Last week a viral for Christopher Nolan’s Inception got underway, revealing the first one sheet for the film. It was discovered at the completion of an internet mini game called Mind Crime, which involved users creating a maze for people to play around in. With only a few days before the second teaser trailer hits theaters (attached to Sherlock Holmes), another teaser poster has supposedly been uncovered in the game (found via nolanfans.com). The new poster features an aerial view of the logo for the film, in the form of skyscrapers.
This poster will be followed by a new teaser trailer attached to SHERLOCK HOLMES on Christmas day.
It seems as though the new trailer will be as vague as the posters and early teaser, not offering too much info on the film. According to Matt over at Collider – who has already seen it,
“the trailer begins with a voiceover of DiCaprio talking about the power of an idea and then the climax of his voiceover is him saying something like, “That’s why I have to steal it.” Then a bunch of stuff happens and while I can’t tell you what any of it meant, I will say that it looks pretty cool. The moment that stuck in my mind was a city block rolling up like it was a piece of carpet and all the buildings just going along with it.”

Wow, they are really keeping tight lipped on this one. I’m definitely intrigued… which, I’m sure was Warner Bros/Nolan’s objective – so, they’re doing a stellar job thus far. Be sure to get out and see Sherlock Holmes so you can catch this trailer… a trailer which is bound to be more original than the entirety of Avatar (sorry, couldn’t resist) and combined with Robert Downey Jr. as Holmes, your money will be better spent!
