Just because the movie has already come out in theaters and is on its way to Blu-ray/DVD, that doesn't mean the posters will ever stop for The Dark Knight Rises.  Warner Bros. always releases about 437 posters for every blockbuster they make, and those are just the ones we see.  Advertising firms draw up plenty of posters for studios, and then the studios choose and release the ones they want (WB just chooses more than others).  Ad firm Trailer Park, Inc. has released three unused posters for The Dark Knight Rises.  Two show the characters being smothered in Rise debris, and the other plays off Bane's iconic mask.  While I like the one with the mask, it's almost too minimal for the casual moviegoer to make the connection.

Hit the jump to check out the posters.  The Dark Knight Rises will be available on Blu-ray, DVD, and digital download on December 4th.
