I’m starting to wonder just how many clips are going to appear online for the upcoming release of Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 1 from Warner Brothers and DC Comics, as today a fourth clip has been released (albeit, a very cool clip) showcasing Batman taking down some criminals. We still have two weeks to go before the film hits Blu-ray and DVD, so at this rate we probably have a few more clips to go before its premiere if they keep this up! Hit the jump to watch!
Official Synopsis:
…it’s been a decade since Bruce Wayne hung up his cape, following most of the other superheroes who had been forced into retirement. Facing the downside of middle age, a restless Bruce Wayne pacifies his frustration with race cars and liquor – but the bat still beckons as he watches his city fall prey to gangs of barbaric criminals known as The Mutants.
The return of Harvey Dent as Two-Face finally prompts Wayne to once again don the Dark Knight’s cowl, and his dramatic capture of the villain returns him to crime-fighting – simultaneously making him the target of law enforcement and the new hope for a desolate Gotham City. Particularly inspired is a teenage girl named Carrie, who adopts the persona of Robin and ultimately saves Batman from a brutal attack by the Mutant leader. Armed with a new sidekick, and re-energized with a definitive purpose, the Dark Knight returns to protect Gotham from foes new…and old.
