If you still had any doubt about how big The Dark Knight’s opening weekend haul is looking to be, check out this bit of news. The New York Times is reporting that some IMAX theaters are now offering 6 a.m. showings of The Dark Knight. Yeah, that’s right, showings at 6 in the morning! So far, theaters in Chicago, San Diego and Minnesota are participating.
I’m cool with the midnight screenings, but is there really a demand out there for watching a movie at 6am?
The Dark Knight opens (hopefully huge) on July 18, 2008 in conventional and IMAX theaters.
