Dark Knight
“The Dark Knight” continues to obliterate box office records, crossing the $300 million mark in just 10 days.
The epic Batman saga grossed $75.6 million in its second weekend in theaters, pushing its domestic total to $314,245,000, Warner Bros. head of distribution Dan Fellman said Sunday.
That surpasses the record set in 2006 by “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest,” which took 16 days to make $300 million.
The latest Batman installment already had broken records for best opening weekend at $158.4 million and best single-day with $66.4 million. It’s also busted records in its showings on IMAX screens, making $16.3 million in its first 10 days.
