The Dark Knight<\/strong>, which opened at a then-record $158.4 million weekend.<\/p>\nThere are a number of questions to ask. One, is there any possibility of the film overtake Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2<\/strong>‘s \u00a0record $170 million opening weekend. Two, if it does break the record, how long will the film hold it? I’d say, not much farther than July 20, 2012, as that’s when the final installment of Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy (and\u00a0eagerly awaited sequel to The Dark Knight<\/strong>), The Dark Knight Rises<\/strong>, opens. Third, will it have the same kind of legs The Dark Knight\u00a0<\/strong>had, as that film earned enough in its theatrical run ($533,345, 358) to garner a spot at #3 on the all-time grosses chart. I guess we’ll see.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
