Dark Knight on top spot again


Want some big news, besides the fact that the Olympics have started on Friday, how about the fact that The Dark Knight has topped the box office for it's fourth weekend. That's right, The Dark Knight took in another $26 million this weekend beating out the new movies Pineapple Express and Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2. Right now, The Dark Knight stands around $440 million at third place of the all time box office. It's funny it has taken four weekends to get to the third place of the all time box office. It should hit number 2 in that chart in another week beating out Star Wars and right behind Titanic. That is just amazing. Yeah, Titanic was number one on box office weekends for 15 weekends, but during those times there weren't really anything coming out to confront it. This summer, there have been a lot of great movies that have confronted it, so in that sense, The Dark Knight is a true phenomenon this summer.

Yes, it definitely is a phenomenon. I wonder if it will be toppled by something this weekend.
