Question
On the The Dark Knight's (2008) Rotten Tomatoes webpage, it says the movie earned "$2.0M at the box office (gross USA)".

Two million seems low for such a popular movie.
Were the earnings really that low, or is that an error? For example, Wikipedia lists the box office earnings as $1.006 billion. So which site is right?
Answer
The movie has made over $1 billion to date
Your own instinct is telling you that $2m is likely to be wildly incorrect, as indicated by the amount quoted in Wikipedia, hence the downvotes your question is receiving.
Sites that specialize in movie finances, such as Box Office Mojo will show you in detail how the movie performed, including:
- Making $158 million in the US opening weekend alone
- Grossing $1.006 billion to date
