DARK KNIGHT Light Up Box Office – $155 Million and Counting
July 21st, 2008
One of the best reviewed films of the year had a stunning opening this weekend with an estimated take in excess of $155 million while playing on 4,366 screens. Apparently that wasn’t enough screens because the weekend was a virtual sellout and HOLLYWOOD REPORTER published a report of tickets selling on Ebay for around $50.
There is extensive coverage of the DARK KNIGHT box office saga at DEADLINE HOLLYWOOD DAILY.
