Magic Sales for Harry Potter

"Public Enemies" enters at #2 with 1.1 million. For the third consecutive week Chrstian Bale has a different DVD title at number two. On 29 November with "The Dark Knight", then on 6 December with "Terminator: Salvation", and now with "Public Enemies". It's also the biggest DVD chart hit for Johnny Depp since "Sweeney Todd" which peaked at #2 in April 2007. 

Similar first week sales for "Julie & Julia". Meryl Streep had a huge DVD seller last year with "Mamma Mia". It's Amy Adams' highest chart hit since the #1 DVD "Enchanted" in March 2008. 

"Lost 5" enters the VS chart at #8 with 248.000 units. The previous seasons had bigger first week sales. "Season 2" debuted at number one in September 2006 with 900.000 units.
