Will Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 break the Dark Knight's record?
“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2” set a single-day record with $92.1 million in ticket sales yesterday in the film’s opening in the U.S. and Canada, Hollywood.com Box-Office said.
The total includes record-breaking grosses of $43.5 million from midnight and early morning shows at 3,800 locations and $2 million in revenue at IMAX Corp. (IMAX) theaters, Hollywood.com said. The results for the Warner Bros. film’s opening at 4,375 theaters exceeded the $72.7 million one-day opening record of “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” in November 2009, Hollywood.com said today in an e-mailed statement.
Based on the early sales, the last of the “Harry Potter” pictures may exceed other records, including the $158.4 million July 2008 weekend record set by “The Dark Knight,” also a Warner release, the box-office tracker said.
“I feel pretty comfortable saying the three-day domestic record is in jeopardy,” Dan Fellman, Warner’s president of domestic theatrical distribution, said in an interview yesterday. “This is bittersweet because we own it ourselves with ‘The Dark Knight.’”
In the latest film, students and faculty at Hogwarts engage in a life-and-death battle with forces of evil as Harry faces a final showdown with his nemesis, Lord Voldemort.
Do you think Harry Potter can break the Dark Knights record for best weekend?

Have you watched the movies or read the books? He is suppose to be 17. Dan is obviously older but Harry is 17 and he is not even at school anymore. He skipped the last school year because he had to.reply - David L... Astoria... 2011/07/16 21:37:13
Dude I am talking about the Actor Age he doesn't even come close to looking like he is 17 and no amount of make up would change that. I have the book set and the movies. Hes supposed to be 17 and I was clearly making a joker about it. But when it comes down to it they did a horrible job making him look 17.reply -
okay. But is not funny. People don't really care that he is not 17 anymore. He is been playing the part for over 10 years. That is something.reply - Haley-Hit-An-AllTimeLow.♥ 2011/07/16 20:32:50It will break the Dark Knight's recordIt's pretty much definite.(:reply
