Just out of curiosity, how much are cinema tickets in the States?
Works out to about $19 over here.
Mine was full price at $10 for thursday at midnight. Sat and Sunday was at normal price of $8.50.
This coming saturday I will be at the IMAX in San Diego. I think is going to go for $14 to $16.
Turns out it beat the estimated 155 million and actually took in 158 million. 😱

I was going to post this.
The Dark Knight truely rulz...
btw that just goes to show how much of a huge difference it makes when marketing a comicbook film.Batman Begins was horribly promoted.Many people didnt even know that movie was in the theaters till it was already out because of how horribly promoted it was.Fortunately Warner Brothers learned from their mistake last time and THIS time they went all out and promoted it well in advance everywhere in places like they should have the first time.Result? much better box office results. 💃
The Dark Knight has taken down another record. It will become the fastest to $200 million domestically...

Never underestimate the spending power of 14 year old girls.
I found this interesting:
Not only does it have the Top 4 day gross, as of right now, but it also has the Top 5 day gross, despite only being in theaters for 4 days. In other words, if it made absolutely no money tomorrow, it would still have the Top 5 day gross. It's a whole day ahead.
Even more astounding, it is only a mere $700,000 short of having the Top 6 day gross, despite being in release for 4 days. Pirates 2 has that record, with $183.6 million in its first 6 days. TDK has grossed $182.9 in 4 days. This movie is almost 2 full days ahead of the record.
We seriously might be seeing $300 million for this movie by THIS WEEKEND. That would put it nearly on par with Iron Man and Indy, which are the top 2 movies of 2008 so far, and it took those movies 2 months to get that amount of money. 2 months... one week. Big difference there.
