‘The Dark Knight’ surpasses $400 million

Shrek 2 broke the $400 million mark in 43 days, but that’s no match for our favorite super hero.  “The Dark Knight”  surpassed that mark in 19 days with $405.7 million, breaking yet another record.  The most highly anticipated of the franchise, it’s done wonders for DC and for the movie industry as well.  Although it fell a few million short of Spiderman’s biggest third weekend ($45 million), the franchise has much to be proud about.
