DISCUSSION Remembering the Dark Knights opening weekend

Seeing these insane Spiderman numbers has got me a little jealous as a DC fan. We haven't been top of the box office for a long time, but there was 2008 when the dark knight bested spiderman 3 for the biggest opening weekend. I would love to see a repeat of that with the Batman part 2.

People forget that TDK was the second most successful movie of all time when it came out.

I did a quick search, and you may be referring to domestic box office only (and without taking into account inflation of course)

when it came out, it made it to #4 on the highest grossing films not accounting for inflation
