Meh. We all know the reason behind The Dark Knight's success was free marketing by the media because of a death

Keep your shit to yourself...the only reason TDK was a succes is because it's the best batman movie.

It's currently the 10th best movie of all time on IMDb judged on user-scores,so stop trying to diss it,cause you fail.


lol I was just kidding. Im a huge batman fan myself and agree The Dark Knight was the best. But come on. We can all agree that this next movie won't make nearly the same amount of money unless Christian Bale dies.

Why wouldnt it?The people who saw TDK will see TDKR.

Ledger's death merely meant a 5-10% increase,TDK couldn't have done any less than 900M without his death.This time it's the end of the trilogy,and the marketing will be even more aggressive.

People from Inception will also go to check out Nolan's new movie,especially overseas,where Inception was even bigger than TDK.

People overestimate the importance of Ledger's death,how many people could have went to see the movie just because of that?5 million?10 million?That accounts for $35M,and $70M respectively.And I doubt there were THAT many people.
