List of IMAX Locations Where You Can Watch ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ Prologue Released

Warner Bros. sent over a press release earlier today announcing the select IMAX locations where the six-minute opening sequence of the film from The Dark Knight Rises can be seen as it will play in front of select 70mm IMAX presentations of Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol beginning on December 16 in North America and on December 21 in the UK with additional international dates yet to be revealed.

The press release continues with the following information:

In making the 2008 blockbuster The Dark Knight, [director Christopher Nolan] was the first to use IMAX cameras in a major motion picture release, and, as now, audiences were given an advance look at that film’s prologue months prior to the Summer 2008 opening. Nolan employed the extremely high-resolution cameras even more extensively on The Dark Knight Rises – including the film’s prologue—to achieve unprecedented crispness and clarity and a truly immersive experience for the moviegoers.

Christopher Nolan stated, “Our experience on The Dark Knight shooting and projecting IMAX 15 perf 65mm/70mm film was inspiring. The immersive quality of the image goes beyond any other filmmaking tool available, and in revisiting Gotham, we were determined to shoot even more of the movie in this unique format. Giving the fans an early look at an IMAX sequence is a great way to draw attention to what I believe will be an incredible way to experience our story when it comes out next summer.”
