Project 880.

I'm pretty sure "You are not in Kansas anymore" qualifies.

No, seriously. WB is just trying too hard now. I bet they didn't even plan to put out a crap commercial like that until Avengers did so amazingly well at the box office. Avengers was successful for that stuff, but that is not how any of Nolan's "Batman" films have been made. Might as well get Schumacher back to direct if you want a clown fest.

So you're what I would sound like if I were more antagonistic. :lol It's a bit terrifying, actually.

 

[G-Fex]

It's the car right?

Chicks dig the car.

It's funny how little things like this can be great barometers.

Where the hell is that "not sure if serious" gif?

 

[Good Job Bob]

Avengers invented comedy in superhero movies; Whedon does it again, what a mastermind.

Yeah the idea is that Cameron coined it 880 because the movie should have catered to anyone between the ages of 8 to 80 years. It's just how blockbusters are written, keeping a wide audience demo in mind.

 

[Tookay]

Look at this clown fest guys.

 

[DMczaf]

Wait til the Batman+Catwoman Nickelback TV spot, then we'll see who has the last laugh!

man, this sentence killed me. :lol

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

Guys, I think I've got it. "My wife?!" and "Do you remember where you parked?" aren't actually humorous, they meant to be completely serious and inspire nothing but a mild nod.

Ahhh my bad, I thought you were using it as an example of a movie that DIDN'T have jokes in its marketing lol

they say that a hero can save us. I'm not gonna stand here and wait!

Wasn't Alfred always a joke character?

This week of Batman can on;y get better. Monday sucked, Tuesday posters were better and these tv spots are decent.

Its like WB wants to market this movie. About damn time.

NO. Tangerines are no laughing matter.

We're still two months away dude.

 

[Dany]

Never. I expect new promos every day until July 20th. Otherwise I will hyperbolize the failure of WB.

 

[G-Fex]

I'll cancel the pizzah.

SHALL I MAKE YOU A SANDWICH SIR?

ILL GET DRIVE THRU

NO. Tangerines are no laughing matter.

I never found any humor in that Tangerine story.

I wish someone would make a video of that Batmobile trying to get through a drive thru.

The awesomeness of these new tv spots guarantee this movie has a 200 million dollar opening weekend.

 

[Penguin]

Right now I'm having trouble believing you were even born when the TDK TV spots were running. They had goofy moments laced throughout them.

"He does that."

<Kids shooting their fingers at cars>

<The Batpod-wall thing and Joker going "Hmm!">

Forgot my favorite one

When Bruce decides to take the LAmbo, and Alfred is like "Yeah that's much more subtle"

 

[ShipTheCheese]

I'll make us a lil' suppah.

edit: don't know if already posted, still funny.

 

[RustyNails]

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

My wife!? Fighter jets!? Push ups!? Haggard long hair!?

FUCK YEAH. Awesome spots.

 

[G-Fex]

I'm sure the Jets are just decepticons.

 

[DMczaf]

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

They're totally gonna bone during the credits.

 

[MrPink93485]

This looks almost exactly like the end shot of TDK trailer #3.

Poetry, folks.

 

[callmedave]

Is that a new Lamborghini model, different from TDK?

That wasn't a car.

I meant just The Dark Knight, Trailer #3

(Or am I just supposed to use the opportunity for a joke?)

Amazing twist... Bruce, Bane, and Catwoman are all the same person! Bruce's obsessions taken to the ultimate limit

 

[rekameohs]

"My wife?!"

Oh my god Bruce gets amnesia and forgets about his marriage to Catwoman in the first act of the film.

Oh man. I turns out Bane is his shrink/marriage counselor and him sacking Gotham is an effort to jump start Bruce's memory.
