It was two weeks ago that Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince broke through the $292 million barrier that Order of the Phoenix set to become the second-highest-grossing Harry Potter film yet.  (Sorcerer’s Stone, being the first, made $318 million.)  Now it’s knocking on the door of the $300 million barrier.

MuggleNet uncovered what’s supposedly the box art for the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince 2-disc DVD: As striking as the modern London background is, it seems a bit disingenuous now that we know the much-heralded “attack on the bridge” scene lasted all of thirty seconds.  The rest is all Hogwarts and dim lighting and quills.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince made $17.9 million in its third weekend in theaters — beating G-Force, the movie that topped Harry the previous weekend.  In addition, Half-Blood Prince was down only 39% from last weekend.  That’s a smaller-than-normal drop, which Movie Cultists notes is thanks to the film showing up on hundreds of [...]

Just a friendly reminder that starting this weekend, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will debut in IMAX theaters, now that the month-long exclusive run that Transformers 2 booked is over. Since IMAX theaters are typically more expensive (around $15 a ticket), this will probably soften the fall that Half-Blood Prince takes in its third weekend.  [...]
