Goblet of Fire Tops Box Office

According to studio estimates, Harry Potter and the Goblet Of Fire will have banked $101.4 million in box office revenue during it's opening weekend. This puts Goblet in the fourth spot on the highest grossing opening weekend of all time list, just behind SpiderMan II ($114.8 million), and Star Wars: Episode III and Shrek II (both $108 million).

The success of this 4th installment places the series closer to other records as well. Together, the first three installments of the Harry Potter series grossed over $2.6 billion, and with the success of Goblet and the possibility of 3 future films to come, it's only a matter of time before the young wizard is hailed the all time king of the box office.

But Prince Harry is going to need to keep the magic alive for some time until he can claim his throne. According to Leesmovieinfo, the six Star Wars episodes have combined earnings of over $4.2 billion worldwide, and the Lord of the Rings trilogy ranks second with just over $2.9 billion.

Editors Note: Goblet of Fire brought in $102.335 million at the box office during it's opening weekend, a number that is obviously higher than the original studio estimates.
