The Dark Knight Rises Most Watched YouTube Movie Trailer: Biz Break

The Batman finale was the most watched movie trailer on YouTube, though it actually placed only third overall. Also in Thursday's round-up of news, the Palm Springs International Film Festival sets its lineup including opening and closing titles; Sundance unveiled its competition juries; and release dates are set for Arnold Schwarzenegger's Ten and Paramount's Anchorman sequel.

The Dark Knight Rises Most Watched Movie Trailer in 2012
The film ranked highest of any film related trailer, placing third followed by Skyfall (4th), Ted (5th) and Hunger Games (6th). The top two spots in the rankings, based on how many times a cop was viewed, how long people stayed on the clip and how many times people searched for a clip instead of clicking on an ad, were two video games: Activision's Call of Duty Black Ops 2, Deadline reports.
