Harry Potter falls short of Twilight for midnight sales

Posted on 20. Nov, 2010 by in News

Even though Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows  Part 1 ranked in an amazing $24 million in midnight sales, it still didn’t beat Eclipse ($30 million) or even New Moon which brought in $26.3 million.

“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows — Part 1″ is on track for a huge opening weekend of more than $100 million. Now that it didn’t break any records in midnight shows, however, it’s less likely the picture will top the $158-million debut in 2008 of “The Dark Knight,” which stands as the biggest opening weekend ever, not accounting for ticket price inflation.

Reading this I couldn’t help but think what Breaking Dawn Part 1 will bring in. :)
