I found this article on Yahoo:

http://movies.yahoo.com/news/usmovies.thehollywoodreporter.com/new-moon-breaks-boxoffice-record

Here it is:

Summit Entertainment’s vampire-romance sequel “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” rung up a record $72.7 million in opening-day boxoffice on Friday, easily topping domestic rankings.

That bested a previous single-day boxoffice mark of $67.2 million, set by Warner Bros.’ Batman sequel “The Dark Knight” in July 2008.The first-day tally for “New Moon” included $26.3 million in boxoffice from a total 3,514 performances at12:01 a.m. Friday, which set a record for witching-hour coin.

Consensus pre-release forecasts put the likely first-weekend tally for “New Moon” at $85 million-plus. Not even a meteoric burnout on Saturday and Sunday would keep the largely female-fueled film from soaring well past those projections.

“Dark Knight” holds the record for the biggest opening ever, at $158.4 million. Whether “New Moon” – which is playing in more than 4,024 locations this weekend – will hold up well enough in its second and third days of release to approach that record is virtually unknowable, as the sequel is traveling into uncharted territory for the franchise.

The original “Twilight” – released a year ago this weekend – collected $36 million in its first day of release and $69.6 million in its first weekend. And that was considered a major over-performance at the time.

Elsewhere in the daily rankings, Warners’ Sandra Bullock-toplined drama “The Blind Side” debuted with $10.8 million, good for second place on the day. That’s a terrific start for the feel-good pigskin pic, which some thought would get blind-sided by “New Moon” and fail to rise above teen millions on the weekend.

Sony’s animated feature “Planet 51” landed in fifth place with a soft $3.2 million in first-day boxoffice. But the PG-rated pic should find a more lucrative orbit once Saturday and Sunday matinees kick in.

Sony’s scifi actioner “2012” -- which topped domestic rankings a week earlier – was third among all Friday grosses with $8.1 million. That gives the Roland Emmerich pic an $89.8 million cume through its first eight days in the marketplace.

Youu all may have seen it since I am slow to everything, but I though it was extremely funny.

 Never mind I got it :) enjoy

WOW.  I just finished paying my winning auction bids from The Fandom Gives Back, and I see that the total amount pledged is very nearly

                                                   $71,000

As Bella would say, "HOLY CROW!"  I think the goal was, what?  $10,000?

 We are absolutely amazing! 

We have had a lot of reviews on A Different Forest, mine is coming, but I would like to discuss THE AUDIENCE and how they reacted.

So, fill in the blankety blanks:

The Scene that got the biggest reaction was _________ the reaction was _____________ my response was _______________.

The Scene that got the most unintended reaction was ________________ .

The BEST audience response was ______________________.

The most annoying audience response was ________________________.

IF YOUR AUDIENCE RESPONDED TO THE MOVIE IN A WAY SIMILAR, LET US KNOW. We want TRENDS!

I think everyone can figure out how we both feel about New Moon from this exchange. TELL US YOUR THOUGHTS ON NEW MOON!

Hey Campers!

Earlier today erica_lopeezy posted this about the box office records:

New Moon Breaks Records

Summit has announced that The Twilight Saga: New Moon has officially set a new all-time midnight box office record, taking in $26.27M from 3514 theaters.

This shatters The Dark Knight’s $18.4M midnight debut for a 3-day weekend. It also easily surpasses the all-time record for midnight showings which was held by Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which took in $22.2M on a Tuesday night on its way to a 5-day weekend total of $158M. The Dark Knight went on to take in $67.17M that opening day, dropped 29.1% from Friday to Saturday to bring in another $47.65M, and ended with $43.6M on Sunday for an opening weekend total of $158.4M.

 Now, I was just on Twitter, and Alyssa_Milano posted a link to this article:

"Only Two of the Top 30 Grossing Films of this Decade Are Original"

Wikipedia has a list of the highest grossing films of this decade so far, and kottke noticed that of the top 20 films at the box office, only one movie was not based on a past film or tv show (remake/sequel), or an adaptation of an established property (be it a comic, book, play, toy…etc).

Which is the only original feature film to make it into the the top 20 grossing films of this decade (so far)? Answer after the jump.

Finding Nemo, which lands at #15 with $864.6 million.

If you take a look at the top 30 films from this decade, there is only one other original film property among the bunch, that being…

DreamWorks Animation’s Kung Fu Panda, #30 spot with $631.7 million.

In fact, out of the top 50 grossing films of this decade, there are only 9 movies based on original properties. And five of those nine films were created by Pixar Animation Studios. How sad…

Now, I love Twilight as much as the next, but my question for you all is how do you feel about the movie industry today and its apparent lack of creativity and the need to bail out on books, television shows, etc?

*Fine Print: This is my first campfire, so Rangers feel free to squelch the flames if my post is irrelevant.

I know I'm early, but I wanted to start her birthday party early.

Kimvi's actual birthday is Sunday Nov 22nd and what a weekend to celebrate it, right on the heels of New Moon.

She is the owner of a witty mind and fast fingers. (i only know from typing, but feel free to divulge any secrets in here)

She has impeccable tastes in all things related to the twi-verse as well as or including music, fanfics, liquor and most importantly pretty boys.

So Kimvi, in honor of you, it's time to start the weekend with body shots off of pretty boys. 

I throughly enjoyed New Moon. Taylor Lautner's acting wasn't as horrible as I thought it would be, but rather pretty good. But now I'm at home and I've just realized that Eclipse - which is my favorite - will feature Kstew in a WIG. We all saw how horrible Jacob looked in the wig, and that cringeworthy Harper Bazaar photoshoot with the fake hair. WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN!?!?! I've seen that no amount of photoshopping and video editing will make that hair look normal, as evident with the photoshoot and Taylor.

If there's anyone out there who can reassure me that it is possible to make the wig look good, please do. What will you do if Bella Swan really does look like she's got a wig on in Eclipse? I may have to forfeit the 3rd movie.

I would really like to read about a fic with a different Bella. Everybody writes the same, innocent, blushing, sweet Bella. I would LOVE to see Edward meet his match. I love when people make Edward into a duchebag but I'd like to see the duche fall for a female duche. I don't know why I want to read something like this so bad but it just sounds appealling. Anyone know where I can find a rude, obnoxious, arrogant Bella. Please, I've looked everywhere for one.
