Video: Dark Knight, Why so similar?

We’re supposed to get a new Dark Knight trailer on Sunday, and I’m excited. We’ve had the teaser for a few weeks now, but one thing I’ve wondered since seeing it the first time is why so many scenes look like they were ripped out of Tim Burton’s Batman from 1989.

I guess I’m not alone. One very talented video editor remade the teaser out of scenes from Burton’s film and put together a pretty good shot-for-shot clone. It’s eerie how similar they are, but also really fun to watch.

  • I think you’re reaching a little bit here. If you really take in the context of those scenes from Batman they don’t jive well at all. There may be some visual similarities but how could there not be?

  • Two movies with the same characters where things blow up might possibly contain enough visual similarities to fill five minutes? Who would have thought.

  • Wow, great call there. Thats pretty cool. It really is nearly an exact ripoff of the old trailer!!! Man it makes me want to see this movie even more!
