Holy Smokes! Batman Trilogy Conclusion Opens Thursday at Midnight in Johnston
Take our poll. And if you're not into Batman, tell us why your superhero is better.

The long-awaited epic conclusion to filmmaker Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy opens at midnight Thursday nationwide and theaters are already selling tickets.
When we last saw Batman eight years ago, he vanished into the night, a fugitive instead of a superhero. He sacrificed everything for the greater good, but now he’s back in The Dark Knight Rises to take on a cunning cat burglar with a mysterious agenda. It only gets more complicated with the emergence of Bane, a masked terrorist whose ruthless agenda drives the caped hero out of his self-imposed exile.
Wynnsong Theaters, 523 Stoney Creek Road, has two showing of The Dark Knight Rises early Friday morning at at 12:01 a.m. and 12:02 a.m.
