The Dark Knight as a record breaking phenomena.


Oh, Heath Ledger.. i wish he was still alive so somebody could come up to him in an interview and ask "what inspired you in such a spine-chilling perfomance?" what would he say? we will never know..

and that's sad.

The Dark Knight has been out for 16 days and has already broken several records.

"The `Titanic' record has sat in a lock box for 10 years. It's a tall order but if any film has a chance to surpass that number, it's got to be `Dark Knight,'" Paul Dergarabedian said, president of Media By Numbers.

"THE DARK KNIGHT" RECORDS THUS FAR (IN ORDER OF OCCURRENCE):
1 - LARGEST NUMBER OF OPENING THEATRES WITH 4,366 (MORE THAN THE 4,362 DEBUT THEATRES OF "PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END IN 2007).

2 - BIGGEST MIDNIGHT PREVIEW GROSS WITH $18.489 MILLION IN 3,040 THEATRES (THIS BEATS "STAR WARS EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH" AND ITS $16.9 MILLION IN 2,915 THEATRES IN 2005).

3 - BIGGEST IMAX MIDNIGHT PREVIEWS SET AN NEW RECORD WITH $640,000 (THIS AMOUNT WAS APPROPRIATELY INCLUDED IN THE $18.489 MILLION PREVIEW NUMBER).

4 - BIGGEST SINGLE-DAY GROSS IN BOX-OFFICE HISTORY WITH $67,165,092 (THIS BESTS THE $59,841,919 SET BY "SPIDER-MAN 3" IN 2007).

5 - BIGGEST OPENING WEEKEND GROSS IN BOX-OFFICE HISTORY WITH $158,411,483 MILLION (THIS BESTS THE $151,116,516 SET BY "SPIDER-MAN 3" IN 2007).

6 - BIGGEST OPENING WEEKEND GROSS FOR AN IMAX RELEASE IN BOX-OFFICE HISTORY WITH $6,214,061 MILLION IN 94 THEATRES ($66,107 PER-THEATRE!) (THIS BESTS THE $4.7 MILLION SET BY "SPIDER-MAN 3" IN 2007) - IMAX SHOWING AT FULL CAPACITY $1.9 MILLION ON SATURDAY ALONE.

7 - BIGGEST SINGLE-DAY SUNDAY GROSS WITH $43,596,151 (THIS BEATS THE $39,937,865 SET BY "SPIDER-MAN 3" ON ITS DEBUT WEEKEND).

8 - FASTEST SPRINT TO $200 MILLION DOMESTICALLY IN JUST FIVE DAYS.

in case you haven't seen the movie yet (what the fuck is wrong with you?), here is one of the best moments from that bad guy that steals the show.




why so serious?
One Love.
