10 Hidden Details In Movie Opening Scenes

10. The Dark Knight - Joker Isn't The Only Villain To Pose As His Own Henchman

At this point, you'd think we'd have pretty much absorbed all the information there is to know about Christopher Nolan's stunning Dark Knight trilogy.

All three films have been studied and revered for what feels like an eternity now, yet one small detail seems to have been overlooked completely throughout all of the entries in the series.

As demonstrated at the start of The Dark Knight, The Joker (Heath Ledger) pretends to be one of his own henchman in order to infiltrate a bank and steal the loot for himself. In doing so he reveals that he was the brains behind the plan all along, yet he wasn't the first or last Batman villain in Nolan's films to do so.

In Batman Begins, Henri Ducard (Liam Neeson) recruits Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) to Ra's Al Ghul's League of Shadows and trains him before later revealing himself to be the actual Ra's Al Ghul later in the film. Also, Bane does a similar thing at the start of The Dark Knight Rises when he pretends to be one of his own followers during his mission to abduct nuclear physicist Dr. Leonid Pavel on a plane.

Three ground-breaking Batman villains with three very similar ways of getting the job done.
