The ads have started to appear. Which means it's my time to say: if you think there are too many ads on this video (which is possible)... copyright claims means I can't control the ad frequency, nor do I get the money... so... Hopefully you can still enjoy the video though 👍😃 Also, yes, this video does start in 2006, but I know Batman Begins came out in 2005 lmfao, I made a whole other video about it.
For those of us who watch youtube more than anything else, paying for no ads is a small price... ;-) So it's been three days, where is Dark Knight Rises??? Chop chop! Lets go!!! HA HA HA HA HA!!! Just kidding but get used to that if you become more popular! Good job on the video and look forward to next week!
It's called 'viral marketing'. It is designed to be out there. But it's really tricky to predict if it's going to be effective. Sometimes a trailer, social media stuff, interviews with stars can be enough. But I get what you mean.
I can't agree more. The effort he put in scraping all the marketing articles, the websites, the clips, the detailing like the first review of the movie, these are the people who should create content on youtube.
A crazy part of this movie, when Harvey and Rachel are being saved, she is sure she’s getting saved and acts that way the entire time, right up until she dies
Decided to watch the boat scene again because it is absolutely a master class in writing a scene and as I was browsing through the comments I found one that summed up that scene pretty well with the two characters who had the detonator: One man showed his humanity, the other found his.
It also shows that the writers and Christopher Nolan understand The Joker’s biggest personal flaw: he‘s a narcissist who believes *everyone* is like him, and that all it takes is one small shove to turn them into monsters. Just like him. But that’s just not true. Sure there *are* people who would gladly blow up the other boat without question, but they are few and far between. They are not the majority, and it’s Joker’s failure to understand that simple truth that leads to his downfall. You can even see it on his face when the clock strikes midnight and nothing goes boom. His smile vanishes and his expression goes blank, almost as if he’s thinking “That wasn’t supposed to happen.” For the first time in the entire film, we see his confident facade crumble as reality kicks in the door, and once his confidence is gone… that’s it. He’s lost. Hence why Batman is able to take him down so quickly.
I was about 20 when the Dark Knight came out. I remember all the hate Heath was getting and I ALSO remember all those people dressing up as the joker and walking around malls and grocery stores acting like they weren’t the ones that were also calling him names 6 months ago 😂 But seriously this guys been making great videos! Good job
@@Codemittens that’s usually how the world works sadly. I could be wrong but I believe it was Edgar Allen Poe who died broke and drunk and rejected, then after death and became a literary icon 😂
This film is my personal favorite Batman movie, the acting, the effects, the music, all of it was so damn good. It's truly a once in a lifetime film. I wish I could watch it for the first time again.
"You've got a little fight in you, I like that." "Then your gonna love me" Best scene from any movie of all time. Literally just appears decks his ass then jumps out the window.
Best marketing campaign EVER That combined with vids of the location shoots where we got to see trucks getting crashed & entire building demolished. I’ve never been more hyped for a movie
Your format for retrospectives are incredible and unique. I love seeing the whole production, marketing, anticipation, movie recap and reception for all these movies and series. Great Job, cannot wait for countless other movies being showcased like this, or even TV shows or video games that had immense hype.
Thanks for doing a retrospective on Nolan's trilogy! Hope we'll see a supercut with all three retrospectives in one big video! Also maybe one for the MCU retrospectives?
Y'all, just watch the videos in order on a playlist Prime's got more original free content to make for us! He can't be bogged down with something you can do yourself lol
What an amazing retrospective. I had no idea the marketing campaign was so in depth. Truly incredible. Great job on the video. No doubt it's a fantastic movie worthy of such praise.
Christopher nolan created a version of batman that we still can't stop taking about even after 10 years.Meanwhile, literally no one cares that the "Ben Affleck" batman got ruined in the flash.
Action wise, Affleck version was way better Bale Batman fighting Bane was so pathetic, just straight punches and loud snorts Didn't look like a guy with unlimited martial arts knowledge
This was so good. Thank you for the awesome tribute. I missed all the marketing stuff that was done because I don’t live in the US and I was too young. But damn it was a lot of work and well done to their team. Great video as always!
I love how in depth they went with how there’s no music during the chase scene. I actually never noticed it here but when Batman fights Bane in TDKR Nolan does that same thing and it certainly adds an eerie, uneasy feeling to the scene
This made me cry, the ending of TDK always gets me...and you narrating over it was even more emotional, due to the inclusion of the reviews, ad campaigns, casting etc. Brilliant work!
This is an excellent video and this movie is honeslty in my top 3 favorite movies of All time. This movie also has many great quotes but the ones that stick with me the most are - "Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A dark knight." - Jim Gordon “Sometimes the truth isn't good enough, sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded…” - Batman (Obviously the line by Harvey Dent) And "Does it depress you, commissioner? To know just how alone you really are?" - The joker during the interrogation scene.
FINALLY!!!!!! I love all of your retrospetive and once I saw the Batman Begins Video I couldn't wait for the dark knight thank you! I love your videos, have a great day!!
Thanks lol. Are u sure ur not my kid??? Not only are the facts of ur age the same, but that is exactly what my kid would say!!😂 Trust me, we are reminded on a daily basis how old we all are
Dude… how does this channel not have more subscribers? This is the first video I’ve come across of yours and I now have over 5 videos saved to my watch later. The depth you go into is crazy! Such great work. Keep it up, seriously! 💪🏼
And to think he only had like 10,000 just a year ago. This guy does such in depth vids you will no doubt be impressed with I promise. I just found him a few months ago but watched all his retrospectives even if I wasn't totally interested in material I still enjoyed his enthusiasm and found them entertaining.
His channel was probably stunted with his Star Wars retrospective. Outside the sequel trilogy: he tried way to hard to be controversial. Saying stuff like Qui-Gon sucks, & disregarding the lore.. all that stuff. Plus shaming TH-camrs 😬 I mean the comments are turned off on that video. These Batman videos are nice though, but… hopefully he stays away from being controversial. Not a good look, his content is BETTER than that.
I think the Batman Part 2 needs to do a similar marketing campaign to the Dark Knight tbh. Loads of cues to take from how they did that. Great video on my favorite comic book movie of all time!
I was working at a movie theater in 08. We had an Imax screen. Every showing was sold out months before it even came out. I worked in the box office, and it felt like I sold a million dollars worth of tickets to The Dark Knight. It was pretty cool to be involved involved with all the hype.
