ORIGINAL POST – 6/30/10
It was a total Eclipse from the start.
The blockbuster third installment of The Twilight Saga opened to more than $30 million on its first night in North America.
It surpasses the previous midnight opening record holder, which was the second Twilight installment, New Moon, at $26.3 million.
It’s too early to know whether Eclipse will top New Moon’s (full) first day record of $72.7 million.
The movie also set a new IMAX record for midnight grosses with over $1 million from 192 theaters, beating Transformers 2’s $959,000.

Can you confirm or deny that Robert Pattinson is doing a movie for Dream Works?
pity the movie sucks…and I am a fan of twilight so this does pain me to say
MOVIE WAS E-X-C-E-L-L-E-N-T!!!!!!!!!!!! SO MUCH BETTER THAN NEW MOON!!!!!
In a way I argue with everybody. I liked new moon, it did what the book said. No edward, no action, to much jacob.
And in a way i don’t like eclipse, too weak and whinny edward. he is not this man. and i don’t like bella’s last standing up speach. there is no undeniable love…there is selfish want to lie forever in anyway, maybe withouth edward.
no lie, live
I didn’t like Eclipse. I am a fan, but what happen to Bella and Edward?
Too much Jacob, a selfish Bella and a strange Edward. A lot of money for SUMMIT, and a terrible movie about a lovely book.
