Dark Knight did it again. I do firmly believe that opening early hurt Pineapple Express. Word of mouth probably was lukewarm and the truly excited people saw it on Wednesday. So they sort of went out of their way to lose the weekend. Well done, gents.

Can no one beat The Dark Knight?

I am not sure if the 50% drop from the Pineapple Express opening day number of $12 million on Wednesday to only $5.9 million on Thursday is a sign of bad word-of-mouth or what, but it appears the film won&#039;t be able to dethrone The Dark Knight [...]]]></description>

#1 movie predicted correctly: 0 Weeks in a Row

1. Pineapple Express
B-Luv thinks Dark Knight will take it again. He might be right. The Wednesday opening will bleed a bit of the box office but I think the positive word of mouth will help even more.
Estimate: $26.1 million


2. The Dark Knight
Dark Knight has stayed very healthy [...]]]></description>

When I started writing about movies way back in 2003 I didn&#039;t know shit. I looked at films on a surface level only. I had always loved movies, but I loved them for how big the explosions were and how cool the effects were&#8230; that is&#8230; for the most [...]]]></description>

I&#039;ve never been so happy to be wrong. It was an extremely interesting weekend as Dark Knight started $2.6m behind Mummy 3 before a giant rally on Saturday. I&#039;m still not sure these numbers will stick, but for now let&#039;s give Batman his due.

Yep, The Dark Knight gets two measly weekends as the box office champ and then it&#039;s done. Sure, they were record breaking weeks, and sure this film doesn&#039;t deserve to win. But there you have it. I don&#039;t make rules.
