It seems everyone has flocked to their local cinema to catch the latest & last movie featuring The Boy Who Lived! It managed the biggest domestic opening of all-time at $168.55 mil! This is $10 mil MORE than that of The Dark Knight (which opened at $158.4 mil).
Quoting indieWIRE (check the link at the end of this article):
It broke the midnight record for a domestic bow with $43.5 million (former champ The Twilight Saga: Eclipse at $30 million), the single stateside opening day with $92.1 million (besting Twilight Saga: New Moon’s $72.7 million), the biggest IMAX bow with $15.5 million (beating Alice in Wonderland’s $12 million) and the largest three-day haul for a Harry Potter film, out-pegging last November’s Deathly Hallows: Part 1, which rang up $125 million.
We all knew this was bound to happen! It was WB's one HUGE franchise that was coming to an end & they were hoping for a replacement cash-cow in Green Lantern. We all saw how that turned out. Let's just see how well Harry continues to fare at the BO though...
^Oh yeah! Harry & friends certainly have reason to smile with dollars in their eyes! LOL
