WHHHHOOOOOOT! Congrads GOF! I think as more HP movies are released the more popular it gets.

i really dont doubt that is has passed PoA. i mean i rate this movie GoF a 10 becuz i love it so much i thought it was the best movie yet!!
also everyone was waiting for this movie to come out. they were really expecting it to be like the book.
still i wonder how some of my friends fell asleep during the movie...i cant believe it the nerve of them...

Well, I'm not surprised  Although personally I like PoA more than GoF, the last movie was amazingly well done. | |

Awesome, but let's keep in mind that PoA was released at the wrong moment (summer holidays), it's always more quite then when a film is released around xmas...
Not really. Summer and Christmas are the two biggest release times for cinema.

HP has more competition in the summer than in the fall, that's a given. You might have more time to see it over the summer...but why? Every week brings a slew of new releases. The fall is always better...especially for book movies...*points to CoN & King Kong* See? Kong would have done better in the summer. And CoN is raking in the dough like GoF is doing.
HP is not a witless summer film, so I have to agree it was released at the wrong time. Stupid WB people. I swear...if you'd gotten Jerry Bruckheimer and thrown in a lot of explosions maybe... But the real reason GoF is making more money? Dan in the tub (you know those crazy fangirls), and the Dragons didn't hurt either (that's for the guys), and for me? Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuupeeeeeeeeeeeeeert *madglomps Ru*

Oh cool! that's awesome! didn't POA beat out Titanic, which brought in the most money in the box office? Or maybe that was something else....
