Post 'Goblet of Fire' biggest film of 2005 in UK

The BBC is reporting that 'Goblet of Fire' was the biggest selling film of 2005 in the UK, according to figures presented by Screen International.

Quote:
The fourth Potter movie has made £43m - £4m more than the year's second biggest movie, Star Wars: Episode III.

Last year's box-office champion was Shrek 2, which made £48m in 2004. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban came second with £46m.

I don't see it as much of a surprise, it was so hugely anticipated that everyone rushed to be the first to see it on the opening weekend alone. Mind you, beating starwars...still believeable hehe

I saw them both, they both are great movies in their own rights. I am glad GoF is the top one.

Wow, wouldn't it be great to have 43 million pounds?
Totally beside the question, I'm glad the movie made it to the top, and it wasn't very surprising anyway...given the amount of fans we know exist...and how many of us watched the movie more than once

I think GOF was far superior to Star Wars Episode III (not that I didn't like it).

Woohoo! Go GOF! But of course it was the best selling! It had Rupert Grint in it! I don't like the Shrek movies that much. They just aren't particularly interesting or funny. Fine throw stuff at me if you want to! I'm just expressing my opinions! It may not be a free country in England but it is where I come from! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A!
