Box Office Spellbound By Harry Potter

With an astounding estimated worldwide box office total of more than $476 million, Warner Bros. Pictures’ “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2” shattered multiple domestic and international box office records in a history-making opening weekend. While the film topped the previous record holder, “The Dark Knight,” in dollars it must be noted that these box office figures includes the inflated cost of 3D theater tickets.