Great GREAT video. Stumble you channel with the Transformers, then Marvel, then LOTR, now this.. Got Goosebumps in multiple times in every videos. Cheers from Indonesia
Just watched your whole Star Wars movies complete retrospective and that was AMAZING!! 👍👏🔥🔥 Couldn't post it there because comments were disabled. 😊 Looking forward to this series, as I'm sure it'll be the same high quality!! 🎉❤ Thank you for you work, subscribed! 😊
This is the second mention I've seen of Prime's Star Wars retrospective- I'll have to watch that one next! The other person said it's controversial lol
48:30 I saw The Dark Knight on opening day at the Mall of Georgia on IMAX. When Jim Gordon reveals he’s alive and captures the Joker, the entire audience lost their collective minds and, for me at least, it was far and above more exciting than the portal scene in Avengers: Endgame. Screaming “AVENGERS!!!!!” ((whisper)) assemble.” Give me a freaking break.
I wish I was older when all of this was going on, I had no idea! Could you imagine if after all of the marketing the movie was ass??😭 They put in so much effort and detail, it was bound to be one of the greatest movies of all time!
I didn’t click the thumbnail to watch this video it just started auto playing and man I’m glad it did. What a great video. I wasn’t expecting to watch an hour long retrospective of the dark knight an hour and a half ago.
I love your retrospectives on Nolan's Batman! Amazing work! It complements the movies and official behind the scenes/making of footage very nicely. Thank you and keep it up!
Awesome as always! Im confident i will enjoy the conclusion to this series more than i did the conclusion to the actual trilogy. Looking forward to next weekend.
Definitely one of the greatest movies of all time !!! Super insane to me how absolutely talented all these people are and how great things can come together !!!!!! Nothing but absolutely epic work 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It’s wild how I grew up with this movie series and I didn’t know the marketing was this INSANE for the movie. That’s freakin unbelievable how good this ad campaign was. I wish we got these from more movies today. It really feels like such a love letter to fans.
I once read a comment on TH-cam that a guy had been reading the comics since the 50s and 60s, but the Dark Knight Trilogy were the movies he had been hoping for for most of his life. That should tell you everything about how fantastic these movies are.
The fact that fans did not initially like the casting of Heath Ledger yet totaly embraced him when he proved them wrong tells you all you need to know about said fans: we are willing to change our mind when we are wrong. Which means, when we don't change our mind, we are right.
Jack Nicholson's and Heath Ledger's Jokers, Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin, Ian McKellen's Magneto, Tom Hiddleston's Loki and Josh Brolin's Thanos are my favorite superhero movie villains.
Prime Theater, great job on this retrospective. A lot of huge behind the scenes moments and you captured just how big of an event this film was and how it still holds up today as one of the best "Comic Book" movies ever made.
Batman Begins was an awesome movie, one of the best superhero-movies ever made.. Then The Dark Knight came along.. Wich is even better.. WAY better.. While Batman Begins was one of the best SUPERHERO movies, The Dark Knight is one of the best movies PERIOD.. I love the trilogy and Dark Knight is the best of the 3, by far..
This movie touched on so many concepts.. in Batman's attempt to control his fear of organized evil, he then created a bigger fear, spontaneous evil. In Harvey's attempt to be Gotham's decisive savior, he became Gotham's decisive destroyer. Harvey took the fault for Batman, then Batman took the fault for Harvey. What Bruce Wayne saw as his chance for love and happiness, we as the audience saw a heartbreak waiting to happen.
Never knew the marketing campaign for Dark Knight was that intense and immersive. That's genius marketing right there. Even if it cost $100M, it probably boosted movie sales by 3X that amount. Top notch.
I have been wanting a retrospective for The Dark Knight just like this for forever There are a bunch of reviews and retrospectives of this film but none go into how casting and production went they are all just retrospectives about the film This retrospective is perfect, thank you so much for all the hard work you put into this All it took for me to subscribe was this one retrospective, now I’m going to check out your Batman Begins retrospective Thank you !😊
Very very very very very good Job! Thank you! This Video was amazing! I could use more words but i will say, this video is like the Dark Knight... Just perfekt!!😊
The ads have started to appear. Which means it's my time to say: if you think there are too many ads on this video (which is possible)... copyright claims means I can't control the ad frequency, nor do I get the money... so... Hopefully you can still enjoy the video though 👍😃
Also, yes, this video does start in 2006, but I know Batman Begins came out in 2005 lmfao, I made a whole other video about it.
You should tell everybody to turn on their ad blocker at the beginning of the video.
Good thing I pay for TH-cam premium then!
regardless, for this quality content it is not hard to endure them 10/10 again
For those of us who watch youtube more than anything else, paying for no ads is a small price... ;-) So it's been three days, where is Dark Knight Rises??? Chop chop! Lets go!!! HA HA HA HA HA!!! Just kidding but get used to that if you become more popular! Good job on the video and look forward to next week!
I took my at the Time Father in Law to see it at the movie theater and he actually Thanked me (which he didn't do very often or lightly).
I had no idea the ad campaign for this movie went that far. Amazing retrospective as always!
Glad he went over it because, somehow, it’s quite unknown all things considered
Really makes me realize just how bad movie marketing has gotten nowadays
I know!! I first realized in his lord of the rings video, but it’s so stark the lack of effort that’s put into a ton of content
Really crazy wow 😳😳😲😲
Considering how much it costs....they don't seem to do much do they?
It's called 'viral marketing'. It is designed to be out there. But it's really tricky to predict if it's going to be effective. Sometimes a trailer, social media stuff, interviews with stars can be enough.
But I get what you mean.
It makes it really clear why Oppenheimer and Barbie blew everything away - they actually had a viral marketing campaign, albeit an accidental one
I swear to god with how much effort this dude puts into his videos. It is a crime he doesn’t even have 100k
As much effort as TDK marketing
250k
I can't agree more. The effort he put in scraping all the marketing articles, the websites, the clips, the detailing like the first review of the movie, these are the people who should create content on youtube.
dw, the momentum will come and this will be a legendary channel
A crazy part of this movie, when Harvey and Rachel are being saved, she is sure she’s getting saved and acts that way the entire time, right up until she dies
"RACHEL, LISTEN TO ME! YOUR PRIVILEGE IS SHOWING!"
Literally no doubt in my mind and honestly I was glad to see her go
Not at all
😂😂Joker 🃏 syndrome in the Batman, unpredictability at rock bottom.
@@malcolmhodnett8874 obvious when she is a movie original character and Harvey Dent is Two Faced.
Decided to watch the boat scene again because it is absolutely a master class in writing a scene and as I was browsing through the comments I found one that summed up that scene pretty well with the two characters who had the detonator: One man showed his humanity, the other found his.

