[FONT=arial,helvetica][SIZE=-1]Add another entry for "http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1809271891/infothe dark knight" in Hollywood's record books: The Batman sequel has climbed past $400 million at the box office in just 18 days, the fastest pace ever, a studio executive said Tuesday. [/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial,helvetica][SIZE=-1]As of Monday, "The Dark Knight" had taken in $400.03 million domestically, according to distributor Warner Bros. [/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=arial,helvetica][SIZE=-1]Jeff Goldstein, general sales manager for Warner, said the film hit that mark in less than half the time it took for the previous record-holder, "shrek 2," which crossed the $400 million level on its 43rd day of release

[/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=arial,helvetica][SIZE=-1] "The Dark Knight" is now No. 8 on the all-time box-office charts, and it should move up to No. 7 on Tuesday, passing the $403.7 million haul of the original "spider man." That will make "The Dark Knight" the top-grossing comic-book adaptation ever[/SIZE][/FONT]

even if dark knight overtakes titanic's domestic sales of 600 million US, it wudnt have sold as many tickets as titanic, unless it does over 900 million US, because now the ticket prices are higher compared to when titanic was released.

i dont think so. the weekend income is now reducing. opening weekend it was about 120 as i remember and now it's 42. it will keep reducing and dark knight will smell titanic's glory and will stop few millions back :P hope this won't beat titanic :)
