'Operation Early Bird' Revealed - See The Dark Knight Rises Prologue Three Days Early


Yesterday I wrote about the start of The Dark Knight Rises viral marketing campaign, which lead to the discovery of OperationEarlyBird.com.  The countdown is now over, and instead you are greeted with the above map, which allows you to enter in coordinates.

It took me a bit of time to figure out what was going on, but a poster on one of the Dark Knight forums over at SuperheroHype.com mentioned checking out TheDarkKnightRises.com at the same time.

The site has been streaming audio of two women rattling off a series of numbers, which happen to be coordinates you can enter and submit.  If entered correctly, a new green dot appears which seem to be locations of IMAX theaters across the globe.  You can click on one of these dots, which should give you a pop up of the name of the theater and the date and time of December 13th, at 10PM, with a button where you can purchase tickets.

Posters on the above mentioned forum, reveal that the tickets are for The Dark Knight Rises prologue.  Looking back at the title of "Operation Early Bird", it all makes sense now.  Those patient enough to continue to enter coordinates and hope a location near you appears, can get a chance to get a early viewing of the prologue before it hits theaters in front of Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol on December 16th.

While not the most exciting start to the viral campaign, it does give fans a chance to cool way to see the prologue a few days early.  I for one, will most likely wait until it hits the net in the next couple weeks.
