'Happy Feet' Edges 'Casino Royale' at Box Office'

NEW YORK -- James Bond has met his match — not a fellow spy but a tap-dancing penguin. The Warner Bros. animated penguin romp "Happy Feet" debuted with $42.3 million, grabbing an edge for the weekend's No. 1 slot over Sony's Bond adventure "Casino Royale," which opened with $40.6 million, according to studio estimates Sunday.

You know why that happened? Due to Harry Potter.

Confused? Warner Bros. used a clever trick, that they have already used before. They featured an exclusive trailer of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix with the release of Happy Feet and I am sure that millions of Harry Potter fans must have gone to watch the film just to see the HP&tOotP trailer. It happened before too when some film featured the trailer of HP&tGoF and fans went to see the film just for the trailer.
