Adjust font size:

"The Dark Knight" topped the box office for a second weekend in a row in ticket sales at U.S. and Canadian theaters, becoming the first film to surpass 300 million U.S. dollars in 10 days, media reported Monday.

The sequel to "Batman Begins" took in 75.6 million dollars this weekend, giving it 314.2 million dollars since its July 18 debut.

That surpasses the record set in 2006 by "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest," which took 16 days to make 300 million dollars.

"The Dark Knight," starring the late Heath Ledger as the Joker, set five box-office records last week, including best opening-weekend sales with 158.4 million dollars and best single-day with 66.4 million dollars.

Dan Fellman, Warner Bros. head of distribution, expects that the epic Batman saga could reach 400 million dollars in about 18 days, which would beat the record "Shrek 2" set in 2004 when it made that much money in 43 days.

"What can you say? We've been getting a lot of repeat business coming in," Fellman said. "Our audience is expanding, like you would expect with terrific word-of-mouth and strong reviews. Our audience is getting a little bit older, that's the good news. We're finding the younger demographic, male and female, coming back."

Will Smith's superhero flick "Hancock," placed third with 8.2 million dollars.
