The Dark Knight holds off The Mummy
Brendan Fraser’s turn in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor failed to shake The Dark Knight off the top spot in this week’s box office figures.
It was a third week at number one for the Batman movie, whose £4 million-plus takings were far above The Mummy’s £2.9 million takings.
In third place was the film version of the Mamma Mia! Musical which took £2.7 million, while animated summer smash Wall-E was fourth on £1.4 million.
There were new entries at numbers five and six thanks to teen dance movie Make It Happen and Bollywood’s Singh is King. The X Files, which was at four last week, slumped to tenth place.
It is the Dark Knight which continues to be successful, however, having already passed milestones like the $300 million faster than any film in history.
The Batman Begins sequel stars Christian Bale as the eponymous hero and Heath Ledger as The Joker. His performance is leading many to predict an unprecedented posthumous Oscar win, following his death from a drug overdose earlier this year.

Hi, its great to read some info my a fellow nutrition and fitness enthusiast. I personally am not a fan of whey protein, I know that on paper it is very efficient. But i have always wondered of the dairy aspect. A protein straight from milk, something great for weight loss and weight gain depending on usage but in terms of some folks you may find yourself to have a low metabolic tolerance to dairy (some people find the same with wheat). I prefer to diversify and try different proteins. This is all my personal opinion of course but i find all our body’s are different and you must do your own search to find the right form of powder for you. i personally shift between promasil and myofusion with some mutant mass if i feel like bulking or even as a recovery drink after a power cardio workout (such as plyo). Try to visit http://www.squidoo.com/best-whey-protein-shakes if anybody want more info.
