The Twilight Saga: New Moon Breaks Box Office Records


Recommended Posts

Summit Entertainment has announced that The Twilight Saga: New Moon has broken box office records, earning over $26.27 million in midnight screenings from 3,514 theaters. This destroys the $22.2 million midnight record held by Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince, and the previous second place, Christopher Nolan?s Batman Begins sequel The Dark Knight, which earned $18.4 million in midnight earnings. Also, Summit?s re-release of the original Twilight on Thursday night on 2,057 screens resulted in $1.3 million in ticket sales.

Twilight.. beating.. The Dark Knight? suicide.gif

My thoughts exactly... :x

P.S. - When did the vampire/folk monster legend genre become so...so..."teen romance-cliche"??

Sadly I went to a friends last night and arrived about 30 mins into him being forced by his younger sister to watch the first Twilight. I could not stop laughing at this horrible movie. There was little to no action, the love story was pretty horrible, and everything seemed to not make sense... maybe I was laughing too much to pay attention. Horrible movie.

Thats ****ed up...at least dark knight destroys twilight in ratings.

New one got 30% on rottentomatoes

The books are pieces of **** too. Honestly, this vampire romance bull**** is getting ridiculous now.

I miss the days of Blade, and the ones when vampires were something out of a horror movie. Instead of ****** who walks around in daylight wearing glitter and dating teenage girls

wow, a lot of Twilight hate on this board...

yeah it's nothing "spectacular" and not worth all the hype, but i must admit i'm kinda into these cheesy-teen-chick-flicks (in fact, most chick flicks in general.... Dirty Dancing, Pretty Woman etc...). i'm therefore not ashamed to admit that i quite liked Twilight.

not seen New Moon though........... yet!

    • Edifier S3000MKII hi-fi audiophile grade bookshelf speaker is at its lowest price now by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered a bunch of Dolby Atmos soundbar deals with several ones from Sony, as well as from JBL, Samsung, Polk Audio, and more. You can check them out in this dedicated piece. Those are not audiophile category speakers though as they are built with home theater use in mind. If you are searching for the former then Edifier has its S3000MKII at its lowest price at the moment (purchase link under the specs table down below). This is a two-way bookshelf monitor speaker designed to produce accurate sound. While it may not produce the best high-fidelity audio possible out there, it should still be significantly better than what you will get on soundbars of this price range. As such it will do justice to high-res audio played back through it. The only thing that may feel lacking is sub-bass as Edifier claims the unit can go down to 38 Hz, which should be enough for studio monitor purposes, but not for deep room-shaking rumbling bass. Where this does excel though is in its treble reproduction. With its super-tweeter, it claims to go as high as 40 kHz in the frequency spectrum, which should offer a sense of "air"yness. This is an active speaker which means it packs its own amplfication. It has a top-notch Class D amp that may be able to rival many Class AB designs too in terms of sound reproduction quality. The technical specs of the Edifier S3000MKII are given in the table below: Specification Value RMS Output Power 256W RMS (Treble: 8W × 2, Mid-Low: 120W × 2) Tweeter Driver 107mm × 107mm Planar Magnetic Tweeter Mid-Low Driver 6.5-inch (179mm) Long-Throw Aluminum Diaphragm Driver Frequency Response 38Hz – 40kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio ≥ 85dB (A) Bluetooth Version Bluetooth 5.0 Bluetooth Codec Qualcomm® aptX™ HD Wireless Speaker Link Proprietary 5.8GHz wireless connection between speakers Supported Hi-Res Audio Hi-Res Audio Certified, up to 24-bit/192kHz Digital Processing XMOS XU216 Digital Signal Processor Audio Inputs Balanced XLR, Optical, Coaxial, USB Type-B, Line In, Bluetooth Input Sensitivity (USB) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Optical) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Coaxial) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Bluetooth) 450 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Balanced XLR) 1000 ± 50mV Input Sensitivity (Line In) 600 ± 50mV ADC Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DSP Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DIX Capability Up to 24-bit/216kHz DAC Capability Up to 32-bit/384kHz XMOS Processing Power Up to 2,000 MIPS Edifier S3000MKII Audiophile Active (Powered) Wireless Speakers: $799.99 (Sold by Edifier US, Shipped by Amazon US) If you do not have the kind of budget to spend on the S3000MKII, you can also check out the Edifier R1280Ts which is right now on sale at just $114 (its lowest price in a very long time).
