Anyone want to predict how much money Dark Knight will make on its first weekend? Iron Man made $100 million, I would expect Dark Knight to do at least as well.... probably even more so because of the circumstances.
I'm leaning toward record territory here. I mean even my freaking Mom is planning to see it on opening weekend.

There hasn't been a real projection yet, though tracking is very very strong (significantly higher than Iron Man) and expected to get even better after Hancock opens.
The IMAX units are also going to drive the gross up as those have much higher ticket prices.
Dark Knight would have to beat the $151M put up by Spiderman 3 in the three day gross. That might be hard to reach. The #2 and #3 slots however are definitely in range though I'd say (POTC: Dead Mans Chest at $135 and Shrek 3 at $121).
