Solid Evidence That The Teaser For The Dark Knight Rises Was Indeed A FAKE!

YouTube's "PrettyMuchIt" has come across several pieces of damning evidence and solid proof that the recently leaked teaser trailer for The Dark Knight Rises is unfortunately bogus! Check it out...

The supposed teaser trailer for The Dark Knight Rises was met with a lot of scepticism when a bootleg version found its way online a few days ago. Many thought it was a fantastic tease for the highly anticipated movie from director Christopher Nolan, while equally as many decided it was a fake. The fact that it didn't play in any US theatres over the weekend and wasn't removed by Warner Bros. seemed to indicate it was a fake, but the truth was still unknown. Well, YouTube's "PrettyMuchIt" has done some digging and found some downright solid evidence that it is indeed far from official.






Go to the 0.34 second mark to see the Warner Bros/Lengendary Pictures Logo.






Click HERE to see the BBC video with the Bats used in the teaser trailer. (shown roughly at the 0.55 second point)




Add all that together, and I guess you're left with this!






So there you have it! I think it's pretty fair to say that is pretty conclusive! Either way, I think it's fair to say that the hoaxer did an impressive job of fooling us all...just not that good! Be sure to share your thoughts on this in the usual place!

With an all star cast which includes Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Michael Caine as Alfred Pennyworth, Garly Oldman as Jim Gordon, Tom Hardy as Bane, Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle, Joseph Gordon-Levitt as John Blake and Marion Cotillard as Miranda Tate, The Dark Knight Rises is set to be released on July 20, 2012!

Yes it looked shit and cheap but why believe this guy? He some "solid evidence" that evidence would be him telling us that is fake, so I take it this guy is Chris Nolan's son otherwise we just have to take his word for it? It may be all part of the viral campaign to get buzz going, they had a Girl with the Dragon Tattoo trailer recently "leak" whiched turned out to be part of the campaign for the movie. The guy in the video could have shown us the Vlash of the Titans opening, and the BBC bat footage instead he just tells us it's fake, groundbreaking stuff.

Well he is right if you look at it.

I did not find out about that "Dark Knight Rises" trailer till AFTER I saw Green Lantern, and if WB were to attach it to any movie, it would be either GL or Harry Potter.

I could see why GL cause they are DC Characters, but I would have known it was being shown before GL. Besides, I know lots of us saw GL, and well none of us saw the trailer in the theater right?

Also if it was the real trailer, wouldnt it have been trending on Twitter as well?

Nothing related to Nolan's Batman ever sucks, if it sucks it's fake. As simple as that.

The exaggerated cheering and whole "The Storm.... is coming... to Gotham" was not very well thought out, the opposite of Nolan's work.

Bring on Harry Potter 7 Pt. 2 so we can get the real trailer!!!

I havent watched his vid yet but I knew it was fake the moment the MPAA green screen came up. If it was Italian/shown in Italy it would have to had been seen by the Italian censors board to allowed to be seen in a cinema. NOT one starting with the green american MPAA board screen.

Not the fruit bat video the guys talking about, but one to watch nevertheless:

The font was enough to give it away. They didn't even try to make it resemble the Dark Knight Font, which is on everyones computer.

@Grif

when you sign for postal deliveries do you end it with "bring on the batman reboot"? lol

but in all seriousness the two things i didnt want for this film were a physical threat villain and a love interest... we got both. so i stopped worrying and just got on with anticipating the film.

admittedly i guess your just not anticipating it at all.

#1 who cares
#2 technically it still is a teaser. It did whatever WB would have done. It wouldn't have been the 1st time a few images were thrown together that had nothing to do with the film. Look at Tron Legacy. The Teaser that they showed had nothing to do with the film and it was created just to see if there would be a following for a sequel. They hadn't even green lighted the movie. As for the logo change over, Clash of Titans wasn't the first movie to have that change over AND where do you think they would have gotten footage of bats flying for the Batman movie...they would have used stock footage. The thing that pretty much screamed fake was the text.

@grif

I would so {frick} catwoman. Any Catwoman from any incarnation from series to film!

^^^ this guy gets it. Why are any of you bitching that its fake? The real deal will most likely be pretty similar.

I picked that right from the beginning. We spend so little time on the Warner Bros logo and the transition to the DC logo was shotty.

Who cares!!!!! All this speculation about "is the trailer real or fake" BS. We'll find out soon enough. Isn't the anticipation worth the wait? Com'on people. Let's let the tension build.

I thought it looked fake and it looked fan made. I hope Batman gets a new suit in this movie cuz I didn't really like his suit in the Dark Knight it looked to skinnny. I liked the suit on Batman Begins better.
