Ecstatic Merchandising
One of my favorite lyrics of all time comes from a song on the great Godfather's album, Birth, School, Work, Death: "Things ain't what they used to be/Cary Grant's on LSD."
Now, The Smoking Gun informs us, Harry Potter's on Ecstasy. Literally. Which may finally mean there is nothing left for J.K. Rowling to extend the brand into.

Wingardium leviosa, indeed.
Still not as cool as the ?Jesus Christ? blotter acid I once saw
And let us not forget the poignant lyric "I'm Jesus Christ on ecstasy" in the song Suck by Nine Inch Nails.
