It’s a sad day for us The Dark Knight fans. Or for those of us who just love movies in general.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon has set a new opening day record of just over $72million.  That beats the previous record, held by our loved The Dark Knight by just over $5.6million.

New Moon has also set a new “single day” record, and a “single day – Friday” record, for its opening day.

Despite making a boatload of money, people don’t seem to be enjoying the latest “Twilight” movie.  As of now, Rotten Tomatoes’ current rating is 29%, and IMDb is only at a 4.4/10.

Have you seen New Moon? Is it as terrible as I’d guess it’d be?

The first poster for the Twilight sequel New Moon is available, and creepily displays the general plot of the movie.

Even in the supernatural world, boys fight over pretty girls.

I don’t know what a “wolf pack” is, in relation to New Moon, but apparently it’s the buzz of the internet this morning.

USAToday has a pic, and the scoop on all the new wolf pack characters.  So, if you’re interested in the details, check it out here.  If you don’t care about any of that (like me) here’s the image of the four of them

In addition to having production start on the next movie in Twilight saga of films, we found out that Cameron Bright (who you may know from Running Scared, Ultraviolet or Birth) has been added to the cast.

Bright has been cast to play Alec, who is a “a high ranking and powerful Volturi member.”

I don’t have the faintest idea what that means, because I’ve never read the books (and have no intention on doing so.)  Christine just Netflix’d the Blu-ray of Twilight, which I’ve put off watching as much as possible since it got here. Maybe if I’m lucky, she’ll forget all about it, and I’ll never have to watch it.

Principal photography is reported to be underway. The film is set to open November 20th, just over 7 months from now.

Sorry for the lack of updates over the weekend. We moved the site to a new (faster, better, more reliable) host, and had a ton of troubleshooting we had to take care of.

With that said, let’s catch you up on things that happened:

• RopesofSilicon has the first look at Keira Knightly in  Last Night – see it here.
• Dakota Fanning has finally been confirmed to star in New Moon, as Jane.  For those of us who haven’t read the novels, that means nothing. For those of you who have read the novels, get a life.
• Malin Akerman (Watchmen, 27 Dresses) and Ryan Phillippe (I Know What You Did Last Summer, Crash) have been cast in The Bang Bang Club.
• Watchmen made just shy of $56 million on its opening weekend.  Putting it high atop this weekend’s box office charts.  Based on feedback of my valued comic-book loving friends, the movie doesn’t do the graphic novel any justice, and thus I’ll be steering clear of it.
• A new (and awesomely OCD) poster for Order of Chaos surfaced.  Check it out below.

Order of Chaos

Hopefully the faster and more stable site will make it worth the lack of updates over the weekend.

As you may have read earlier this week, the director of Twilight was dropped, for reasons unknown.

The rumor is that Catherine Hardwick (Twilight‘s director) was a pain in the ass throughout filming, so the studio dropped her.

They announced late last night, that Chris Weitz (director of The Golden Compass) has been signed to direct the sequel to Twilight, New Moon.
