- morewood11, on 07/20/2008, -14/+580god spiderman 3 was disappointing
- jdunlop2179, on 07/20/2008, -22/+450Wanna see a magic trick?
- hendrix69, on 07/20/2008, -8/+422...its still the weekend
- dancandigg, on 07/20/2008, -29/+417Nice. But I always roll my eyes at these "record breaking" opening weekends, 'cause they don't take into account that the price of tickets goes up!!
- YouGotDugg, on 07/20/2008, -7/+357Those numbers are just awesome, as was the movie.
- darkchild82, on 07/20/2008, -19/+275I'm so happy it beat the absolute *****-fest that was 'Spiderman 3'. The Dark Knight deserves every praise that it's getting. (Now, if only Christian Bale's voice wouldn't change drastically every time he would put on the suit. It was the only minor complaint I had)
- goldenhearted, on 07/20/2008, -3/+236I helped.
- fnkydonuts, on 07/20/2008, -5/+190that never bothered me, if anything it added to the realism. in batman begins he learned to use fear as a weapon. By using an intimidating voice, it brings more fear to the person he is trying to get information out of. Also he is bruce wayne, a very rich person, who is known by everyone in gotham... now if he used his normal voice ... it wouldn't take long till someone figured out who he was based on his voice.
- ElectricRebel, on 07/20/2008, -15/+168Joker is just going to burn all of that money.
- cl0n3x, on 07/20/2008, -1/+149lol, space chimps came out today. I wonder how that's doing.
- leahcim, on 07/20/2008, -5/+136So we'll add $34.50 to the total up there.
- inactive, on 07/20/2008, -0/+128Quite possibly the best part of the entire incredibly awesome movie.
- pintomp3, on 07/20/2008, -0/+123true, though i don't think they've got up much since spiderman 3. number of tickets sold or showings sold out would be a better indicator.
- pintomp3, on 07/20/2008, -3/+125don't wear it out.
- RyeBrye, on 07/20/2008, -0/+108No... Just his half.
- MasterPlayer, on 07/20/2008, -4/+104At least The Dark Knight is an amazing movie which deserves to be at the top of the box office, unlike Spiderman 3.
- spoogieking012, on 07/20/2008, -2/+98and the dark knight really puts it in perspective how ***** it was
- marabout40, on 07/20/2008, -8/+98Not surprised. Great movie and Heath Ledger's final performance was excellent.
- Xihix, on 07/20/2008, -6/+85I took a look at my ticket for Spiderman 3, and I paid the same amount for it as I did with The Dark Knight. So uhh... Not really sure what you're talking about.
- Fadakar, on 07/20/2008, -3/+82That's what a midnight screening is...
- evil-doer, on 07/20/2008, -2/+70wait.. you kept your ticket for a spiderman movie? is that a keepsake to pass on to your grandchildren?
- chillypacman, on 07/20/2008, -2/+67The most awesome part is unlike Spider-Man 3, Dark Knight is actually a good movie so basically the success is going to continue and notjust slump after the weekend.
- leahcim, on 07/20/2008, -3/+62Price of tickets going up = inflation.
- mikemil828, on 07/20/2008, -1/+58Because it's not about money. It's about sending a message.
- Mutton, on 07/20/2008, -1/+49Love how people can't take a joke. Why so serious?
- bonlebon, on 07/20/2008, -11/+58With these numbers Indiana Bombed...
- Tenlow, on 07/20/2008, -3/+50What bothers me more is the fact that they've called the weekend already, but it's 9am on a sunday. Usually the weekend isn't over until after the weekend.
- teamparadox, on 07/20/2008, -6/+51Yea that was pretty good. Everyone in the theatre laughed at it which made me wonder what kind of people i was watching with. I get the humor in the situation but it was probably intended to be a more uneasy dont laugh out loud kind of humor imo.
- tech42er, on 07/20/2008, -0/+45Batman has no jurisdiction.
- noots, on 07/20/2008, -0/+43it's part of Bruce Wayne's "act" for batman, it's supposed to sound over-the-top and forced, he's trying to set himself apart from the other humans of gotham and add to the legend he's trying to create for his alter-ego batman.
- ThatEvilGuy, on 07/20/2008, -8/+50Because I is a serious cat.
http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f337/darcitamari ... - anubis2night, on 07/20/2008, -0/+41I wish someone would do a magic trick with the guys responsible for that p.o.s...
- PixelMagic, on 07/20/2008, -2/+43The Dark Knight quote here.
- Cole2026, on 07/20/2008, -5/+43Ever think about in in the way that maybe higher ticket prices may scare many people away from seeing movies in theaters as well? The Dark Knight was a rare exception for me, but I rarely see movies in theaters because of the 10 dollar ticket prices and the ridiculous concession food prices (usually I try to buy drinks and candy and the like at a K-Mart or something, but I can't really buy popcorn).
I agree with you though, it should be reported in numbers of tickets sold. - KibblesnBitts, on 07/20/2008, -3/+40do you really want hardcore fanboys whining about how nobody in the movie could parallel the voice of both bruce wayne and batman?
- ColinZeal, on 07/20/2008, -0/+37Holy smokes Batman! This is bigger than Aquaman!
- ElectricRebel, on 07/20/2008, -1/+37Some men just want to see the world burn
- tewstep, on 07/20/2008, -4/+40in a somewhat related note - rewatched "Begins" today - I'll admit when I first saw it I had no problem with Katie Holmes, but for some reason after seeing TDK...Maggie was a much better choice.
- JFallon126, on 07/20/2008, -0/+36That was the genius part of Ledger's Joker you couldn't help but laugh. Then afterwards you thought to yourself...why did I laugh...that was horrible. It was perfect.
- FrenchAnarchy, on 07/20/2008, -1/+36TA DAH!
- cinder, on 07/20/2008, -3/+38Why so serious? (srsly)
- 3amboo, on 07/20/2008, -4/+38It's all... part of the plan...
- Lastbeforefirst, on 07/20/2008, -0/+34I laughed. It was perfect.
- aphexcoil, on 07/20/2008, -2/+35Box office weekend is between 12:00am Friday and 12:00am Sunday.
(the more you know...) - Nasterisk, on 07/20/2008, -4/+36I don't know, I kind of prefer the daytime midnight screening.
- tech42er, on 07/20/2008, -2/+34This city deserves a better class of criminal and I'm gonna give it to them.
- NeoSporin, on 07/20/2008, -4/+34Well, then they would find out who he was, wouldn't they.
But yes, his voice did get incredibly annoying - ChairShot83, on 07/20/2008, -4/+34I just want my phone call.
- ColinZeal, on 07/20/2008, -1/+30Well, everything bombed compared to this.
- aronnyc, on 07/20/2008, -3/+31BTW 155m is just domestic US numbers, not worldwide. My cousin in Taiwan, my brother in Hong Kong all saw it. Once the worldwide figures come in, that will just blow people away.
