Well, I guess that pays for Sorority Row.

Had New Moon opened during the summer, it probably would have made quite a bit more bank. (Twilight III) Eclipse is opening next summer, so... Sadly, the next Twilight film will most likely climb up and reach a higher record. May Odin have mercy on our souls....

These need to stop, I HATE these things so much....and if it tops the most in the world that will mark the end of the world.....I hate tweens sometimes.....

i Hate tweens all of the time especially nowadays. they swarm the malls and movie theatres...They need to strapped to a rocket and sent to the sun ;p

I hate fad movies like this. HATE them. And I really dislike the tweens that obsess over them like none other and give movie fans a bad name. And Twilight? Horrible movie! But as for New Moon? I sadly really enjoyed it. I thought the director did a great job with what little material he had. But the acting really was something to write the studio about. Horrible. But I just had to give this film at least one so-so post.

I wanted to get hammered drunk with a large group of my rowdy friends and go see the midnight showing of this. Yes I Know it's a dick move, but I hate the ideas of these movies so much I don't care!

it's funny hearing some of you saying you "hate tweens". so you hated yourselves too, right? it's JUST a movie! it's not like it raped & murdered your entire family!! relax. and this movie (for those on the fence after seeing TWILIGHT) is MUCH more action-y. the werewolves parts were actually (with the sound FX and everything in context) were actually pretty good! the whole Volturi parts in Italy were VERY good! Michael Sheen, as usual, was spot on. Dakota is only in that scene for a total of like 3 minutes but she was wonderfully creepy (her character).

Couldn't care less about TWILIGHT and its sequels, but I don't hate people for liking them. To each their own. If you spend your whole life getting your underwear in a knot over things that make other people happy, you're not only wasting time and effort you could be devoting to things that you enjoy... you're also destined to wind up with some very sore junk.

I want Zac Efron to be in a rated R gorefest where he is a cannibal that rapes his victims before he eats them. I dont know thats how New Moons success makes me feel lol

It's not JUST A MOVIE. The problem is that this kind of film is getting so much support like the remakes and shit like that have. So the more films like this get supported, the more garbage is being released. This just shows how low American standards are. They'd much rather go see a glossy pos just cuz some hot guy is in it, than go see an artisitic film that deserves attention and than people really worked hard on. Opening night of "Twilight: New Moon" I proudly walked past all the screaming tweenie fans right into the auditorium for a FANTASTIC film called "PRECIOUS", which Mo'Nique deserves an Oscar for.

it's really sad and incredibly embarrassing for real vampire fans

1kidalone. I really would like to see Precious but its not in my city yet!

1kidalone, so i didn't realize the people who worked on NM didn't "work hard". and it's a "pos" to YOU and that's totally fine. i respect that. i'm happy you enjoyed PRECIOUS but there is NO way i would want to sit through that movie. no way. that doesn't make my taste wrong and yours right or vice versa. it's just a simple matter of people having a DIFFERENCE OF OPINION. both sides are fine.

fuck this gay shit and fuck this site for its post of this shit stick to real horror, not this abortion

And now it beat out Dark Knight... a sad day in movie history!

I won't see this series.I'm too old for this shit!So if your a fan good for you.I was part of a fad too,Break'n 1 and 2,Beat Street,Wild style,and Krush Groove.Now all of those films are bargain bin.Enjoy them while their popular 10 years from now they'll be an afterthought especially in the horror genere.

Damn, i thought it would make like 80 million...

lol....that would be weird if they chose Zac Efron to play Edward...Honestly though, Robert P almost looks like a younger Justin Timberlake with Longer hair...at least now he does anyways. Also if Edward C and that Wolf kid werent good looking and just 'average' I bet these films would flop at the box office. Teenage girls wouldn't care for it...as it is, it's a superficial movie to the tee' Just imagin if they casted Harry potter to play edward and maybe Ron to play the wolf kid.lol Maybe then i'd see it haha

WHY SO FUCKING SERIOUS?????????????????

Dark knight still hold the record for the all time domestic opening weeked, #1 dark knight with 158 million, #2 spider-man 3 with 151 million, #3 crappy new moon with 140 million but that is estimate for NM. I am not a HATER and not one to comment or blog about things i don't like but BD stop covering this crappy tweeny girly shit on a horror site, just because it has vampires & werewolf's does not mean its horror, (isn't vampires suppose to scary anyway?), I love horror & this is not horror its a shitty romance chick flick, i guess money does talk huh??.

I saw New Moon this morning with two other friends at the 10am showing. It's funny how people say this is only for tweens...the theater was full of married couples and entire families! (no real young children though). The movie was enjoyable. A little more violent than the first one, but of course, most was off screen. Definitely aimed for a female audience with all the shirtless hunkery going on, but it was entertaining. People getting so upset over this is just as insane as getting upset over a new fan rabid Star Wars movie...so what if it's not your thing? Who said every movie has to be?

I've never seen the Twilight movies at all nor do I care, it's basically just a chick flick. I don't consider this horror at all. If you want to see some real vampires and werewolves then stick to movies like Dracula, The Lost Boys, Wolf Creek, Wolfman, etc. Vampires and werewolves are meant to be scary not romantic yeesh.

EnglundFTW, says who? you?

Fuck tween vampmance, bring on the giant monsters!

thought just occured to me a lot of pediphiles will be bagging underage chicks by claiming to vamps, god help them.
