Dark Knight sets new box office record

Dark Knight was number one at the box office this weekend (no surprise), and it received an income of $155.3 million, which is a new record for the most a movie has made in one weekend. Spider Man 3 held that position last year, not Dark Knight took over that position. It has also set a new record of making the most money in one day, with about $66 million. As well, on Thursday night, it also set the new record of earning the most during a midnight showing, with about $18.5 million. And as well, it has set the record for the most a Batman movie has made in opening weekend, or any weekend for that matter.
