2 million and significantly fewer than the 9

The output now, more than a thousand screens of "Harry Potter and the relics of death" - will 1repartie - lead French box-office to new heights While the attendance of the hexagonal rooms appears up 6.7 on ten months - after having crossed the 200 million in tickets sold last year, a first since 1982-, seems well party...

The seventh and final volume of the saga of J.K. Rowling will be the subject of two feature films. The first of them already ignited the public around the world, held in breath by the approach of the outcome of the adventures of the young sorcerer. In its launch weekend, "Harry Potter and the relics of death" has already reported $ 330 million of revenue - including $ 125 million in the United States where 9.400 screens have been mobilized. "It is a superior performance of 23 in the last pane 2007", immediately welcomed Warner Bros, for which this successful startup already provides to the film "a place in the history of cinema."

After three days of operation, the film would be already profitable for the Hollywood studio, if the figures circulating are accurate... According to the Imdb site, specializing in data bases on the cinema, the budget of the last Harry Potter franchise would amount to $ 250 million... While the 3D version was not appropriate for the scheduled release date of the first part of "Harry Potter and the relics of death", Warner Bros. chose to withdraw to a conventional launch of the film in 2D. The project would not be called into question. But, rather that suffered criticism from fans disappointed, the major preferred taking his time. The public could discover the version in relief of the blockbuster just before the release of the second part, planned around the world for July 15, 2011.

With 5.4 billion of the six episodes already out (read opposite) global box-office revenue, the "Harry Potter" series has become the "cash machine" Warner. Iconic: the major has relied on the absence of a "Harry Potter" to explain stable income and the fall of 28 of its operating profit in the third quarter... The success of "inception" has not offset the shortfall.

6 million minimum entries

In France, Warner Bros. is "a basic objective of" 6 million entries for the first part of "Harry Potter and the relics of death", perhaps for the second part, indicated in the "French Film" Olivier Snanoudj, Vice President of distribution.

Film, the success of the young sorcerer has tended to eroded. "Harry Potter and the Prince of mixed blood", released in summer 2009, has won 6 million entries, a little less than "The order of the Phoenix" (6.2 million) and significantly fewer than the 9.4 million entries of "Harry Potter to the sorcerer" and 7.7 million of "Goblet of fire".

If Harry Potter full of entries by the end of the year, he could find himself once again in the first ranks of national box-office for 2010. For now, it remains dominated by "Avatar", in James Cameron's 3-d blockbuster, with 14.6 million admissions - 7.5 million made in the last three weeks of 2009 - far enough by "inception" tracking (4.9 million entries, "shrek 4" and "Alice in the country of wonders" (4,53 million each).)
