Heath Ledger’s final movie and Christian Bale’s second installment of the Batman series is still going strong in the box office. For the third week in a row The “Dark Knight” is in the driver seat and looking pretty good behind the wheel grossing 43.8 million dollars this weekend. The brings the total to 394.8 million dollars total since the much anticipated release three weeks ago. There were speculations that Brandon Fraser’s “The Mummy: Tomb of The Dragon Emperor” could make a run to knock off the dark one, but it fell short grossing 42.5 million dollars in it’s opening weekend.

It is expected that “The Dark Knight” will pass Shrek 2 for the fastest movie to gross 400 million dollars. That is not where it ends though. Batman and Joker are making a pretty good run at Jack and Rose from Titanic for the spot of highest grossing film of all time. We saw part one and were very impressed with the spin they put on the series, but we have not seen the second one. Lazy yes we know. We hear it is good, and well, the numbers don’t lie. So go check the movie out and keep checking back here to stay up to date on everything gossipy out there in the world. Where there’s gossip, we’re not far behind!
