If you didn’t catch the full-length official trailer for The Dark Knight Rises then you’ve been living under a rock…in another galaxy. Here it is again, above, to refresh your memory. A viral campaign led up to the unveiling of the exciting trailer as Batman geeks were sent on a scavenger hunt all over the country to help unveil the trailer frame by frame. Below are some teaser images from the viral site:
Last week, like true fanboys, we caught the midnight premiere of the indie film The Avengers. Relentless and fun stuff. It was by no means perfect like some have said but it was fairly damn wicked. Two weeks later and a billion dollars in the bank, it is the most successful movie ever made. Pro tip 1: see it in 2D, 3D is exhausting for the two acts of pure action. Pro tip 2: stay for the very ending of the credits. Shawarma.
This GQ piece about Joss Whedon‘s arduous path to mainstream recognition and pay dirt, The Geek Shall Inherit the Earth, is a must-read. As influential as he was with die-hards and his rabid cult following, he finally has the proper cachet to, not only greenlight high profile projects, but to also have these projects get a fair shake with the general public – and this talent carries an acumen, approach and attitude that richly deserves it. As they say, he’s a geek and fanboy at heart; he has that street cred’. Joss Whedon is my master now. The pop culture auteur penned an amusing and touching thank you letter to his longtime fans and supporters at Whedonesque, this is also a must-read.

They showed the Prometheus trailer in 3D before The Avengers. How do I put this? It was fucking amazing. I mean, we’ve been looking forward to it and hyping it up for a year but seeing it in 3D, at that scale, was unreal. It was dazzling.
