The Twilight Saga: New Moon Breaks Box Office Records


Recommended Posts

I didn't go to see it this weekend mainly because I didn't want to fight the crowds and mostly because every showing was sold out this week at my local theater. My wife has already started up, wanting me to take her to see it so I guess I will soon do just that to keep the peace.

I'd wait until its all died down, myself I am waiting for the Blu-Ray it's easier plus in my house there's no screaming people :p

I will watch this just for kristen stewart. :shifty:

if you want to see her mope for a good 2 hours then watch this :p but Kristens best movie performance to date was in Adventureland (Y)

My Wife and I watched it with the rest of the crowd of 400+ on Friday night. They played it every hour on the hour in several theater #'s at my 15 theater place. We got there at 9:20pm for the 11:00pm show and we were about 32 people behind the front. By the end of waiting we had about 350 behind us.

We were fans of the first one so watched this one. It was good in our minds and about everyone there was impressed with it as well.

Not for everyone I am sure but it was for us. :)

I read half of the first book, I couldn't finish it. It was worse than Harry Potter.

Go ahead and google some twilight hate and you'll find some websites dedicated to literature break down on how bad the books are in detail.

And the movie...

-How can everyone in school have the hots for your crotch and yet be depressed and think they hate you?

-No matter how well or fast or EXTREME you drive, no guy can look cool in a volvo, especially dead glittery ones.

-Blinking 100 times a minute is not good acting.

-Stuttering and blurting to near spaz on every line is not good acting either. Where did they get this girl? A rehab center at mid-sobriety?

-Apparently you have only one class, biology.

-Going to high school all your life might raise questions like: Haven't you gone here before?

-And if you're immortal, you're a loser if you spend it at high school.

I can go on like a broken record that has been said before, say, "It's not a curse if you can walk in day light and just eat tofu deer forever." Or the fact Bella is a Jane Doe with a minus in the personality department.

I think I'm ganna start putting Bram Stoker books on top of twilight books at my barns n nobel.

I can't imagine any males liking the book or the movie, and if you do. Congrats, you're a couple bars down on the evolution graph. If my ex liked the book or movie she would have been my ex a lot sooner.

No one has standards anymore.

I saw New Moon with my wife yesterday and I have to say it may be one of the worse movies I've ever seen. I was yawning viscously about midway through the film. Even my wife was disappointed in it and she's a big fan of the series.

Hmm?

Twilight is certainly not my taste in movies, i prefer action movies preferably war or war related set in modern time but i dont have a problem with WW2 setting, that said i liked Twilight, all this bashing is boring.

I guess that applies to all the undeserved praising it as well?

Friday estimates this week

    • We had no idea as kids how much time and energy it took to be an adult 😅
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
    • I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
