The story of The DARK KNIGHT RISES takes place about 8 years following the death of Harvey Dent and the widespread antics of the Joker.  Since the condemnation and total capturing of BATMAN has happened, a new threat has arisen within the City of Gotham.  This terrorist character Bane is taking advantage of a city without BATMAN and has up to this point eluded the police department of Gotham.  Something must be done to eradicate this threat.  Even the CATWOMAN (Selina Kyle) is waiting for the rising of the DARK KNIGHT.  The DARK KNIGHT must confront his new, well equipped, opponent and nemesis: Bane.

The composer of the film Hans Zimmer wanted to use chants as part of the musical score in his preparing for the film.  Hans Zimmer has prepared a section within the movies website (UJAM) where fans can be creative, chant and create recordings of this right on the sight.  He is designing the sound of a worldwide chant for this new film and it must sound authentic.

Director Christopher Nolan is using IMAX technology to capture certain parts of the film which amount to 40 to 50 minutes.  The film was initially to be shot in 3D but that idea was nixed.  With the quality of the last film & soundtrack being so high, lets hope that The DARK KNIGHT RISES continues the saga properly.
