A new INCEPTION trailer will be in theaters with SHERLOCK HOLMES but you can get yourself a new look at the film right now! No, we don't have a sneak peek at the trailer (yet) but the first teaser poster for the film has been revealed. This past weekend, the official site for the film updated a bit and opened up a little maze game. Once you were able to complete the game, you were rewarded with a look at the poster. It's...well, a little bizarre. Leonardo DiCaprio, gushing water, a cityscape, a title font that looks borrowed from the CHICAGO poster... Why? What's the significance? I DON'T KNOW!

Extra Tidbit: Are those clouds purposely ominous or am I reading too much into this?

Or maybe it's a tree with a hat.

Is it just me or is there a giant head with a hat on, just above the water, beside a building on the left?

This is very much like The Dark Knight's Joker version, except it's Leo. Is it just me or there is something "hiding" in those clouds? You know, like Cloverfield poster. Just a thought.

Awesome poster. From what I know the movie revolves around happenings of dreams / thoughts deep within the mind and this poster portrays exactly that; something out of a dream.



Can't wait for this movie. As much as I'd like to see Nolan complete the Batman trilogy, his other movies are masterpieces nonetheless!

Looks almost exactly like TDK posters.
I'm looking forward to this, but I don't like that the WB is just regurgitating everything from The Dark Knight. Get a little original, its a damn Christopher Nolan film for crying out loud! He deserves better than recycled posters.

This is just the first poster, plus DiCaprio is the main selling point given that he's the biggest A-lister in the film.

Everyone's
arguing over the font. Isn't it supposed to represent...a maze? That's what I see at least. And look at one of the dark blue buildings to Leo's left. There's four floors on that that seem to be lit up or something. Anything hidden?



But yeah, great great poster.

Who wants to bet the scene in this poster makes it into the movie? If you've seen the video footage of the crew shooting in chicago, you know why.



Great poster BTW.

The Title Font
The typography has arrived to answer the question so you can sleep at night. The typeface is either Gotham (familiar from the Obama presidential campaign), or the Title weight of Neutraface 2. It's hard to say for sure 100% at this size, but I'm saying Gotham. Slight chance its Proximo Sans, which is a cheap knock-off of Gotham - but I'm guessing WB has the budget to spring for Gotham.

The "Open" lettering is probably a custom contract from a designer to extend the font.

Awesome
Nolan has been my favorite director since before TDK, and I'm really happy to see him finally getting the recognition he deserves. This man will be the next Scorsese, mark my words...

Looking for Neo?
It looks like Agent Smith looking for Neo after the last big fight in the rain.



I guess this is as close to another Matrix sequel as I'll get.

The movie is going to be fucking epic. Just like "Memento", "Batman Begins", "The Prestige", and "The Dark Knight" before it. Cool poster.

Dark Knight 2?
Looking forward to the movie, but that possible looks a lot like the Dark Knight posters. Was it the same artist?
