dark Knight Rises Movie Trailer!

The first full length movie trailer for The Dark Knight Rises was released on the Internet today, and it’s…pretty cool. As I mentioned only a few days ago, I haven’t been wowed by a movie trailer in a long time, and this one does not break that streak. It’s uninspiring. I don’t get chills watching this trailer. It just sort of throws a bunch of characters and potential catch phrases at us. And the thing with the football field looks…fakeish.

Anyway, watch for yourself:

Neither Bane or Catwoman (who is only seen as Selina Kyle in this trailer) have much of a presence. Neither one comes off as menacing or memorable, like the Joker from The Dark Knight. And we barely see any Batman at all in the trailer. There are a bunch of characters we don’t know, something political to do with Commissioner Gordon and then just vague shots of Bane in his less than stellar mask/costume.

Not gonna lie, I’m disappointed. Still, I’m sure it’s going to be an awesome movie!
