The Dark Knight Rises The Dark Knight Rises Info Hunters Thread - - - Part 21

So this confirms a TDKR viral campaign, right?

Because why would they start off with something so intriguing and mysterious...and not a Bat logo/TDKR/2012 like most other movies.

So creepy, just a creepy black screen with that chanting. Like Lovecraft or something.

It's so obvious now.
It's the Cult of C'thulhu.

That's why Universal canned Del Toro's Mt of Madness. Nolan got there first.

I think so. The Bane reveal was a viral campaign, hopefully they keep them coming!

Does anyone recall the timeline of viral stuff from TDK? That would give us a frame of reference for when we can expect new things.

I remember there were several things that preceded TDK: Joker mosaic, "see you in December", the Long Halloween pumpkin...I just can't remember how much time passed between each one.

Can't really say much about the virals, but we got the first picture of the Joker on May 21. Four years later, we got the first picture of Bane on May 20. Things seem to be on schedule.

 

[Spideyfan93]

I remember stuff happening quite frequently...like once or twice a month. The interactive games and stuff(like the Gotham newspaper I remember WELL) took quite a while for me to look through...then I saw the corner that could be turned...etc.

 

[TheBatman072]

LOL that's funny.

Thank you for telling me you thought that was funny after you gave me an "lol".

Then vacate the spoilers forum.

That doesn't make sense.

Why would I vacate the spoiler forum if I'm willing to wait for a possible spoiler or further info about the chanting to be revealed?

Really wish I had my sig options so I could just point to this stuff. lol. Seriously, most forums I don't even give a damn about sigs, but I have a blog that says all this! lmao.

ADD: And yes, CthuluBane ftw.

chris nolan is trending on yahoo

interesting

 

[Goku Goes Crazy]

Sorry to post another similar thing guys but this seemed strange. Noticed on my wall on twitter again thefirerises posting the link to an account called @thefoolcat. This account also doesn't exist and because of the name it seemed interesting. Again I wanted to point this out because on the wall it shouldn't show thefirerises sending the link to all the users it sends it to but with these accounts it has done. Screen print included but again I don't think there's any difference to the photo.

You're right that is weird. "thefoolcat" sounds like something to do with Catwoman. That's weird. Why would it send messages to certain twitter accounts....especially ones that apparently don't even exist.

Well, we got the first Joker pic via the viral in May; exactly on point with the reveal of Bane. But the next taste we got was at Comic Con in July, which was also via viral; it was the teaser and a second Joker pic; the one with him pressing his knife against Rachel's cheek. So, judging by that, the next taste we get is July. Hopefully the same thing: a teaser and another pic.

Also, remember the first pic of Joker we got was a test photo for make-up purposes. The one we got of Bane seems to be the official look we'll see in the film; it looks like the pic is taken on set.

 

[Boom]

But remember that we got our first photos of Batman and The Batpod in June.

Though those were completely non-related to the viral campaign.

THE PUMPKIN!!! Those were some good times.

 

[TheVileOne]

This can only mean that Batman and Catwoman are going to have a date after Tweeting each other.

Fire Rises is Batman's twitter handle and fool cat is Catwoman's. They will take the next step in their relationship through Twitter.

There solved it.

 

[brainsmasher]

yeah, I remember that- but I believe those were leaked.

 

[Boom]

No. Those two photos were officially released.

Though we did get a bunch of leaked photos.

**** that pumpkin.

I've prettified and formatted it here:

Granted, it looks all off on Firefox on my Mac. I will have to get onto fixing it now since a lot of people are probably going to be seeing it...

And yes, I have the link to ALL the TDK viral stuff in my sig.

Yup.

 

[redfirebird2008]

**** that pumpkin.

You have a fetish for pumpkins?

 

[Bat-Gasm]

With the fire rises being the twitter account. It really makes me think that the color scheme will be red. Even though Nolan is red/green color blind.

 

[Mako]

**** that pumpkin.

You don't like Rory? Is it because of his disfigurement ?

I know and like your link, but as far as a straight up timeline goes I find the wikibruce one more convenient since it's a simple list. Yours is better if you want to see what happened exactly.

I was also referring to the discussion of the similarities in timeline, which I have at my infant blog http://dkrisesarg.blogspot.com/ amongst other things.
