SMAC - SHOWS, MOVIES & CHICKS

THE DARK KNIGHT is still regining the american BOX OFFICE.
Not even big franchise contender THE MUMMY - TOMB OF THE DRAGON EMPEROR
could claim the BO throne against BATMAN.
THE DARK KNIGHT is on top of the domestic box office for the third week in a row, taking in an estimated $43.8 million and edging out the debut of Universal's MUMMY, which took in $42.4 million.
MUMMY bested KNIGHT on a per-theater basis, however, coming in with an average of $11,303 at 3,760 theaters versus $9,939 for Knight at 4,266 theaters. The results left KNIGHT sitting on the edge of $400 million at $395 million after 17 days in release. Many analysts predicted the film could cross the magic number by today (Monday), it's 18th day in release, thereby setting yet another record.
Previously the record for hitting $400 million in ticket sales in the shortest amount of time is held by last year's SHREK THE THIRD, which did it in 43 days. Many analysts have also begun predicting that the movie has a strong possibility of surpassing TITANIC, which holds the record as the biggest earner of all time with $601 million.
