Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 2, Last of Twilight Saga, Earns $141.3 Million On Opening Weekend. Launch Trailer

The final entry in The Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn Part 2, was a monstrous hit at the Box Office, debuting with $141.3 million earned in the U.S. alone, breaking records and placing it at #8 in the highest grossing film debuts of all time in the USA. It's worldwide numbers were $199.6 million bringing the worldwide total to $340.9 million! By contrast New Moon still holds the Twilight record, barely topping Breaking Dawn Part 2 by 1 million with $142 million in domestic sales during its debut.


Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2 had the biggest male crowds of the saga, although 79% of the audience was still female. Breaking Dawn represents the swan song of the franchise, and is the final film in the twilight series, the second part of the two-part "Breaking Dawn" episode.

Twilight films now compose 3 of the top 10 openings, at #7 (2009's New Moon with $142.8 million) and #9 (2011's Breaking Dawn Part 1 with $138.1 million). The top film of all time in the US is The Avengers, which came out in May of this year and topped $1 billion worldwide and $207.4 million during it's debut weekend. Joining Twilight with more than one film on the top 10 is Christopher Nolan's Batman franchise, with The Dark Knight Rises #3 (with $160.9 million, it came out last July 2012) and The Dark Knight #4 (2008 with 158.4 million).

Breaking Dawn Part 2 topped last week's biggest movie, the new James Bond film Skyfall, which also broke records to become the biggest selling Bond film of all time.

World War Z First Movie Trailer. Release Date Is June 21 2013. Stars Brad Pitt In Film Based Book of the Same Name By Max Brooks

World War Z's debut trailer is finally out. It hits movie screens next summer, June 21st 2013.

Check out how Brad Pitt faces off against zombies in a post-apocalyptic world; in a film that is loosely based on the Max Brooks fiction novel of the same name, which was the follow-up to "The Zombie Survival Guide".... Both books that came out BEFORE the whole zombie-craze of 2012.

I've never read the books so I can't really comment....

Okay I will. It looks awesome to me. While it doesn't necessarily look like anything unique, it looks like it will be a pretty cool film. And I dig the realistic bent they are going for, granted, they never showed any zombies up-close, and at first glance you could be forgiven for not even knowing that this is a zombie film. I'll definitely be keeping my eye out on this one.
