BATMAN BEATS STAR WARS! “The Dark Knight” takes #2 all time domestic box office position

Well by the time you’ve read this “The Dark Knight” will have taken over the 2nd spot of all time domestic box office grosses.  Right behind “Titanic” and beating “Star Wars”,  “The Dark Knight” has made more movie history this year than any other.

Us Batman fans couldn’t be happier because this means there’ll never be an end to Batman movies and related DC Comics films.  Sure not all of DC Comics characters would make good blockbuster movies because the majority of them were created for a market and audience that no longer exists especially design sense wise.  DC could do for some fashion consultation but that would alienate long time fans.  Marvel and other companies never got themselves pigeonholed like that.

So here we are with a cartoon that’s 70 years old and has beaten the likes of master box office champs like George Lucas and Steven Spielberg.  Lucas still rules however having 3 films in the top 10 of all time and that’s just neat for us Lucas fans.

The big question remains however will “The Dark Knight” beat “Titanic” at the box office?  At %600 million “Titanic” remains the all time champ however “The Dark Knight” still has legs.  If it still collects just $3 million a day for 30 days, and that’s highly likely, then it’ll close in on that $600 million.  Let’s say it makes $3 million a day for 30 days from now.  That’d bring the film to about $550 million.  It’s highly feaseable that it would continue to bring in $1 million a day after that. Give it a month and a half to 2 months and it knocks “Titanic” from it’s throne. 

Even if we give “The Dark Knight” $1 million a day for 90 days it still puts it in range.  So at the earliest we’re talking the end of September or at the latest December for a titan to fall.

Sounds like a monster movie title don’t it?
