BREAKING BATNEWS: Word just over the transom says The Dark Knight has broken $400 million in domestic box office in just its 18th day of release — a new record surpassing Shrek 2's previous 43-day milestone. Defamer sources attribute yesterday's nudge to Al Gorman, a 44-year old plumber from Columbus, Ohio, in whose name Warner Bros. commemorated "the Gorman Seat" at the AMC Lennox Town Centre 24 with a special plaque and new black upholstery. Gorman's health insurer, meanwhile, promptly canceled his coverage on account of his newly accursed exposure to drug overdoses, car rolling and kin-assaults. [Variety]

Somewhere, Suri is asking Tom, "Why is mommy crying?"

@RonMwangaguhunga: And Tom is saying, "Because there are always suppressives around that hate us, sweetheart. They hate me and Uncle Will and Aunt Kirstie and all of us. Mommy always fights them, but it's hard sometimes."

It's okay, Katie. There'll be a Dawson's Creek reunion special soon. Call James and set it up.

Actually, if you factor in the additional $203,700,000 it made at the Foreign box office, the Dark Knight has a grand tally of
$619,211,467 so far. Pretty impressive indeed.
