The Head- Scratching Success Of The Harry Potter Movies

They're not all that good. They don't contain massively important social commentary. They don't feature big established stars. But with all this, the Harry Potter Movie Series continues to rake in the dough. This third installment -- "The Goblet of Fire" -- took in over $100 million since it's open on Friday.

What's the deal? What kind of hold does this series have on us, and why?

More soon.

  1. Did you ever see "Big Fish"?? To me it was very entertaining. I enjoy movies that entertain and allow me to leave my world and travel into someone else's. I believe that HP allows this to happen. We have reality in our lives, we have reality on TV, we have reality news. I want a damn storybook read to me every once in a while.
