To mark the tenth anniversary of the arrival of DVDs in Australia, The Sydney Morning Herald has compiled several lists, including that of the best-selling DVDs of all time, which features both the third and fourth film in the Harry Potter franchise.

Chamber of Secrets came in at #6, Philosopher's Stone came in at #12 and Order of the Phoenix came in at #24.

The fifth film also featured on the list of best-selling DVDs for 2008, at #7.

Daniel Radcliffe took the top spot in their list of he biggest stars of all time, thanks to his appearance in all five Potter films.

I love those to movies!
its hard to remember the days with videos now

1st post!

2nd!!

Wow, taking over the worldone step at a time... lol

thats amazing.

I suppose Nemo was one, because of the all Australian references to it.

gr8 !!!

Ha! Not one bit surprised that Finding Nemo was #1 as the film "took place" in and around Sydney.

why would people rather watch a movie about a fish then about harry frickin potter? well, austrailiens i gues..LOL!! oh, i dont mean to offend anyone, ausralia is amazing! but, yea, harry is atleast on the top five, and it beat lor of rings!

yea, i know, just the other day i went through my video collection and i was "oh yea! I remeber these things!! god..you have to frickin rewind them each time!" LOL!!

It's really great that Harry Potter made it into that list! I love all of the movies on the list! It's also great that Dan took the top spot.

of course - HP is the greatest!!! (LOTR wasn't bad either).

so cool! I love those two!:)

I'm not surprised about Nemo either. It's great news though :D

I know I was like how did I live without DVDs?
must of my videos are gone because I gave them to my cousin.

Finding nemo rocks! and its not because I'm from Sydney and thats where it was set :shifty:

i guess they're talking about individual DVD titles, since i'd expected those with the box sets to have done much better (Star Wars, LOTR, The Matrix, Pirates...)

I am assuming Nemo is as inbred for Australian children as HP maybe for English kids (I cannot say "and American kids" because we still have too many right wing Christian groups that actually have people convince that HP will make you a witch or Satan worshipper if you watch or read it..). With all the references in Nemo to Australia, and it WAS a great movie....I can see why it topped their lists. I bet LOTR would top a New Zealand list because it was filmed in that country.

Well, isn't Finding Nemo in Australia? I think that's sort of cute. Lol. How it's the number one on this list for Australians. Ha.

Anyway, congrats to Dan! Woo! :D

what? They say watching harry potter will make you a witch? Thats well starnge I watch it and I`m not a witch.

On a lighter note yeah hp made the top list

Awesome!! (I'm in Australia too and I have those HP movies lol). Finding Nemo is cute, its was popular for younger kids when it came out. Yes there is also some conservative views about HP here too (among more extreme Christian groups). Each to their own I say, but I think Harry Potter (as a fantasy) has brought more joy to children and increased their interest in reading which is a great thing.

That's great!!!! So ready for Harry Potter world domination!!! lol

YAY! Hmm, I didn't like PoA movie that much, but a lot of people I know that didn't read the books love PoA, so I guess Australians like it too! :)

That is awesome!

Yes, we love (heavy dose of sarcasm) our conservative Christian groups here. Many, not all, are pretty ignorant, not well read, and have the IQ of a pet rock....oops..aimed too low there. There was a particularly outspoken hick of a woman from Georgia who pursued getting HP books taken out of schools! Lovely! She gave all of us southerners a bad name.....

Cool! ^_^

Awesome ! those 2 are the best and order of the pheonix

That's so awesome!
