Talk about escalation!
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Barbie has become Warner Bros. new domestic box office champ, which highlights the phenomenon of the studio's previous record holder, The Dark Knight. An instant cultural phenomenon, Great Gerwig's inevitable franchise starter is one of the rare major successes of 2023's box office, reminding everyone of the powerhouse performance cinematic releases are still capable of.
The Dark Knight's Warner Bros Record Time Shows Just How Huge The Movie Really Was To call Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight a cultural phenomenon during its 2008 release would be putting it lightly. Still hailed as one of the best superhero movies of all time, The Dark Knight rode a wave of universal acclaim with its story of escalation from Batman Begins, Nolan's grounded take on the Caped Crusader, and Heath Ledger's portrayal of the Joker.
Barbie's Record Break Further Proves The Dark Knight's Success The sheer amount of time it would take for another Warner Bros. movie to overtake The Dark Knight's domestic record illustrates how much Nolan's Batman sequel has cemented itself into the cultural zeitgeist. Barbie arguably benefited from the added advancements of social media as a conduit for word-of-mouth to spread, which is present but far less pronounced when The Dark Knight was released.
