Note: Mr. T busts through a house on the back of a pickup to shoot snickers at a speedwalker. Amazing. (was banned for being homophobic in the UK)
Posted by dumbfounder, at 04:12PM 07/25/08 : Dark Knight vs Titanic
Note: My take: It will make it to #2 fairly easily, and probably top the $500m mark. But it will take a commitment from the studio to market the film more and let it run for longer than the typical blockbuster to break $600m. If the studio is proud, and they want the record, I think it's theirs for the taking. If they take the greedy route and push it to dvd asap, then it doesn't stand a chance. Predictions: $300m broken on Sunday, then $400m broken by August 6th, then taking over the #2 spot by August 15th. tags: the dark night

Note: The people of the Andean mountain range have long seen the condor as more than just a big bird. With a wingspan stretching up to 10 feet and a cruising altitude higher than 16,000 feet above sea level, this majestic creature was considered a supernatural being, a source of national pride and even an immortal divinity. tags: condors
