Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is a whisker away from overtaking 1989’s Batman and becoming Tim Burton’s second-highest-grossing film at the domestic box office. The 1989 Tim Burton Film Batman grossed $251 million at the domestic box office and remains his second-biggest grosser to date. However, after a solid fourth-weekend performance, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is on the brink of taking the spot.

Despite witnessing a 37% drop from last weekend, the film placed second at the domestic box office in its fourth weekend of release. New entry The Wild Robot took the top spot with over $11 million Friday and $35 million 3-day weekend.

Meanwhile, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice raked in $16.3 million (via Deadline) in the fourth weekend for a running total of $250.3 million by Sunday. The film not only crossed a huge domestic box office milestone but is also on the brink of becoming Tim Burton’s second-highest-grossing film.

The horror comedy will soon overtake 1989’s Batman’s $251.4 Million haul to become Tim Burton’s second highest-grossing film at the domestic box office. 2010’s Alice in Wonderland is his highest-grossing film, with $334.1 million. Here are Tim Burton’s highest-grossing films at the domestic box office.

  1. Alice In Wonderland (2010) – $443.1 Million
  2. Batman (1989) – $251.4 Million
  3. Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2014) – $250 Million
  4. Charlie and The Chocolate Factory (2005) – $206 Million
  5. Planet Of The Apes (2001) – $180 million

In 1989, Batman made $160 million overseas and $411 million worldwide. It is also Tim Burton’s second highest grossing film at the worldwide box office.

Meanwhile, Beetlejuice 2 earned $104 million overseas for a worldwide total of over $350 million.
