New Moon Box Office Recap: Was it a record breaker?

http://Twitter.com/ClevverTV - Follow Us!

Even with the New Moon craze and loyal fan followers, it's being said that opening weekend results are NOT record-setting.

Hey guys. Welcome back to Clevver TV. I'm your host Dana Ward. So, New Moon opened with a 142.8-million-dollar domestic opening - impressive box office results, by any standards. In fact, it's been all over the news how this Twilight follow-up had such fanatical fans as well as cultlike appeal, that it just must have set records with its first weekend sales. Especially after it's opening day and midnight showing results - 72.7-mil and 26.3-mil respectively - which apparently shattered all-time records.

But now industry insiders are speaking out to clear up the confusion. Apparently, New Moon did not break the big-time record at the box office for opening weekend, on a whole. Still holding its number one spot is The Dark Knight, and even at number two is Spider-Man 3. That being said, New Moon basically doubled - yep, times twoed - the sales for the original Twilight opening weekend. So, that's great news for Twilight fans!

Now we'll do a day-by-day breakdown of the New Moon mania. Friday received 72.7-million, Saturday got 42.3-million and Sunday brought in 27.8-million-dollars.

If these are the results for New Moon, what do you think they'll be like for Eclipse? Do you think the Twilight Saga fanbase will continue to grow or - dare I say - do you think there may be a slight vampire burnout? Please let us know your opinion on this subject because we definitely want to hear from you. I'm Dana Ward - thanks for watching Clevver TV.

It all depends on which day of the week it opens on. If it opens on a Friday it will make 100 million. If it opens on a Wednesday it will make close to about 80 million. That's what happened to the last Harry Potter movies. But, I don't really give a s*** about Twilight.

TWILIGHT IS GAY! TWILIGHT IS GAY!

TWILIGHT IS GAY! TWILIGHT IS GAY!
