| The Twilight Saga: New Moon set records as the biggest midnight opening in domestic (United States and Canada) box office history, grossing an estimated $26.3 million in 3,514 theaters. The record was previously held by Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which grossed $22.2 million domestically during its midnight premiere. The film grossed $72.7 million on its opening day domestically, becoming the biggest single-day opening in domestic history, beating The Dark Knight's $67.2 million. This opening strongly contributed to another record: the first time that the top ten films at the domestic box office had a combined gross of over $100 million in a single day. The opening weekend of The Twilight Saga: New Moon is the third highest opening weekend in domestic history with $142,839,137, behind The Dark Knight and Spider-Man 3.
Jesus fuck, America. Stop being made of fail. I mean, it's Twilight for crying out loud. One of the worst written series of the last ten years.
You're even worse than Japan. | |

| I'm tempted to read the books/watch the movies. I've read several articles praising the Twilight phenomenon in OK! and Hello! magazines. | |

I saw the original film recently, and it wasn't bad at all. New Moon wasn't as good, but both were better than the early Potter films. | |

| I liked the early Potter films, so if Twilight films are better, I'll probably have a good time watching them. | |

| Yeah, i forgot it was even worse than just ruining the reputation of vampires.
I mean shit, if these guys want vampires, give them Interview With a Vampire, and Bramstroker's. | |

Except Star Wars created an enormous, original universe with diverse characters, epic space fights and much more. It was groundbreaking for its time and one of the milestone in movie history. Twilight did nothing but be a cliche ridden terribly written book, with an equally terribly acted film. And now there's a manga too. | |

| To it's credit though, at least the movie has rifftracks that make it bearable to watch. | |
