Harry Potter Kickin’ Butt at the Box Office

As Harry Potter’s wizardry skills keep growing, so do his box office powers.

Coincidentally, as Hermione keeps growing so does the male population’s … uh … thingies.

I like Hermione (Emma Watson). She makes me feel funny down there. I digress, but what do you expect from Horndog? Getting back to the real subject of this post, Harry Potter fans will be happy to know that in its first five days of release, “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,” the fifth film based on the J. K. Rowling books, sold an estimated $140 million in tickets. That was enough to break several records, including biggest opening on a Wednesday and biggest five-day non-holiday total.

The tally marks the strongest five-day performance in the movie franchise’s history, according to Box Office Mojo, an online tracking service. The second highest belongs to the fourth film, “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire,” which earned $119.7 million in its first five days in 2005.

“The Order of the Phoenix” had a three-day weekend total of $77.4 million. It also opened to robust receipts internationally, with about $190 million. Warner Brothers said the movie outperformed its predecessors in most countries and broke a handful of sales records.

Ha ha ha. LOL! I agree, I am sick of hearing about Harry Potter too! It’s like the big news of the day that the last book came out and he is going to get killed. Kill Harry Potter! LOL.
