The dark knight rises poster analysis


For this post I will be analysing the Dark knight rises poster released in the summer of 2012.
  • First thing I notice when I look at the poster is the black setting and rain coming down. This suggests to me sadness and darkness almost like something bad is about to happen. 
  • I then notice the title of the poster 'The legend ends' which easily links with the presumption that this will be the end of the film series, and by calling it the 'legend' ends hypes up the film even more and excites the audience.
  • Another key feature of the poster is the broken batman mask which looks to be thrown on the floor, which again suggests something bad is going to happen and the legend is going to 'end'. Also comic fans would notice that bane (The character standing in the middle) is the only character known to 'break the bat'. 
  • This poster was the first one to be released for the dark knight rises and as its quite obscure yet gives a lot of detail it was quite suitable as it interests the audience immediately. 
  • Lastly at the bottom of the poster it says 'Summer 2012' telling the audience the release date however not giving any specifics therefore keeps the audience interested and intrigued to find out more.
