Batman has sent Spidey packing as king of Hollywood's box-office superheroes.

"The Dark Knight" took in a record $155.34 million in its first weekend, topping the previous best of $151.1 million for "Spider-Man 3" in May 2007 and pacing Hollywood to its biggest weekend ever, according to studio estimates Sunday.

"We knew it would be big, but we never expected to dominate the marketplace like we did," said Dan Fellman, head of distribution for Warner Bros., which released "The Dark Knight." The movie should shoot past the $200 million mark by the end of the week, he said.

Hollywood set an overall revenue record of $253 million for a three-day weekend, beating the $218.4 million haul over the weekend of July 7, 2006, according to box-office tracker Media By Numbers.

"This weekend is such a juggernaut," said Nikki Rocco, head of distribution for Universal, whose musical "Mamma Mia!" debuted at No. 2 with $27.6 million.

the movie is really good. I went on opening day and it was incredibly packed.

We had to sit in the front, which i didnt like. However, when the movie started i completely forgot about that and was totally blown away by how good heath ledger was as the joker.

Definitely the best movie he ever made. Its a shame he died.

Saraj stop pretending to live in Sarajevo. GOD DAMN you're so fake.
I've already checked your IP Address...Lets just say you live nowhere near Sarajevo and more towards the western hemesphere.





Anyhow, was this movie good guys??
I'm going to watch it with some girls tomorrow and I don't think it's best choice. haha
