Sedangkan The Dark Knight hanya mampu meraih angka 16,8 juta dollar Amerika.
Apa yang diraih oleh Tropic Thunder membawa angin segar bagi Stiller. Pasalnya pada hari-hari pembukaan, film produksi DreamWorks-Paramount ini sempat mendapat kecaman dari kalangan penderita cacat. Mereka mengancam akan memboikot. Belum lagi kekhawatiran Robert Downey Jr yang mengatakan perannya kali ini dikhawatirkan akan menimbulkan kontroversi.
Namun di lain pihak, The Dark Knight masih berhasil menjadi yang terbaik dalam seluruh penjualan domestiknya, yaitu dengan mencapai 471,5 juta dollar AS. Dan Warner Bros melalui Kepala Distribusinya, Den Fellman, memperkirakan film ini bisa mencapai angka 530 juta dollar Amerika, untuk penjualan di domestik Amerika saja.

What if mankind had to leave Earth, and somebody forgot to turn the last robot off? After hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for, WALL•E (short for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) discovers a new purpose in life (besides collecting knick-knacks) when he meets a sleek search robot named EVE. EVE comes to realize that WALL•E has inadvertently stumbled upon the key to the planet's future, and races back to space to report her findings to the humans (who have been eagerly awaiting word that it is safe to return home). Meanwhile, WALL•E chases EVE across the galaxy and sets an adventure into motion. Joining WALL•E on his journey across the universe is a cast of characters including a pet cockroach and a heroic team of malfunctioning misfit robots.
