Ok what did we learn this weekened. When it came to the battle of Book # 7 vs. movie number 5, US fans of the boy wizard opted to curl up with a good book this weekend. Although fans still supported the film domestically to the tune of 32 million +, it was edged out of the number one slot by the Adam Sandler comedy, I now pronounce you Chuck and Larry. Potter books meanwhile virtually evaporated from shelves around the US as more than 8 million copies sold in the first 24 hours alone.

Overseas, however, Potter had no problem holding onto the top spot as it raced to a mind boggling 352 million dollars(559 million world wide)after just 12 days.
