I remember when the poster for The Dark Knight debuted featuring fairly direct reference to 9/11 and terror – the tagline was “Welcome to a world without rules.” Matt Brown reminds us that Nolan’s films have often featured architecture since his budgets crossed north of $100M. The Dark Knight Rises promises much more of the mayhem of Chicago destruction (probably more interesting in the thematic department than Transformers 3) with its image a city crumbling on a macro scale.
I wondered if you’d use this for the Friday One-Sheet this week.
I like it a lot. Even if I did see someone post it with a unicorn pencilled over the bat (head with horn on the top right) and now I can’t help seeing that.
Yeah that looks great. The teaser contains a similar image too (from what I could make out at least from the crappy bootleg). I still need to rewatch Dark Knight. When I caught it at the theatre I liked it, but didn’t salivate over it as much as most.
David, yeah I agree. I like the movie alright, but it’s one of the most overrated films of all time.
Maybe the unicorn is a thinly veiled BLADE RUNNER reference? It looks not just like a unicorn, but an ORIGAMI-unicorn.
I am just excited to see Pittsburgh represented in the film. What an awesome opportunity for the city. And no, I did not try to be an extra. Over 10,000 people showed up to the extras call, although 3,000 were selected.
Yeah, I see the unicorn too. LOL!
