'The Dark Knight' Just Surpassed $400 Million


'The Dark Knight' crossed the $400 million U.S. gross milestone on Monday, after only 18 days in release.

Its closest competitor is 2004's 'Shrek 2', which grossed $400 million in 43 days!

'The Dark Knight' made it's way to $400,038,494 when it made $6 Million on Monday.

This is crazyness! Only 7 other movies have made more money domestically, But 'The Dark Knight' is on all there tails.


As of August 4, 2008:

08 - The Dark Knight - $400,038,494

'The Dark Knight' will come in 7th place by August 5, 2008 and will most likely make it's way all the way to 2nd place by the end of August 2008.

Will it beat 'Titanic' who knows at this point! I would love to see that happen. The film is brilliant!

I will keep everyone posted on the position of the film as the numbers come in!
