My excitement is decreasing. If nothing is out tonight, then i'll loose interest big time, especially since I've seen some of the frames, so theres none of that WOW factor. And WTF WB? Nolan likes to showcase his work at the best quality, why ruin the trailer like this?

I don't know why but this frame reminds me the last shot of Neo flying through the screen in the Matrix...

There's nothing stopping you going into the trailer blind if you want to.

Couldn't have summed it up better...

And with that I'm out for a while... waiting hours for 20 frames of the exact same image all day wears thin.

The goal is timed, probably to release next monday. Which is fine because we all knew it would come out on that day, but to show us little snippets of it is the biggest c*cktease ever.

Sucks there's no Knoxville locations. You might as well just hang out at East Town Mall.

This is like a person who accidentally shoots himself in the foot and then tries to blame the gun shop that sold him the weapon.

Can't be sure but I hope that is the shot of the Bat showing off its maneuvering capabilities that we got in the footage description.

That's a ridiculous argument considering thus far the viral has been relatively harmless to people wanting to enjoy without spoiler material. It's not like with set reports or leaks where you actually go in to read said spoiler and then complain, this is the actual studio going viral (i.e getting lots of average joes to join in) with a game that practically spoils the imagery of the trailer before you see it. Also, you of all people should know on a forum like this you can't exactly stick around when some kind of 'official promotion' comes around and expect to avoid it... this is official promotion, but it's irresponsible in the sense it reveals too much.

Screw you nolan and wb you ruined my life.

I'm having A LOT of trouble believing Nolan actually approved of WB using this method to reveal the last trailer. This method literally goes against everything he preaches regarding the unparalleled quality delivered by the use of IMAX cameras and, of course, about not being spoiled before watching the final product of something. How could random, tiny and horrid quality screen caps possibly do this trailer justice?

Did you read the CinemaCon descriptions? A lot of the shots in this trailer are from that footage, so it was already spoiled to a huge extent by those descriptions.
