However, actual ticket sales suffered over the course of the weekend.  It came in 6th overall in actual ticket sales for an opening weekend, behind The Dark Knight, Twilight: New Moon and some Spider-Man movies.  

Yet, no one in Harry Potter world will be crying about the results.  The movie also set the record for biggest worldwide opening taking in $476 Million across the globe this weekend.
