'New Moon' beats 'Harry Potter' at midnight

New Moon with Bella and Jacob

The vampires and wolves defeated the young wizard at the North American box office Thursday night, as "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" bagged a solid $26.27 million from midnight screenings yesterday.

Indeed, "New Moon" beat the record set by "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," which brought in $22.2 million from midnight screenings. That's quite an impressive start for the "Twilight" sequel.

Additionally, "New Moon" should easily blow up the box office this weekend, as the Chris Weitz-directed film is now playing in 4,024 theaters, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

'Twilight Saga: New Moon' - What did you think?

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson in New Moon

First of all, here is the reaction I experienced from a sold-out crowd at a midnight showing yesterday of "The Twilight Saga: New Moon," when the Summit logo showed up: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Good job Summit, you've got millions of Twilighters on your side. Anyway, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are back in the sequel to "Twilight," and I want to know what you all thought...

I personally didn't enjoy the film, even though I laughed a lot. How about you guys? Did you love it? Hate it? Please leave all your comments and thoughts below, and as usual, don't curse too much.

Robert Pattinson in 'Remember Me' trailer

Robert Pattinson stars in the upcoming Allen Coulter drama "Remember Me," and believe it or not, he's not playing a vampire. A trailer for the family drama has debuted online, and it follows after the jump.

The film was co-written by "Rachel Getting Married" scribe Jenny Lumet, and the trailer looks intense. It also doesn't look that bad, actually. Even Pattinson promises a warmer performance in the lead role.

He plays Tyler, a rebellious young man who has a strained relationship with his father (Pierce Brosnan) ever since tragedy separated their family. One day, he meets Ally (Emilie de Ravin) through a twist of fate.

Kristen Stewart in New Moon

No, this is not a joke. "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" is now officially the top-selling pre-release title in Fandango's 10-year history. The upcoming "Twilight" sequel beat the record Saturday evening.

Chris Weitz's "New Moon" is currently grabbing 86% of weekly ticket sales at the online ticket shop. Thousands of Thursday midnight screenings are already sold out, but tickets to showings are still avaliable.

"For many fans, it's clearly the year's most anticipated film event," said Rick Butler, Fandango chief operating officer. "Ever since tickets went on sale on August 31, it's been among our top five weekly ticket-sellers, as 'New Moon' has a strong pull on audiences."

He said, "We're seeing a higher-than-usual number of tickets per transaction for this film, suggesting that moviegoers will show up en masse at theaters this weekend with their friends and family."

Ouch! Bella bleeds in new 'New Moon' clip

New Moon

It's another bright day for Twilighters, because MTV has just released a brand-new clip from Chris Weitz's upcoming "Twilight" sequel "The Twilight Saga: New Moon." Check it out after the jump.

And yes, Bella (Kristen Stewart) does bleed in this one-minute clip, which shows her enjoying some awkward time with the Cullen clan, including her vampire sweetheart Edward (Robert Pattinson).

As you know by now, the vamps adore blood and all, which makes this particular situation even more awkward. Poor Bella! In fact, this whole clip just feels a little awkward to me, but see for yourself.

The Volturi fight in new 'New Moon' clip

New Moon

Yes my dear Twilighters, a new, action-packed clip from Chris Weitz's upcoming "Twilight" sequel "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" has found its way to the Web, and you can check it out after the jump.

Basically, this is a clip from a scene in which the Volturi start kicking ass. Kristen Stewart, as usual, looks very concerned, Michael Sheen looks incredibly freaky and Robert Pattinson jumps at a guy.

The footage looks good and all, but I hope Weitz doesn't overdo it with slow-motion moments. Other than that, it already looks like "New Moon" will be more action-packed than its decent predecessor.

Oh! First photos from 'Eclipse' hit the web

Thanks to the wonderful world of the wide Web, Twilighters can lead a happy existence, primarily because they can log on everyday and expect some kind of "Twilight" news spreading like a real plague.

Okay, I better pick my words carefully, because I'm definitely not in the mood for a series of attacks by crazy Twilighters angry at me for comparing the "Twilight" craze to a plague. Let me move on, then...

The first photos from David Slade's "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" have found their way to the online world. The pics have been scanned from a magazine, so don't expect awesome quality. See below.
