Looks like
Stephenie Meyer has been a very good girl this year. As the holiday season officially kicked off, Santa rewarded the Twilight Saga author with a $230.7 million box office for
New Moon, the second movie adaptation of her vampire series. Despite a 70 percent dropoff in ticket sales since the Nov. 20 opening, the Sunday morning domestic figures still put
Moon far ahead of the entire $192 million domestic run of last year's
Twilight.
These are pretty hefty numbers and show that we'll be seeing more of the craze for a few more years. So for those of you still hoping for the demise of the glittering vamp franchise,
resistance is futile.
