I think it didn't do as well as PoA because of the rating. Lots of little kids probably went to see the first three, but like in my local newspaper, there have been articles warning about the...gruesomeness of GoF.

I think it didn't do as well as POA because it's PG-13. This rating might have caused the movie to lose some younger viewers.

Actually, last year for the opening day of Prisoner of Azkaban, schools in our district got the day off.

I thought that it would beat the rest of the HP movies. But still, the money they earned was amazing.

That's nice!.
Although I didn't see the movie [here in Argentina we are having the premier Wednesday 23th ...and I'm going!!] it looks extremely good, so I'm happy that they are doing well.
It surprised me however, that PoA did better in the first day, since I believe this created much more expectation and the fact that Voldemort is appearing and a lot of little details would have made me believe they were going to do better than PoA did.
But, anyway, that's a lot of money for only one day!. I can't wait for Wednesday.

Yeah well, I just saw the movie and the tickets were sold out so we had to get tickets for the next show.  Oh well, THE MOVIE ROCKED OUT LOUD! The movie was full of action, the characters were funny, and there was a lot of emo! OMG Rupert was so sexy! I thought it was kinda funny when he told Harry to **** off!
