JK Rowlings Harry Potter Series Ranks #1

JK Rowling's "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallow's Part 2" made more money than any other movie franchise in history!


The "Harry Potter" movies have, of course, always done really well at the box office. Cumulatively the franchise has made more money than any other movie franchise in history! The eight films have made $2.223 billion, surpassing Star Wars $2.218 billion. "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" sold more than $32 million in advance tickets. Warner Brothers says that's a pre-opening record.

"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" isn’t just breaking records, it’s breaking every record. It already holds the record for biggest midnight screening earner of all time and now it’s the biggest single day earner of all time too. On Friday Deathly Hallows: Part 2 made over $92 million in just one day. It surpassed the previous record held by "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" which had over $72 million single day total. Deathly Hallows: Part 2 has the record for biggest opening weekend of all time. The "Harry Potter" series is ending in a big way, and stands a very real chance of ending up as the biggest movie of all time.

One would say this is it for Harry Potter, but you never know what may be around the corner. JK Rowling has proven that she is a wonderful writer with a great imagination! She has also gone on to create a new "Potter World" called Pottermore you can check it out at: http://www.pottermore.com/
