New Moon #1 Midnight Show Of All Time

Well, with sold out midnight shows everywhere, Fandango has released its numbers. The Twilight Saga: New Moon raked in an easy $26million in its midnight shows alone! That beats Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince's gross of $22million. Now it holds that record, can it beat The Dark Knight's $67million opening day gross? Could it defeat Knight's $158million opening weekend?

In my opinion, first maybe. At the same time Knight had the advantage of being in the summer and unless parents are letting their kids skip school to see it... Opening weekend? not by a long shot. The series will hit big opening weekend but lacking broad appeal it won't go much beyond the demographic. People who are angry over New Moon holding the midnight show record, just take comfort in that the legions of Harry Potter fans turning out for Deathly Hallows Part 2 (yes the seventh book is being released in two parts) at midnight will permanently wrest that record from sparkling vampires. And I think, pretty much any other movie.

But anyway, The Twilight Saga: New Moon is in theaters now and holds a 65% on the site. The next in the series; The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (directed by David Slade of Hard Candy & 30 Days of Night) is due out June 30, 2010.
