He, it's great TDKR will probably make a billion dollars.

But one billion dollars is the new 900 million dollars.

Yes, if the movie has 3D. But this is not the case. The last 2D movie which hit 1 billion mark was precisely TDK. It's very difficult that a 2D movie can get 1 billion

[pinocchio]

$1B WW is still a special milestone to cross and will be for at least another few years.

Hardly, since both Avatar and Titanic both crossed 2 billion.

Yet where is the third 2B movie ?

Avatar was a 3D global phenomenon and Titanic needed a big 3D re-release to pass $2B WW. Will be a while before another film hits that $2B WW figure so $1B WW is still special for now. Especially for a 2D film like TDKR. Edited August 14, 2012 by JCS

You're being overly harsh. $1b is still a big landmark regardless of James Cameron.

pinocchio is beyond annoying. Ignore time.

When I first got interested in BO $100m DOM in rentals was the big milestone - and we stilll notice when a star fails to make $100m DOM.

If TDKR makes 1.1 billion USD worldwide in the end it will be the "7th highest grossing movie ever unadjusted".That's great. Congrats to the Nolan bros and the WBs.But it's not even close to flicks like HP1 or ID4 that once were the "second highest grossing movies ever". And so on.

So your point: What TDKR is doing is nothing specialright ?So pale, so weak ...

pinocchio is so close to call TDKR a failure.

The fact it's even sniffing a billion without the Joker, without a dead actor fueling hype, and with such a bleak/humorless tone is impressive.

It will be number three this year anyway worldwide. Nobody could ever call it a failure.

if you follow his argument, TDKR is as special as Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, that has also been No7 WW for a time.
