So the question is will this movie break Titanic's domestic record of $600MM? Oh and I've yet to see Titanic. Another fact that I didn't know was that Titanic had a span of 17 weeks (or maybe it was 14) at the #1 spot. How sucky were movies in 1997?!

Nah, Christian Bale doesn't have the Leo sex appeal. It'll probably top out in the range of the Lord of the Rings movies.
I still haven't seen The Dark Knight yet! I'm trying to do imax and it's still sold out. :(

I saw Titanic 12 times... my girlfriend at the time was OBSESSED with DiCrapio and I had to suffer.

I haven't seen Titanic either. I've watched parts of it, but it really didn't grab my interest at all.
$300 Million is an MFT of dough, I'm impressed.

There is no reason for you to see that movie 12 times. Don't use the girlfriend excuse whipped boy.

Nothing wrong with a sensitive man!!!! I do believe Batman will break all the records.

Nothing at all wrong with a sensitive man, definitely something wrong with a man that goes to see Titanic 12x in the theaters though.

The only way I could suffer through Titanic more than once is to eagerly await the final sequence where everyone dies and start laughing at their floating bodies. I kid you not I actually laughed at that aloud in the cinema while people were crying next to me. I had funny looks after that.
I don't think Dark Knight would smash the record Titanic made. It'll come close, but I doubt it would. You'd need a sappy love story with an overplayed love song to top that. I somehow doubt "Titanic 2: Rose Meets Gilligan" would play big at the box office.

It might beat it due to increased ticket prices.

@RightOn: I don't have to go anywhere, we know you dragged her to that movie and when she tried to apply the moves you let it be known she wasn't going to ruin such a great cinematic experience.
