HOW COULD JOKER MAKE MORE MONEY THAN THE DARK KNIGHT?!?!?!?! HOW?!?!?!!!!

[let me write pop-science so that I can attempt to co-opt something people tried to demonise and distort it into something I can shoehorn into my agenda, trying to sound virtuous and superior in the process]


Or, for starters you can try some basic mathematics:

Dark Knight (2008) budget: $185m
Joker (2019) budget: $55m

:unsure:

Inflation.

I didn't look it up, maybe Joker did beat Dark Knight if you account for inflation, but every time you see "highest grossing film of all-time" just know that it only means so much as they almost never account for the inflation so they can have the headline.

Movies are also opening in more Cinemas compared to the past, especially with the vastly growing Chinese market, etc., yeah?

Not to take away from the Joker at all either. It’s nice to see not just “theme park” style films reaching the audiences.
