| | |  'Pirates' ties 'Goblet' for most DVD's sold on first day
In its first day in video stores, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest sold nearly 5 million copies Tuesday, according to Disney's Buena Vista Home Video, thereby tying the record set by Warner Bros.' Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire in March.
Disney reportedly shipped 20 million copies (of Dead Man's Chest) to retailers and has said that it hopes to break the existing record held by its own The Lion King of 30 million DVD and VHS copies sold.

I bought it on the second day ... so take that evil Disney  and I thought IMDb sucked why are we using them as a source?
It is a brilliant movie though ... but if you really wanna break records ...  I'm working on the script for the ultimate uber movie extravaganza ... it's called ... are you sitting down?
The Phantom Menace of Harry Potter and the Pirates Lord of the Caribbean Rings Kong Chronicles of Neverland Double Oh 7
Starring Rupert cuz he's cute, and Daniel Craig cuz he's hot, and Johnny Depp cuz he's both ... and Keira Knightley cuz we need a girl in the film ... oh yeah and Joan Collins cuz I love her ...
Directed by yours truly of course.

I figured this news was probably accurate so I went with it. Haven't seen anything about it elsewhere or I may have used them. Quote:
