Was there really any doubt about The Dark Knight taking the top spot at the box office again this week? Theatres across North America were jammed with people trying to see the movie for a second and third time, only to find that the showings were still sold out. The movie took in another $75 million, far exceeding the closest competition, which was Step Brothers. Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly’s comedy scored a decent $30 million, while The X-Files: I Want To Believe was not quite so lucky. The movie took the #4 spot with just $10 million. I bet they’re really regretting opening that movie so close to The Dark Knight.

1. The Dark Knight — $75.6M
2. Step Brothers — $30M
3. Mamma Mia! — $17.9M
4. The X-Files: I Want to Believe — $10.2M
5. Journey to the Center of the Earth — $9.41M
