Dark Knight tops $1bn mark at box office Dark Knight tops $1bn mark at box officeThe Dark Knight has smashed the $1 billion mark at the worldwide box office, becoming only the fourth film to reach ten figures. Warner Bros. said the film has made "a staggering $1,001,082,160" and is the highest-grossing movie for the studio to date. The Dark Knight is now the second-highest grossing film domestically of all time and joins 'Titanic', 'The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King' and 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest', in making over a $1 billion at the box office. Dan Fellman, president of domestic distribution, said: "From our initial record-shattering opening weekend to the unprecedented momentum of the film’s box office run, we could not be more proud of The Dark Knight's unparalleled success. "We salute our filmmakers, cast and crew on making cinematic history." The Dark Knight has eight Academy Award nominations, including one for Heath Ledger, who is tipped to receive a posthumous Best Supporting Actor award for his portrayal of The Joker. http://www.karoo.co.uk/article.asp?id=19038526&cat=entertainment Thats a LOT of cash!! Mind, I have to say I did think it was an awesome movie, and Heath Ledger played an amazing joker in it. At one point you almost feel for him in it and can almost take his side.. Brilliant acting!
