'Harry Potter' looks to shatter box office record.



The final "Harry Potter" film is poised to shatter more box-office records when it opens this weekend."Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" will almost certainly break the record for biggest worldwide opener ever,the $236 million benchmark set by "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince" two years ago.As it stands, "Deathly Hallows: Part 2" is on pace to pull in north of $150 million domestically, based on studio tracking. Adding extra gravy to Warner Bros. box-office feast, many of those ticket prices will come at a premium, as "Deathly Hallows: Part 2" will hit 3,000 3-D screens.Internationally, Potter will premiere on 19,500 screens in 59 foreign territories such as Russia, Australia and Italy this weekend. It already earned $43.6 million in foreign territories on Wednesday.
