The 25-40 million weekend that it gets will be from complete hardcore fans of the show, and I think it would be very hard to find an X-files fan who also doesnt like Batman. 40 million worth of fanboys and natural frontloadedness will be an effect no matter what. 55-60% drop even if its amazing.

 Re: The Dark Knight Predictions-TV SPOT #3 OH SHIT!
Do not forget the Summer weekdays.
We always forget how huge they are for summer films (films after ID4).
They will be huge for this film... not DMC huge which is like the king of the largest summer weekdays, but they will add a lot to the film.
So if the films opens to 110 million, I really think it can pass 300 million due to those weekdays.

40m OW is like the absolute best case scenario.

 Re: The Dark Knight Predictions-TV SPOT #3 OH SHIT!
Well the film can open huge as the over predicted Hancock will be over by then and Hell Boy will be a sub 35 million dollar film.
It then has about 13 days till its real competition which is Mummy 3. That film could open to 50 million.
However in those 2 weeks of weekdays (about 8 in total) they will be huge for the film and will be the factor in letting it top 300 million.

110m seems enough for 300m total. Not only as you mentioned weekday numbers in July and early August will be very good for DK but it's also going to have huge IMAX business. What film after Dark Knight will take over its IMAX screens? It's going to be riding on IMAX for quite awhile.

Expect about 550m total domestic, about 10x the amount Incredible Hulk will make.

Once again, your all heavily, HEAVILY underestimating the HULK and giving far too much credit in thinking that the average joe who isn't a BATMAN fan is going to love TDK that much.. Really, it's only the fans of BEGINS that will even care about this and you know it..

The Hulk is not going to beat Iron Man and it sure as hell isn't going to outgross Indiana Jones. The Hulk will be lucky to get to 200 which the Dark Knight will pass.

Screw the fanboys, I'm glad Nolan is putting a big fat creative stamp on the Batman mythos with his version of the Joker. Make-up instead of white skin = brilliant.