no kidding. I remember specifically being vocal about my support for Adrian Brodie and disappointment in the dude from 10 things I hate about you
Let me guess, you were one of the only people on planet Earth who thought the guy from The Order was gonna nail it? Why do people BS so much?
He didn't deserve the hate imo but notice how everyone love him when he dies
@@Codemittens that’s usually how the world works sadly. I could be wrong but I believe it was Edgar Allen Poe who died broke and drunk and rejected, then after death and became a literary icon 😂
@@kh7688 What???
This film is my personal favorite Batman movie, the acting, the effects, the music, all of it was so damn good. It's truly a once in a lifetime film. I wish I could watch it for the first time again.
True masterpiece ❤
DarkKnight ❤❤
It only needed lore accurate batman fights thats it
👍🏾
Average Batman movie at best
@@CukMcGeeyou are joking
Heath Ledgers’ Joker will always remain the best Joker alteration EVER made.
"You've got a little fight in you, I like that." "Then your gonna love me"
Best scene from any movie of all time. Literally just appears decks his ass then jumps out the window.
I've read that canonically, that's Batman's greatest ability. He can disappear on Superman.
Not even close.yet it's your opinion and you are entitled to it
This isn't just one of the greatest batman movies but one of the best movies period. I watch this movie all the time and it never gets old.
Best marketing campaign EVER
That combined with vids of the location shoots where we got to see trucks getting crashed & entire building demolished. I’ve never been more hyped for a movie
“You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become a villain…”
I believe that is what the MCU said ....
Two Face friends 😂
Crazy thing is technically Harvey both died a hero (in the eyes of Gotham city) but still lived long enough to see himself become the villain
@@Chrismw81no way your serious lmfao
This one quote ages better the more and more we keep going

