Screening Schedule: "The Dark Knight Rises" IMAX Prologue

For those of you out there who are like me when it comes to enjoying Batman stories and Christopher Nolan movies there is an opportunity knocking on our front door for the holiday season. Mark your calendars to reserve some time on December 16, 2011 to go and watch Mission: Impossible, Ghost Protocol on an IMAX screen, which will serve as a vehicle to present a six minute (estimated) prologue from the upcoming Batman movie titled The Dark Knight Rises. The new movie will not be released in its entirety until the summer of 2012, but this prologue segment should offer us an idea of how the movie will look on the IMAX screen next year. I watched The Dark Knight on a mini-IMAX screen (read more about what I am talking about by clicking here) during its initial release in 2009. List below is a list of movie theaters through North America that will be tagging the prologue on to the front of the Mission: Impossible IMAX movie. If there is a location near you, then it might be worth a trip to see the teaser video. This is a limited release, so you might have to travel quite a ways if you do not live in a metro area that has a theater playing the footage. The closest movie theater from my home base is 71.4 miles away and I am considering the option of saving my gas money by waiting until the entire movie is released next summer.
