CUE HEDWIG'S THEME: With two movies to go, the Harry Potter film franchise has passed James Bond and Star Wars as the biggest film franchise in history. $4.47 billion (and still counting on Order Of The Phoenix) worldwide ($1.47 billion domestic). (Bond is at $1.44 billion domestic, and Star Wars at $2.1 billion domestic, counting all re-releases/reissues.) Let's use this as an open thread to discuss the movies. Some suggested discussion points: Who'd you like to see direct Deathly Hallows (Alfonso Cuaron is probably a contender, but remember that Azkaban was the lowest grossing of the films in the U.S.)? Would you go see a "marathon" screening of all 7 in a row? (Likely starting early in the day and climaxing with a midnight show of Deathly Hallows.) What should the kids do with themselves now? Is Radcliffe making the right choices or the wrong ones?
