Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy is amongst the most loved franchises across the globe. While we loved Christian Bale as Batman, we also saw never-seen-before supervillains like Joker played by Heath Ledger and Bane played by Tom Hardy.

The success of the second instalment, The Dark Knight was beyond expectations and expectedly, it managed to create a huge hype for the last part of the trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises. Earlier, it was doubted if the next antagonist manages to touch the bar set by Heath Ledger’s Joker, but Tom Hardy as Bane left impressed with his unique aura. When the first few glimpses from the film were dropped, fans went crazy to catch the film.

Such a craze did translate in numbers as the makers were stunned by the response. Apparently, the advance bookings for The Dark Knight Rises have opened six months ahead from the release date. The online ticket sale was opened through Fandango.com for special IMAX version. And believe us, within a few hours of opening, the premiere midnight shows were all sold out in New York and Los Angeles.
