8 Movie Trailers That Contained The Final Shot Of The Film
6. The Dark Knight
The movie that changed the way everybody looked at comic-book adaptations - and the first entry in the genre to gross over $1 billion worldwide - The Dark Knight is still one of the best superhero movies ever made, almost ten years after its release.
It ends with Batman being forced to go on the run, after taking the blame for Harvey Dent's murder spree. As Commissioner Gordon delivers a speech about why the hero is being hunted by the police, the camera shows Bats atop his Batpod, speeding up a slope into the light before a cut to black and the credits.
This shot was one of the first we ever saw from the movie - it was a part of the opening few seconds of its main trailer.
Was this a spoiler? Well... not really. There's a lot of Batpod action in The Dark Knight, so this shot could easily have got mixed up in that somewhere. Besides, the movie is so engrossing that it's doubtful many people even recalled the trailers while watching.
