Sadly our caped crusader lost the top spot to The Mummy this Friday; taking $12.7m versus Brendan Fraser’s $15.3m. However, coming back to the forefont on Saturday — Batman returned to the top with a take of $17.4m against Tomb of the Dragon Emperor’s $14.7m.
The weekend figures added another $43.8m to the TDK total and touching distance of the coveted $400m record. The Mummy made $42.4m, a close second, but a poor opening weekend for the movie.
