Crisis... always a crisis...

Well, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets opened this past weekend and took in $87.7 million at the box office.

Not shabby? The media don't think so.

The WSJ notes that this sequel is "a bit less magical" and some boob (or boobette, I forget) on the lobotomy box tried to make this sound as if this first weekend's results somehow spelled doom for the franchise. Ye gods.

(For the terminally bored, the flick took in 3% less during its first weekend than the first installment.)

Cheers...
