I wouldn't go insane I'd just don a nomex foam rubber costume and start jumping off rooftops 😆 😆 😆 😆

I'd moon everyone I ride pass and say "Look at this you ugly bastards!" 😂

I hope the dark knight surpasses Titanic just because i would really really like to see some new movie's from James Cameron. Losing top spot might inspire him to get out of his god damn submarine, forget about deep sea fish and the titanic and get back into the directors chair.

It's happened - The Dark Knight held off The Mummy 3 to take the weekend! It will be at $400 million in North America by the end of today!
Suits at Warner Bros. are predicting it could add another $100 million in North America before it's done. I think they're being coy - no mentioning of catching Titanic's record of $601 million just yet.
$400 million in just 17 days?! With the slow month of August to dominate in??
I think it's going to happen.

Reached 400 in less than half the time it took the previous record holder, one of the Shrek movies in 43 days. Thats what they call "shattering" a record. lol

I am so glad the Dark Knight beat that wretched Mummy movie

Yeah, but Mummy did take a lot of business from TDK, they pretty much had the same numbers. I loved the first two Mummy movies, but I swore this one off from day one.

Yeah but for the Dark Knight to do that amount of business and still beat a new release in it's third week, and considering the Dark Knight is one of those movies that prolly darn near everyone has seen by now...that's still an accomplishment. Doing the same numbers as another movie in it's opening weekend and still getting number one your third week out after having a massive haul already is something.

And I hatedl the Mummy movies. They were like broke down Indiana Jones movies to me

Yeah, I was waiting for the numbers this morning, im very glad DK did as well as it did. Im hoping it keeps this strong run as long as it can.

I enjoyed the Mummy movies as kinda thoughtless entertainment, I mainly watched because I like Brendan Fraser, which would be the only reaosn I may check out the DVD. Plus I have a crush on Rachel Wiesz because of those two movies. 😛

Lets all give cheers to The Dark Knight. I knew it was going to win the week.

I honestly thought Mummy would outsell The Dark Knight this weekend.

Seems I was wrong. 😮‍💨

I can equivocally say that The Dark Knight has a very strong chance of besting Titanic.

Hah, you guys should now never doubt me, I'm rarely ever wrong. And with the movie having $597 million worldwide, it'll beat Titanic.

I'm not mixing up anything...I know how everything is and I know that TDK has $597 million worldwide, and around $396 million domestically.

The Dark Knight was the best film ive seen. i used to run around dressed as the joker when i was a little kid all the time

You were implying that TDK at $597 million worldwide, was just about to pass Titanic's $601 million. But that's Titanic's domestic gross, not the worldwide total.

I never implied anything. I said since it has $597 million worldwide, it has a good chance of catching up with Titanic worldwide, I never mentioned anything about the domestic gross.

It was No. 1 again this weekend, adding another $50 million in the past week, bringing it to $441 million domestically. It's going down at a slow rate, not dropping off dramatically. It still has a good shot.
How big could Tropic Thunder and The Clone Wars open at this week?
