Stepping out on the stage at the Colisseum in Caesar’s Palace after an introduction from Warners president Jeff Robinov, Nolan announced that he wouldn’t be showing a at the event trailer, but rather showing a series of short clips and shots with minimal dialogue. He explained this decision by saying that he knew that the audience was filled with members of the National Association of Theater Owners rather than fans clamoring to see the film, so he adjusted accordingly.
The footage began with an excerpt from the prologue that arrived in theaters in December, featuring Bane (Tom Hardy) taking down a CIA plane, and I have some terrific news: I understood every word that Bane said. It should be noted that the theater I was in featured some of the most advanced technology in the projection industry, so I don’t know if they changed the audio or if it was just the presentation, but it did raise my confidence in that aspect of the film.
As mentioned, most of the scenes shown were tight and quick and featured little to no context, so here is a list of the stuff that I caught:
- Catwoman (Anne Hathaway) dressed as a maid before ripping off the white frills and revealing her black dress
- James Gordon (Gary Oldman), as seen in the teaser trailer from last summer, lying in a hospital bed in bad shape
- Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) sitting in his Batcave, which still looks very much like a cave
- Bruce Wayne and Lucius Fox together in Wayne Enterprises
- A team of police officers in raid gear slowly touring through what appear to be subway tunnels
- Batman’s new vehicle, The Bat, taking to the air and spinning twisting as it flies over Gotham
- Catwoman, in her full costume, leaning down and stealing stuff from a safe
- Miranda Tate (Marion Cotillard) and Bruce Wayne sharing an intimate kiss
- Catwoman sitting on the Batpod and firing at a blocked tunnel in the distance
- Miranda Tate saying, “You’ve given them everything,” and Bruce Wayne replying, “Not yet.”
- Alfred (Michael Caine) talking about the difficulty of getting back into his old routine.
