Via Twentysided: a comparison of the 1989 Batman trailer and the 2008 Dark Knight trailer.
That surely can't be coincidence.

That is more than just a fleeting resemblance indeed.
I think they did edit the Batman 1989 trailer just a tiny bit in order to get the timing right. Nonetheless, I don't think it's a coincidence. There's only so many ways to make a movie trailer, and there's only so many ways to make a first trailer for a Batman movie involving the Joker. Hollywood has this sort of thing down to a math formula by now.
