This morning we wrapped up our "Moose Takes You Back To Hogwarts" feature with special guest/senior Harry Potter correspondent, Professor Maddy "not Mad-eye" Bailey. We did a debrief of the final film which broke all sorts of records this past weekend. Click below to hear the final wrap up discussion with Maddy
Box office numbers for the weekend looked like this:
1. Harry Potter - The Deathly Hallows Part 2 — $168.5 million

We found out that Ivanka Trump followed in Victoria Beckham and Kate Hudson and also gave birth on Sunday.
