""The Twilight Saga: New Moon" took in $72.7 million in its first day to break the single day domestic box office record previously held by "The Dark Knight," which had a $67.2 million opening day last year. The Friday haul for the "Twilight" sequel includes a record $26.3 million from midnight screenings alone. If "New Moon" maintains its pace, it might have a shot at the all-time best opening weekend record of $158.4 million, also held by "The Dark Knight."" - Steven Perez from Bookmarklet

Congratulations, Jedi nerds of the 21st century. With a little work, it won't be long until you make hardcore Trekkies look sane. - Steven Perez
