Hardly surprising given the films that were out this year, and the local nature of the filming. Well done and congratulations to all.

Wow, that's cool. I think it came in fifth here in the States. I'm interested to see if it'll make it to the top in the US with the release of HBP and DH later on.

Spiderman III didn't top the Simpsons movie? That's ridiculous! It's obvious that Pirates would win the top!

Yes! Go OotP! Man, imagine what HBP and esp. DH is going to bring in. It's going to be ridiculous, in a good way, of course.

Well, seeing OoP at the top is not surprising to me. Movies as excellent as the HP ones deserve to win and be number one.

Very deserving to be the top movie. Totally impresses me. Yay, go Harry Potter. Brilliant films. I cannot wait until the 6th one is released. Looking forward to it very much. It's sad that one day there will be no more new Harry Potter movies to look forward to.

Awsome! The other movies were really good to but I guess they couldn't compare to OotP. I think JK deserves it for being such a great author! :)

Not surprising. Personally of the movie mentioned OOTP is my favorite. I wonder if DVD sales are taken into account or not?
