In the face of four new opening movies, 'The Dark Knight' has fallen only two places this week, according to estimates published by Box Office Mojo.
Samuel L. Jackson's thriller 'Lakeview Terrace' opened at #1 and 'My Best Friend's Girl', 'Igor' and 'Ghost Town' all opening at points lower in the top 10.
'The Dark Knight took in almost $3 million in this, its 10th week of release. That was enough to out-perform 'The House Bunny' and 'Tropic Thunder', two movies that had previously higher in the rankings, and hang on to the #9 spot on the chart.
The bat-phenomenon's domestic take now stands at about $522 million.
The movie is still #5 on the All-time Worldwide box office chart. However there is less than $6million separating it from the #4 ranked 'Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone'. We'd expect it to surpass that movie in the next week, given current momentum.
