‘Dark Knight’ breaks billion mark

Film is fourth to top amount in global box office

"The Dark Knight" has become the fourth film to take in more than billion in worldwide box office. Warner Bros. made the announcement Friday afternoon, saying that the combined domestic and international gross had totaled ,001,082,160 to date — about 3 million domestically and 7 million overseas.
"Knight" had been about million short of the 10-figure mark when Warner Bros. re-released it into Imax screens on Jan. 23, the day after its eight Oscar nominations were announced. Grosses from Ecuador also helped nudge the Batpic over the mark, a spokeswoman said.
Only "Titanic," with .8 billion, "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" and "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest" have topped the billion-dollar worldwide mark previously.
"Knight" also is the second-highest domestic grosser of all time, trailing only "Titanic."
Warner also noted that it’s the largest 2-D digitally re-mastered Imax release in the domestic market with .6 million and worldwide with .9 million.
