After six weeks in U.S. movie theaters Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire has overtaken
Chamber of Secrets in box-office receipts. Currently Goblet of Fire is the second highest grossing Harry Potter movie.
Over the holiday weekend Goblet of Fire made $5.72 million and is currently at the number 10 spot. Overseas the movie has garnered $497 million for a total global box-office take of $759.4 million, just $30 million behind Prisoner of Azkaban.
Thanks to Shannon for the reminder of my weekly updates.
UPDATE: Actual weekend figures have been given and Goblet of Fire took in $6.4 million over the holiday weekend and is currently ranked at number 9.

I am still hoping it tops PoA. I did love PoA but if GoF surpasses it, it will only mean that the Potter fenomenon is growing.
I hope HPANA will tell us that it passed all the movies this year.

Yay! We went to see GOF again over the weekend so I guess my family and I helped contribute to the movie's $5.72 million during the Christmas holiday.

Wow. And it's only been six weeks? This movie is going to shatter the old income, then. It's easily got another few months.

Thats awsome! Way to go for GOF!!..I tell you guys that movie was cool..sure there were moments when it let me down like when they didnt show the entire Quidditch World cut scene and a couple of other things, but hey thats what usually happens in book to movie films. I loved seeing the people that were choosen to play the Tri Wizard champions, especial Fleur(she held up ok)....All in all in my opinion GOF was the best Harry Potter Film that I've seen so far and I think it has a chance of being the #1. Can't wait for the Order of Phoenix though..but seriously for now..GOF is gonna keep moving up..and you just gotta love it :-)

POA was good, but I really enjoyed GOF more. I hope it does overtake POA in sales as I think the actors' performances were superior - although I will allow that POA has some very striking imagery.
