MOVIE NEWS
New Moon Continues To Take Over The World![]()
In what is sure to be the least surprising news of the year, The Twilight Saga: New Moon is poised to do very well at the box office. Who would’ve thought? With the built-in fanbase that this franchise has, Chris Weitz could have put Rob Pattinson in front of a black backdrop for an hour and a half and called it The Twilight Saga: The Darkness and it probably would’ve made $50 million.
Instead, we got another movie about powerless vampires (now with shirtless wolves!) and a teenage girl who (surprise again!) is into dudes that are dicks. This formula continues to prove profitable, as THR reports that the projected weekend gross of the film is $85 million. That’s $10 million more than Twilight. Made for about $50 million, the film will likely double its budget in less than two weeks. Summit Entertainment should get their champagne and money baths ready. I guess that goes to show that while the postal service, real estate, public universities, and the auto industry are all crashing, shiny vampires and underage hotties continue to be recession-proof. |
