After a record-breaking run at the North American box office, it seems that The Dark Knight is starting to get to the end of its run, having now posted its first sub-million day for Wednesday 27th August with $986,453. However, it should be noted that the Caped Crusader still finished in third position which is still incredibly impressive given the nature of front loaded box office runs that prevail in this day and age.

The Dark Knight is currently sitting with a total of 492.6 million which represents 82% of the box office for current reigning domestic box office champ, TITANIC. It won't get there, but it should settle nicely in to second position with around 520 million. Not a bad effort at all considering the Batman franchise took such a huge nose dive only a decade ago with the horrendous Batman and Robin.
