“Tropic Thunder” Beats “Dark Knight” in Box Office
Submitted by Bill Belew on Sunday, 11 July 2010One Comment
“Tropic Thunder” a comedy with Hollywood big names Ben Stiller, Robert Downey Jr., Jack Black and Tom Cruise, beat out “Dark Knight” last weekend. Of course, “Dark Knight” has been out for a month or so.
So far, “Dark Knight” has sold $471.5 million in tickets to become the second-highest grossing film in North America, replacing “Star Wars.”
“Dark Knight” has another $130 million to go to catch “Titanic” and the number one spot. Perhaps had the movie included a Michael Phelps race, it’d be there already.
Hollywood has taken in $6.3 billion so far this year, about the same as last year at this point.
What kind of movies do you like?

Ben Stiller is a good actor
