Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix just opened yesterday, but it is already breaking records at the box office. The film made $12 million for the midnight showing alone, beating out Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King as the No. 1 Wednesday opening midnight run ever. Still with me? Order of the Phoenix doubled the midnight revenue of Goblet of Fire, which opened up on a Friday night back in 2005. Basically, what this all means is that the Transformers are in for some stiff competition at the box office this weekend.
