New Moon Breaks Dark Knight's Single Day Record

[Vidboy10]

After setting a new record for midnight openings with $26.27 million at 3,514 theaters, Summit Entertainment's The Twilight Saga: New Moon has also broken the record for a single day, earning $72.7 million on Friday at 4,024 theaters. The previous single day record of $67.2 million was held by The Dark Knight.

It looks like The Dark Knight's 3-day record of $158 million may be in jeopardy now as well.

In related news, 'Rick' told us that posters for the third film in the "Twilight" series, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, are already in theaters and you can check out a photo below. That film, directed by David Slade, hits theaters on June 30.

Wow......

That's just crazy. New Moon sucks compared to the book. I just saw it from T*B to see what the hype was about. I didn't get what the hype was about.

Soooooooooo. This just means there are more 14 year old girls then 24 year old guys. Simple.

I am honestly ashamed to be part of this generation...

if new moon is a more kids genre then its strange rather than sad

Quote - That knowledge which remains only on your tongue is very superficial. The intrinsic value of knowledge is that you act upon it.

[luke_c]

Lies... IT HAS TO BE LIES!

 

[granville]

This sums it up for my feelings-

 

[Satangel]

What a damn shame.....
The Dark Knights was such a good movie, just an instant classic, and now it's been beaten by this?!

 

[Densetsu]

This just means there are more 14 year old girls then 24 year old guys.

 

[ProtoKun7]

Well, I guess there's no accounting for taste...

It's either

Spoiler

I'm a human-sized bat come to tackle villains in make-up

or

Spoiler

Ooh, I'm a sparkly vampire that lives in the forest

I know which I'd prefer, The Dark Knight was good...

It's like when Mamma Mia broke records for the most DVDs sold (or whatever it was)

 

[zuron7]

Sick Just sick.
The DARK Night was a much better movie.
I consider the twilight series a DRAAAg.

 

[granville]

Why do I find it ironic that we're comparing two polar-opposite movies that you'd never compare together, and yet, both have something to do with bats? lmao!
