FAN MADE: Amazing Opening Title Sequence For THE DARK KNIGHT RISES

Check out this amazing fan made opening credit sequence for The Dark Knight Rises. Similar in style to the opening of David Fincher's Se7en, we can only hope that Christopher Nolan has something equally as impressive as this in store for us.

It was okay... Could have picked a better track.

What makes you think Nolan will utilize a title sequence? If you recall, he simply used the blue-fiery bat for "The Dark Knight."

That was pretty awesome.

this is not nolan style....this opening is so cliche...looks like some tv cop drama sequence/montage.
SFCamerica
SFCamerica - 1/26/2012, 11:06 AM
Doesn't quite fit with Nolan's Bay mythology however.

That's pretty damn cool, but they forgot Michael Caine name too lol

this is pretty cool. i dug it.

and yeah, there was no credit sequence during Begins or TDK, so there almost definitely will not be one this time around either.

pretty impressive...it would fit the riddler more and chris Nolan doesnt use opening sequences for batman.

Xeriath - 1/26/2012, 11:09 AM
I thought it was pretty cool, but Nolan really doesn't have a track record of using an opening sequence for his bat films. Begins and TDK just quickly flashed the Bat logo and then the movie started.

Impressive. It's not a reinvention of the wheel, but it kind of makes me think of pointalism. There's a lot of hard work that goes into putting out a quality product.

Forensic'y (which is nice) - but not Batman'y enough for my tastes. Also a little bit too long, the beat got repeatitious and annoying after a while.

On the whole a great creative effort though!, me likes!.

fantastic! kinda reminds me of the se7en-intro

THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - 1/26/2012, 11:22 AM
that's a really cool opening sequence but it wouldn't be used with Nolan's films
DoctorSnide
DoctorSnide - 1/26/2012, 11:23 AM
Obviously you haven't seen the Prologue. The part where It's Ice Slowly cracking to vaguely for a Bat. This doesn't fit in his world. Those sort of openings are lame anyway. Just start the movie. Let me read the credits when it's over. Nolan knows what he's doing.


SO let's not hope he does something like this.

imnotahero - 1/26/2012, 11:32 AM
It would be amazing if it made any sense. Why is he dipping pictures in water and cracking ice?

I hate it when my creepy darkroom ices up like that, so annoying.

This would have been the shiz in about 1995.

JohnWilbanks - 1/26/2012, 11:33 AM
While it is cool, I seriously hope it is nothing like that. That is the exact opposite of a Christopher Nolan movie...

Nolan doesn't do opening credit sequences.
He hasn't done it for the first two Batman films, I don't think he will start now.

Nice work. too bad it doesn't fit the tone of the film. Soundtrack choice could have been better. Might work for a TV show.

Music doesn't really fit. The actual sequence reminds me of Insomnia for some reason

Really well done. I could see this being used as a tv series opening. Me likey.

I really dug this opening sequence; too bad it doesn't fit with Nolan's themes. Nice video, though!
bcom77
bcom77 - 1/26/2012, 11:56 AM
Nicely done but totally the wrong for the style of the current Batman films. I like how they start with just a quick flash of the bat symbol then go straight into the movie and you don't see the title card until the closing credits.

Dated and hokey.

nice, but there is no way Chris Nolan's gonna do something like this.

yeimsick - 1/26/2012, 12:14 PM
Didn't like, was a little over dramatic for a batman movie. Good job tho

"we can only hope that Christopher Nolan has something equally as impressive as this in store for us"

what a stupid statement. the opening is the airplane bane sequence. just like The Dark Knight, there will be no "opening credits"

duh

Micheal Caine's name was actually the second name listed in the credits.

Over the top, but not bad. We all know there won't be any credits at the begining though.

Josh clearly has not watched Batman Begins, Dark Knight, Inception, or The Dark Knight Rises prologue. There t

I've seen all three opening sequences. Why would I all of a sudden HOPE it's like this? lol
