The Dark Knight - Slaying competition for the third week in a row!
No matter where you look, Nolan’s The Dark Knight has been out-smarting any other competition for the third successive week! This, as FirstShowing declares is ‘history being made this year’!
The most recent block-buster to compete with Batman is The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor that had done a business of $ 42.5 million by the end of last week where as The Dark Knight stood mighty high at $ 43.8 million.
I couldn’t be more happier to hear this. Whoever thought that the Chinese Mummy could outclass The Dark Knight should shove his head up where the sun does not shine. TDK is way out of it’s league and the figures further strengthen that. Personally, this should serve as a final nail in the coffin for the Mummy franchise. They must not make a fourth, as the ending of the movie suggests (Mummies in Peru! God damn it!).
All hail the Dark Knight!

Ledger’s acting and Nolan’s direction is a force to reckon with. Was batman in the movie too? Didn’t notice really!
