"Any day now, 2008's biggest blockbuster The Dark Knight will be topping $1 billion worldwide. Warner Bros tells me that it's already reached $997.5 ($528.5 million domestically and $469 million internationally) since its North American release on July 18th. It's already the 2nd highest domestic grossing pic of all time behind only the $600.8 million domestic haul of 1997/1998's Titanic. And it's the 4th highest worldwide grossing pic behind #1 Paramount/Fox's Titanic ($1.8B), #2 New Line's The Lord of the Rings 3: The Return of the King ($1.1B), and #3 Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest ($1.0B). (None of these rankings are adjusted for inflation or ticket prices.)"

If they're truly serious about this film making the 10 figure mark, they have got to stop screwing around and release this film in a large amount of dollar theaters by next weekend and not a day later. The fact that they're into the 17th weekend with this film and it has yet to go up in theater counts is ridiculous. Some films don't even wait till the 10th weekend to pump their #'s up.
