Potter Gets to a BILLION Dollars

According to IMDB.com, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt. 2 has reached the billion dollar mark. Here’s some more deets:

Transformers: Dark of the Moon‘s two-week head start couldn’t hold off Harry Potter’s record-breaking pace: Deathly Hallows Part 2 passed $1 billion worldwide (domestic plus foreign) on Sunday, while Transformers still has a few days left before it arrives at that coveted milestone. Deathly Hallows Part 2 hit $1 billion on its 19th day in theaters, which tied Avatar’s record for fastest to reach that level. With a $1.008 billion total, Potter ranked eighth on all-time worldwide chart, ahead of The Dark Knight but behind Alice in Wonderland. With China opening next weekend, Potter’s poised to ultimately take third place fromThe Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King ($1.12 billion). Dipping 48 percent, Deathly Hallows Part 2‘s foreign weekend was $66.4 million from 59 markets. That brought its foreign total to $690 million, which ranked seventh all-time and could move up to fifth place when actuals report on Monday. It’s also number one all-time among Warner Bros.

Pretty amazingly impressive. But I’d still like to see what the rankings are if you account for inflation.
