Another brand new poster image for 2012′s biggest movie The Dark Knight Rises has been released!

Director Christopher Nolan and star Christian Bale are back for their third and final Batman film. The reported production budget for this movie is a massive $250 M so expect lots of amazing stunts and special effects. Plot details for the film are being kept under wraps though but The Dark Knight Rises takes place 8 years after the last movie.

The new poster image is black and white, similar to the first Dark Knight Rises poster we saw released in 2011. It features Bale walking away in the rain, with his shattered Batman suit behind him. The tag line “The Legend Ends” is featured prominently. Once again, the artwork on this poster is excellent – a must-add collectible for any Dark Knight fan! This poster is in stock now at MovieGoods, available in 3 different sizes.

2011 was a solid year for Broadway productions in New York, as several shows made headlines throughout the year and ticket sales had an uptick. Without a doubt, Spider-Man, Turn Off the Dark made the most headlines, and arguably, made more news than any Broadway production in many years. Despite the bad publicity, the show is a big grosser taking in over $1.5 million per week. Spider-Man also set a new single week Broadway record over the Christmas holiday period. Other top Broadway events in 2011 included The Book of Mormon, penned by South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. The Book of Mormon was the big winner at the 2011 Tony Awards.

Other top Broadway tickets in 2011 included the long-running musicals Chicago and Les Miserables, Wicked and How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, which starred Harry Potter’s Daniel Radcliffe for much of the year.
