"You destroyed everything I had. I'm just returning the favor." In this YouTube culture, what doesn't get spoofed, remixed and rehashed? First, Fox has released a perfectly-timed TV spot for Ice Age: Continental Drift that plays on the hype for The Dark Knight Rises, hitting a week after that comes out. This one is called "The Dark Nut" with Scratman and it's funny, but way too short. Second, there's a fantastic remix of Dark Knight Rises trailer cut to be like that original Girl with the Dragon Tattoo trailer that uses Karen O's "Immigrant Song" cover and flashy editing. Both entertaining videos to keep you anxiously awaiting TDKR.

20th Century Fox & Blue Sky Studio's Ice Age: Continental Drift is scheduled to hit theaters a week before TDKR destroys cinemas worldwide, opening on July 13th this coming weekend. If you're curious about it.

The Dark Knight Rises is once again directed by Oscar nominated British filmmaker Christopher Nolan, of Following, Memento, Insomnia, Batman Begins, The Prestige, The Dark Knight and Inception previously. The script was co-written by Christopher & Jonathan Nolan (The Prestige, The Dark Knight), from a story by Chris Nolan & David S. Goyer (of Batman Begins, The Dark Knight). Warner Bros is bringing The Dark Knight Rises to regular and IMAX theaters everywhere on July 20th later this month. The Legend Ends...
