'Harry potter' has $330 million debut weekend


    LOS ANGELES- the seventh Harry potter movie opened to a jaw-dropping $330 million in global ticket sales over the weekend, underscoring the magical powers of the Warner brothers marketing and distribution departments. That brawny total easily made "Harry potter and the deathly hallows: part 1 in north America, where the boy wizard generated an estimated $125.1 million. It was the second-biggest domestic opening for the Harry potter franchise; adjusting for higher ticket prices, "Harry potter and the goblet of fire" sold $127.4 million over it's first three days in November 2005. The strong results reflects a year long. Full-court press by warner's global marketing chief sue kroll, to position "deathly hallows" as a must-see event for children and adults alike. The advertising campaign played up the sophisticated, darker elements of the plot. Harry and pals are now grown up, for instance, and the good-versus-evil battle is intensifying as the story line
    reaches it's climax. The marketing materials also injected some edge into the franchise by taking risks like identifying the film only by the letters "HP7" and splattering posters and billboards with what looked like blood; one poster depicted the hogwarts castle in flames. It paid off: about 25 percent of the north American audience for "deathly hallows" was in 18-to-34-yr-old demographic, according to dan fellman, warner's president of domestic distribution. In comparison, about 10 percent of the audience for the first film in the series came from that age bracket. Mr fellman noted that "deathly hallows," which earned postive reviews, beat "Alice in wonderland" to be come the top opening movie in IMAX history. IMAX showings on 239 screens accounted for $12.4 million of the domestic box office and contributed $16.6 million (on 340 screens) of the international gross. At it's opening, "Alice" took in $12.1 million domestically from IMAX and $15.3
    million internationally, "no other franchise has been able to age and expand the audience this way, "Mr. Fellman said. Early last week, the first 36 minutes of "deathly hallows," about a quarter of the movie, leaked onto the Internet, prompting a fresh round of hand-wringing about piracy and leading to some worries that the movie's opening weekend would suffer as a result. Mr. Fellman said that the studio was investigating but that the pirated footage did not appear to hurt the release. ( if anything, the news media coverage of the leaked helped.) the Harry potter series, based on the books by J.K Rowling, will conclude with the 3-D release of the second half of "deathly hallows" on July 15. The franchise, overseen by Alan F. Horn, warner's chief operating officer, has generated some $6 billion at the global box office and billions more in DVD, television and merchandise sales. The success of "deathly hallows" underscores just how big a hole Warner,
    will have to fill once series ends, box office analysts said. The weekend was also big for Tron:legacy,"
    The forthcoming Walt Disney studios release; that picture's final trailer played before "deathly hallows" in a push by Disney to attract the broadest audience possible for the science-fiction adventure, which arrives in threaters on Dec 17 after three years of marketing. That Pre-Christmas weekend promises to bring one of the more brutal box office battles of the year. Typically, rival studios would steer clear of a release as enormous as Tron: legacy," but yogi bear" (Warner), the James L.Brooks comedy "How do you know" (Sony pictures entertainment) and "the fighter" (paramount pictures) will all enter the marketplace or expand to wide release on Dec 17, setting up an intense showdown going into the crucial Christmas holiday. Dreamworks animation's "Megamind" was second at the box office last weekend, selling about $16.2 million in north America in it's third week in theaters for a new domestic total of $109.5 million, according to Hollywood.com, which
    compiles ticketing statistics. "unstoppable," a thriller about a runaway train, from 20th century fox, was third, with $13.1 million in it's second week for a new total of about $42 million. The Warner comedy "due date", in it's third week, was fourth with $9.2 million. Russell crowe continued his streak "the next three days,"
    A lionsgate crime thriller that arrived with a thud in fifth place, at an estimated $6.8 million.

    Perfectly elegant!  What can you say?
    Kim declared that this dress is one of her favorites: “I love this white dress from our Bebe collection!

Kim’s Fragrance Launched at Sephora

    Finally, her fragrance was launched.  Excitingly blogging about it, she wrote: “What an amazing day! So many fans came out to support me at my NYC Sephora launch! I was nervous that no one would turn up, considering we had been forced to reschedule when I got snowed in and couldn’t make it to New York, but the turnout was crazy! I thought having the launch on this day was actually even better because the weather was much better so no one had to stand out in the snow or rain… I mean, it was still pretty freezing, but there was no blizzard, at least! I wore one of our Bebe for Kardashian dresses!”
