‘Dark Knight’ First Numbers
Nikki Finke over at Deadline Hollywood Daily is reporting that the midnight showings of ‘Dark Knight’ beat out ‘Star Wars 3: Revenge of the Sith.’ As of 7am pst., the midnight shows $18.4 million takeĂ‚ broke the previously held recordĂ‚ of $16 million set byĂ‚ Sith in 2005. The question now is will The Dark Knight top Spiderman 3′s $59.84m opening day and its all time bestĂ‚ opening weekend record of $151m.
say it together …Yes it will!
where are your numbers on Nikki’s contest?
I’m workin on it…HAHAHA
I think it would be amazing if it did beat Spiderman, I am hoping. The Dark Knight deserves the number one spot
I agree, I dont want to see Spiderman 3 at the top of that list..it wasnt even that good! Dark Knight should snag it this weekend.
It has a pretty nice head start if it really did make 18 million just at the midnight showings. I think it can definitely beat the opening day record, but the opening weekend may be a close race. Fingers are crossed.