Great Job, cannot wait for countless other movies being showcased like this, or even TV shows or video games that had immense hype.
The viral marketing is something I paid very close attention to but still wish I would have participated more in. It was such a blast.
i love how you put so much emphasis on the campaigns. True marketers feel thankful
Thanks for doing a retrospective on Nolan's trilogy! Hope we'll see a supercut with all three retrospectives in one big video! Also maybe one for the MCU retrospectives?
He already did the mcu ones
@@thestunner31615I'm talking about putting every MCU retrospective video into one 9+ hour compilation.
Yes it would be really nice to have one video to run through all of his full series. One for Transformers, one for the MCU and so on
Y'all, just watch the videos in order on a playlist
Prime's got more original free content to make for us! He can't be bogged down with something you can do yourself lol
Viral marketing around 2000-2010 was elite. Cloverfield is a personal favorite
you're literally the only person to physically glue me to my seat and make me watch a 1h15m documentary lmao, keep up the great work dude
He does make excellent content! But you likely also need to work on your attention span lol
You know it’s a good day when prime uploads
What an amazing retrospective. I had no idea the marketing campaign was so in depth. Truly incredible. Great job on the video. No doubt it's a fantastic movie worthy of such praise.
Seen this like 6 times at theater's. Man I love this movie. Great job man
True legend
DarkKnight
I literally watched The Dark Knight for the very first time yesterday this is perfectly timed lol
How’d you find it this far on?
Your thoughts???
Man what I wouldn’t give to watch this film for the first time again.
Christopher nolan created a version of batman that we still can't stop taking about even after 10 years.Meanwhile, literally no one cares that the "Ben Affleck" batman got ruined in the flash.
Batfleck was never good to begin with, but I know what u mean
I wouldn't blame Batfleck for Hollywood's downgrade in movie quality the past decade but okay.
Action wise, Affleck version was way better
Bale Batman fighting Bane was so pathetic, just straight punches and loud snorts
Didn't look like a guy with unlimited martial arts knowledge

