New Moon makes most ever for Midnight Opening
Sources tell Gossip Cop Summit Entertainment is set to announce that “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” broke the record for biggest midnight opening last night, beating “The Dark Knight” and the top “Harry Potter” franchise performer.
WE’VE JUST RECEIVED THIS FROM SUMMIT…
THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON has set a new record for opening midnight shows with an estimated gross of $26.270 million playing at 3,514 theaters for a per theater average of $7,476. THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON passes HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE ($22.2 million) to take the number one spot.* Following POTTER is DARK KNIGHT ($18.5 million).
In addition to THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON, last night Summit re-issued TWILIGHT in theaters. The film grossed $1.3 million playing at 2,057 theaters for a per theater average of $631. The re-issue of Twilight came in just outside the top 15 for the week this is notable especially considering that all came from just 9 PM Thursday night shows.

ladolcevitablue | mayfrayn |NEW YORK — With "New Moon" hitting theaters this week, it seems fitting that the stars are already starting to reveal tidbits about the upcoming "Eclipse" flick. And if fans thought Bella gets taken for a ride in "New Moon," they are in for a surprise once they hit theaters next year.MTV
"I think Bella's little bit of treachery in the third one will be ... I think it's going to be a good scene," he told MTV News on the red carpet at the NYC screening of "New Moon."
While the "Twilight Saga" has catapulted Pattinson to mega-stardom, he isn't resting on his laurels. The trailer for his new film "Remember Me" came out Thursday (November 19), and it seems to have an equally drama-filled relationship — even if Pattinson doesn't see the parallels. "It's not very similar to 'Twilight,' " he said. "[But] hopefully it will get the same fanbase."
Kristen Stewart elaborated on the pain Bella is about to go through in the third movie. "I'm looking forward to seeing the love triangle actually becoming a problem," she said. "We sort of innocently touch on it in 'New Moon,' but it actually becomes something that is very, very real."
Stewart said seeing Bella grow and develop in the upcoming flicks will certainly prove interesting for her, as well as the Twi-Hards. "I've always backed her up in her devotion to Edward," she said. "And to see that falter will be interesting."
'New Moon' Stars are obsessed, too
