Bangalore: One of the most awaited movies of the year is 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2' and with more than $40 million tickets sold in advance it definitely expected to make it even bigger. It has already recorded a business of $168.6 million in the U.S. and Canada in just three days. The movie also had the biggest international debut ever, grossing a magical $307 million overseas in 59 foreign countries. With awesome animations and mind boggling technology it is definitely heading for a record-breaking business in the box office. The two things that make the difference this time, is its awesome animation and best utilization of Facebook and twitter in promoting the movie. Back in 2001 when Harry Potter first movie was realized Facebook and twitter never existed, but in 2011 Harry potter made the best out of the social networking sites to reach out to its fans. Animation
The awesome fantasy world is delivered and a culminated work of a combination of companies like Rising Sun Pictures, Double Negative, Cinesite, Framestores and Industrial Light and Magic. The visual effects put together are really fantastic as give a real like feeling and takes you to a world of magic, witches and heroism. Technology has taken a leap for sure and this was quite evident in the last series of Harry potter and it was a very clean and neat show put by the Warner bros for sure.