Batman begins ps2 game
Masterpiece
Loved your last one for Batman Begins, this ought to be great as well!
This made me cry, the ending of TDK always gets me...and you narrating over it was even more emotional, due to the inclusion of the reviews, ad campaigns, casting etc. Brilliant work!
Always so excited when a new video comes out. Always so depressed when it’s over.

Nolan needs to see this, what a masterpeice of a retrospective.
What a time to be alive. I remember being in high school getting ready for this release! Wish this kind of anticipation for films happened today!
Anyone ready to feel old? Well too bad. I was 4 when this movie came out And I can now VOTE!

@@jenloveshorror hahahah I can promise I am not
The dark Knight is the best in rolling, canned down. Basically everything is good with the lid, and Nolan films is basically the best one.

I love this re living of the feeling I had watching this. Goosebumps throughout this video. Keep doing these
Been waiting a long time for this Prime. It’s finally here!
this just made me realise how much this movie just does not let up 😂
loved the marvel retrospective and the batman begins one keep it up man
Yesss second part ❤. Another amazing video from you mate! I can't wait for the last part.
Does anyone know how this channel doesn't have more subscribers-its so professional!?
The algorithm gods haven't blessed yet
This will go down in history as one of the best films of all time. Period.
The Dark Knight is a masterpiece.
Up there with Empire and Raiders.
Nolan is a genius. He invented the IMAX steadycam to get the flow of the shots for the Dark Knight.
Sheer unadulterated genius.
I think the Batman Part 2 needs to do a similar marketing campaign to the Dark Knight tbh. Loads of cues to take from how they did that. Great video on my favorite comic book movie of all time!
Ahhhhhh snap! There goes my Saturday morning hahahah thanks man! Love your content!
Hi, found this channel through this vid and so far I’m loving it! Didn’t know the marketing was cooking this hard ng
I was working at a movie theater in 08. We had an Imax screen. Every showing was sold out months before it even came out. I worked in the box office, and it felt like I sold a million dollars worth of tickets to The Dark Knight.
It was pretty cool to be involved involved with all the hype.
OMG!!!! it´s happening!!!!. I´ve waited fior this.. thanks for bringing it a week later.. Greetings from Argentina. I love your work.
Thank you, one of the best movies ever.
If you ever show your face & you’re not Owen Wilson, I’m going to be shocked 😂

Great GREAT video. Stumble you channel with the Transformers, then Marvel, then LOTR, now this.. Got Goosebumps in multiple times in every videos. Cheers from Indonesia

Great retrospective sir 👏🏿 👏🏿👏🏿
The last time I got a speeding ticket was on the way to see the Dark Knight on opening night. So worth it!

I’ve seen it so many times and it is so good each watch. Miss you Heath ❤
Once Dune: Part Two comes out we need a retrospective on that and the first one!
I remember this intense hype and build up for Heath Ledgers joker. Good times
I was 5 when this movie came out. I wish I could have been the age I am now for all this hype!!
Great essay, well done, huge amount of work from script to editing and all really well considered and keenly observed.
You can be very proud of this.

Prime Theater, great job on this retrospective. A lot of huge behind the scenes moments and you captured just how big of an event this film was and how it still holds up today as one of the best "Comic Book" movies ever made.
Batman Begins was an awesome movie, one of the best superhero-movies ever made..
Then The Dark Knight came along.. Wich is even better.. WAY better..
