Box Office Report

Apparently the long wait for the new “Harry Potter” movie paid off for Warner Brothers because it had a huge opening.  It earned over $20 in midnight screenings on Wednesday and has earned $160 million total since its opening.

With the third “Ice Age” movie and the second “Transformers” joining “Harry Potter” in the top three, it was a good weekend for family movies.

Meanwhile, last week’s number one movie, “Bruno,” had a devastating second week, with its tally falling over 70% from its opening weekend numbers.

Here is a list of the top ten grossers this week (from the imdb):

1.) Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince $79.5 million ($160 million)

2.) Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs $17.7 million ($152 million)

3.) Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen $13.8 million ($364 million)
