Dark Knight at No. 2 as biggest movie ever

Will Titanic ever lose its berth as the biggest movie of all time? The Dark Knight is racing up the ranks, but the Batman sequel will stall at No. 2 with about $510 million to $520 million, Warner Bros. Pictures predicts. That's far from the $601 million haul of Titanic, which set sail in December 1997. (Adjusted for inflation, both movies are dwarfed by the $1.4 billion haul for 1939's Gone with the Wind.) The buoyancy of Titanic is traceable to teenage girls from Toledo to Tokyo to Timbuktu. They lined up over and over again to shed tears for Leonardo DiCaprio's heroic character, and helped writer-director James Cameron's maritime epic make $1.8 billion worldwide. Fast-forward 10-plus years, and The Dark Knight has soared to an incredible $441.6 million domestically and $263.5 million internationally through just its first four weekends. In crushing a multitude of speed records, the superhero saga has stoked speculation that the Titanic record will finally run into an iceberg. In any event, such an analysis soon could be rendered moot. For there's one simple reason the box office party likely will end sooner rather than later for Dark Knight and it's spelled D-V-D.

    What if it is re-released before, during and after the Oscar buzz. And Obviously the more awards it wins the more money it will make. (I think it has a chance to top 600M, if the nominations and awards are numerous).Also, if if is re-released through IMAX format it might intrigue more people. And we can\'t forget the international audience if it is re-released there too. It might have a chance to catch \"Return of the King\" as the number 2 alltime worldwide.
