Yeah, it's not going to beat Avatar. But TDK would be within reach if TDKR breaks Potter's opening weekend record. TDK had huge legs, and I expect that a Batman film of similar quality would have similar legs...it could do $500m+ domestic.

I'm glad Marion Cotillard associated herself with this movie. She will only play a small supporting role in it, but this could be yet another hit movie for her in the US.
In other news, she's started shooting a new movie with Joaquin Pheonix and Jeremy Renner this month, called 'Low Life'. Not quite sure if they plan on releasing it this year, but the plot alone promises to give Marion another critical-acclaimed movie.

Marion Cotillard will play a woman attempting to immigrate from Poland. Her American dream turns into a nightmare. While sailing to Ellis Island and a new start, her sister grows deathly ill and she is forced to trade sexual favors for medicine and food to keep her sister alive. Once they land, she is warned to keep quiet about what happened. Though she does, she walks away with immigration papers that deem her a woman with bad morals. With no place to go, she falls prey to a charming sleazebag (Phoenix), who persuades her to turn tricks in New York. Renner is close to signing on to play the sleazebag’s cousin, a magician who sweeps the young woman off her feet and is her best chance to escape the nightmarish life she has fallen into.

I can already imagine her Oscar winning speech.
