J.K. Rowling’s magical creation of a teen wizard and his fight against the Dark Lord Voldermort revolutionized the Book world ever since the release of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. This master piece of fiction is a seven part series with each book narrating the incidents that happen in the wizarding world and Harry’s journey at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. This marvellous creation was adapted into a movie back in 2001 and ever since this magical hero has created strong waves not only the lives of fanatics but also in the Box Office.
The recent release of the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, fifth in line of the series was a great success with absolutely magical figures projected at the Box office world over. IMAX Corporation and Warner Bros. Pictures announced on September 5th, 2007 that the latest Harry Potter movie has become the highest grossing live-action Hollywood IMAX release with a world wide gross collection of about $906 million till date.
IMAX cashed in the most with their 3D feature around the world. It has been reported that the experience in the dome at IMAX just added another feather in the cap to Harry Potters magic especially in the climax duel between the Order and Voldermorts death eathers.
With the cost of production of the Harry Potter movies increasing with every release one needs to gain collections of such high magnitude to cover the costs. Reports say that the 200 foot long Ministry of Magic shown in the 5th movie is the most expensive set built so far in the Potter film series. IMAX Corporation is all set for the next release in the series and will be expecting the collections to reach greater sky heights.
