Harry Potter and the All-Time Weekend Boxoffice Record


Deadline has the early Saturday and weekend boxoffice estimates, and this is what "frontloaded" looks like:  HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS (PART 2) plummeted by 52% from Friday (including midnights) to Saturday, with the result that its $44.2M on Saturday didn't even come close to the Spiderman 3 record of $51.3M for that day.  (These numbers would make it the 7th-best Saturday on record.)  Depending on final numbers, this could be the third-worst Saturday drop ever.  It also means Harry has little or no chance of beating Dark Knight's Sunday record of $43.6M.  However, it should still have enough in its tank to move past Dark Knight's all-time US weekend record of $158.4M--Warners' early estimate is $163M for the weekend.  The $394M all-time global opening record held by Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is still in play.

Stay with SHOWBUZZDAILY for the full weekend's estimates later today and all the latest on this exciting boxoffice weekend!
