'Twilight Saga: Eclipse' breaks midnight records!

David Slade's "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" is already a huge hit, because the third installment in the ridiculously popular vampire series generated a massive $30 million from midnight screenings!
"Eclipse" had multiple midnight shows per theater at more than 4,000 locations, beating the $26.3 million midnight record set by "The Twilight Saga: New Moon." About $1 million came from IMAX shows.
"Eclipse" will also easily win this 4th of July weekend, although it's not sure the movie will beat the opening weekend gross of "New Moon." Still, Summit will certainly be pleased with the sequel's results.
