HARRY POTTER 2009'S TOP GROSSING FILM

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was 2009's top grossing film. YEA!!! I really loved this Harry Potter film. Worldwide, HP took in $934 million and $302 domestically. The highest grossing film domestically was Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen with $402 million, followed by HP. The Hangover has a big year as well grossing $277 million domestically and $190 overseas to make it the highest grossing R-rated comedy of all time. Studio-wise, Warner Bros. is declaring that by the end of the year it will have set a new industry record, totalling $3.99 BILLION in ticket sales worldwide. Twentieth Century Fox still has a chance to beat that though with Avatar and Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel (I can't with that freakin' title) raking in money hand over fist. Even though the year ends on Thursday, the box office totals from this weekend are included in the year end tally. Fox also has a good chance at hitting $4 billion since they has a record $2.28 billion in foreign ticket sales. Whoever comes out on top, that's a lot of cheddar, yo! [source]
